Seminomatous germ cell tumours (SGCT) are the most frequent malignancy in young men. Reliable prognostic biomarkers for the prediction of metastasis at diagnosis and the risk of relapse in clinical stage I (CSI) are lacking. Adjuvant therapies carry a risk of overtreatment, whereas salvage therapies have a risk of high toxicities. Thus, the identification of reliable prognostic biomarkers is highly desirable to identify patients who will benefit from early adjuvant treatment. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) regulate tumour development and progression, and their potential as biomarkers has already been proven in a variety of malignancies.
