Hipec Gastric Cancer

BACKGROUND: Hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) produces unwanted side-effects that are mainly caused by chemotherapeutic drugs in the treatment of gastrointestinal (GI) cancers, and these effects have not been systematically summarized. The aim of this article was to provide a comprehensive overview of the side-effects of HIPEC for GI cancers and propose practical strategies for adverse event management. METHODOLOGY: PubMed, Web of Science, and the Cochrane Library were systematically searched for side-effects of HIPEC in GI cancers prior to October 20, 2022...

BACKGROUND: The peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC) secondary to gastrointestinal or gynecological cancer has increased its incidence. It has a worse prognosis compared to other sites of metastasis. The peritoneal carcinomatosis index (PCI) establishes overall survival in patients with gastrointestinal or gynecological tumors and carcinomatosis. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the relationship of PCI to overall survival (OS) and recurrence-free survival (RFS) in patients treated with cytoreductive surgery (CRS) plus hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC)...

(1) Background: The prognosis of gastric cancer-associated peritoneal carcinomatosis (GCPC) is poor, with a median survival time of less than six months, and current systemic chemotherapy, including targeted therapy, is ineffective. Despite growing evidence that cytoreductive surgery with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (CRS-HIPEC) for GCPC improves overall survival (OS), optimal patient selection remains unclear. We aimed to evaluate preoperative clinical factors and identify indicative factors for predicting postoperative OS in patients with GCPC undergoing CRS-HIPEC...

INTRODUCTION: Over the past two decades, cytoreductive surgery and HIPEC has improved outcomes for selected patients with peritoneal metastasis from various origins. This is a cross-sectional study with descriptive analyses of HIPEC trials registered on ClinicalTrials.gov. This study aimed to characterize clinical trials on HIPEC registered on ClinicalTrials.gov with the primary objective of identifying a trial focus and to examine whether trial results were published. METHODS: The search included trials registered from 1 January 2001 to 14 March 2022...

INTRODUCTION: Patients with advanced gastric adenocarcinoma are at high risk of malnutrition. Some patients benefit from total gastrectomy associated with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) with or without cytoreduction surgery (CR) as a curative strategy. The aim of this study was to describe pre- and post-operative nutritional assessments and their impact on survival in these patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS: All patients with advanced gastric adenocarcinoma treated with gastrectomy and HIPEC with or without CR at Lyon University Hospital were retrospectively included from April 2012 to August 2017...

OBJECTIVE: To explore the clinical safety and efficacy of single and multiple applications of lobaplatin-based hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) for patients with T4 gastric cancer and to evaluate the impact of HIPEC on peritoneal metastasis. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed prospectively collected data from T4 gastric cancer patients who underwent radical gastric resection plus HIPEC between March 2018 and August 2020 from the National Cancer Center and Huangxing Cancer Hospital...

Gastric cancer (GC) has a poor prognostic and only one in four patients will have survived by 5 years after diagnosis. These poor results are due to the fact that most patients are diagnosed in advanced stages; peritoneal metastases (PM) are especially frequent and are difficult to treat. Currently, PM are considered a terminal stage of GC with a poor survival rate and are treated with palliative systemic chemotherapy. Since the beginning of the century, the treatment of PM from different origins has evolved; cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) have become the treatment of choice for many malignant diseases that affect the peritoneum...

Background: Peritoneal metastasis (PM) is an advanced stage of intra-abdominal malignancy with a very poor prognosis. In recent years, hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) combined with cytoreductive surgery (CRS) has been utilized as an active treatment in the prevention and treatment of PM, with encouraging results. However, compared with CRS alone, the results of the CRS plus HIPEC strategy in the treatment of patients with intra-abdominal malignancies are still controversial. This study sought to determine the impact of HIPEC + CRS on patient survival and adverse events (AEs) by reviewing randomized controlled trials (RCTs) for all types of intra-abdominal malignancies...

Cytoreductive surgery with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (CRS/HIPEC) has been increasingly utilized for peritoneal surface malignancies. This has been commonly utilized for a variety of neoplasms, but, especially mucinous neoplasms of the appendix, ovarian cancer, gastric cancer, colorectal cancer and mesothelioma. Traditionally, CRS/HIPEC has been performed as an open, extensive operation associated with prolonged hospitalization. However, when the peritoneal carcinomatosis index (PCI) is small (<10), minimally invasive approaches can be considered...

BACKGROUND: Studies from Asia indicate that normothermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (NIPEC) may confer survival benefit in patients with gastric peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC). However, data regarding this approach is lacking in western population. The current STOPGAP trial is intended to assess 1-year progression-free survival benefit of sequential systemic chemotherapy and paclitaxel NIPEC in patients with gastric/ gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) adenocarcinoma PC. METHODS: This is a prospective, single center, single arm, phase II investigator-initiated clinical trial...

INTRODUCTION: CytoReductive Surgery (CRS) followed by Hyperthermic IntraPeritoneal Chemotherapy (HIPEC) is an often used strategy in treating patients diagnosed with peritoneal metastasis (PM) originating from various origins such as gastric, colorectal and ovarian. During HIPEC treatments, a heated chemotherapeutic solution is circulated through the abdomen using several inflow and outflow catheters. Due to the complex geometry and large peritoneal volume, thermal heterogeneities can occur resulting in an unequal treatment of the peritoneal surface...

The peritoneum is a common site for the dissemination of digestive malignancies, particularly gastric, colorectal, appendix, or pancreatic cancer. Other tumors such as cholangiocarcinomas, digestive neuroendocrine tumors, or gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) may also associate with peritoneal surface metastases (PSM). Peritoneal dissemination is proven to worsen the prognosis of these patients. Cytoreductive surgery (CRS), along with systemic chemotherapy, have been shown to constitute a survival benefit in selected patients with PSM...

INTRODUCTION: This study examined the difference in overall survival (OS) between peritoneal metastatic gastric cancer (PMGC) patients who underwent neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by cytoreductive surgery ± hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (CRS ± HIPEC) and those who did not have surgery but instead received palliative chemotherapy. METHODS: This retrospective study included 80 patients who were followed up with the diagnosis of PMGC, those undergoing neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by CRS ± HIPEC (CRS ± HIPEC group) and those receiving chemotherapy only (non-surgical group), in the medical oncology clinic between April 2011 and December 2021...

Peritoneal tumours have a large population and a poor prognosis with limited therapeutic options available, and are common originated from gastric, colorectal, appendix and other cancers. Traditionally, peritoneal tumours have long been considered to be a terminal condition with a median survival of 3-6 months, and the palliative symptomatic treatment is recommended. Recently, the multimodal therapeutic strategy of cytoreductive surgery (CRS) combined with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) has resulted in more effective on the prevention and treatment of peritoneal metastasis, which can significantly improve the survival and quality of life...

Enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) program refers to a multimodal intervention to reduce the length of stay and postoperative complications; it has been effective in different kinds of major surgery including colorectal, gynaecologic and gastric cancer surgery. Its impact in terms of safety and efficacy in the treatment of peritoneal surface malignancies is still unclear. A systematic review and a meta-analysis were conducted to evaluate the effect of ERAS after cytoreductive surgery with or without HIPEC for peritoneal metastases...

OBJECTIVE: To explore the clinical efficacy of lobaplatin-based prophylactic hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) for patients with T4 gastric cancer after surgery and to evaluate its impact on survival. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Data on patients with T4 gastric cancer who underwent radical gastric resection between March 2016 and August 2017 were collected from the National Cancer Center and Huangxing Cancer Hospital. Enrolled patients were divided into two groups according to receiving or not receiving HIPEC...

UNLABELLED: In 1998, the Peritoneal Surface Oncology Group International(PSOGI)proposed a novel treatment referred to as comprehensive treatment(COMPT). COMPT involves the complete removal of macroscopic tumors(cytoreductive surgery: CRS) and eradication of micrometastasis(MM)with neoadjuvant chemotherapy(NAC)plus intraoperative hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy(HIPEC). This article provides a rationale for curative COMPT. Additionally, based on our experience, the selection criteria for treatment will be clarified...

BACKGROUND: Cytoreductive surgery (CRS) combined with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) promised to transform the management of peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC). Forty years since the introduction of the technique, published data from randomized controlled trials (RCTs) remain scarce. We assessed the cumulative comprehensive available evidence on the use of HIPEC in gastrointestinal (GI) and biliary tract malignancies and established the current benchmark for GI HIPEC research in both the prevention and treatment of peritoneal metastases...

BACKGROUND: Cisplatin (CDDP)-containing hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) is frequently applied in selected patients with peritoneal malignancies derived from ovarian cancer, gastric cancer, and primary peritoneal mesothelioma. HIPEC with CDDP increases perioperative morbidity, in particular by inducing acute kidney injury (AKI). Factors contributing to occurrence of AKI after intraperitoneal perfusion with CDDP have not been sufficiently evaluated. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Data from 63 patients treated with a CDDP-containing HIPEC regimen were retrospectively analyzed concerning demographics, underlying disease, surgery, and HIPEC details to evaluate risk factors of AKI...
