Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Treatment: Drugs - cisplatin
Treatment: Drugs - etoposide
Treatment: Other - bleomycin sulfate
Other interventions - laboratory biomarker analysis

Experimental: Arm I - Patients enrolled with gonadal tumors of stage II or greater or extragonadal tumors of any stage receive cisplatin IV over 90 minutes \& etoposide IV over 90 minutes days 1-3 and bleomycin sulfate IV over = 10 minutes day 1. Treatment repeats every 3 weeks, 3 courses (weeks 0,3 \& 6).

After completion of compressed induction chemotherapy, patients with no change in disease status or disease progression are removed from study. Patients with no evidence of disease receive no further therapy. Patients with a partial response or abnormal tumor markers proceed to conventional surgery (second-look) and/or 3 more courses of compressed consolidation chemotherapy.

After surgery, patients with pathologic complete response and have normal tumor markers receive no further therapy. Patients who remain with a partial response after surgery receive compressed consolidation chemotherapy.

Patients receive cisplatin, etoposide, and bleomycin as induction chemotherapy in weeks 10,13, \& 16.

No intervention: Arm 2 - Patients who are enrolled with stage I gonadal tumors receive no further anticancer therapy until evidence of tumor recurrence or the diagnosis of a second malignant neoplasm.

Observation only for recurrence or development of an SMN

Eligibility
Key inclusion criteria
* Extracranial germ cell tumor that contains 1 of the following malignant histologies: NOTE: Mixed germ cell tumors that include mature/immature teratoma are eligible provided 1 of the 3 histologies listed above is also present in the tumor.

* Yolk sac tumor
* Embryonal carcinoma
* Choriocarcinoma
* Low-risk disease (closed to accrual as of 01/20/10)

* Stage I gonadal tumors (ovarian and testicular)
* Must have undergone complete surgical and radiologic staging to exclude the possibility of > stage I disease
* Intermediate-risk disease

* Stage II, III, or IV malignant testicular GCT
* Stage II or III malignant ovarian GCT
* Stage I or II malignant extragonadal GCT
* Previously stage I gonadal patients who have relapsed on the low-risk (observation) stratum of this study(closed to accrual as of 01/20/10)
* Patients with immature teratoma or mature teratoma who relapse with a malignant component
* No patients with any of the following diagnoses:

* Stage IV ovarian and stage III-IV extragonadal GCT
* Intracranial GCT
* Pure mature or immature teratoma, pure dysgerminoma, or seminoma
* Patients with a non-germ cell component in their GCT (e.g., primitive neuroectodermal tumors or rhabdomyosarcoma)
* Alpha-fetoprotein and beta human chorionic gonadotropin tumor markers known

* If > 5 days have elapsed from the time of obtaining original markers, tumor markers must be repeated before enrollment of low-risk patients and before initiating therapy in intermediate-risk patients (the results of the repeated tumor markers do not have to be known at the time of study enrollment)
* Must be enrolled within 6 weeks of original diagnostic surgery
* Creatinine clearance or radioisotope GFR = 70 mL/min OR a serum creatinine based on age/gender as follows:

* = 0.4 mg/dL (for patients 1 to 5 months of age)
* = 0.5 mg/dL (for patients 6 to 11 months of age)
* = 0.6 mg/dL (for patients 1 year of age)
* = 0.8 mg/dL (for patients 2 to 5 years of age)
* = 1.0 mg/dL (for patients 6 to 9 years of age)
* = 1.2 mg/dL (for patients 10 to 12 years of age)
* = 1.4 mg/dL (for female patients = 13 years of age)
* = 1.5 mg/dL (for male patients 13 to 15 years of age)
* = 1.7 mg/dL (for male patients = 16 years of age)
* No prior chemotherapy
* No prior radiotherapy
