General Information
Disease Group:GenitourinarySupported By:N/A
Phase of Study:Phase IIReturn
Visit:
Patients will be seen every week on chemotherapy and every 3 months x 2 years
and every 6 months thereafter, after completion of their combined modality
therapy.
Treatment
Agents:
Cisplatin
Ifosfamide
Paclitaxel
Home Care:Patients may receive chemotherapy, administration, weekly CBC, weekly
Creatinine, and weekly electrolytes at home.
Treatment Loc:Only at MDACC
Estimated
Length of Stay
in Houston:
This is an inpatient 3-4 day chemotherapy treatment q 21 days x 4, then
inpatient hospitalization is required for the surgery.
Description/
Intervention:
The goal of this clinical research study is to see if giving chemotherapy
before surgery can make the surgery more effective. Another goal is to see if
this can stop the cancer from spreading to other parts of the body. The safety
of this treatment will also be studied.

Study Objectives / Outcomes
1. To evaluate the feasibility and efficacy of multimodality treatment (neoadjuvant chemotherapy prior to extirpative surgery) for clinical stage TXN2-3M0 squamous cell carcinoma of the penis.
