ESMO Consensus Conference on testicular germ cell cancer: diagnosis, treatment and follow-up

TL;DR: The aim of the conference was to develop detailed recommendations on topics relating to testicular cancer that are not covered in detail in the current ESMO Clinical Practice Guidelines (CPGs) and where the available level of evidence is insufficient.

A Nationwide Cohort Study of Stage I Seminoma Patients Followed on a Surveillance Program

TL;DR: In the world's largest study of stage I seminoma patients, surveillance was found to be a safe alternative to adjuvant therapies and tumor size was a significant factor for relapse.

The genomic landscape of testicular germ cell tumours: from susceptibility to treatment

TL;DR: Understanding of the genomic basis of TGCT offers a clear opportunity for clinical benefit in terms of preventing invasive cancer arising in young men, decreasing the burden of chemotherapy-related survivorship issues and reducing mortality in the minority of patients who have treatment-refractory disease.

International germ cell consensus classification: A prognostic factor-erased staging system for metastatic germ cell cancers

TL;DR: An easily applicable, clinically based, prognostic classification for GCT has been agreed on between all the major clinical trial groups who are presently active worldwide and should be used in clinical practice and in the design and reporting of clinical trials to aid international collaboration and understanding.

Radiotherapy versus single-dose carboplatin in adjuvant treatment of stage I seminoma: a randomised trial

TL;DR: This trial has shown the non-inferiority of carboplatin to radiotherapy in the treatment of stage I seminoma, although the absence of disease-related deaths and preliminary data indicating fewer second primary testicular germ-cell tumours favourcarboplatin use, these findings need to be confirmed beyond 4 years' follow-up.
