Özet
Amaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı testis tümörü hastalarında serum gama-glutamil transpeptidaz düzeyinin özellikle seminomatöz alt tipteki hastalıkta bir biyobelirteç olarak kullanılabilirliğinin, mevcut kullanımda olan biyobelirteçlere üstünlüğünün araştırılması ile sisplatin temelli kemoterapi alan hastalarda serum gama-glutamil transpeptidaz seviyelerinin kemoterapi yanıtı, devamı ve nefrotoksisitedeki rollerini incelemektir.
