In the 1970s , nearly one in three people will die of testicular cancer in the UK , but now the survival rate has increased to 96 percent . Secrets of success in improving the survival rate can be attributed in part to the use of a drug called Cisplatin , according to some experts .The drug is a very small molecule with a central platinum and two molecules of ammonium chloride and two attached to it . When it is injected into the body - because it is neutral - it is able to cross cell membranes and enter the cells , said Dr Charlotte Willans from the University of Leeds , who with his colleagues monitor the effectiveness of drugs used in the treatment of cancer .can prevent the spread of cancer Basically Cisplatin DNA cross links and stop of replication ,  In the DNA of healthy cells can often repair itself through the DNA repair enzyme but cancer can not do . So the following can not replicate and undergo programmed cell death . "A pile of white pills

Side effects include vomiting , kidney and nerve damage and hearing loss .
