Have you heard about plicamycin? It has some historical success for testicular germ cells. Not approved in US but maybe Germany. It fell out fashion after platinum drugs were developed.

The last manufacturer of plicamycin shut down production in 2000... and it sounds like OP is too far gone with the number of organs that now have tumors.

Boo. Yeah looks like only non-medical companies still manufacture it. It has shown efficacy in metastatic testicular disease though. Also prostate cancer and Ewing sarcoma.
