Brief Summary: RATIONALE Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die Combining more than one drug may kill more tumor cells

PURPOSE Phase III trial to study the effectiveness of combination chemotherapy consisting of paclitaxel cisplatin and ifosfamide in treating patients who have ovarian or testicular germ cell tumors that are refractory to platinum-containing chemotherapy
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES

Determine the toxicity and optimal dose of paclitaxel when combined with cisplatin and ifosfamide in patients with germ cell tumors with favorable prognostic features and resistance to cisplatin
Determine the efficacy of this regimen as salvage therapy in these patients

OUTLINE This is a dose escalation study of paclitaxel

Patients receive paclitaxel IV continuously on day 1 and cisplatin IV over 20 minutes and ifosfamide IV over 30 minutes on days 2-6 Filgrastim G-CSF is administered subcutaneously SC on days 7-18 or until blood counts recover Treatment continues every 3 weeks for 4 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity

Cohorts of 3-6 patients receive escalating doses of paclitaxel until the maximum tolerated dose MTD is determined The MTD is defined as the dose preceding that at which 3 of 6 patients experience dose-limiting toxicity Additional patients receive paclitaxel at the MTD

After completion of chemotherapy some patients may undergo resection of residual masses

PROJECTED ACCRUAL A total of 18-43 patients will be accrued for this study within 2 years
