Study Summary

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as paclitaxel, ifosfamide, carboplatin, and etoposide work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing them or by stopping them from dividing. Giving chemotherapy with a peripheral stem cell transplant may allow more chemotherapy to be given so that more tumor cells are killed. The design of this trial is a phase I/II trial of sequential accelerated chemotherapy cycles with taxol/ifosfamide and carboplatin/etoposide administered with G-CSF and PBSC support. PURPOSE: The purpose of this study is to determine the effects of an intensive sequence of chemotherapy drugs in patients with metastatic germ cell cancer. All of these chemotherapy drugs are known to be active in this disease.

Primary Outcome

Overall Objective Response will be assessed prior to dose-intensive therapy and at the completion of therapy. Complete disappearance of all clinical, radiographic and biochemical (normal AFP and HCG) evidence of disease for a minimum of 4 weeks (CR to chemotherapy). Patients must be free of disease for a minimum of 4 weeks. Partial Response: Complete disappearance of all biochemical evidence of disease in patients without a surgical procedure for a residual radiographic mass. Patients must demon
