We carried out electrical resistivity and X-ray diffraction (XRD) studies on the filled skutterudite superconductors LaPt4Ge12 and PrPt4Ge12 under hydrostatic pressure. The superconducting transition temperature Tc is linearly suppressed upon increasing pressure, though the effect of pressure on Tc is rather weak. From the analysis of the XRD data, we obtain bulk moduli of B=106 GPa and B=83 GPa for LaPt4Ge12 and PrPt4Ge12, respectively. The knowledge of the bulk modulus allows us to compare the dependence of Tc on the unit-cell volume from our pressure study directly with that found in the substitution series La1-xPrxPt4Ge12. We find that application of hydrostatic pressure can be characterized mainly as a volume effect in LaPt4Ge12 and PrPt4Ge12, while substitution of Pr for La in La1-xPrxPt4Ge12 yields features going beyond a simple picture.
