Description:
3 Cycles of EP chemotherapy, administred every 3 weeks following standard practice
Arm group label:
ARM C
Summary:
Phase II, multicenter, prospective, randomized, non-comparative, de-escalation study.
Patients with stage IIa/IIb < 3 cm seminoma histologically proved after orchiectomy will
be included in the study and will receive 1 cycle of Etoposide Cisplatine (EP)
chemotherapy.
Patients with negative week-3 PET-scan after the EP cycle, will be randomized (1:1 ratio,
stratification according to the disease stage (stage IIa versus IIb seminoma)) to receive
either radiotherapy (RT) boost on lymph nodes or 1 cycle of carboplatin AUC7
chemotherapy.
Patients with positive week-3 PET-scan will received 3 additional cycles of EP
chemotherapy.
In parallel, eligible patients scheduled to receive standard lombo-aortic RT will be
registered in an observational cohort.
Detailed description:
Stage II seminoma is defined by the presence of retroperitoneal lymph node metastases. It
concerns approximately 15% of patients with seminoma. The standard treatment for patients
with stage IIa/b seminoma, after orchiectomy, is extended lumbo-aortic/ipsilateral iliac
radiotherapy (RT). Performing chemotherapy (CT) with 3 courses of
Bleomycin-Etoposide-Cisplatin (BEP) or 4 courses of Etoposide-Cisplatin (EP) is an
alternative.
The optimal treatment choice remains controversial. Both treatment modalities are
associated with excellent efficacy but also acute and late toxicities. European Society
of Medical Oncology (ESMO) guidelines recommended in equal measure CT and RT for stage
IIa. A recent systematic review concluded that RT and cisplatin-based combination CT are
equally effective in clinical stage IIa/IIb seminoma, with a trend in favor of
chemotherapy in stage IIb because of lower relapse rate. However, due to the rarity of
stage II seminoma, a sufficiently powered randomized trial comparing radiotherapy with
chemotherapy is unlikely to be completed.
De-escalation strategies are required to minimize acute and long-term toxicities while
maintaining efficacy. De-escalated treatment for seminoma patients with stage IIb/IIC/III
and good prognosis according to International Germ Cell Cancer Collaborative Group
(IGCCCG), based on negative PET after 2 cycles of EP chemotherapy, is feasible and safe
according to SEMITEP results (cohort 2). In case of negative PET, 1 additional cycle of
CT with carboplatin AUC7 was administered.
Furthermore, serum levels of microRNA (miR)-371a-3p (miRNA-M371) have been significantly
associated with clinical stage, primary tumor size and response to treatment in
testicular germ cell tumors, with sensitivity and specificity higher than those of
classic markers (hCGt, LDH). However, further evaluations are needed before modifying
clinical practices.
We propose to conduct a multicenter, prospective, randomized, non-comparative,
de-escalation phase II study in patients with stage IIa/IIb seminoma < 3 cm, evaluating:
- a more de-escalated CT treatment: 1 cycle of EP followed, in case of negative PET,
by either a boost of RT on lymph node or 1 cycle of carboplatin AUC7
- the biomarker miRNA-M371 in therapeutic decision and correlation with PET.
In parallel, eligible patients scheduled to receive standard lombo-aortic RT will be
registered in an observational cohort.
Criteria for eligibility:
Criteria:
Inclusion criteria :
1. Age ≥ 18 years on the day of signing informed consent.
2. Primary testicular seminomatous germ cell tumor.
3. Stage IIa/IIb < 3 cm in largest diameter seminoma, histologically proved after
orchiectomy.
4. Confirmation of a progressive disease (positive PET scan or increase of lymph nodes
size by two successive CT scan).
5. Good prognosis according to IGCCCG and LDH < 2.5 x Upper Limit of Normal (ULN).
6. Normal alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) before and after orchiectomy.
7. No prior treatment with radiotherapy or chemotherapy.
8. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance Status (PS) ≤ 2.
9. Adequate bone-marrow, hepatic, and renal functions with:
- Neutrophils ≥ 1.5 x Giga/l, platelets ≥ 100 x Giga/l,
- Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) ≤ 1,5 x
ULN,
- Serum creatinine < 140 µmol/l OR calculated clearance > 60 ml/min (using either
Cockcroft-Gault formula or Modification of Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD) for >
65 years old),
- Direct and total bilirubin ≤ ULN.
10. Willingness and ability to comply with scheduled visits, treatment plans, laboratory
tests, and other study procedures.
11. Accepting to use effective contraceptive measures or abstain from heterosexual
activity, for the course of the study and through 12 months after the last dose of
chemotherapy or being surgically sterile. All patients should seek advice regarding
cryoconservation of sperm prior treatment initiation because of the possibility of
infertility
12. Affiliation to a health insurance.
13. Signed and dated informed consent.
Non-exclusion criteria :
1. Extra-retroperitoneal metastasis on Computed tomography scan (CT scan).
2. Infection by Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV), or active infection with the
Hepatitis B or C virus.

cancer (basal cell).
4. Uncontrolled or severe cardiovascular pathology.
5. Uncontrolled or severe hepatic pathology.
6. Patient deprived of liberty or requiring tutorship or curatorship.
7. Psychological, physical, sociological, or geographical conditions that would limit
compliance with study protocol requirements (at the investigator's discretion).
