Abstract
Peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC) of gastric origin is currently recognized as a terminal disease with a poor prognosis. Advancements in novel therapeutic approaches, including intraperitoneal chemotherapy (IPC), have recently been made and it is believed that this may have contributed to the improved survival observed in patients with PC. The present study aimed to investigate overall survival (OS) and the associated prognostic factors in patients with PC of gastric origin who underwent IPC. A total of 57 patients were studied, with a median age of 51 years. The median follow-up time was 12.4 months. PC was diagnosed in all patients with gastric cancer. The median survival time of all patients was 10.1 months, whilst the OS rate at 1, 2 and 3 years was observed to be 46, 19 and 12%, respectively. Symptomatic ascites and a signet ring cell (SRC) histopathological type were demonstrated to signify a poor prognosis. Complete resection of all gross disease (CCR-0) and an increased number of cycles of systemic chemotherapy were independent factors that were observed to correlate with increased OS. The most common morbidities of grade 3/4 adverse effects were bone marrow suppression, nausea or vomiting, and diarrhea. In conclusion, IPC is an important treatment option for patients with PC that has originated from gastric cancer. Symptomatic ascites and SRC adenocarcinoma serve as negative clinicopathological prognostic factors, whilst CCR-0 and increased systemic chemotherapy cycles (≥4 cycles) may prove to be an important therapeutic option for PC patients.

Safety and feasibility of pressurized intraperitoneal aerosol chemotherapy (PIPAC) associated with systemic chemotherapy: an innovative approach to treat peritoneal carcinomatosis. World J Surg Oncol 2016; 14:128. [PMID: 27125996 PMCID: PMC4850728 DOI: 10.1186/s12957-016-0892-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 95] [Impact Index Per Article: 11.9] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/05/2016] [Accepted: 04/21/2016] [Indexed: 12/29/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Pressurized intraperitoneal aerosol chemotherapy (PIPAC) is a new treatment that applies chemotherapeutic drugs into the peritoneal cavity as an aerosol under pressure. It improves local bioavailability of chemotherapeutic drugs as compared with conventional intraperitoneal chemotherapy. It has been proved to be safe and feasible if performed as an exclusive treatment in patients affected by peritoneal carcinomatosis. The first results in patients treated with PIPAC associated with systemic chemotherapy are presented. Methods Between June 2015 and February 2016, 57 PIPAC applications with oxaliplatin or cisplatin + doxorubicin every 6 weeks at 37 °C and 12 mmHg for 30 min were performed. Forty PIPAC procedures performed in 14 patients were included in this study; thirteen patients were undergoing systemic chemotherapy with a wash-out interval of at least 2 weeks before and 1 week after each PIPAC. Safety, tolerability, and postoperative complications were assessed by collection of adverse events according to the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) 2. Results Forty PIPAC administrations were performed in 14 patients with no major perioperative complications. CTCAE grades 1 and 2 were observed after six and eight procedures, respectively, for abdominal pain and nausea. Renal and hepatic functions were not impaired; no cumulative renal toxicity was observed after repeated PIPAC procedures in association with systemic chemotherapy. Conclusions These preliminary data show that the association of PIPAC and systemic chemotherapy does not induce significant hepatic and renal toxicity. It allows inclusion of patients with extraperitoneal disease or at a high risk of developing it. Further studies are needed to assess whether this combination therapy could become part of the standard treatment for peritoneal carcinomatosis.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The most common cause of tumour progression in advanced gastric cancer is peritoneal carcinosis (PC). The necessity to increase the survival in advanced diseases suggested to deliver the chemotherapy directly in the peritoneal cavity also in Cy+/PC- and to experiment the effect of massive peritoneal lavage to wash out the tumour cells. The aim of this study is to investigate the gain in term of survival and peritoneal recurrence rate of the intraperitoneal chemotherapy and/or peritoneal lavage in patients with Cy+/PC-. MATERIAL AND METHODS A systematic review with meta-analysis of trials about the effect of intraperitoneal chemotherapy (IPC) and/or peritoneal lavage (PL) on positive cytology in gastric cancer without carcinosis. RESULTS Three trials have been included (164 patients: 76 received surgery alone, 51 surgery + IPC and 37 surgery + IPC + PL). Two- and five-years survival is increased by IPC (RR = 1.62, RR = 3.10). 2 and 5 years survival is further increased by IPC + PL (RR = 2.33, RR = 6.19). Peritoneal recurrence is reduced by IPC (OR = 0.45) and by IPC + PL (OR = 0.13). CONCLUSIONS Two- and five-years overall survival in patients with free cancer cells without carcinosis is incremented by intraperitoneal chemotherapy. Peritoneal lavage further increases these survival rates and also it further decreases the peritoneal recurrence rate.

Abstract
Distant metastasis is the predominant pattern of gastric cancer (GC) recurrence, and is the most common cause of cancer‑associated mortality. Accumulating evidence has suggested that aberrant activation of epithelial‑mesenchymal transition has a crucial role in the genesis, invasion and metastasis of various types of cancer, including GC. Using Cell Counting kit‑8 and Transwell assays, the effects of microRNA (miR)‑205 on the proliferation, migration and invasion of NCI‑H87 GC cells were determined, and the potential underlying mechanisms were explored. The results of the present study demonstrated that miR‑205, which has been reported to function as a tumor suppressor in various types of cancer, significantly suppressed the migration and invasion of GC cells, which may be correlated with its suppressive effects on EMT. Upon transfection with miR‑205, the epithelial marker CDH1 (E‑cadherin) was upregulated, and the mesenchymal markers CDH2 (N‑cadherin) and vimentin were suppressed. Furthermore, zinc‑finger E‑box‑binding homeobox factor‑1 (ZEB1) was identified as a putative target gene of miR‑205 in GC, which may be associated with its suppressive effects. The results of the present study may provide novel diagnostic and therapeutic options for the treatment of human GC.

No impact on long-term survival of prolonged ICU stay and re-admission for patients undergoing cytoreductive surgery with HIPEC. Eur J Surg Oncol 2016; 42:855-60. [PMID: 27061789 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejso.2016.03.004] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/10/2015] [Revised: 02/27/2016] [Accepted: 03/04/2016] [Indexed: 02/07/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and Hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) are promising new approaches of peritoneal metastases. However these surgical procedures are associated with a high morbidity rate thus intensive care (IC) management following serious complications may be warranted for these patients. The impact of the prolonged IC stay or re-admission on long-term survival remains unknown. METHODS We retrospectively analysed 122 consecutive HIPEC procedures over a one year period (2010-2011) in a single academic hospital. We analysed complications that would lead to prolonged stay or re-admission into ICU and analysed long term follow-up in patients whether they required intensive care (ICU group) or not (Control group). RESULTS ICU group represented 26.2% of the cohort mainly due to septic or haemorrhagic shock. Among them acute kidney injury and respiratory failure were present in 50% and 47% respectively. Cohort overall mortality rate was of 5.7%. Patients were followed for 4 years and survival analysis was performed adjusting for main confounding factors in a Cox survival model. Survival was not different between groups, with a median survival of 38 months [32; 44] vs. 33 months [26; 39] in the ICU group and Control group respectively. CONCLUSION Prolonged stay or re-admission into ICU does not seem to statistically impact long term prognosis of patients undergoing CRS with HIPEC.

Abstract
Peritoneal spread of tumors is a major problem in cancer management. Patients develop a marked deterioration in quality of life and shortened survival. This is in part due to bowel obstructions, marked ascites, and overall increase debilitation. Standard medical management has shown to be inadequate for the treatment of these problems. Surgery can palliate symptoms, however, it is unable to be complete at the microscopic level by a significant spillage of tumor cells throughout the abdomen. Chemotherapy can have some improvement in symptoms however it is short lived due to poor penetration into the peritoneal cavity. The role of intraperitoneal chemotherapy is to maximize tumor penetration and optimize cell death while minimizing systemic toxicity. Hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) and early post-operative intraperitoneal chemotherapy (EPIC) are two treatment methods that serve this role and have been shown to improve survival. This review will discuss different chemotherapies used for both of these treatment options.

Abstract
PURPOSE Krukenberg tumor is a rare type of ovarian cancer with a poor prognosis, and little is known about its behavior during pregnancy. METHODS A systematic review was conducted to identify pregnancies complicated by Krukenberg tumor, correlated to oncologic and neonatal outcomes (n = 35). RESULTS Mean age of cases was 30.4 years, and the most common origin of primary cancer was the stomach (68.6 %) followed by the colon (14.3 %). The two most common presenting symptoms were abdominal/pelvic pain (51.4 %) and nausea/vomiting (48.6 %). Two-thirds of tumors were bilateral (65.7 %) and the average size was 16.7 cm. Ascites (45.7 %), carcinomatosis (25.7 %) and non-ovarian distant metastases (14.3 %) were found at the time of surgery. Chemotherapy was administered in 20 cases, with fetal exposure in two of these. The ovarian tumor was identified prior to the primary cancer diagnosis in all 28 cases. The overall number of live births was 27 (81.8 %). The median survival was 6 months after Krukenberg tumor diagnosis. In univariate analysis, decreased overall survival was associated with dyspnea, ascites, carcinomatosis, non-radical surgery for the primary cancer, and residual disease at surgery (all, p < 0.05). On multivariate analysis, dyspnea and carcinomatosis remained independent prognostic factors for decreased overall survival after Krukenberg tumor diagnosis (2-year overall survival rates, dyspnea 0 vs. 56.6 %, adjusted-hazard ratio [HR] 9.74, 95 % confidence interval [CI] 2.04-46.2, p < 0.01; and carcinomatosis, 0 vs. 58.1 %, adjusted-HR 7.95, 95 % CI 1.76-36.0, p < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS Our results showed that prognosis of Krukenberg tumor complicated pregnancies is extremely poor, however it may be improved if radical surgery is achievable.

Abstract
Peritoneal metastasis, either synchronous or metachronous, is commonly seen in gastric cancer. It is associated with a poor prognosis, with a median survival of less than one year. The outcomes are not significantly improved by the use of systemic chemotherapy. We review the relevant literature on the role of HIPEC in gastric cancer. Cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) has been used in three situations in gastric cancer. Besides its role as a definitive treatment in patients with established peritoneal metastasis (PM), it has been used as a prophylaxis against peritoneal recurrence after curative surgery and also as a palliative treatment in advanced peritoneal metastasis with intractable ascites. While prophylactic HIPEC has been shown to reduce peritoneal recurrence and improve survival in many randomised trials, palliative HIPEC can reduce the need for frequent paracentesis. Although CRS with HIPEC has shown promise in increasing the survival of selected patients with established PM from gastric cancer, larger studies are needed before this can be accepted as a standard of care.

Abstract
Gastric cancer associated peritoneal carcinomatosis (GCPC) has a poor prognosis with a median survival of less than one year. Systemic chemotherapy including targeted agents has not been found to significantly increase the survival in GCPC. Since recurrent gastric cancer remains confined to the abdominal cavity in many patients, regional therapies like aggressive cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) have been investigated for GCPC. HIPEC has been used for three indications in GC- as an adjuvant therapy after a curative surgery, HIPEC has been shown to improve survival and reduce peritoneal recurrences in many randomised trials in Asian countries; as a definitive treatment in established PC, HIPEC along with CRS is the only therapeutic modality that has resulted in long-term survival in select groups of patients; as a palliative treatment in advanced PC with intractable ascites, HIPEC has been shown to control ascites and reduce the need for frequent paracentesis. While the results of randomised trials of adjuvant HIPEC from western centres are awaited, the role of HIPEC in the treatment of GCPC is still evolving and needs larger studies before it is accepted as a standard of care.

Abstract
For a long time, treatment of peritoneal metastases (PM) was mostly palliative and thus, this status was link with “terminal status/despair”. The current multimodal treatment strategy, consisting of cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC), has been strenuously achieved over time, but seems to be the best treatment option for PM patients. As we reviewed the literature data, we could emphasize some milestones and also, controversies in the history of proposed multimodal treatment and thus, outline the philosophy of this approach, which seems to be an unusual one indeed. Initially marked by nihilism and fear, but benefiting from a remarkable joint effort of human and material resources (multi-center and -institutional research), over a period of 30 years, CRS and HIPEC found their place in the treatment of PM. The next 4 years were dedicated to the refinement of the multimodal treatment, by launching research pathways. In selected patients, with requires training, it demonstrated a significant survival results (similar to the Hepatic Metastases treatment), with acceptable risks and costs. The main debates regarding CRS and HIPEC treatment were based on the oncologists’ perspective and the small number of randomized clinical trials. It is important to statement the PM patient has the right to be informed of the existence of CRS and HIPEC, as a real treatment resource, the decision being made by multidisciplinary teams.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Peritoneal carcinomatosis is an increasingly common finding in gastric carcinoma. Previously, patients were treated as terminal, and median survival was poor. The use of cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) in this context is still highly debatable. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to evaluate the long-term outcomes associated with CRS and HIPEC, and define prognostic factors for cure, if possible. PATIENTS AND METHODS All patients with gastric carcinomatosis from five French institutions who underwent combined complete CRS and HIPEC and had a minimum follow-up of 5 years were included in this study. Cure was defined as a disease-free interval of more than 5 years from the last treatment until the last follow-up. RESULTS Of the 81 patients who underwent CRS and HIPEC from 1989 to 2009, 59 had a completeness of cytoreduction score (CCS) of 0 (complete macroscopic resection), and the median Peritoneal Cancer Index (PCI) score was 6. Mitomycin C was the most commonly used drug during HIPEC (88 %). The 5-year overall survival (OS) rate was 18 %, with nine patients still disease-free at 5 years, for a cure rate of 11 %. All 'cured' patients had a PCI score below 7 and a CCS of 0. Factors associated with improved OS on multivariate analysis were synchronous resection (p = 0.02), a lower PCI score (p = 0.12), and the CCS (p = 0.09). CONCLUSION The cure rate of 11 % for patients with gastric carcinomatosis who are deemed terminal emphasizes that CRS and HIPEC should be considered in highly selected patients (low disease extent and complete CRS).

Pressurized Intraperitoneal Aerosol Chemotherapy (PIPAC) with Low-Dose Cisplatin and Doxorubicin in Gastric Peritoneal Metastasis. J Gastrointest Surg 2016; 20:367-73. [PMID: 26511950 PMCID: PMC4722080 DOI: 10.1007/s11605-015-2995-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 139] [Impact Index Per Article: 17.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/15/2015] [Accepted: 10/13/2015] [Indexed: 01/31/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Pressurized intraperitoneal aerosol chemotherapy (PIPAC) is a novel technique of intraperitoneal chemotherapy. First results obtained with PIPAC in patients with advanced peritoneal metastasis (PM) from gastric cancer (GC) are presented. METHODS Retrospective analysis: Sixty PIPAC were applied in 24 consecutive patients with PM from GC. 67 % patients had previous surgery, and 79 % previous platinum-based systemic chemotherapy. Mean Peritoneal Carcinomatosis Index (PCI) of 16 ± 10 and 18/24 patients had signet-ring GC. Cisplatin 7.5 mg/m(2) and doxorubicin 1.5 mg/m(2) were given for 30 min at 37 °C and 12 mmHg at 6 week intervals. Outcome criteria were survival, adverse events, and histological tumor response. RESULTS Median follow-up was 248 days (range 105-748), and median survival time was 15.4 months. Seventeen patients had repeated PIPAC, and objective tumor response was observed in 12 (12/24 = 50 %): no vital tumor cells = 6, major pathological response = 6, minor response = 3. Postoperative adverse events > CTCAE 2 were observed in 9 patients (9/24, 37.5 %). In 3/17 patients, a later PIPAC could not be performed due to non-access. Two patients (ECOG 3 and 4) died in the hospital due to disease progression. CONCLUSION PIPAC with low-dose cisplatin and doxorubicin was safe and induced objective tumor regression in selected patients with PM from recurrent, platinum-resistant GC. First survival data are encouraging and justify further clinical studies in this indication.

Abstract
BACKGROUND It is important to evaluate the curability of and avoid unnecessary exploratory surgery for gastric cancer preoperatively. However, no related research has been reported until now. The aim of this study was to evaluate the factors influencing surgery for incurable gastric cancer. METHODS 310 cases of T3-4 gastric cancer patients were analyzed retrospectively, including 141 cases with radical surgery and 169 with surgery for incurable gastric cancer. The incurable factors were categorized as T status (unresectable T4 tumor), N status (unresectable lymph node), peritoneal metastasis, and distant metastasis. χ (2) test and logistic regression were performed to analyze the associations between curability, T status, N status, peritoneal metastasis, or distant metastasis and clinicopathological data. RESULTS Esophageal involvement and T grade were associated with curability. Cardia involvement and Borrmann type were associated with T status. Esophageal involvement and T grade were associated with N status. Gastric body involvement, esophageal involvement, and T grade were associated with peritoneal metastasis. Gastric antrum involvement was associated with distant metastasis. CONCLUSIONS The influencing factors of surgery for incurable gastric cancer should be analyzed preoperatively. Resectability should be evaluated according to these influencing factors combined with imaging analysis.

Breakthrough therapy for peritoneal carcinomatosis of gastric cancer: Intraperitoneal chemotherapy with taxanes. World J Gastrointest Oncol 2015; 7:285-291. [PMID: 26600928 PMCID: PMC4644851 DOI: 10.4251/wjgo.v7.i11.285] [Citation(s) in RCA: 25] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/04/2015] [Revised: 07/28/2015] [Accepted: 09/16/2015] [Indexed: 02/05/2023] Open
Abstract
The effect of chemotherapy on peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC) of gastric cancer remains unclear. Recently, the intraperitoneal (IP) administration of taxanes [e.g., paclitaxel (PTX) and docetaxel (DOC)] during the perioperative period has shown promising results. Herein, we summarized the rationale and methodology for using IP chemotherapy with taxanes and reviewed the clinical results. IP administered taxanes remain in the IP space at an extremely high concentration for 48-72 h. The drug directly infiltrates peritoneal metastatic nodules from the surface and then produces antitumor effects, making it ideal for IP chemotherapy. There are two types of perioperative IP chemotherapy with taxanes: neoadjuvant intraperitoneal and systemic chemotherapy and sequential perioperative intraperitoneal chemotherapy (SPIC). In SPIC, patients receive neoadjuvant IP chemotherapy and the same regimen of IP chemotherapy after cytoreductive surgery (CRS) until disease progression. Usually, a taxane dissolved in 500-1000 mL of saline at ordinary temperature is administered through an IP access port on an outpatient basis. According to phase I studies, the recommended doses (RD) are as follows: IP DOC, 45-60 mg/m2; IP PTX [without intravenous (IV) PTX], 80 mg/m2; and IP PTX (with IV PTX), 20 mg/m2. Phase II studies have reported a median survival time of 14.4-24.6 mo with a 1-year overall survival of 67%-78%. A phase III study comparing S-1 in combination with IP and IV PTX to S-1 with IV cisplatin started in 2011. The prognosis of patients who underwent CRS was better than that of those who did not; however, this was partly due to selection bias. Although several phase II studies have shown promising results, a randomized controlled study is needed to validate the effectiveness of IP chemotherapy with taxanes for PC of gastric cancer.

Abstract
PURPOSE Despite continuously improving therapies, gastric cancer still shows poor survival in locally advanced stages with local recurrence rates of up to 50% and peritoneal recurrence rates of 17% after curative surgery. We performed a systematic review with meta-analyses to clarify whether positive intraperitoneal cytology (IPC) indicates a high risk of disease recurrence and poor overall survival in gastric cancer. METHODS Multiple databases were searched in December 2014 to identify studies on the prognostic significance of positive intraperitoneal cytology in gastric cancer, including: Medline, Biosis, Science Citation Index, Embase, CCMed and publisher databases. Hazard ratios (HR) and associated 95% confidence intervals (CI) were extracted from the identified studies. A meta-analysis was performed using a random-effects model on overall survival, disease-free survival and peritoneal recurrence free survival. RESULTS A total of 64 studies with a cumulative sample size of 12,883 patients were included. Cytology, quantitative real time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) or both were performed in 35; 21 and 8 studies, respectively. Meta analyses revealed free intraperitoneal tumor cells (FITC) to be associated with poor overall survival in univariate (HR 3.27; 95% CI 2.82 - 3.78]) and multivariate (HR 2.45; 95% CI 2.04 - 2.94) analysis and poor peritoneal recurrence free survival in univariate (4.15; 95% CI 3.10 - 5.57) and multivariate (3.09; 95% CI 2.02 - 4.71) analysis. Subgroup analysis showed this effect to be independent of the detection method, Western or Asian origin or the time of publication. CONCLUSIONS FITC oder positive peritoneal cytology is associated with poor survival and increased peritoneal recurrence in gastric cancer.

Abstract
In general, detection of peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC) occurs at the late stage when there is no treatment option. In the present study, we designed novel drug delivery systems that are functionalized with anti-CD133 antibodies. The C1, C2 and C3 complexes with cisplatin were introduced into nanotubes, either physically or chemically. The complexes were reacted with anti-CD133 antibody to form the labeled product of A0-o-CX-chem-CD133. Cytotoxicity screening of all the complexes was performed on CHO cells. Data showed that both C2 and C3 Pt-complexes are more cytotoxic than C1. Flow-cytometry analysis showed that nanotubes conjugated to CD133 antibody have the ability to target cells expressing the CD133 antigen which is responsible for the emergence of resistance to chemotherapy and disease recurrence. The shortest survival rate was observed in the control mice group (K3) where no hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy procedures were used. On the other hand, the longest median survival rate was observed in the group treated with A0-o-C1-chem-CD133. In summary, we designed a novel drug delivery system based on carbon nanotubes loaded with Pt-prodrugs and functionalized with anti-CD133 antibodies. Our data demonstrates the effectiveness of the new drug delivery system and provides a novel therapeutic modality in the treatment of melanoma.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study is to present our initial experience in peritoneal carcinomatosis treatment and the technical details of cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) in the light of current literature. MATERIAL AND METHODS Data of 27 consecutive patients who were treated with CRS and HIPEC for peritoneal carcinomatosis in Medical Park Samsun Hospital, between November 2012 and September 2014 were retrospectively reviewed. Treatment indication and management were evaluated at the multidisciplinary oncology council. All patients underwent CRS and HIPEC with the aim of complete cytoreduction. Patients with unresectable disease and/or palliative surgery were excluded from analysis. Perioperative complications were classified according to Clavien-Dindo classification, and HIPEC-related side effects were identified using National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) criteria. Demographic, clinical and histopathological data of the patients were analyzed. RESULTS The mean age was 54 (32-72). Nineteen patients were female. The origin of peritoneal carcinomatosis was colorectal cancer in 12 patients, ovarian cancer in 12 patients, gastric cancer in 2 patients and pseudomyxoma peritonei in 1 patient. The mean Peritoneal Carcinomatosis Index was 12 (3-32), with a mean operative time of 420 (300-660) minutes. Perioperative morbidity, HIPEC-related toxicity and perioperative mortality were observed in eight (30%), one (3.7%) and four patients (14.8%), respectively. During a mean follow up of 13 (1-22) months, overall and disease-free survival rates were 95.8% and 82.6%, respectively. Two patients with colorectal cancer (after 9 and 12 months) and one patient with ovarian cancer (after 11 months) had intra-abdominal recurrence. One patient with ovarian cancer had liver metastases 13 months after surgery, and underwent resection of segments 6-7. The remaining patients are being followed-up without any recurrence. CONCLUSION Cytoreductive surgery and HIPEC have favorable results in the treatment of patients with peritoneal carcinomatosis. Compatible with the literature, surgical outcomes of the presented series are encouraging for this treatment modality that have been recently popularized in our country. Careful perioperative evaluation, proper patient selection and multidisciplinary approach are essential for success in curative treatment of peritoneal carcinomatosis.

Abstract
As the main reason of death in patients with gastric cancer, peritoneal metastasis is still a major problem to be solved. As we all know, peritoneal metastasis is the main form of advanced gastric cancer and gastric cancer recurrence, which involves a complex, multi-stage, multifactorial pathological process. The diagnosis and treatment of peritoneal metastasis of gastric cancer are particularly difficult. The good news is that through active exploration and clinical research, several important achievements have been made and gradually bring the gospel to clinical patients. This paper will review the recent progress in the diagnosis and treatment of peritoneal metastasis of gastric cancer.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC) greatly affects cancer staging and resectability. OBJECTIVE To compare the PC detection rate by using EUS and noninvasive imaging and to determine the impact on staging and resectability. DESIGN Retrospective study. SETTING Single tertiary-care referral center. PATIENTS A prospectively maintained EUS database was reviewed to identify patients who underwent EUS-guided FNA (EUS-FNA) of a peritoneal anomaly. Findings were compared with a strict criterion standard that incorporated cytohistologic, radiologic, and clinical data. INTERVENTION EUS-FNA of a peritoneal anomaly. MAIN OUTCOME MEASUREMENTS Safety and diagnostic yield. RESULTS Of 106 patients, a criterion standard was available in 98 (39 female patients; median age, 65 years). The sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of EUS-FNA versus CT/magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was 91% versus 28%, 100% versus 85%, and 94% versus 47%, respectively. In newly diagnosed cancer patients, peritoneal FNA upstaged 17 patients (23.6%). Of 32 patients deemed resectable by pre-EUS CT/MRI, 15 (46.9%) were deemed unresectable based solely on peritoneal FNA. The odds of FNA changing the resectability status remained highly significant after adjustment for cancer type, time between CT/MRI and EUS-FNA, and the quality of CT/MRI. The malignant appearance of the peritoneal anomaly but not the presence of ascites on EUS predicted a positive FNA finding (odds ratio 2.56; 95% confidence interval, 1.23-5.4 and odds ratio 0.83; 95% confidence interval, 0.4-1.8, respectively). There were 3 adverse events among 4 patients. Two of the patients developed abdominal pain and one each hypertensive urgency and pancreatitis. LIMITATIONS Retrospective design, single-center, bias toward EUS as a diagnostic test. CONCLUSION Peritoneal EUS-FNA appears to safely detect radiographically occult PC and improve cancer staging and patient care.

Abstract
PURPOSE Several studies have shown the potential benefit of cytoreductive surgery combined with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) in gastric cancer patients. At present the most effective chemotherapeutic regime in HIPEC for gastric cancer is unknown. The aim of this review was to provide a comprehensive overview of chemotherapeutic agents used for HIPEC in gastric cancer. METHODS A literature search was conducted using the PubMed database to identify studies on chemotherapy used for HIPEC in gastric cancer patients. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION The chemotherapeutic regime of choice in HIPEC for gastric cancer has yet to be determined. The wide variety in studies and study parameters, such as chemotherapeutic agents, dosage, patient characteristics, temperature of perfusate, duration of perfusion, carrier solutions, intraperitoneal pressure and open or closed perfusion techniques, warrant more experimental and clinical studies to determine the optimal treatment schedule. A combination of drugs probably results in a more effective treatment.

Complete versus incomplete cytoreduction in peritoneal carcinosis from gastric cancer, with consideration to PCI cut-off. Systematic review and meta-analysis. Eur J Surg Oncol 2015; 41:911-9. [PMID: 25936764 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejso.2015.03.231] [Citation(s) in RCA: 68] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/01/2015] [Revised: 03/19/2015] [Accepted: 03/20/2015] [Indexed: 02/07/2023] Open
Abstract
INTRODUCTION The completeness of cytoreduction has been considerated as fundamental in increasing the life expectancy in patients with peritoneal carcinosis (PC) in gastric cancer. However no definitive data about the real effect of complete cytoreduction (CC) have still been published. Moreover the PCI cut-off to attempt CC with a reasonable risk-benefit ratio still lacks. MATERIAL AND METHODS A systematic review with meta-analysis of trials of complete vs incomplete cytoreduction in patients with peritoneal carcinosis from GC was performed. RESULTS Nine trials have been included (748 patients: 417 with CC0-CC1 and 324 with CC2-CC3 cytoreduction). 1, 2, 3 and 5 years survival is favorable to CC0-CC1 (Risk Ratio: 2.41, 8.18, 8.66, and 7.96 respectively). CC0 vs. CC1 survival benefit at 1 and 3 years: RR 2.28 and 6.36 respectively, favoring CC0. 1, 2, 3 and 5 years survival changes significantly above and below a PCI of 12. CONCLUSIONS 1, 2, 3 and 5-year overall survival is increased by CC0-CC1 cytoreduction in patients with PC from gastric origin. Moreover CC0 increases the 1 and 3 years survival when compared to CC1 cytoreduction.

Incidence, time course and independent risk factors for metachronous peritoneal carcinomatosis of gastric origin--a longitudinal experience from a prospectively collected database of 1108 patients. BMC Cancer 2015; 15:73. [PMID: 25879885 PMCID: PMC4337241 DOI: 10.1186/s12885-015-1081-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 44] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.9] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/29/2014] [Accepted: 02/11/2015] [Indexed: 01/19/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Comprehensive evidence on the incidence, time course and independent risk factors of metachronous peritoneal carcinomatosis (metaPC) in gastric cancer patients treated with curative intent in the context of available systemic combination chemotherapies is lacking. Methods Data from a prospectively collected single-institutional Center Cancer Registry with 1108 consecutive patients with gastric adenocarcinoma (GC), clinical, histological and survival data were analyzed for independent risk factors and prognosis with focus on the development of metaPC. Findings were then stratified to the time periods of treatment with surgery alone, 5-Fluorouracil-only and contemporary combined systemic perioperative chemotherapy strategies, respectively. Results Despite R0 D2 gastrectomy (n = 560), 49.6% (±5.4%) of the patients were diagnosed with tumour recurrence and 15.5% (±1.8%) developed metaPC after a median time of 17.7 (15.1-20.3) months after surgery resulting in a tumour related mortality of 100% with a median survival of 3.0 months (2.1 – 4.0). Independent risk factors for the development of metaPC were serosa positive T-category, nodal positive-status, signet cell and undifferentiated gradings (G3/G4). Contemporary systemic combination chemotherapy did not improve the incidence and prognosis of metaPC (p = 0.54). Conclusions Despite significant improvements in the overall survival for the complete cohort with gastric cancer over time, those patients with metaPC did not experience the same benefits. The lack of change in the incidence, and persistent poor prognosis of metaPC after curative surgery expose the need for further prevention and/or improved treatment options for this devastating condition.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Peritoneal carcinomatosis is the dissemination of cancer in the peritoneal cavity secondary to abdominal or extra-abdominal malignancies. Accurate assessment of the disease's burden is a challenge because of the complexity of the peritoneal cavity and the small size of the metastatic nodules. Photodynamic diagnosis (PDD) is an emerging technology in tumor diagnosis. A photosensitizer is administered, which is preferentially taken up by cancer cells. The photosensitizer emits fluorescence when exposed to a light of a specific wavelength. This helps distinguish cancer from normal tissues. METHODS We systematically reviewed the evidence for using PDD in detecting peritoneal carcinomatosis in both animal and human literature. Both Medline and EMBASE databases were searched (November 2014). The titles and the abstracts of all retrieved citations were inspected, and the full articles of the relevant articles were obtained. RESULTS A total of 12 human and 18 animal studies were included. Clinical studies have shown PDD to be a safe modality with no significant adverse effects. It increases the detection of malignant peritoneal nodules by 21%-34% in comparison with white light alone. The sensitivity and specificity of PDD were reported at 83%-100% and 95%-100%, respectively. These findings were supported by multiple animal studies, which have shown an increase in the sensitivity of tumor detection when using PDD (72%-91%) in comparison with white light alone (39%). CONCLUSIONS PDD is a promising modality, which improves the detection of peritoneal carcinomatosis lesions. Further research, however, should investigate the impact of PDD on the patients' therapeutic management and final outcomes.

Abstract
Peritoneal carcinomatosis still lacks reliable therapeutic options. We aimed at testing a drug delivery strategy allowing a controlled release of cytotoxic molecules and selective targeting of tumor cells. We comparatively assessed the efficacy of a loco-regional intraperitoneal treatment in immunocompromised mice with bioconjugates formed by chemical linking of paclitaxel or SN-38 to hyaluronan, against three models of peritoneal carcinomatosis derived from human colorectal, gastric and esophageal tumor cell xenografts. In vitro, bioconjugates were selectively internalized through mechanisms largely dependent on interaction with the CD44 receptor and caveolin-mediated endocytosis, which led to accumulation of compounds into lysosomes of tumor cells. Moreover, they inhibited tumor growth comparably to free drugs. In vivo, efficacy of bioconjugates or free drugs against luciferase-transduced tumor cells was assessed by bioluminescence optical imaging, and by recording mice survival. The intraperitoneal administration of bioconjugates in tumor-bearing mice exerted overlapping or improved therapeutic efficacy compared with unconjugated drugs. Overall, drug conjugation to hyaluronan significantly improved the profiles of in vivo tolerability and widened the field of application of existing drugs, over their formal approval or current use. Therefore, this approach can be envisaged as a promising therapeutic strategy for loco-regional treatment of peritoneal carcinomatosis.

Quality of life after cytoreductive surgery and intraoperative hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy for peritoneal surface malignancies: a systematic review. Eur J Surg Oncol 2014; 40:1605-13. [PMID: 25242382 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejso.2014.08.477] [Citation(s) in RCA: 32] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/25/2014] [Revised: 07/24/2014] [Accepted: 08/13/2014] [Indexed: 12/11/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Cytoreductive Surgery (CRS) accompanied by Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy (HIPEC) is a promising technique in the treatment of peritoneal metastatic disease. The complexity and the potential adverse effects of the procedure can significantly affect patients' Quality of Life (QoL). Few studies have assessed the impact of CRS + HIPEC in patients' QoL using structured and validated tools. This is a systematic review of the currently available published data, investigating the QoL after performing CRS + HIPEC for tumours of varying primary origin. METHODS We performed a systematic review of the studies indexed in PubMed database until July 2014, using as key phrase "quality of life" and "intraperitoneal chemotherapy", including studies using only validated questionnaires for assessing quality of life parameters. RESULTS 20 studies were identified that matched the criteria set. The results of these studies, although of significant heterogeneity, clearly demonstrate that although overall QoL scores drop in the immediate postoperative period, at an average of 3 months post procedure they recover to 80%-100% or even exceed baseline values. Furthermore, between 6 and 12 months postoperatively, overall QoL is improved in survivors compared to pre-operative status. CONCLUSIONS CRS and HIPEC is feasible as a treatment modality in selected patients with peritoneal metastatic disease and can preserve or even improve patients' overall quality of life.

Abstract
AIM: To investigate the molecular mechanisms of miRNA in advanced gastric cancers (AGCs) before and after cytoreductive surgery (CRS) + hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC).
METHODS: A miRNA microarray containing human mature and precursor miRNA sequences was used to compare expression profiles in serum samples of 5 patients with AGC before and after CRS + HIPEC. The upregulation of miR-218 was confirmed by real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction and its expression was analyzed in SGC7901 gastric cancer cells.
RESULTS: miRNA microarray chip analysis found that the level of miR-218 expression was upregulated more than 8 fold after CRS + HIPEC. Furthermore, miR-218 increased gastric cancer cell chemosensitivity to cisplatin in vitro and inhibited gastric cell tumor growth in nude mice in vivo (0.5 vs 0.78, P < 0.05).
CONCLUSION: Our results indicated that targeting miR-218 may provide a strategy for blocking the development of gastric cancer and reverse the multi-drug resistance of gastric cell lines.

World J Gastroenterol 2014; 20:10094-10107.

Abstract
AIM: To explore the efficacy of PCI-24781, a broad-spectrum, hydroxamic acid-derived histone deacetylase inhibitor, in the treatment of gastric cancer (GC).
METHODS: With or without treatment of PCI-24781 and/or cis-diamminedichloroplatinum (CDDP), GC cell lines were subjected to functional analysis, including cell growth, apoptosis and clonogenic assays. Chromatin immunoprecipitation and luciferase reporter assays were used to determine the interacting molecules and the activity of the enzyme. An in vivo study was carried out in GC xenograft mice. Cell culture-based assays were represented as mean ± SD. ANOVA tests were used to assess differences across groups. All pairwise comparisons between tumor weights among treatment groups were made using the Tukey-Kramer method for multiple comparison adjustment to control experimental-wise type I error rates. Significance was set at P < 0.05.
RESULTS: PCI-24781 significantly reduced the growth of the GC cells, enhanced cell apoptosis and suppressed clonogenicity, and these effects synergized with the effects of CDDP. PCI-24781 modulated the cell cycle and significantly reduced the expression of RAD51, which is related to homologous recombination. Depletion of RAD51 augmented the biological functions of PCI-24781, CDDP and the combination treatment, whereas overexpressing RAD51 had the opposite effects. Increased binding of the transcription suppressor E2F4 on the RAD51 promoter appeared to play a major role in these processes. Furthermore, significant suppression of tumor growth and weight in vivo was obtained following PCI-24781 treatment, which synergized with the anticancer effect of CDDP.
CONCLUSION: These data suggest that RAD51 potentiates the synergistic effects of chemotherapy with PCI-24781 and CDDP on GC.

Abstract
The discovery of microRNAs (miRNAs) provided a new avenue for early diagnosis and treatment of GC. MiR-137 has been reported to be under-expressed and involved in various cell processes. However, the role of miR-137 in GC is less known. In this study, we show that miR-137 is under-expressed in GC and functions as a tumor suppressor through targeting Cyclooxygenase-2 (Cox-2), which subsequently suppresses the activation of PI3K/AKT signaling pathway both in vitro and in vivo. Moreover, restored Cox-2 expression partially abolished the tumor suppressive effects of miR-137 in GC cells, suggesting miR-137 may suppress GC carcinogenesis by targeting Cox-2.

Abstract
PURPOSE To establish a simple method for estimating residual peritoneal ascites in order to determine the optimum verapamil (VRP) initial concentration in the intraperitoneal perfusion chemotherapy. METHODS (1) Pelvic size of adults was assessed by measuring distance from the superior margin of pubic symphysis to the connecting line of two anterior superior spine (SL) and to the midpoint of the line (SM) in 172 adults; (2) 35 postoperative gastric or colon cancer patients with indications for use of preventive intraperitoneal chemotherapy were infused with 1,000-1,250 mL 0.9 % normal saline solution for about 15 min and used for perfusate detection by moving along the midpoint of connecting line of two anterior superior spine after 5 min of infusion; (3) The VRP concentration in ascites was detected by liquid chromatography. RESULTS The distance between two anterior superior spines for adult were 29.6 ± 2.6 cm and the distance from the superior margin of pubic symphysis to the midpoint between two anterior superior spines was 10.6 ± 1.9 cm. When the total intraperitoneal infusion fluid was 1,000-1,250 mL, it could be detected by B-mode ultrasonic device at 0.1-0.3 cm directly below the midpoint of two anterior superior spines. The VRP reversal concentration of drug resistance could maintain for 90 min when the residual ascites volume was within the range of 1,000-1,250 mL. CONCLUSIONS Detection of liquid at the position directly below or above the midpoint of two anterior superior spines by B-mode ultrasonic device in patients in erect position could be a simple method for estimation of ascites volume (liquid found at 0.1-0.3 cm directly below the midpoint of two anterior superior spines suggested that ascites volume was smaller than 1,000-1,250 mL). The method could be used for determination of VRP initial concentration for IPC treatment.

Abstract
Gastric cancer (GC) is one of the most common cancers and the leading cause of cancer-related deaths globally. The discovery of microRNAs (miRNAs) provides a new avenue for GC diagnostic and treatment regiments. Currently, a large number of miRNAs have been reported to be associated with the progression of GC, among which miR-378 has been examined to be downregulated in GC tissues and several cell lines. However, the function of miR-378 on GC cells and the mechanisms were less known. Here we found that ectopic expression of miR-378 could inhibit cell proliferation, cell cycle progression, cell migration as well as invasion, and induced cell apoptosis in GC cell line MGC-803. Moreover, we found that oncogene mitogen-activated protein kinase 1 (MAPK1) was a target gene of miR-378 in GC cells, and the tumor-suppressive role of miR-378 might be achieved by the direct interaction with MAPK1. Taken together, our results showed that miR-378 might act as tumor suppressors in GC, and it may provide novel diagnostic and therapeutic options for human GC clinical operation in the future.

Abstract
PURPOSE With improved chemotherapeutic regimens, metastasized gastric cancer may show a good response rendering an initially unresectable tumor resectable. We performed a retrospective analysis on the outcome of stage IV gastric cancer patients treated by chemotherapy followed by oncologic resection in a western institution. METHODS From August 1988 to December 2010, a total number of 1,817 patients underwent surgery for gastric cancer at the Department of Surgery, Technical University of Munich. A retrospective analysis of our prospective gastric cancer database identified 58 patients with stage IV gastric cancer having undergone induction chemotherapy followed by surgery in an individualized treatment concept. After induction chemotherapy usually consisting of 2 cycles of PLF (cisplatin, 5-fluorouracil, leucovorin), resection was performed with or without removal of metastases in patients without disease progression. Patients were followed up until death or loss to follow up. RESULTS The three most common metastatic locations were liver (27.6 %), distant lymph nodes (22.4 %), and peritoneum (19.0 %). Of patients, 13.8 % had metastases in more than one location. Thirty-day mortality was 5.2 %, 90-day mortality was 13.8 %, while overall postoperative morbidity accounted for 24 %. In 19 (32.8 %) patients, a complete resection without any macroscopic tumor residues was achieved. In 39 (67.2 %) patients, tumors could not be completely removed with either local residual disease or residual disease at distant sites. Overall median survival was 20 months, while patients without residual tumor survived significantly longer (72 months) than patients with residual disease (12 months, p = 0.001). CONCLUSION Secondary surgery of metastasized gastric cancer may be justified in selected cases without progression under induction chemotherapy. An achievable complete removal of the primary tumor and metastases appears the main selection criterion for patients benefitting from this approach.

Abstract
Positive peritoneal cytology (Cyt+) is an important staging tool for patients with locally advanced gastric cancer. The objective of this review is to evaluate the current literature regarding cytology evaluation in patients with gastric cancer and to provide recommendations on the inclusion of this powerful prognosticator in patients with this disease. A literature search was performed for recent and pertinent studies evaluating peritoneal cytology in patients with gastric adenocarcinoma. Peritoneal cytology as the only evidence for M1 disease is present in up to 10% of patients with locally advanced gastric cancer; survival in the setting of Cyt+ is dismal when gastrectomy is the first line of therapy. Improved survival is associated with response to chemotherapy indicated by conversion to negative cytology, good performance status, and antral tumors. Highly select patients with Cyt+ treated with gastrectomy show improved survival in only some of the available studies. There are high quality studies that support the routine practice of peritoneal cytology evaluation in patients with locally advanced gastric cancer. The role of gastrectomy remains unclear in patients with Cyt+ and clinical trials are needed to define the best treatment option for this select group of patients.

Abstract
Gastric cancer (GC) is the fourth most common cancer and the second leading cause of cancer death in the world; 53–60% of patients show disease progression and die of peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC). PC of gastric origin has an extremely inauspicious prognosis with a median survival estimate at 1–3 months. Different studies presented contrasting data about survival rates; however, all agreed with the necessity of a complete cytoreduction to improve survival. Hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) has an adjuvant role in preventing peritoneal recurrences. A multidisciplinary approach should be empowered: the association of neoadjuvant intraperitoneal and systemic chemotherapy (NIPS), cytoreductive surgery (CRS), HIPEC, and early postoperative intraperitoneal chemotherapy (EPIC) could increase the rate of completeness of cytoreduction (CC) and consequently survival rates, especially in patients with Peritoneal Cancer Index (PCI) ≤6. Neoadjuvant chemotherapy may improve survival also in PC from GC and adjuvant chemotherapy could prevent recurrence. In the last decade an interesting new drug, called Catumaxomab, has been developed in Germany. Two studies showed that this drug seems to improve progression-free survival in patients with GC; however, final results for both studies have still to be published.

Abstract
Peritoneal dissemination (PD) of tumor cells is the most frequent pattern of gastric cancer recurrence and the leading cause of death. Peritoneal milky spots are deemed as the site of origin of gastric cancer PD wherein the main cellular components are macrophages. A vaccine derived from the mannose-sensitive hemagglutination pilus strain of Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PA-MSHA) has exhibit strong immune modulatory properties. In the present study, we tested the hypothesis whether the PA-MSHA vaccine activated peritoneal milky spot macrophages (PMSM) in a manner that would attenuate PD. It was observed that PA-MSHA activated PMSM towards a classical activation phenotype via a toll-like receptor4/9-dependent mechanism, which increased interleukin-12 levels and promoted the expression of co-stimulatory and antigen-presenting molecules like CD80, CD86, and MHC-II (P < 0.05). In addition, PA-MSHA-treated PMSM exhibited strong nonspecific antitumor effects in both contact-dependent and contact-independent modes of action (P < 0.05). In mice treated with PA-MSHA before inoculating gastric cancer cells, we noted alleviated PD toward the untreated mice. In conclusion, our findings demonstrated that PA-MSHA can stimulate PMSM towards an M1 phenotype and that activated PMSM inhibit gastric cancer growth and PD both in vitro and in vivo. The results of the current study provide a mechanistic insight that is relevant to the potential application of PA-MSHA in the treatment of gastric cancer-mediated PD.

Abstract
Intraperitoneal carcinomatosis (PC) may occur with several tumor entities. The prognosis of patients suffering from PC is usually poor. Present treatment depends on the cancer entity and includes systemic chemotherapy, radiation therapy, hormonal therapy and surgical resection. Only few patients may also benefit from hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy with a complete tumor remission. These therapies are often accompanied by severe systemic side-effects. One approach to reduce side effects is to target chemotherapeutic agents to the tumor with carrier devices. Promising experimental results have been achieved using drug-eluting beads (DEBs). A series of in vitro and in vitro experiments has been conducted to determine the suitability of their extravascular use. These encapsulation devices were able to harbor CYP2B1 producing cells and to shield them from the hosts immune system when injected intratumorally. In this way ifosfamide - which is transformed into its active metabolites by CYP2B1 - could be successfully targeted into pancreatic tumor growths. Furthermore DEBs can be used to target chemotherapeutics into the abdominal cavity for treatment of PC. If CYP2B1 producing cells are proven to be save for usage in man and if local toxic effects of chemotherapeutics can be controlled, DEBs will become promising tools in compartment-based anticancer treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Selected patients with peritoneal surface malignancies (PSM) have been treated effectively by the combination of cytoreduction surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC). PURPOSE The purpose of this study is to summarize the treatment outcomes and general considerations regarding definitions and staging systems of current CRS and HIPEC modalities in malignant peritoneal mesothelioma and in secondary peritoneal malignancies such as peritoneal metastasis from appendiceal, colorectal, gastric, and epithelial ovarian cancers. CONCLUSION Disease progression within the peritoneal cavity has in the past been regarded as a terminal event. Accumulating evidence underlines the therapeutic potential and the acceptable morbidity and mortality rates of CRS and HIPEC in selected patients.

Abstract
AIM: To reduce postoperative complications and to make possible an optimal cytoreduction, neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) followed by interval debulking surgery has been applied with encouraging results.
METHODS: Between December 2009 and February 2012, patients with stage IIIC-IV epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) underwent diagnostic laparoscopy, to assess the feasibility of optimal debulking surgery. The modified Fagotti score was applied to assess the feasibility of resection with zero residual tumor. Patients who were not candidate for upfront debulking surgery were submitted to NACT, then reassessed according to the RECIST 1.1 criteria and submitted to cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) if they showed clinical response or stable disease. The remaining cycles of adjuvant systemic chemotherapy (ASCT) were administered postoperatively, to complete 6 cycles of systemic chemotherapy.
RESULTS: Nine patients were included. Clinical response to NACT was complete in 3 patients and partial in 5 patients; one patient had stable disease. All patients underwent CRS resulting in CC0 disease prior to HIPEC. Average operative time was 510 min. Average intensive care unit stay was 2 d. Average postoperative hospital stay was 25 d. No postoperative mortality was observed. One patient experienced pelvic abscess. One patient refused ASCT. The remaining 8 patients started ASCT. Average time to chemotherapy was 36 d. All patients are alive, with an average follow up of 11 mo. Eight patients are disease-free at follow up.
CONCLUSION: HIPEC after CRS for advanced EOC is feasible with acceptable morbidity and mortality. NACT may increase the chance for achieving complete cytoreduction. Phase 3 studies are needed to determine the effects of HIPEC on survival.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Peritoneal carcinomatosis from gastric cancer (GPC) responds poorly to systemic chemotherapy. Limited published data demonstrate improved outcomes after aggressive locoregional therapies. We assessed the efficacy of cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemoperfusion (HIPEC) in GPC. METHODS We prospectively analyzed 23 patients with GPC undergoing CRS/HIPEC between 2001 and 2010. Kaplan-Meier survival curves and multivariate Cox regression models identified prognostic factors affecting oncologic outcomes. RESULTS CRS/HIPEC was performed for synchronous GPC in 20 patients and metachronous GPC in 3 patients. Adequate CRS was achieved in 22 patients (CC-0 = 17; CC-1 = 5) and median peritoneal cancer index was 10.5. Most patients received preoperative chemotherapy (83 %) and total gastrectomy (78 %). Pathology revealed diffuse histology (65 %), signet cells (65 %) and LN involvement (64 %). Major postoperative morbidity occurred in 12 patients, with 1 in-hospital mortality at postoperative day 66. With median follow-up of 52 months, median overall survival (OS) was 9.5 months (95 % confidence interval 4.7-17.3), with 1- and 3- year OS rates of 50 and 18 %. Median progression-free survival (PFS) was 6.8 months (95 % confidence interval 3.9-14.6). In a multivariate Cox regression model, male gender [hazard ratio (HR) 6.3], LN involvement (HR 1.2), residual tumor nodules (HR 2.4), and >2 anastomoses (HR 2.8) were joint significant predictors of poor OS (χ (2) = 18.2, p = 0.001), while signet cells (HR 8.9), anastomoses >2 (HR 5.5), and male gender (HR 2.4) were joint significant predictors of poor progression (χ (2) = 16.3, p = 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Aggressive CRS/HIPEC for GPC may confer a survival benefit in select patients with limited lymph node involvement and completely resectable disease requiring less extensive visceral resections.

Abstract
Several gastrointestinal and gynecological malignancies have the potential to disseminate and grow in the peritoneal cavity. The occurrence of peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC) has been shown to significantly decrease overall survival in patients with liver and/or extraperitoneal metastases from gastrointestinal cancer. During the last three decades, the understanding of the biology and pathways of dissemination of tumors with intraperitoneal spread, and the understanding of the protective function of the peritoneal barrier against tumoral seeding, has prompted the concept that PC is a loco-regional disease: in absence of other systemic metastases, multimodal approaches combining aggressive cytoreductive surgery, intraperitoneal hyperthermic chemotherapy and systemic chemotherapy have been proposed and are actually considered promising methods to improve loco-regional control of the disease, and ultimately to increase survival. The aim of this review article is to present the evidence on treatment of PC in different tumors, in order to provide patients with a proper surgical and multidisciplinary treatment focused on optimal control of their locoregional disease.

Abstract
Peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC) from gastric cancer is a condition with a very bleak prognosis. Most authors consider it to be a terminal disease and recommend palliative therapy only. Multimodal therapeutic approaches to PC have emerged in the last decades, combining cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and peritonectomy procedures with perioperative intraperitoneal chemotherapy (IPEC), including hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) and/or early postoperative intraperitoneal chemotherapy (EPIC). We reviewed the pertinent literature concerning the HIPEC modality both for the treatment of established PC and the prevention of peritoneal recurrence after potentially curative gastric cancer (GC) surgery. Basically, the two procedures relate to different aspects of GC and they are not comparable, since the latter has been used as an adjuvant when PC is still not macroscopically evident and the former has been exclusively used in advanced gastric cancer stages with peritoneal dissemination. Data supporting beneficial effects once gastric PC is already manifest is scarce and limited to few centres with specific experience in this field. Conversely, with regards to the peritoneal perfusion for preventing PC in high risk gastric cancer patients, there are phase III trials and meta-analysis which support beneficial effects resulting from the HIPEC procedure. To offer a baseline guide, we summarized the actual status and general outcome obtained by this multimodal technique, in association or not with CRS as treatment of advanced GC.

Abstract
Increasing evidence shows that abnormal microRNAs (miRNAs) expression is involved in tumorigenesis. They might be the novel biomarkers or therapeutic targets in disease treatment. miR-29 family was previously reported to act as tumor suppressors or oncogenes in diverse cancers. However, their accurate expression, function and mechanism in gastric cancer (GC) are not well known. Here, we found that the expression of miR-29 family members was significantly reduced in GC compared with adjacent controls. Among them, miR-29c had the most reduced percentage in GC and was associated with aggressive and progressive phenotypes of GC. We further demonstrated that miR-29 family acted as tumor suppressors through targeting CCND2 and matrix metalloproteinase-2 genes in GC. Moreover, the inverse relationship between miR-29 family and their targets was verified in patients and xenograft mice. Finally, reintroduction of miR-29 family significantly inhibited tumor formation of GC cells in the xenograft mice. Take together, our finding characterized the expression properties of miR-29 family, contributed to the function and molecular mechanism of miR-29 family in GC and implied that miR-29 family might be employed as novel prognostic markers and therapeutic targets of GC.

Abstract
AIM Until recently, peritoneal metastases (PM) were regarded as an untreatable condition, regardless of the organ of origin. Currently, promising treatment options are available for selected patients with PM from colorectal, appendiceal, ovarian or gastric carcinoma. The aim of this study was to investigate the incidence, treatment and survival of patients presenting with PM in whom the origin of PM remains unknown. METHODS Data from patients diagnosed with PM of unknown origin during 1984-2010 were extracted from the Eindhoven Cancer Registry. European age-standardised incidence rates were calculated and data on treatment and survival were analysed. RESULTS In total 1051 patients were diagnosed with PM of unknown origin. In 606 patients (58%) the peritoneum was the only site of metastasis, and 445 patients also had other metastases. Chemotherapy usage has increased from 8% in the earliest period to 16% in most recent years (p=.016). Median survival was extremely poor with only 42days (95% confidence interval (CI) 39-47days) and did not change over time. Median survival of patients not receiving chemotherapy was significantly worse than of those receiving chemotherapy (36 versus 218days, p<.0001). CONCLUSION The prognosis of PM of unknown origin is extremely poor and did not improve over time. Given the recent progress that has been achieved in selected patients presenting with PM, maximum efforts should be undertaken in order to diagnose the origin of PM as accurately as possible. Potentially effective treatment strategies should be further explored for patients in whom the organ of origin remains unknown.

Ziyuglycoside II is an active compound of Sanguisorba officinalis L.
that has anti-inflammation, antioxidation, antibiosis, and homeostasis properties. We
report here on the anticancer effect of ziyuglycoside II on human gastric carcinoma
BGC-823 cells. We investigated the effects of ziyuglycoside II on cell growth, cell
cycle, and cell apoptosis of this cell line. Our results revealed that ziyuglycoside
II could inhibit the proliferation of BGC-823 cells by inducing apoptosis but not
cell cycle arrest, which was associated with regulation of Bax/Bcl-2 expression, and
activation of the caspase-3 pathway. Our study is the first to report the antitumor
potential of ziyuglycoside II in BGC-823 gastric cancer cells. Ziyuglycoside II may
become a potential therapeutic agent against gastric cancer in the future.

Abstract
Peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC) is an important cause of morbidity and mortality among patients with gastric cancer. The aim of the current study was to provide reliable population-based data on the incidence, risk factors and prognosis of PC of gastric origin. All patients diagnosed with gastric cancer in the area of the Eindhoven Cancer Registry between 1995 and 2011 were included. Incidence and survival were computed and risk factors for peritoneal carcinomatosis were determined using multivariate logistic regression analysis. In total, 5,220 patients were diagnosed with gastric cancer, of whom 2,029 (39%) presented with metastatic disease. PC was present in 706 patients (14%) of whom 491 patients (9%) had PC as the only metastatic site. Younger age (<60 years), female gender, advanced T- and N-stage, primary tumor of signet ring cells or linitis plastica and primary tumors covering multiple anatomical locations of the stomach were all associated with a higher odds ratios of developing PC. Median survival of patients without metastases was 14 months, but only 4 months for patients with PC. PC is a frequent condition in patients presenting with gastric cancer, especially in younger patients with advanced tumor stages. Given the detrimental influence of PC on survival, efforts should be undertaken to further explore the promising results that were obtained in preventing or treating this condition with multimodality strategies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Adjuvant intraoperative hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (IHIC) is a therapy which combines thermotherapy and intraperitoneal chemotherapy. It is theoretically powerful for patients with advanced gastric cancer (AGC), but is there evident advantage in clinical practice? We need evidence to guide our decision-making. OBJECTIVES Meta-analysis was performed to assess the effectiveness and safety of adjuvant intraoperative hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (IHIC) for patients with resectable locally advanced gastric cancer, and to provide the reference for clinical practice and study. METHODS We searched the Cochrane Library, PubMed, Embase, Web of Science and Chinese databases (Chinese BioMedical Literature Database (CBM), China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) and Wanfang) electronically and also retrieved papers from other sources (tracing related references and communication with other authors). All relevant randomised controlled trials (RCTs) were collected to compare surgery combined with IHIC to surgery without IHIC for AGC. There were no language restrictions. After independent quality assessment and data extraction by two reviewers, meta-analysis was conducted by RevMan 5.1 software. RESULTS 16 RCTs involving 1,906 patients were included. Compared with surgery alone, combination therapy (surgery plus IHIC) was associated with a significant improvement in survival rate at 1 year (hazard ratio (HR) = 2.99; 95% confidence interval (CI) = 2.21 to 4.05; p < 0.00001), 2 years (HR = 2.43; 95%CI = 1.81 to 3.26; p < 0.00001), 3 years (HR = 2.63; 95%CI = 2.17 to 3.20; p < 0.00001), 5 years (HR = 2.49; 95%CI = 1.97 to 3.14; p < 0.00001), and 9 years (HR = 2.14; 95%CI = 1.38 to 3.32; p = 0.0007). Compared with surgery alone, combination therapy was associated with a significant reduction in recurrence rate at 2 years (RR = 0.42; 95%CI = 0.29 to 0.61; p < 0.00001), 3 years (RR = 0.35; 95%CI = 0.24 to 0.51; p < 0.00001) and 5 years (RR = 0.47; 95%CI = 0.39 to 0.56; p < 0.00001). IHIC was not found to be associated with higher risks of anastomotic leakage, ileus, bowel perforation, myelosuppression, gastrointestinal reaction and hypohepatia, but it increased the incidence of abdominal pain (RR = 21.46; 95%CI = 5.24 to 87.78; p < 0.00001). CONCLUSIONS Compared with surgery alone, surgery combined with IHIC can improve survival rate and reduce the recurrence rate, with acceptable safety. However, safety outcomes should be further evaluated by larger samples and high quality studies. Additionally, hyperthermia for the intraperitoneal chemotherapy needs more clinical research.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Few studies of systemic chemotherapy have focused on gastric cancer with peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC) without measurable lesions. In the present study, we characterized the outcomes of systemic chemotherapy and prognostic factors for gastric cancer with PC, particularly in patients without measurable disease. METHODS Clinical data from 211 gastric cancer patients with PC (137 without and 74 with measurable disease) who had received systemic chemotherapy between January 2003 and December 2010 at a single center were reviewed. RESULTS The median overall survival (OS) rate of gastric cancer patients with PC with no measurable disease was significantly longer than that of patients with measurable disease (18.0 vs. 11.6 months, p = 0.010). On multivariate analysis, poor performance status [hazard ratio (HR) = 2.15, p < 0.001], the presence of metastatic lymphadenopathy (HR = 2.17, p < 0.001), and high-grade PC (HR = 1.83, p = 0.001) were associated with significantly decreased OS. When patients with low-grade PC were stratified by clinical PC grade, the median OS of those without measurable disease was 19.6 months. The median OS of patients with low-grade PC with no measurable disease was longer than those of patients with high-grade PC without measurable disease, patients with low-grade PC with measurable disease, and patients with high-grade PC with measurable disease (p = 0.001, p = 0.029, and p < 0.001, respectively). Among the patients with low-grade PC, patients who received a gastrectomy had longer survival than patients who did not receive a gastrectomy (p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS In our study, clinically low-grade PC without measurable disease was associated with better outcomes of systemic chemotherapy than the outcomes in the other groups examined. Clinical trials in patients with gastric cancer with PC should be stratified according to PC grade.

Abstract
There is now a considerable body of published evidence supporting the use of a multimodal approach consisting of cytoreductive surgery (CS) and heated intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) in the treatment of peritoneal metastases (PM) arising from selected gastrointestinal tract malignancies. In the absence of systemic metastases, it is thought that disease confined to the peritoneum may be eradicated through optimum cytoreduction. This review critically evaluates the current body of published evidence for the use of CS/HIPEC in the treatment of advanced colorectal, appendiceal and gastric cancer. Although its role remains less defined in patients with gastric PM, current evidence provides a compelling argument for its use in PM of colorectal and appendiceal origin. With a low mortality and acceptable morbidity rate, CS/HIPEC may offer hope of long-term survival and cure in a defined group of patients with this disease.
