A member asked:
Does 2xbep chemo is enough for non-seminoma (embrional with yolk sac tumor) with clear scan, little elevated bhcg (25) and normal afp or should 3xbep?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It depends: It depends on the total number of bep cycles already given. Most patients are treated with a total of 3(low risk patients) or 4 cycles of bep for high risk(bulky disease). The general rule if to use 2 more cycles after achieving a complete response(cr).
