Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the perioperative outcomes and complications of patients with peritoneal carcinomatosis who underwent cytoreductive surgery plus hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC). METHODS This retrospective study included 100 patients operated on between 2016 and 2020. Patients' characteristics, including age, comorbidities, chemotherapy history, treatment failures, cancer type, histology, platinum sensitivity, and perioperative complications, were documented. Perioperative complications were classified according to the Clavien-Dindo classification. RESULTS Median age was 58 years and median follow-up time was 16 months. Eighty-six (86%) patients had ovarian cancer; 11 (11%) experienced grade III-IV complications, and the only relevant factor was the presence of multiple metastasis (P = 0.031). Seven patients (7%) had surgical-site infection; in multivariant analyses, only ostomy formation was found as an independent risk factor for surgical-site infection (odds ratio [OR] 14.01; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.36-143.52; P = 0.024). Fifteen (15%) patients experienced elevated serum creatinine after surgery and the median time to creatinine elevation was 5 days postoperatively (range 3-15 days). In multivariant analyses, only age of of 58 years or more was found as a significant factor for the elevation of serum creatinine (OR 6.96; 95% CI 1.42-32.81; P = 0.014). CONCLUSION Our results showed that the presence of multiple metastases increased the risk of grade III-IV complications and age of 58 years or more was the leading risk factor for renal complications. However, we could not find a relation between postoperative complications and oncologic outcomes. HIPEC seems to be a safe approach in experienced hands.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of this retrospective study is to assess the incidence of morbidity and mortality related to cytoreductive surgery (CRS) plus hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) and to evaluate their predictors, in patients with peritoneal metastasis of ovarian origin. METHODS A retrospective multicenter study was carried out investigating results from eight Italian institutions. A total of 276 patients met inclusion criteria. Predictors of morbidity and mortality were evaluated with univariate and multivariate analysis. RESULTS Overall morbidity was 71.4%, and severe complications occurred in 23.9% of the sample; 60-day mortality was 4.3%. According to univariate logistic regression models, grade 3-4 morbidity was related to Peritoneal Cancer Index (PCI) (OR 1.06; 95% CI 1.02-1.09; p<0.001), number of intraoperative blood transfusions (OR 1.21; 95% CI 1.10-1.34; p<0.001), Completeness of Cytoreduction (CC) score (OR 1.68; 95% CI 1.16-2.44; p=0.006) and number of anastomoses (OR 1.32; 95% CI 1.00-1.73; p=0.046). However, at the multivariate logistic regression analysis, only the number of intraoperative blood transfusions (OR 1.17; 95% CI 1.5-1.30; p=0.004) and PCI (OR 1.04; 95% CI 1.01-1.08; p=0.010) resulted as key predictors of severe morbidity. Furthermore, using multivariate logistic regression model, ECOG score (OR 2.45; 95% CI 1.21-4.93; p=0.012) and the number of severe complications (OR 2.16; 95% CI 1.03-4.52; p=0.042) were recorded as predictors of exitus within 60 days. CONCLUSIONS The combination of CRS and HIPEC for treating peritoneal metastasis of ovarian origin has acceptable morbidity and mortality and, therefore, it can be considered as an option in selected patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To compare the efficacy of 3 chemotherapeutic combinations for laparoscopic hyperthermic intraperitoneal perfusion chemotherapy (HIPPC) in the treatment of malignant ascites secondary to unresectable gastric cancer (GC). MATERIALS AND METHODS From January 2010 to December 2013, 38 GC patients were randomly divided into 3 groups and treated by laparoscopic HIPPC with 1 of the 3 following chemotherapy combinations: raltitrexed (Ra) with oxaliplatin (L-OHP), Ra with cisplatin (DDP), and Ra with mitomycin C (MMC). Perioperative complications, patients' quality of life, and survival were recorded and compared among the 3 groups. RESULTS The intraoperative course was successful in all patients, and no perioperative death or complication related to laparoscopic HIPPC was documented. The median follow-up period was 9 months and the median survival was 7.5 months for all patients. Patients in the Ra/L-OHP group had a median survival of 8.7 months, the Ra/DDP group had a median survival of 5.6 months, and the Ra/MMC group had a median survival of 7.5 months. Patients' median survival in the Ra/L-OHP group and Ra/MMC group is significantly longer than Ra/DDP group (P<0.05). No significant difference was found in total remission rate of ascites, increase in the Karnofsky performance scale, and incidence rate of port-site metastases among the 3 groups. CONCLUSIONS Laparoscopy-assisted HIPPC provide modest yet encouraging efficacy for malignant ascites secondary to disseminated GC. Our preliminary data indicate that the chemotherapeutical combination of Ra/L-OHP and Ra/MMC might be more beneficial compared with Ra/DDP in terms of patients' survival.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) pathways have been shown to considerably reduce complications, length of stay and costs after most of surgical procedures by standardised application of best evidence-based perioperative care. The aim was to elaborate dedicated recommendations for cytoreductive surgery (CRS) ± hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) in a two-part series of guidelines based on expert consensus. The present part I of the guidelines highlights preoperative and intraoperative management. METHODS The core group assembled a multidisciplinary panel of 24 experts involved in peritoneal surface malignancy surgery representing the fields of general surgery (n = 12), gynaecological surgery (n = 6), and anaesthesia (n = 6). Experts systematically reviewed and summarized the available evidence on 72 identified perioperative care items, following the GRADE (grading of recommendations, assessment, development, evaluation) system. Final consensus (defined as ≥50%, or ≥70% of weak/strong recommendations combined) was reached by a standardised 2-round Delphi process, regarding the strength of recommendations. RESULTS Response rates were 100% for both Delphi rounds. Quality of evidence was evaluated high, moderate low and very low, for 15 (21%), 26 (36%), 29 (40%) and 2 items, respectively. Consensus was reached for 71/72(98.6%) items. Strong recommendations were defined for 37 items, No consensus could be reached regarding the preemptive use of fresh frozen plasma. CONCLUSION The present ERAS recommendations for CRS±HIPEC are based on a standardised expert consensus process providing clinicians with valuable guidance. There is an urgent need to produce high quality studies for CRS±HIPEC and to prospectively evaluate recommendations in clinical practice.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The efficacy of different timings of cytoreductive surgery (CRS) with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) in controlling malignant ascites caused by peritoneal carcinomatosis of colorectal cancer (CRC) is not well defined. The study aims to investigate the clinical efficacy and safety of different timings of CRS with HIPEC for malignant ascites caused by peritoneal carcinomatosis from CRC. MATERIALS AND METHODS This was a preliminary randomized controlled study performed at the Intracelom Hyperthermic Perfusion Therapy Center of the Cancer Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University (China) from December 2008 to December 2016. The patients were randomized to: CRS, followed by HIPEC (CRS+HIPEC; n = 14), and ultrasound-guided HIPEC, followed by CRS 1 to 2 weeks later (HIPEC+ delayed cytoreductive surgery (dCRS) group, n = 14). The endpoints were complete remission rate of ascites, successful complete CRS rate, and overall survival. RESULTS Malignant ascites in all patients showed complete remission; the total effective rate was 100%. Complete CRS was not feasible in any patient. The median follow-up of the 2 groups was 41.9 and 42.3 months in the CRS+HIPEC and HIPEC+dCRS groups, respectively. Overall survival was 14.5 (95%CI: 7-19 months) and 14.3 months (95%CI: 4-21 months) (P > .05). The adverse effects of HIPEC were manageable. CONCLUSIONS CRS+HIPEC and HIPEC+dCRS have the same efficacy in controlling malignant ascites caused by CRC and peritoneal carcinomatosis. The timing of CRS and HIPEC does not prolong the survival of patients with peritoneal carcinomatosis from CRC, even when a complete CRS is not feasible.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Few data are available on long-term fatigue (LTF) and quality of life (QoL) among epithelial ovarian cancer survivors (EOCS). In this case-control study, we compared LTF, symptoms and several QoL domains in EOCS relapse-free ≥3 years after first-line treatment and age-matched healthy women. PATIENTS AND METHODS EOCS were recruited from 25 cooperative GINECO centers in France. Controls were randomly selected from the electoral rolls. All participants completed validated self-reported questionnaires: fatigue (FACIT-F), QoL (FACT-G/O), neurotoxicity (FACT-Ntx), anxiety/depression (HADS), sleep disturbance (ISI), and physical activity (IPAQ). Severe LTF (SLTF) was defined as a FACIT-F score <37/52. Univariate and multivariate logistic regressions were conducted to analyze SLTF and its influencing factors in EOCS. RESULTS A total of 318 EOCS and 318 controls were included. EOCS were 63-year-old on average, with FIGO stage I/II (50%), III/IV (48%); 99% had received platinum and taxane chemotherapy, with an average 6-year follow-up. There were no differences between the two groups in socio-demographic characteristics and global QoL. EOCS had poorer FACIT-F scores (40 versus 45, P < 0.0001), lower functional well-being scores (18 versus 20, P = 0.0002), poorer FACT-O scores (31 versus 34 P < 0.0001), and poorer FACT-Ntx scores (35 versus 39, P < 0.0001). They also reported more SLTF (26% versus 13%, P = 0.0004), poorer sleep quality (63% versus 47%, P = 0.0003), and more depression (22% versus 13%, P = 0.01). Fewer than 20% of EOCS and controls exercised regularly. In multivariate analyses, EOCS with high levels of depression, neurotoxicity, and sleep disturbance had an increased risk of developing SLTF (P < 0.01). CONCLUSION Compared with controls, EOCS presented similar QoL but persistent LTF, EOC-related symptoms, neurotoxicity, depression, and sleep disturbance. Depression, neuropathy, and sleep disturbance are the main conditions associated with severe LTF.

Abstract
Background This paper reports a study of 21 patients with peritoneal carcinomatosis from ovarian cancer who underwent cytoreductive surgery and HIPEC by means of PRS-1.0 Combat®, a new model for closed abdomen HIPEC aimed at improving fluid distribution with assistance from a CO2 recirculation system. This new technology has been previously shown to be successful in an experimental study (pig model) performed by our group, and has been approved for use in our hospital. Methods Twenty-one patients with peritoneal carcinomatosis of ovarian cancer origin were included in the study. Cytoreductive surgery and HIPEC were performed by a closed abdomen fluid and CO2 recirculation technique using the PRS-1.0 Combat(®) model. We analysed the intraoperative safety tolerance and post-operative morbidity and mortality during the first 30 days. Results Between November 2011 and March 2014 21 patients with epithelial ovarian cancer, International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics stage II-IV, were included in the study. During the procedure there were no significant haemodynamic or analytical disturbances. Complication rates were 38.1% and 57.14% for grade III/IV and minor (grade I/II) complications, respectively. Post-operative mortality was 4.76% (one patient). Complete cytoreductive surgery and intraperitoneal chemotherapy improved overall survival and disease-free survival in women with advanced ovarian cancer. The association of intra-abdominal hyperthermia with chemotherapy (HIPEC) increased the therapeutic benefit. Conclusions This study has shown that closed abdomen intraperitoneal chemohyperthermia by a fluid and CO2 recirculation system (PRS-1.0 Combat(®)) can be a safe and feasible model for the treatment of peritoneal carcinomatosis of ovarian cancer origin.

Abstract
Cytoreductive surgery (CRS) with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) is an established treatment option in selected patients with peritoneal dissemination from a variety of epithelial primaries. Even though a small proportion will be alive and potentially cured at 10 years, the majority will eventually develop recurrent disease. Repeat CRS/HIPEC is a valid consideration in a selected subpopulation of patients with isolated peritoneal recurrence. This review summarizes the data on patient selection, feasibility, limitations and outcomes of repeat CRS/HIPEC.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) have been recently reported with favorable oncological outcomes as treatment of advanced epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC). The aim of this study was to demonstrate the feasibility of CRS+HIPEC with cisplatin and paclitaxel for the treatment of advanced EOC. METHODS This is a prospective observational study of 54 patients, from April 2007 to October 2013, with primary or recurrent peritoneal carcinomatosis due to EOC. The mean age was 54.51±9.34. Thirty patients (59%) had primary EOC, and 24 patients (41%) had recurrent disease. RESULTS Mean peritoneal cancer index was 10.11 (range, 0 to 28), complete cytoreduction (CC0) was achieved for 47 patients (87%), CC1 for seven patients (13%). Patients with suboptimal cytoreduction (CC2 and CC3) were not included in the study. The mean stay in intensive care unit was 4.73±5.51 days and the mean hospitalization time was 24.0±10.03 days. We did not observe any intraoperative death. Seven patients (13%) required additional operations. Three patients (5.6%) died within 30 days from the procedure. Severe complications were seen in 19 patients (35.2%). During the follow-up period, disease recurred in 33 patients (61.1%); the median disease-free survival time was 12.46 months and the median overall survival time was 32.91 months. CONCLUSION CRS+HIPEC with cisplatin and paclitaxel for advanced EOC is feasible with acceptable morbidity and mortality. Additional follow-up and further studies are needed to determine the effects of HIPEC on long term survival.

A critical appraisal of hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) in the treatment of advanced and recurrent ovarian cancer. Gynecol Oncol 2014; 136:130-5. [PMID: 25434634 DOI: 10.1016/j.ygyno.2014.11.072] [Citation(s) in RCA: 65] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/15/2014] [Revised: 11/13/2014] [Accepted: 11/20/2014] [Indexed: 01/27/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Our objective was to review the published experiences of the use of hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) in the treatment of advanced and recurrent ovarian cancer with a focus on survival outcomes. METHODS A search of the PubMed database (2008-2014) for articles specifically addressing the topic "HIPEC and ovarian cancer" was performed. We found a total of 22 publications that included 1450 patients. A final group of eleven studies (248 patients with advanced ovarian cancer) and eight publications (499 patients with recurrent sensitive ovarian cancer) that included information about survival were reviewed. RESULTS Among patients with primary ovarian cancer who were treated with primary debulking and HIPEC, the weighted median overall survival was 37.3 months (range 27-78), the median disease-free survival was 14.4 months (range 12-30), and the 5-yr-survival rate was 40% (range 28-72). In the recurrent cohort, the overall survival after HIPEC was 36.5 months (range 23-62), and the median disease-free survival was 20.2 months (range 11-29). The rates of severe morbidity were 25 and 19% in the primary and recurrent groups, respectively. CONCLUSION Although randomized trials are ongoing, the recently published retrospective data regarding the use of HIPEC for primary advanced and for recurrent ovarian cancer do not indicate any apparent advantage of this treatment in terms of the survival outcomes in these patients. Therefore, HIPEC cannot be considered a standard treatment and should not be offered outside of clinical trials.

Abstract
OPINION The treatment of advanced stage ovarian, primary peritoneal and fallopian tube cancer represents a therapeutic challenge as evidenced by the 70 %-80 % recurrence rate. Our understanding of the synergy between surgical cytoreduction and effective systemic chemotherapy continues to evolve, with research supporting maximal cytoreductive effort followed by intraperitoneal chemotherapy. Specifically, analysis of phase III clinical trials has shown a median survival of 110 months in those treated with intraperitoneal chemotherapy, when surgery results in no visible residual disease. Additionally, incorporation of hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy at the time of surgical resection has gained attention as an alternate therapeutic option, in an attempt to obviate toxicities encountered with repetitive cycles of intraperitoneal chemotherapy. Currently, surgical cytoreduction in the hands of an experienced gynecologic oncologist, followed by intraperitoneal chemotherapy is thought to portend the greatest survival benefit in patients with advanced stage ovarian cancer spectrum cancers. Additional investigation regarding the oncologic outcomes and morbidity of hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy is warranted.

Abstract
Cisplatin is effective against solid tumors including ovarian cancer. However, inherent or acquired cisplatin resistance limits clinical success. We recently demonstrated that a combination of sodium arsenite (NaAsO2) and hyperthermia sensitizes p53-expressing ovarian cancer cells to cisplatin by modulating DNA repair pathway and enhancing platinum accumulation. However, it is not understood how this combination therapy modulates cell cycle following platinum-DNA damage. The goal of the present study was to determine if NaAsO2 and hyperthermia alter cisplatin-induced G2 arrest and cause mitotic arrest and mitotic catastrophe. Human epithelial ovarian cancer cells (A2780 and A2780/CP70) were treated with cisplatin ± 20 μM NaAsO2 at 37 or 39°C for 1 h. Cisplatin ± NaAsO2 at 37 or 39°C caused cells to accumulate in G2/M compartment at 36 h after treatment. Western blot analysis of cyclin A and cyclin B suggested that combined NaAsO2, hyperthermia, and cisplatin induced mitotic arrest. However, we observed < 3% mitotic index and phosphorylation of histone H3 on serine 10 was undetectable. These results did not confirm mitotic arrest. BUBR1 (BUB1B) also was not phosphorylated, suggesting disrupted mitotic checkpoint. Postmitotic cells accumulated in pseudo-G1 as demonstrated by cyclin E stabilization, CDKN1A induction, and hypophosphorylation of retinoblastoma protein. These cells also were positive for Annexin V binding indicating they were apoptotic. In summary, cisplatin plus NaAsO2 and hyperthermia induced pseudo-G1 associated apoptosis in ovarian cancer cells.

Abstract
A 33-year-old woman with very poor health status was admitted to our hospital because she had experienced increasing abdominal distention for three months, CT examination showed a right ovarian tumor together with massive abdominal and pelvic fluid. The patient was first treated by continuous circulatory hypothermic intraperitoneal perfusion chemotherapy (HIPC) guided by B-mode ultrasound, followed by cytoreductive surgery (CRS) after her ascites was controlled and her health condition improved. She was diagnosed with gestational choriocarcinoma (GC) based on the pathological examination of the hysterectomy specimen. She is still alive with very good health today. We think it may be a good choice for a patient in very poor health with GC accompanied by massive ascites to perform HIPC guided by B-mode ultrasound firstly, followed by CRS when the ascites has relieved and the patient’s health has improved.

Abstract
Advanced stage epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) is difficult to treat with low overall cure rates. A new strategy combining maximal cytoreductive surgery (CRS) with intra-operative hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) has been proposed to treat advanced stage EOC in the primary setting. Numerous small, heterogeneous studies have been conducted exploring outcomes in patients with predominantly advanced, recurrent or refractory disease treated with CRS + HIPEC. Although morbidity rates approaching 35% have been reported, oncologic outcomes are promising. Incorporation of HIPEC for the treatment of primary EOC has continued to gain interest. Several prospective phase 2 clinical trials were recently completed evaluating the impact of CRS + HIPEC in the primary setting. This article will briefly discuss the benefits of optimal surgical cytoreduction and the theoretical basis of intraperitoneal chemotherapy in patients with advanced stage EOC, and will then review existing literature describing oncologic outcomes in EOC patients treated with HIPEC in the primary setting.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Despite a high response rate to front-line therapy, prognosis of epithelial ovarian carcinoma (EOC) remains poor. Approaches that combine Cytoreductive Surgery (CRS) and Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy (HIPEC) have been developed recently. The purpose of this study was to assess early and long-term survival in patients treated with this strategy. PATIENTS AND METHODS A retrospective cohort multicentric study from French centres was performed. All consecutive patients with advanced and recurrent EOC treated with CRS and HIPEC were included. RESULTS The study included 566 patients from 13 centres who underwent 607 procedures between 1991 and 2010. There were 92 patients with advanced EOC (first-line treatment), and 474 patients with recurrent EOC. A complete cytoreductive surgery was performed in 74.9% of patients. Mortality and grades 3 to 4 morbidity rates were 0.8% and 31.3%, respectively. The median overall survivals were 35.4 months and 45.7 months for advanced and recurrent EOC, respectively. There was no significant difference in overall survival between patients with chemosensitive and with chemoresistant recurrence. Peritoneal Cancer Index (PCI) that evaluated disease extent was the strongest independent prognostic factor for overall and disease-free survival in all groups. CONCLUSION For advanced and recurrent EOC, curative therapeutic approach combining optimal CRS and HIPEC should be considered as it may achieve long-term survival in patients with a severe prognosis disease, even in patients with chemoresistant disease. PCI should be used for patient's selection.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Clinical efficacy of B-ultrasound-guided and laparoscopy-assisted continuous hyperthermic intraperitoneal perfusion chemotherapy (CHIPC) for treatment of malignant ascites was investigated. METHODS Sixty-two patients with malignant ascites induced by ovarian or gastrointestinal cancers were randomly treated with B-ultrasound-guided CHIPC (therapeutic group) or laparoscopy-assisted CHIPC (control group) performed at the same center. Hospitalization costs and surgical duration were evaluated. Follow-up was conducted for 21 months with B-ultrasound or computed tomography at least once per month for assessment of ascites amount and tumor progression. Clinical efficacy was assessed by modified World Health Organization criteria. Survival time, Karnofsky performance score (KPS) of quality of life (QOL), and complications were recorded for all patients. RESULTS Overall condition, primary disease type, and ascites amounts were comparable between groups. Significantly shorter mean duration of perfusion catheter placement (35 vs. 85 min) and mean hospitalization cost (36,000 vs. 55,000 ¥/patient) were observed in the therapeutic group than the control group (P < 0.01). Significantly different KPS scores were not observed before or after CHIPC (23.13 vs. 22.64 %) in both groups (P > 0.05). No significant differences in objective remission rates of malignant ascites (93.75 vs. 93.34 %), median survival times (9 vs. 8 months), or stamp hole metastasis rates (18.75 vs. 18.15 %) were observed between groups (P > 0.05). CONCLUSIONS B-ultrasound-guided and laparoscopy-assisted CHIPC have similar clinical efficacy for improving QOL and prolonging patient survival. B-ultrasound-guided CHIPC may, however, shorten operation times and reduce hospitalization costs, making the treatment available to a broader patient population, although port hole metastasis remains an issue.

Abstract
The outcome of ovarian cancer remains poor with conventional therapy. Intraperitoneal chemotherapy has some advantages over systemic chemotherapy, including favorable pharmacokinetics and optimal treatment timing. Intraoperative hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) provides improved exposure of the entire seroperitoneal surface to the agent and utilizes the direct cytoxic and drug-enhancing effect of hyperthermia. While standard normothermic, nonintraoperative, intraperitoneal chemotherapy has been demonstrated to be beneficial in randomized trials and meta-analyses, there are no data from randomized HIPEC trials available yet. Cautious extrapolation of data from standard normothermic, nonintraoperative, intraperitoneal chemotherapy and data from Phase II and nonrandomized comparative studies suggest that HIPEC delivered at the time of surgery for ovarian cancer has definite potential. Data from ongoing randomized HIPEC trials to adequately answer the question of whether the addition of HIPEC actually prolongs survival in patients with peritoneal dissemination of primary and recurrent ovarian cancer are awaited in the near future.

Abstract
Epithelial ovarian cancer is a peritoneal surface malignancy that most often presents with spread of disease within the peritoneal cavity. Overall 5-year survival is around 50% and progress in improving outcomes is slow. Among other areas of research, hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) provides a promising option. This article reviews the current status of treatment of epithelial ovarian cancer, experience with HIPEC to date, and future directions.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess the efficacy and morbidity and mortality of cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) in recurrent epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC). DESIGN A retrospective study conducted using information extracted from a multi-institutional prospective database on peritoneal surface malignancies (PSMs). Setting Four Italian centres specializing in locoregional treatment of PSM. POPULATION Patients with recurrent EOC. METHODS Fifty-six patients underwent 57 combined procedures. CRS was performed using peritonectomy procedures and HIPEC using the closed-abdomen technique with cisplatin and doxorubicin or cisplatin and mitomycin-C. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS), morbidity and mortality rates. RESULTS The median age of the patients was 55.2 years (range 30-75 years). The median peritoneal cancer index was 15.2 (range 4-30). Forty-seven patients had microscopic residual disease (completeness of cytoreduction, CC-0), seven had residual disease ≤2.5 mm (CC-1) and one had residual disease >2.5 mm (CC>2). Major complications occurred in 15 patients (26.3%), and procedure-related mortality occurred in three patients (5.3%). The median follow-up time was 23.1 months. The median OS and PFS were 25.7 (95% CI 20.3-31.0) and 10.8 (95% CI 5.4-16.2) months, respectively. The 5-year OS and PFS were 23% and 7%, respectively. Independent prognostic factors affecting OS according to the multivariate analysis were Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status, preoperative serum albumin, and completeness of cytoreduction. CONCLUSIONS Patients with recurrent EOC treated with CRS and HIPEC showed promising results in terms of outcome. The combined treatment strategy could benefit subsets of patients wider than that defined for conventional secondary debulking surgery without HIPEC. These data warrant further evaluation in randomised clinical trials.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Epithelial ovarian carcinoma is the main cause of death from gynaecological cancers in the western world. The initial response rate to the frontline therapy is high. However, the prognosis of persistent and recurrent disease remains poor. During the two past decades, a new therapeutic approach to peritoneal carcinomatosis has been developed, combining maximal cytoreductive effort with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC). METHODS A retrospective, multicentric study of 246 patients with recurrent or persistent ovarian cancer, treated by cytoreductive surgery and HIPEC in two French centers between 1991 and 2008, was performed. RESULTS An optimal cytoreductive surgery was possible in 92.2 % of patients. Mortality and morbidity rates were 0.37 % and 11.6 %, respectively. The overall median survival was 48.9 months. There was no significant difference in overall survival in patients with persistent or recurrent disease. In multivariate analysis, performance status was a significant prognostic factor in patients with extensive peritoneal carcinomatosis (peritoneal cancer index >10). CONCLUSIONS Salvage therapy combining optimal cytoreductive surgery and HIPEC is feasible and may achieve long-term survival in highly selected patients with recurrent ovarian carcinoma, including those with platinum resistant disease, with acceptable morbidity.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cytoreductive surgery (CS) combined with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) was developed as locoregional treatment for primary or secondary peritoneal tumors. The role of laparoscopy over several stages of diagnosis and the treatment of the patients affected by peritoneal carcinomatosis and selected for CS + HIPEC shows some peculiarities, and their potential application in this field is not fully known. Our aim was to review and summarize the applications, the results, and the future directions of laparoscopy in the management of the patients affected by carcinomatosis and scheduled for CS + HIPEC. METHODS Appropriate keywords were adopted to identify the relevant studies on this topic in PubMed/Medline electronic databases. RESULTS The role of laparoscopy in diagnosis and staging of patients selected for CS + HIPEC seems to have a great but probably underestimated potential. Laparoscopic CS + HIPEC is technically feasible with an acceptable morbidity profile, especially in patients with low tumor load. In selected patients with malignant ascites, laparoscopic HIPEC achieves a good palliative effect, with a low morbidity profile. CONCLUSIONS Laparoscopy plays a partially explored role in diagnosis and staging of patients selected for CS + HIPEC. The use of laparoscopic HIPEC with an adjuvant, curative, or palliative intent seems feasible, but further studies are required in order to explore and validate all potential indications. For all these reasons, it would be advisable to provide every HIPEC center with specific laparoscopic skills.

Abstract
To minimize invasive surgery, we employed B ultrasound to guide the placement of the catheters used in continuous circulatory hyperthermic intraperitoneal perfusion chemotherapy (CHIPC) in malignant ascites treatment. Thirty-two patients with malignant ascites were treated with CHIPC guided by B-mode ultrasound. Ascites were originally from ovarian cancer (11 cases), gastric cancer (10 cases), colorectal cancer (9 cases) and pancreatic cancer (2 cases). The CHIPC was carried out at 43˚C for 90 min with 0.9% saline solution as a carrier containing cisplatin and doxorubicin or mitomycin-C as therapeutic reagents depending on the type of the primary tumor. The therapeutic efficacy, postoperative complications and survival period of these patients were assessed with follow-up examinations. Among all participates to be assessed with ascites, 26 and 4 patients showed complete remission (CR) and partial remission (PR) respectively, with an objective remission rate (ORR) of 93.75%. The KPS scores were elevated by 23.1±9.0 after 3 sessions of ultrasound guided CHIPC and the quality of life (QOF) of patients was significantly improved (p<0.01). The median survival time was 9 months and 18 patients survived between 3 and 30 months after CHIPC treatment. Additionally, patients with different types of cancers significantly differed in the survival time (p<0.01). A novel approach of using B ultrasound guided CHIPC for the treatment of malignant ascites demonstrated satisfactory outcomes. The approach shows benefit in minimizing invasive surgery, improving the patient QOF and prolonging survival time.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Diagnosis and treatment of ovarian cancer (OC) entail severe symptom burden and a significant loss of quality of life (QOL). Somatic and psychological impairments may persist well beyond active therapy. Although essential for optimal symptom management as well as for the interpretation of treatment outcomes, knowledge on the course of QOL-related issues is scarce. This study aimed at assessing the course of depressive symptoms, anxiety, fatigue and QOL in patients with OC over the course of chemotherapy until early after-care. METHODS 23 patients were assessed longitudinally (eight time points) with regard to symptom burden (depression, anxiety, fatigue, and QOL) by means of patient-reported outcome instruments (HADS, MFI-20, EORTC QLQ-C30/-OV28) and clinician ratings (HAMA/D) at each chemotherapy cycle and at the first two aftercare visits. RESULTS Statistically significant decrease over time was found for depressive symptoms and anxiety as well as for all fatigue scales. With regard to QOL, results indicated significant increase for 11 of 15 QOL scales, best for Social (effect size = 1.95; p < 0.001), Emotional (e.s. = 1.62; p < 0.001) and Physical Functioning (e.s. = 1.47; p < 0.001). Abdominal Symptoms (e.s. = 1.01; p = 0.009) decreased, Attitudes towards Disease and Treatment (e.s. = 1.80; p < 0.001) improved significantly over time. Analysis of Sexual Functioning was not possible due to a high percentage of missing responses (61.9%). CONCLUSIONS The present study underlines the importance of longitudinal assessment of QOL in order to facilitate the identification of symptom burden in OC patients. We found that patients show high levels of fatigue, anxiety and depressive symptoms and severely impaired QOL post-surgery (i.e. at start of chemotherapy) but condition improves considerably throughout chemotherapy reaching nearly general population symptoms levels until aftercare.

Abstract
Epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) is the leading cause of gynecological cancer death in the United States. Cisplatin is a DNA damaging agent initially effective against EOC but limited by resistance. P53 plays a critical role in cellular response to DNA damage and has been implicated in EOC response to platinum chemotherapy. In this study, we examined the role of p53 status in EOC response to a novel combination of cisplatin, sodium arsenite, and hyperthermia. Human EOC cells were treated with cisplatin ± 20μM sodium arsenite at 37°C or 39°C for 1 h. Sodium arsenite ± hyperthermia sensitized wild-type p53-expressing (A2780, A2780/CP70, OVCA 420, OVCA 429, and OVCA 433) EOC cells to cisplatin. Hyperthermia sensitized p53-null SKOV-3 and p53-mutant (OVCA 432 and OVCAR-3) cells to cisplatin. P53 small interfering RNA (siRNA) transfection abrogated sodium arsenite sensitization effect. XPC, a critical DNA damage recognition protein in global genome repair pathway, was induced by cisplatin only in wild-type p53-expressing cells. Cotreatment with sodium arsenite ± hyperthermia attenuated cisplatin-induced XPC in wild-type p53-expressing cells. XPC siRNA transfection sensitized wild-type p53-expressing cells to cisplatin, suggesting that sodium arsenite ± hyperthermia attenuation of XPC is a mechanism by which wild-type p53-expressing cells are sensitized to cisplatin. Hyperthermia ± sodium arsenite enhanced cellular and DNA accumulation of platinum in wild-type p53-expressing cells. Only hyperthermia enhanced platinum accumulation in p53-null cells. In conclusion, sodium arsenite ± hyperthermia sensitizes wild-type p53-expressing EOC cells to cisplatin by suppressing DNA repair protein XPC and increasing cellular and DNA platinum accumulation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To study the risks of haemodynamic instability, and the possible occurrence of spinal haematoma, meningitis and epidural abscess when epidural analgesia is performed for cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC). METHODS We retrospectively analyzed the data of 35 patients treated by HIPEC with oxaliplatin or cisplatin. An epidural catheter was inserted before induction of general anaesthesia. Postoperatively, a continuous epidural infusion of ropivacain, then a patient-controlled epidural analgesia were started. RESULTS The epidural catheter was used peroperatively before HIPEC in 12 subjects (34%), and after HIPEC in 23 subjects (66%). The median dose of ropivacain given peroperatively in the epidural catheter was 40 mg (30-75). Norepinephrin was used in two subjects (6%) peroperatively (median infusion rate 0.325 μg/kg per minute [0.32-0.33]), and in four subjects (11%) in the postoperative 24 hours. No spinal haematoma, meningitis or epidural abscess were noted. Five subjects (14%) had a thrombopenia or a prothrombin time less than 60% before catheter removal. Two subjects (6%) had a leukopenia before catheter removal. No thrombopenia or blood coagulation disorders were recorded the day of catheter removal. CONCLUSION In this series of 35 patients, the use of epidural analgesia for HIPEC does not seem to be associated with a worse risk of haemodynamic instability, spinal haematoma, meningitis or epidural abscess. HIPEC with platinum salt is not incompatible with the safety of epidural analgesia, with an optimized fluid management peroperatively and the following of perimedullary anesthesia practice guidelines.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) is the leading cause of gynecologic cancer death in the USA. Recurrence rates are high after front-line therapy and most patients eventually die from platinum (Pt) - resistant disease. Cisplatin resistance is associated with increased nucleotide excision repair (NER), decreased mismatch repair (MMR) and decreased platinum uptake. The objective of this study is to investigate how a novel combination of sodium arsenite (NaAsO2) and hyperthermia (43°C) affect mechanisms of cisplatin resistance in ovarian cancer. METHODS We established a murine model of metastatic EOC by intraperitoneal injection of A2780/CP70 human ovarian cancer cells into nude mice. We developed a murine hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy model to treat the mice. Mice with peritoneal metastasis were perfused for 1 h with 3 mg/kg cisplatin ± 26 mg/kg NaAsO2 at 37 or 43°C. Tumors and tissues were collected at 0 and 24 h after treatment. RESULTS Western blot analysis of p53 and key NER proteins (ERCC1, XPC and XPA) and MMR protein (MSH2) suggested that cisplatin induced p53, XPC and XPA and suppressed MSH2 consistent with resistant phenotype. Hyperthermia suppressed cisplatin-induced XPC and prevented the induction of XPA by cisplatin, but it had no effect on Pt uptake or retention in tumors. NaAsO2 prevented XPC induction by cisplatin; it maintained higher levels of MSH2 in tumors and enhanced initial accumulation of Pt in tumors. Combined NaAsO2 and hyperthermia decreased cisplatin-induced XPC 24 h after perfusion, maintained higher levels of MSH2 in tumors and significantly increased initial accumulation of Pt in tumors. ERCC1 levels were generally low except for NaAsO2 co-treatment with cisplatin. Systemic Pt and arsenic accumulation for all treatment conditions were in the order: kidney > liver = spleen > heart > brain and liver > kidney = spleen > heart > brain respectively. Metal levels generally decreased in systemic tissues within 24 h after treatment. CONCLUSION NaAsO2 and/or hyperthermia have the potential to sensitize tumors to cisplatin by inhibiting NER, maintaining functional MMR and enhancing tumor platinum uptake.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To analyze the outcomes of cytoreductive surgery and HIPEC in patients with peritoneal carcinomatosis from ovarian cancer. METHODS Fifty-three patients with peritoneal carcinomatosis from primary (45 cases) and recurrent (8 cases) ovarian cancer were previously treated by systemic chemotherapy with platinum and taxanes and then submitted to surgical cytoreduction and HIPEC (cisplatin and mitomycin-C) with a closed abdomen technique. The median follow-up period was 27 months (range: 3-107). RESULTS At the end of operation a complete cytoreduction (CCR-0) was obtained in 37 patients (70%). Major morbidity occurred in 12 patients (23%); reoperation was necessary in 2 patients (4%), and no postoperative mortality was observed. Overall 5-year survival probability was 55%; it was 71% in CCR-0, 44% in CCR-1, and none in patients with CCR-2 or CCR-3 residual tumor (log-rank test: P = 0.017). The cumulative risk of recurrence in 37 CCR-0 cases was 54% at 5 years from operation. CONCLUSIONS The results of our study indicate the feasibility and the potential benefit of a protocol including systemic chemotherapy, surgical cytoreduction and HIPEC in patients with peritoneal carcinomatosis from ovarian cancer. A phase III trial to compare this approach with conventional treatment is needed.

Abstract
Favorable oncological outcomes have been reported in several trials with the introduction of Cytoreductive Surgery (CRS) and Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy (HIPEC) in the treatment of Advanced Epithelial Ovarian Cancer (EOC). However most of the studies testing the combined approach are observational and have been conducted in inhomogeneous series so that the evidence supporting the performance of this combined treatment is still poor. Median Overall and Disease Free Survivals of up to 64 months and 57 months, respectively have been reported. Although a rate of morbidity of up to 40% has been observed in some series the CRS + HIPEC continues to gain an increased popularity. Several prospective randomized trials are ongoing using the procedure in various time points of the disease. In this review several issues such as the impact of cytoreduction and residual disease (RD) on outcomes as well as the role of HIPEC will be updated from the literature evidence. Some controversial points HIPEC related will also be discussed. Recent experiences regarding the introduction of a more aggressive surgical approach to upper abdomen to resect peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC) allowed increased rates of optimal cytoreduction and has demonstrated an apparent better outcome. This evidence associated with the positive results phase III trial testing normothermic intraperitoneal as first-line chemotherapy is guiding some investigators to propose the CRS + HIPEC in the primary setting. Several prospective phase II and III trials have recently been launched to validate the role of the combined treatment in various time points of disease natural evolution.

Abstract
Malignant ascites is defined as a condition in which fluid containing cancer cells accumulates in the abdomen. The cancers most commonly associated to ascites are ovarian (37%), pancreato-biliary (21%), gastric (18%), oesophageal (4%), colorectal (4%), and breast (3%). Treatment of malignant ascites remains a challenge. In the majority of patients systemic chemotherapy is ineffective and diuretics and paracentesis are still the only approaches, but new promising option are appearing, as cytoreductive debulking surgery and intraperitoneal (IP) or intravenous biological (target) therapies. More promising, after the recognition of potential epithelial targets as Epithelial Cell Adhesion Molecule (EpCAM), are the trifunctional antibodies able to bind these cell adhesion molecules and, at the same, time the immune system cells. These agents have been developed for malignant ascites with the aim also to prolong the need for subsequent paracentesis. So patients with malignant ascites may look at the future with hope and growing optimism.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess the feasibility and efficacy of cytoreductive surgery (CRS) followed by hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) without adjuvant chemotherapy for relapsed or persistent advanced ovarian cancer. METHODS This observational study included stage IIIC ovarian cancer patients due to undergo CRS (interval debulking or recurrent surgery) followed by HIPEC with oxaliplatin (460 mg/m2) for 30 min. RESULTS Twenty-two patients (12 interval debulking procedures and 10 recurrence procedures) were enrolled between September 2003 and September 2007. HIPEC was not performed in four patients because of operative findings. No patient received adjuvant chemotherapy after HIPEC. Patients were followed up routinely until recurrence or death. Median peritoneal cancer index at surgery was 6 (range: 1-18). Before HIPEC, all patients had completeness of cytoreduction scores of 0 or 1. Median length of hospital stay was 21 days (range 13-65). Ten patients (55.6%) had CTCAE grade 3-4 toxicity, including three patients (16.7%) requiring reoperation. No postoperative mortality was observed. With a median follow-up of 38 months (CI 95% 23.8-39.2), median overall survival was not reached. The 3-year overall survival rate was 83% (CI 95% 54-95). Median disease-free survival was, respectively, 16.9 months (CI 95% 10.2-23.2) and 10 months (CI 95% 4.5-11.3) for patients undergoing interval debulking or recurrence surgery. CONCLUSION HIPEC without adjuvant chemotherapy is both feasible and safe, but with a high rate of grade 3-5 toxicity. Survival results are encouraging but should be confirmed in a randomized trial.

Abstract
The current treatment of peritoneal surface malignancies (PSMs) is moving from a nihilistic approach, into a combined modality approach offering selected patients long-term survival. As primary PSM are rare, extrapolation of data from clinical trials of related disease is necessary to develop treatment guidelines. Secondary PSM are more common, and therefore, treatment guidelines should be developed based on prospective clinical trials. We reviewed the published and ongoing clinical trials studying the treatment of PSM.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Advanced and recurrent ovarian cancer results in extensive spread of tumor on the peritoneal surfaces of the abdomen and pelvis. We collectively review studies in the literature that report the efficacy of cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) for ovarian cancer peritoneal carcinomatosis. METHODS An electronic search of all relevant studies published in peer-reviewed journals before May 2009 was performed on three databases. The quality of each study was independently assessed and classified according to the time point of HIPEC use in various setting of ovarian cancer from the consensus statement of the Peritoneal Surface Oncology Group. Clinical efficacy was synthesized through a narrative review with full tabulation of the results of each included study. RESULTS Nineteen studies each of more than ten patients reporting treatment results of HIPEC of patients with both advanced and recurrent ovarian cancer were included and data were extracted. All studies were observational case series. The overall rate of severe perioperative morbidity ranged from 0 to 40% and mortality rate varied from 0 to 10%. The overall median survival following treatment with HIPEC ranged from 22 to 64 months with a median disease-free survival ranging from 10 to 57 months. In patients with optimal cytoreduction, a 5-year survival rate ranging from 12 to 66% could be achieved. CONCLUSION Despite the heterogeneity of the studies reviewed, current evidence suggest that complete CRS and HIPEC may be a feasible option with potential benefits that are comparable with the current standard of care. A randomized trial is required to establish the role of HIPEC in ovarian cancer.

Abstract
Overall outcomes for women with epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) remain relatively poor, and superior methods of treatment are needed. EOC is a peritoneal surface malignancy that is relatively sensitive to chemotherapy agents, making it a good target for i.p. chemotherapy. Because there is strong laboratory data demonstrating the ability of hyperthermia to increase the efficacy of chemotherapeutic agents, the addition of hyperthermia to i.p. chemotherapy, hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC), makes theoretical sense. This article reviews the current literature and discusses the possible role for HIPEC in EOC at significant natural history time points: front line, at the time of interval debulking, in consolidation, and for recurrent disease. The conclusion is that much further research is needed but that HIPEC could sensibly be researched at all the natural history time points in EOC.

Secondary cytoreduction plus oxaliplatin-based HIPEC in platinum-sensitive recurrent ovarian cancer patients: a pilot study. Gynecol Oncol 2009; 113:335-40.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To assess feasibility, complications and efficacy of secondary surgical cytoreduction (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) in a selected group of platinum-sensitive recurrent ovarian cancer patients. METHODS Recurrent ovarian cancer patients with a platinum-free interval of at least 6 months were prospectively enrolled. After complete CRS they were submitted to intraperitoneal perfusion of oxaplatinum (460 mg/m(2)) heated to 41.5 degrees C for 30 min. Then they received systemic chemotherapy with taxotere 75 mg/m(2) and oxaliplatin 100 mg/m(2) for 6 cycles. Patients were followed up routinely until recurrence or death. RESULTS Twenty-five recurrent ovarian cancer patients were valuable for the study. The median Platinum Free Interval (PFI) was 25 months (range 7-67). The majority of the patients (76%) had diffuse carcinosis. Nobody had ascites. An optimal residual disease was obtained in all patients. The median duration of CRS+HIPEC was 312 min (range 138-619). Median intensive care unit (ICU) stay was 2 days (1-6), median hospital stay was 13 days (7-30). Post-operative major complications were observed in 7 patients (28%). Post-operative mortality was 0%. With a median follow-up time of 18 months (range 3-38), 24 patients (96%) are alive, but seven women (28%) have relapsed. CONCLUSIONS Adequate pre-operative selection can improve feasibility of CRS and HIPEC. Morbidity rate is comparable to aggressive cytoreduction without HIPEC. Although associated with some post-operative morbidity, long-term results are encouraging, waiting for larger series and longer follow-up data.

Hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy after extensive cytoreductive surgery in patients with primary advanced epithelial ovarian cancer: interim analysis of a phase II study. Ann Surg Oncol 2009; 16:993-1000. [PMID: 19169758 DOI: 10.1245/s10434-008-0299-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 42] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/23/2008] [Revised: 11/13/2008] [Accepted: 11/18/2008] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The objective of the current study was to evaluate the toxicities and treatment response of intraoperative hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) in patients with advanced epithelial ovarian cancer. METHODS Intraoperative HIPEC (cisplatin 75 mg/m(2), 41.5 degrees C, 90 min) was performed in 30 patients with residual tumor of <1 cm after cytoreductive surgery between January 2007 and February 2008. All the patients received adjuvant chemotherapy with combination platinum and taxane. Adverse events and responses to primary treatment were evaluated and scored as follows: grade I, observation; grade II, medical treatment; grade III, intervention; and grade IV, reoperation or admission to the intensive care unit. RESULTS No deaths or grade IV morbidities were observed. One hundred seven adverse events were identified in 30 patients (grade I, 40; grade II, 46; grade III, 21). The most common adverse events affected the hematologic system (n = 26), followed by the gastrointestinal system (n = 23). Most adverse events were anemias requiring transfusion and nausea/vomiting requiring medication. Twenty-eight patients (93%) experienced complete remission, and two patients (7%) had progressive disease. CONCLUSION HIPEC after extensive cytoreductive surgery for ovarian cancer is a procedure with acceptable morbidity that patients can tolerate. More follow-up is needed to determine the effect of HIPEC on survival.

Abstract
Background Peritoneal tumor dissemination arising from colorectal cancer, appendiceal cancer, gastric cancer, gynecologic malignancies or peritoneal mesothelioma is a common sign of advanced tumor stage or disease recurrence and mostly associated with poor prognosis. Methods and results In the present review article preoperative workup, surgical technique, postoperative morbidity and mortality rates, oncological outcome and quality of life after CRS and HIPEC are reported regarding the different tumor entities. Conclusion Cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) provide a promising combined treatment strategy for selected patients with peritoneal carcinomatosis that can improve patient survival and quality of life. The extent of intraperitoneal tumor dissemination and the completeness of cytoreduction are the leading predictors of postoperative patient outcome. Thus, consistent preoperative diagnostics and patient selection are crucial to obtain a complete macroscopic cytoreduction (CCR-0/1).
