Inclusion Criteria

1. Histologic verification of a primary extracranial germ cell tumour (GCT) as outlined in any of the categories outline in the protocol.
2. Performance status corresponding to ECOG scores of 0, 1, 2 or 3. (Use Karnofsky for patients > 16 years of age and Lansky for patients = 16 years of age).
3. For the low Risk Stratum patients must be < 50 years of age at enrolment.
4. For Standard Risk 1 patients must be < 11 years of age at enrolment.
5. For Standard Risk 2 patients must be = 11 and < 25 years of age at enrolment.
6. For patients receiving chemotherapy (SR1 and SR2):
a) Patients must have adequate renal function defined as; creatinine clearance or radioisotope GFR =70 mL/min/1.73 m2 or a serum creatinine based on age/gender as defined in the protocol.
b) Patients must have adequate liver function defined as total bilirubin < or = 1.5 x upper limit of normal (ULN) for age, and – AST or ALT < 2.5 x upper limit of normal (ULN) for age (for the purpose of this study, the ULN for ALT is 45 U/L).
c) Patients must have adequate pulmonary function defined as no evidence of dyspnoea at rest, no exercise intolerance, and a pulse oximetry > 94%. Pulmonary Function Tests are not required.

Patients with any diagnoses not listed in the inclusion criteria of the protocol including: Pure dysgerminoma and pure seminoma, Pure mature teratoma, Pure immature teratoma COG Stage II - IV or FIGO Stage IC to IV, Poor risk” GCT (age = 11 years old and COG Stage IV ovarian, COG Stage III or IV EG, or IGCCC intermediate or poor risk testicular, or Primary CNS germ cell tumour).
2. Elevation of serum tumour markers without histologic confirmation.
3. Had no prior systemic therapy.
4. Had no prior radiation therapy except for CNS irradiation of brain metastases.
5. Patients with significant respiratory compromise due to either abdominal tumour limiting diaphragmatic excursion or pulmonary metastases.
6. Pregnancy and Breast Feeding - These criteria apply ONLY to patients who will receive chemotherapy (SR1 and SR2 patients):
a) Female patients who are pregnant.
b) Lactating females who plan to breastfeed their infants.
c) Sexually active patients of reproductive potential who have not agreed to use an effective contraceptive method for the duration of their study participation.
