| Popis: | In the SFOP TC-90 and TC-92 protocols, patients with intracranial germinomas and secreting germ cell tumours (sGCT) were treated with a combination of chemotherapy and focal radiotherapy. One chemotherapy cycle included alternating Carboplatin-VP16 and Ifosfamide-VP16. Germinoma patients received two cycles followed by 40 Gy focal radiotherapy, and sGCT three or four cycles followed by focal 55 Gy. Metastatic patients received craniospinal radiotherapy. |
