About the trial

What the trial wants to find out

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the diagnostic performance of circulating microRNAs in detecting the presence of germ cell cancer in patients with small testicular mass or retroperitoneal post-chemotherapy residual mass and suitable for testis sparing surgery and retroperitoneal lymph node dissection, respectively.

The 2 groups in the trial

  • A

    Small testicular mass suitable for testis sparing surgery.

    Treatment: Circulating microRNAs.

  • B

    Retroperitoneal post-chemotherapy residual mass suitable for retroperitoneal lymph node dissection.

    Treatment: Circulating microRNAs.

Questions to ask the study team

  1. How often do I need to come in, and for how long each time?
  2. Are travel costs paid?
  3. Can I keep my own doctor?
  4. What happens if I want to stop?
