🎓Key Contributions 主要贡献

GCT Salvage Chemotherapy

Conducted landmark European trials comparing conventional vs. high-dose salvage chemotherapy (IT-94, TIGER trial), defining optimal salvage strategy for relapsed GCTs.

GCT Molecular Biology and Drug Resistance

Investigated mechanisms of cisplatin resistance in GCTs including TP53, miRNA-371, and epigenetic factors, contributing to biomarker discovery and novel therapeutic targets.

European GCT Guideline Development

Core contributor to ESMO and German GCT guidelines, standardizing treatment algorithms across Europe and coordinating multinational collaborative research.
