Abstract
Doxorubicin (DOX) has been an effective antitumor agent for human liver cancer cells; however, an overdose might lead to major side effects appearing in clinical applications. In this work, we present a strategy of combining DOX and blue light (BL) irradiation for the antitumor treatment of HepG2 cells (one typical human liver cancer cell line). It is demonstrated that synergetic DOX and BL can significantly reduce cell proliferation and increase the apoptotic rate of HepG2 cells in comparison to individual DOX treatment. The additional BL irradiation is further helpful for enhancing the inhibition of cell migration and invasion. Analyses of reactive oxygen species (ROS) level and Western blotting reveal that the strategy results in more ROS accumulation, mitochondrial damage, and the upregulation of proapoptotic protein (Bcl-2) and downregulation of antiapoptotic protein (Bax). In addition to the improved therapeutic effect, the non-contact BL irradiation is greatly helpful for reducing the dosage of DOX, and subsequently reduces the side effects caused by the DOX drug. These findings offer a novel perspective for the therapeutic approach toward liver cancer with high efficiency and reduced side effects.

Cancers (Basel) 2023; 15:4271. [PMID: 37686547 PMCID: PMC10486645 DOI: 10.3390/cancers15174271] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/30/2023] [Revised: 08/21/2023] [Accepted: 08/21/2023] [Indexed: 09/10/2023] Open
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) is primarily confined to the peritoneal cavity. When primary complete surgery is not possible, neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) is provided; however, the peritoneum-plasma barrier hinders the drug effect. The intraperitoneal administration of chemotherapy could eliminate residual microscopic peritoneal tumor cells and increase this effect by hyperthermia. Intraperitoneal hyperthermic chemotherapy (HIPEC) after interval cytoreductive surgery could improve outcomes in terms of disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS). MATERIALS AND METHODS A multicenter, retrospective observational study of advanced EOC patients who underwent interval cytoreductive surgery alone (CRSnoH) or interval cytoreductive surgery plus HIPEC (CRSH) was carried out in Spain between 07/2012 and 12/2021. A total of 515 patients were selected. Progression-free survival (PFS) and OS analyses were performed. The series of patients who underwent CRSH or CRSnoH was balanced regarding the risk factors using a statistical analysis technique called propensity score matching. RESULTS A total of 170 patients were included in each subgroup. The complete surgery rate was similar in both groups (79.4% vs. 84.7%). The median PFS times were 16 and 13 months in the CRSH and CRSnoH groups, respectively (Hazard ratio (HR) 0.74; 95% CI, 0.58-0.94; p = 0.031). The median OS times were 56 and 50 months in the CRSH and CRSnoH groups, respectively (HR, 0.88; 95% CI, 0.64-1.20; p = 0.44). There was no increase in complications in the CRSH group. CONCLUSION The addition of HIPEC after interval cytoreductive surgery is safe and increases DFS in advanced EOC patients.

Effectiveness of Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy Associated with Cytoreductive Surgery in the Treatment of Advanced Ovarian Cancer: Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis. J Pers Med 2023; 13:jpm13020258.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The use of hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) as a treatment for epithelial ovarian cancer remains controversial. Our study aims to analyze the overall survival and disease-free survival for the use of HIPEC as a treatment for advanced epithelial ovarian cancer after neoadjuvant chemotherapy. METHODS A systematic review and meta-analysis was carried out using PubMed, Cochrane, Web of Science, and ClinicalTrials.gov. A total of six studies were used, comprising a total of 674 patients. RESULTS The results of our meta-analysis of all studies analyzed together (observational and randomized controlled trials (RCT)) did not achieve significant results. Contrary to the OS (HR = 0.56, 95% IC = 0.33-0.95, p = 0.03) and DFS (HR = 0.61, 95% IC = 0.43-0.86, p < 0.01) of the RCT analyzed separately, a clear impact on survival was suggested. The subgroup analysis showed that studies making use of higher temperatures (≥42 °C) for a shorter period of time (≤60 min) achieved better results for both OS and DFS, as well as the use of cisplatin as the form of chemotherapy in HIPEC. Moreover, the use of HIPEC did not increase high-grade complications. CONCLUSIONS The addition of HIPEC to cytoreductive surgery demonstrates an improvement in OS and DFS for patients with epithelial ovarian cancer in advanced stages, without an increase in the number of complications. The use of cisplatin as chemotherapy in HIPEC obtained better results.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Cisplatin (CDDP)-containing hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) is frequently applied in selected patients with peritoneal malignancies derived from ovarian cancer, gastric cancer, and primary peritoneal mesothelioma. HIPEC with CDDP increases perioperative morbidity, in particular by inducing acute kidney injury (AKI). Factors contributing to occurrence of AKI after intraperitoneal perfusion with CDDP have not been sufficiently evaluated.
Patients and Methods
Data from 63 patients treated with a CDDP-containing HIPEC regimen were retrospectively analyzed concerning demographics, underlying disease, surgery, and HIPEC details to evaluate risk factors of AKI. A preclinical rat perfusion model was applied to assess the influence of temperature, concentration, perfusate volume, perfusion flow rate, and extent of peritonectomy on drug absorption upon intraperitoneal CDDP perfusion.
Results
AKI occurred in 66.1% of patients undergoing CDDP-containing HIPEC, with total intraoperative fluid influx being a negative and the extent of parietal peritonectomy being a positive independent predictor of postoperative AKI. In a preclinical model, bilateral anterior parietal peritonectomy significantly increased systemic CDDP absorption by 1.6 to 2-fold. CDDP plasma levels in animals were significantly higher after both perfusion with increased CDDP perfusate concentrations and bilateral anterior parietal peritonectomy.
Conclusion
CDDP-containing HIPEC is associated with relevant morbidity owing to its systemic toxicity. Extent of parietal peritonectomy is an independent predictor of AKI. CDDP dose reduction should be considered in case of extensive parietal peritonectomy. Cytostatic drug concentrations in HIPEC perfusate should be paid more attention to than total dose per body surface area. Further clinical studies are needed to confirm the presented preclinical findings.

Abstract
Appendiceal cancer is rare and encompasses a diverse group of tumours ranging from low-grade appendiceal mucinous neoplasms to high-grade adenocarcinomas. Appendiceal cancers often spread to the peritoneal cavity causing extensive mucinous dissemination and peritoneal metastases. Prognosis varies with histological subtype. Cytoreductive surgery and heated intraperitoneal chemotherapy is well-established as the most effective treatment achieving long-term survival in some patients. Chemotherapy regimens used to treat appendiceal cancer are extrapolated from the colorectal cancer setting, but disease biology differs and outcomes are inferior. The role of chemotherapy in the treatment of appendiceal cancer remains poorly defined. There is an urgent need to develop novel tailored treatment strategies in the perioperative and unresectable setting. This review aims to evaluate the literature for patients who received intraperitoneal and systemic chemotherapy for appendiceal cancers.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) is performed with a wide variation in methodology, drugs, and other elements vital to the procedure. Adoption of a limited number of regimens could increase the collective experience of peritoneal oncologists, make comparison between studies more meaningful, and lead to a greater acceptance of results from randomized trials. This study aimed to determine the possibility of standardizing HIPEC methodology and regimens and to identify the best method of performing such a standardization. METHODS A critical review of preclinical and clinical studies evaluating the pharmacokinetic aspects of different HIPEC drugs and drug regimens, the impact of hyperthermia, and the efficacy of various HIPEC regimens as well as studies comparing different regimens was performed. RESULTS The preclinical and clinical data were limited, and studies comparing different regimens were scarce. Many of the regimens were neither supported by preclinical rationale or data nor validated by a dose-escalating formal phase 1 trial. All the regimens were based on pharmacokinetic data and did not take chemosensitivity of peritoneal metastases into account. Personalized medicine approaches such as patient-derived tumor organoids could offer a solution to this problem, although clinical validation is likely to be challenging. CONCLUSIONS Apart from randomized trials, more translational research and phases 1 and 2 studies are needed. While waiting for better preclinical and clinical evidence, the best way to minimize heterogeneity is by an expert consensus that aims to identify and define a limited number of regimens for each indication and primary site. The choice of regimen then can be tailored to the patient profile and its expected toxicity and the methodology according regional factors.

Abstract
Pressurized Intra-Peritoneal Aerosol Chemotherapy (PIPAC) is a novel laparoscopic intraperitoneal chemotherapy approach offered in selected patients affected by non-resectable peritoneal carcinomatosis. Drugs doses currently established for nebulization are very low: oxaliplatin (OXA) 120 mg/sm, cisplatin (CDDP) 10.5 mg/sm and doxorubicin (DXR) 2.1 mg/sm. A model-based approach for dose-escalation design in a single PIPAC procedure and subsequent dose escalation steps is planned. The starting dose of oxaliplatin is 100 mg/sm with a maximum estimated dose of 300 mg/sm; an escalation with overdose and under-dose control (for probability of toxicity less than 16% in case of under-dosing and probability of toxicity greater than 33% in case of overdosing) will be further applied. Cisplatin is used in association with doxorubicin: A two-dimensional dose-finding design is applied on the basis of the estimated dose limiting toxicity (DLT) at all combinations. The starting doses are 15 mg/sm for cisplatin and 3 mg/sm for doxorubicin. Safety is assessed according to Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE version 4.03). Secondary endpoints include radiological response according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumor (version 1.1) and pharmacokinetic analyses. This phase I study can provide the scientific basis to maximize the optimal dose of cisplatin, doxorubicin and oxaliplatin applied as PIPAC.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION A new treatment strategy involving cytoreductive surgery (CRS) combined with perioperative intraperitoneal (IP) chemotherapy was proposed in 1999 by the Peritoneal Surface Oncology Group International, and the strategy is now justified as a state-of-the-art treatment to improve the long-term survival of patients with peritoneal metastasis (PM). To achieve cure in the patients with PM, complete removal of macroscopic tumors and eradication of micrometastasis on the peritoneum, left after CRS are essential. Systemic chemotherapy is not indicated for the treatment of PM. In contrast, intraperitoneal (IP) chemotherapy brings about significantly higher locoregional dose intensity in the peritoneal cavity and subperitoneal tissues. In combination with anticancer drugs, hyperthermia enhances cytotoxicity against cancer cells. AREA COVERED This article provides a systematic overview of PM from various cancers including gastric, colorectal, small bowel, appendiceal cancer, and mesothelioma. It also includes all the essential aspects of therapy. EXPERT OPINION CRS plus perioperative intraperitoneal chemotherapy is safe with acceptable morbidity and mortality. It is justified as a standard treatment to improve the long-term survival of patients with PM and is now performed with curative intent for PM from various malignancies.

Pleura Peritoneum 2020; 5:20190031. [PMID: 32885035 PMCID: PMC7446256 DOI: 10.1515/pp-2019-0031] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/24/2019] [Accepted: 12/31/2019] [Indexed: 11/27/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The body surface area (BSA) is taken as a measure for the effective contact area for dosing in hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC). Currently, the pharmacokinetic effect of the reduced peritoneal surface area (PSA) after cytoreductive surgery (CRS) during HIPEC remains unclear. Here a proprietary software solution (PEritoneal SUrface CAlculator (PESUCA)) to quantify the resected PSA in patients with peritoneal surface malignancies (PSM) undergoing CRS and HIPEC is presented. METHODS The PESUCA tool was programmed as a desktop and online software solution. The applicability was evaluated in 36 patients. The programming-algorithm is briefly summarized as follows: (1) calculation of BSA, (2) correlation to PSA, (3) calculation of the relative proportion of 40 different anatomical regions to total PSA before CRS, (4) instantaneous input of each resected proportion in the 40 anatomical regions during CRS, and (5) determination of the resected and remaining PSA after CRS. RESULTS The proof of concept revealed a mean PSA of all patients before CRS of 18,741 ± 321 cm2 compared to 13,611 ± 485 cm2 after CRS (p<0.0001). Patients' supramesocolic and inframesocolic visceral and parietal peritoneal area before and after CRS procedure were quantitatively determined. CONCLUSIONS Here the first tool that enables detailed PSA quantification in patients with PSM undergoing CRS is presented. This makes the software a valuable contribution to ensue more accurate assessment and improved comparability of peritoneal disease extent. Furthermore, after external validation, PESUCA could be the basis for dose adjustment of intraperitoneal chemotherapy regimens based on the remaining PSA after CRS.

Overcoming Drug Resistance by Taking Advantage of Physical Principles: Pressurized Intraperitoneal Aerosol Chemotherapy (PIPAC). Cancers (Basel) 2019; 12:cancers12010034. [PMID: 31877647 PMCID: PMC7016575 DOI: 10.3390/cancers12010034] [Citation(s) in RCA: 38] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/13/2019] [Revised: 12/17/2019] [Accepted: 12/18/2019] [Indexed: 12/24/2022] Open
Abstract
Theoretical considerations as well as comprehensive preclinical and clinical data suggest that optimizing physical parameters of intraperitoneal drug delivery might help to circumvent initial or acquired resistance of peritoneal metastasis (PM) to chemotherapy. Pressurized Intraperitoneal Aerosol Chemotherapy (PIPAC) is a novel minimally invasive drug delivery system systematically addressing the current limitations of intraperitoneal chemotherapy. The rationale behind PIPAC is: (1) optimizing homogeneity of drug distribution by applying an aerosol rather than a liquid solution; (2) applying increased intraperitoneal hydrostatic pressure to counteract elevated intratumoral interstitial fluid pressure; (3) limiting blood outflow during drug application; (4) steering environmental parameters (temperature, pH, electrostatic charge etc.) in the peritoneal cavity for best tissue target effect. In addition, PIPAC allows repeated application and objective assessment of tumor response by comparing biopsies between chemotherapy cycles. Although incompletely understood, the reasons that allow PIPAC to overcome established chemoresistance are probably linked to local dose intensification. All pharmacological data published so far show a superior therapeutic ratio (tissue concentration/dose applied) of PIPAC vs. systemic administration, of PIPAC vs. intraperitoneal liquid chemotherapy, of PIPAC vs. Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy (HIPEC) or PIPAC vs. laparoscopic HIPEC. In the initial introduction phase, PIPAC has been used in patients who were quite ill and had already failed multiple treatment regimes, but it may not be limited to that group of patients in the future. Rapid diffusion of PIPAC in clinical practice worldwide supports its potential to become a game changer in the treatment of chemoresistant isolated PM of various origins.

Abstract
Peritoneal metastases may occur from a majority of cancers that occur within the abdomen or pelvis. When cancer spread to the peritoneal surfaces is documented, a decision regarding palliation versus an aggressive approach using cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic perioperative intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) must be made. This decision is dependent on a well-defined group of prognostic indicators. In addition to treatment, prevention of peritoneal metastases may be an option. The clinical and pathologic features of a primary cancer can be used to select perioperative treatments that may prevent cancer cells within the abdomen and pelvis from progressing to established peritoneal metastases. In some clinical situations with appendiceal and colorectal cancers, the clinical or histopathologic features may indicate that second-look surgery plus perioperative chemotherapy should occur. Peritoneal metastases should always be considered by the multidisciplinary team for treatment or prevention.

Abstract
Background: Cytoreductive surgery (CRS), followed by hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC), combines radical surgery with abdominal heated chemotherapy, constituting a multimodal treatment approach. Since clear standards for HIPEC conduct in colorectal carcinoma (CRC) are lacking, we aimed to provide a comprehensive structured survey. Data sources and study eligibility criteria: A systematic literature search was performed in PubMed, with keywords “HIPEC” and “colorectal cancer”, according to established guidelines. Articles were systematically screened, selecting 87 publications complemented by 48 publications identified through extended search for subsequent synthesis and evaluation, extracting inter alia details on used drugs, dosage, temperature, exposure times, and carrier solutions. Results: Compiled publications contained 171 reports on HIPEC conduct foremost with mitomycin C and oxaliplatin, but also other drugs and drug combinations, comprising at least 60 different procedures. We hence provide an overview of interconnections between HIPEC protocols, used drugs and carrier solutions as well as their volumes. In addition, HIPEC temperatures and dosing benchmarks, as well as an estimate of in vivo resulting drug concentrations are demonstrated. Conclusions and implications: Owing to recent developments, HIPEC conduct and practices need to be reassessed. Unfortunately, imprecise and lacking reporting is frequent, which is why minimal information requirements should be established for HIPEC and the introduction of final drug concentrations for comparability reasons seems sensible.

Abstract
Hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) is being used increasingly for peritoneal metastases. The distribution of intraperitoneal chemotherapy to target tissues remains poorly described. Access of intraperitoneal doxorubicin to mesenteric lymph nodes was available for determination by HPLC. Data suggests direct access of intraperitoneal doxorubicin to mesenteric lymph nodes in high concentration. High concentrations of intraperitoneal chemotherapy to mesenteric lymph nodes suggests expanded treatment options.
Background Intraperitoneal chemotherapy has been used extensively to treat cancers that metastasize to the peritoneal surfaces. In the operating room the intraperitoneal chemotherapy is administered with moderate heat. The chemotherapy is used after surgery when there is minimal residual disease. Alternatively, intraperitoneal chemotherapy can be used long-term in an attempt to prevent the progression of disease in patients at high risk for peritoneal metastases to occur during follow-up. Methods Hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) with doxorubicin was used to treat peritoneal metastases in two patients. These two patients required generous sampling of mesenteric lymph nodes because involvement of these lymph nodes was suspected on preoperative radiologic studies by computed tomography (CT). The lymph nodes, peritoneal fluid and plasma along with tumor tissue in one patient were subjected to a determination of doxorubicin chemotherapy concentrations by high pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC). Results The ratio of doxorubicin present in peritoneal fluid as compared to plasma was 80 in patient 1 and 50 in patient 2. There was an increased doxorubicin concentration within lymph nodes as compared to plasma. The accumulation of doxorubicin in lymph nodal tissue was 40 times that of plasma in patient 1 and 30 times that in patient 2. In patient 2, the concentration of doxorubicin in lymph nodes was very similar to the concentration of chemotherapy within tumor nodules. Conclusion Doxorubicin chemotherapy was not only present in peritoneal surface tissue but also a surprisingly high level was present in mesenteric lymph nodes in patients treated by HIPEC. This observation may have implications for interpreting clinical future studies performed with HIPEC. To our knowledge, this is the first time this pharmacologic information regarding intraperitoneal chemotherapy access to mesenteric lymph nodes has been reported.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The effects of Hyperthermic IntraPEritoneal Chemotherapy (HIPEC) and CytoReductive Surgery (CRS) for ovarian cancer patients remain controversial. METHODS A systematic review and meta-analysis was conducted using PubMed, Embase and Web of Science databases to investigate Overall Survival (OS), Disease Free Survival (DFS) and adverse effects between HIPEC and CRS group. RESULTS In our overall analysis (13 studies), patients in the HIPEC group exhibited a significantly improved OS (HR = 0.56, 95% CI = 0.41-0.76, P < 0.01) and DFS (HR = 0.61, 95% CI = 0.48-0.77, P < 0.01). Subgroup analysis revealed improved OS (HR = 0.57, 95% CI = 0.40-0.83, P = 0.04) and DFS (HR = 0.61, 95% CI = 0.47-0.80, P < 0.01) for primary ovarian cancer in favour of HIPEC group. However, recurrent ovarian cancer patients who received HIPEC exhibited only significantly improved OS (HR = 0.48, 95% CI = 0.24-0.96, P < 0.01) but not DFS (HR = 0.59, 95% CI = 0.33-1.08, P = 0.09). In addition, both significantly improved OS and DFS were also observed in patients who received HIPEC in the subgroups based on the following factors: studies published before 2015, studies with ≥100 total patients, a single drug used for HIPEC, 90-min HIPEC duration and a regimen of CRS plus HIPEC followed by chemotherapy. Moreover systematically reviewed toxicity, morbidity, mortality and long-term outcomes were tolerable after HIPEC. CONCLUSIONS The addition of HIPEC to CRS could significantly improve OS of ovarian cancer patients, albeit optimal drug regimen is not clear.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Peritoneal metastases may occur from a majority of cancers that occur within the abdomen or pelvis. When cancer spread to the peritoneal surfaces is documented, a decision regarding palliation vs. an aggressive approach using cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and perioperative intraperitoneal chemotherapy must be made. The perioperative chemotherapy may be hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) administered in the operating room or early postoperative intraperitoneal chemotherapy (EPIC) administered in the first 4 or 5 postoperative days. RECENT FINDINGS This decision is dependent on a well-defined group of prognostic indicators. In addition to treatment, the clinical and pathologic features of a primary cancer can be used to select perioperative treatments that may prevent cancer cells within the abdomen and pelvis from progressing to established peritoneal metastases. In some clinical situations with appendiceal and colorectal cancers, the clinical or histopathologic features may indicate that second-look surgery plus perioperative chemotherapy should occur.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) has been proposed as a treatment in ovarian cancer. A recently published RCT demonstrated that HIPEC prolongs disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) in ovarian cancer. The aim of the study was to investigate oncologic results of cytoreductive surgery+HIPEC compared with cytoreductive surgery alone in advanced primary ovarian cancer with a particular attention to the pattern of recurrence. METHODS This is a retrospective case control study with a propensity score (PS) matching of the patients. All the patients treated for primary advanced ovarian cancer who underwent interval surgery with or without HIPEC were collected; a PS was calculated in order to match cases to controls. RESULTS Among 77 eligible patients 56 patients were included in the study. Preoperative patients' characteristics were homogeneous. No difference in morbidity and mortality after surgery were recorded. DFS was not different among the 2 groups (13.2 vs. 13.9 months, p=0.454) but OS was better in patients treated with HIPEC with no median reached vs. 35.5 months (p=0.048). Patients treated with cytoreductive surgery alone were more likely to have a peritoneal recurrence (43% vs. 14%). CONCLUSION HIPEC seems to affect the relapse pattern with lesser peritoneal recurrence. This difference in relapse pattern seems to affect the OS with better results in patients treated with HIPEC. Further studies are needed to confirm these findings.

Abstract
Intraperitoneal chemotherapy is associated with a significant pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic benefit and can, alone or in combination with systemic chemotherapy (bidirectional chemotherapy), be used for treating primary and secondary peritoneal surface malignancies. Due to the peritoneal-plasma barrier, high intraperitoneal drug concentration can be achieved by intraperitoneal chemotherapy, whereas systemic concentration remains low. Bidirectional chemotherapy may provide in addition adequate drug concentrations from the side of the subperitoneal space to the peritoneal tumour nodules. Major pharmacological problems of intraperitoneal chemotherapy are limited tissue penetration and poor homogeneity of drug distribution to the entire seroperitoneal surface. Significant pharmacological determinants of intraperitoneal chemotherapy are choice of drug, drug dosage, solution volume, carrier solution, intra-abdominal pressure, temperature, duration, mode of administration, extent of peritonectomy and interindividual variability. Drugs most commonly applied for intraperitoneal chemotherapy include mitomycin C, cisplatin, carboplatin, oxaliplatin, irinotecan, 5-fluoruracil, gemcitabine, paclitaxel, docetaxel, doxorubicin, premetrexed and melphalan. The drugs and their doses that are used vary widely among centres. While the adequate drug choice for intraperitoneal and bidirectional chemotherapy is essential, randomized clinical trials to determine the most optimal drug or drug combination are lacking, and only eight retrospective comparative clinical studies are available. Further clinical pharmacological studies are required to determine the most effective drug regimen for intraperitoneal and bidirectional chemotherapy in various indications. In the future, reliable drug sensitivity testing and genetic profiling of peritoneal metastases will be needed for enabling patient-specific therapy.

Abstract
Although cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic perioperative chemotherapy (HIPEC) have not been shown to be effective by themselves, as a combined treatment they are now standard of care for peritoneal metastases from appendiceal cancer and from colorectal cancer as well as peritoneal mesothelioma. The timing of the HIPEC in relation to the CRS is crucial in that the HIPEC is to destroy minimal residual disease that remains following the CRS and prevent microscopic tumor emboli within the abdomen and pelvis from implanting within the resection site, within fibrinous clot, or within blood clot. Proper selection of chemotherapy agents is crucial to the long-term benefit of CRS and HIPEC. One must consider the response expected with the cancer chemotherapy agent, its area under the curve (AUC) ratio indicating the amount of dose intensity within the peritoneal space, and the drug retention within the peritoneal space for a prolonged exposure. Hyperthermia will augment the cytotoxicity of the cancer chemotherapy agents and improve drug penetration. Irrigation techniques should not be overlooked as an important means of reducing the cancer cell burden within the abdomen and pelvis. Multiple technologies for HIPEC exist and these have advantages and disadvantages. The techniques vary from a totally open technique with a vapor barrier over the open abdominal space to a totally closed technique whereby the HIPEC is administered at the completion of the surgical procedure. The open techniques depend on a table-mounted retractor for suspension of the skin edges allowing a reservoir to occur within the abdomen and pelvis. There are nearly a dozen commercially available hyperthermia pumps, all of which seem to perform adequately for HIPEC although there is a variable degree of convenience and documentation of the HIPEC procedure. As the management of peritoneal metastases has progressed over three decades, early cases are now seen in which a laparoscopic CRS and HIPEC may be appropriate. Also, prophylactic use of laparoscopic HIPEC with perforated appendiceal malignancies and T4 colon cancers may be appropriate.

BACKGROUND Quality of Life (QoL) plays an important role in patients with peritoneal metastasis and is deteriorating continuously until death. Pressurized Intraperitoneal Aerosol Chemotherapy (PIPAC) is an innovative palliative treatment of peritoneal metastasis. We present the first QoL results under PIPAC therapy. METHODS Retrospective analysis of QLQ30 questionnaire results during repeated courses of PIPAC applications in palliative patients with pretreated peritoneal metastasis. RESULTS 91 patients (M:F = 40:51, median age 64 (34-77) years) with 158 PIPAC applications were analyzed. 86% patients had previously received systemic chemotherapy. Peritoneal metastasis was advanced (Peritoneal Carcinomatosis Index I = 16 ± 10). At admission, only moderate impairment of functioning (62-83%) and symptom scores (17-47%) was observed. 48 patients received at least 2 PIPAC every 6 weeks. After PIPAC # 1, the global physical score deteriorated slightly (from 82% to 75%), but improved after PIPAC # 2 (up to 89%). Gastrointestinal symptoms (nausea/vomiting, constipation, diarrhoea, anorexia) remained stable under PIPAC therapy. CONCLUSIONS Quality of life was relatively high in this group of patients with advanced, pretreated peritoneal metastasis, explaining their wish for further therapy. Functioning scores and disease-related symptoms were not altered for at least 3 months in the patients able to receive repeated PIPAC. Except for a transient moderate increase of pain scores, PIPAC did not cause therapy-related QoL deterioration, especially no gastrointestinal symptoms.

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.

Abstract
PURPOSE Cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) are a novel curative treatment option for selected patients with peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC). We aimed to report the mortality rate and the most frequent grade III-IV adverse events and to identify associated prognostic markers. We report oncological outcomes and major prognostic factors influencing overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival. METHODS A total of 401 CRS plus HIPEC procedures were performed on 356 patients. Mortality, grade III-IV adverse events, OS, disease-free survival, and prognostic factors were studied. RESULTS Based on Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE of the National Cancer Institute 2006), mortality rate was 1 % and overall rate of morbidity grade III-IV was 12.5 %. In multivariate analysis, only the number of digestive anastomoses (>1) significantly correlated with adverse events with an odds ratio of 2.8 (p = 0.032). OS was related to histological type of PC, with a median survival reaching 47.6 months for PC of ovarian cancer origin, 45.8 months for that of colorectal origin, 64.2 months for peritoneal mesothelioma, and 8.1 months for PC of gastric cancer origin. Over half the patients with pseudomyxoma are still alive. Major prognostic factors influencing survival were histological type, World Health Organization performance status (WHO PS) (hazard ratio (HR) = 3.56), operating time (HR = 0.45), previous chemotherapy (HR = 2.04), number of peritonectomies (HR = 2.03), and completeness of cytoreduction score (HR = 3.12). Disease-free survival across all groups was 16.8 months. CONCLUSION The low mortality rate and 12.5 % grade III-IV morbidity of CRS and HIPEC are acceptable when weighed against overall oncologic survival. This multimodal treatment appears feasible for selected patients and trained centers.

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
The peritoneal parietal and visceral surfaces of the abdomen and pelvis are an important anatomic site for the dissemination of epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC). The transcoelomic spread of cancer cells gives rise to peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC) which, without special treatments, is a fatal manifestation of EOC. In order to control PC cytoreductive surgery to remove macroscopic disease is combined with perioperative intraperitoneal (IP) and perioperative intravenous chemotherapy to eradicate microscopic residual disease. Chemotherapy agents are selected to be administered by the IP or intravenous route based on their pharmacologic properties. A peritoneal-plasma barrier which retards the clearance of high molecular weight chemotherapy from the peritoneal cavity results in a large exposure of small cancer nodules on abdominal and pelvic surfaces. Tissue penetration is facilitated by moderate hyperthermia (41-42 °C) of the IP chemotherapy solution. Timing of the chemotherapy as a planned part of the surgical procedure to maximize exposure of all peritoneal surfaces is crucial to success.

Abstract
SUMMARY Peritoneal carcinomatosis is observed in up to 15% of colorectal cancer patients and represents 45% of all recurrences: 25% of these have peritoneal cavity-limited disease. Modern systemic chemotherapy has not substantially increased survival in this population to the same extent as those with nonperitoneal carcinomatosis colorectal cancer. Aggressive cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) have now been used here, based on sound theoretical grounds. The resultant median survival achieved is up to 29 months and 5-year survival rates have increased to 20%. Patients who received complete cytoreduction benefit the most, with 5-year survival up to 50%. However, the overall level of trial evidence for CRS and HIPEC is low. The added benefit of modern systemic chemotherapy to CRS and HIPEC also requires evaluation.

Abstract
Background Peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC) is an unmet medical need. Despite recent improvements, systemic chemotherapy has limited efficacy. We report the first application of intraperitoneal chemotherapy as a pressurized aerosol in human patients.
Methods Three end-stage patients with advanced PC from gastric, appendiceal, and ovarian origin were treated as a compassionate therapy. All patients had received previous systemic chemotherapy. A pressurized aerosol of CO2 loaded with doxorubicin 1.5 mg/m2 and cisplatin 7.5 mg/m2 (pressurized intraperitoneal aerosol chemotherapy, PIPAC) was applied into the abdomen for 30 min at a pressure of 12 mmHg and a temperature of 37 °C. Results No side-effects >2 CTCAE were observed, and the procedures were well tolerated. Early hospital discharge was possible (days 2–5). Nuclear presence of doxorubicin was documented throughout the peritoneum, reaching high local concentration (≤4.1 μmol/g) and plasma concentration was low (4.0–6.2 ng/ml). PIPAC created no significant adhesions, could be repeated, and was applied 6×, 4×, and 2×. Two patients showed a complete and one a partial histological remission. Mean survival after the first PIPAC was 288 days. One patient is alive after 567 days. Conclusions PIPAC shows superior pharmacological properties with high local concentration and low systemic exposure. PIPAC can induce regression of PC in chemoresistant tumors, using 10 % of a usual systemic dose.

Is there a role for intraperitoneal administration of heparin in hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) for peritoneal carcinomatosis of colorectal cancer origin? Current data and future orientations. Med Hypotheses 2013; 81:240-2.

Abstract
In experimental studies, the intraperitoneal administration of heparin has been shown to attenuate cancer growth, reduce the formation of postoperative adhesions and possess immunomodulatory properties of oncological benefit for peritoneal carcinomatosis of colorectal cancer origin. Combined with data suggesting that the intraperitoneal administration of heparin can reduce the permeability and increase the ultrafiltration of the peritoneal membrane, we hypothesize that intraperitoneally administrated heparin could be a useful adjunction to the currently used hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) regimens.

Abstract
The pharmacokinetics of pegylated liposomal doxorubicin (PLD) were investigated in 17 women undergoing intraoperative hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) for advanced ovarian cancer and peritoneal carcinomatosis. HIPEC was performed immediately after completing debulking surgery, which included a number of peritonectomy procedures. PLD was injected and allowed to equilibrate in peritoneal cavity filled with 4 liters of physiological solution and stabilized at 42°C; next, the outflow line was opened and perfusion proceeded for 1 h. PLD was stable in peritoneal perfusate and plasma. During HIPEC, PLD peritoneal perfusate/plasma gradients averaged ∼600 or ≥1000 for peak concentration or area under the curve. After HIPEC, PLD plasma levels remained stable or decreased. Biopsy samples of residual normal peritoneum or ovarian carcinomatosis were collected at the end of HIPEC and were shown to contain free doxorubicin. Correlating PLD decrements in peritoneal perfusate with plasma exposure to PLD or peritoneal deposition of free doxorubicin showed that the former occurred during preperfusional equilibration of PLD in peritoneal cavity, whereas the latter occurred during 1 h of perfusion. Plasma exposure to PLD correlated negatively with the number of peritonectomy procedures performed during surgery, whereas peritoneal deposition of free doxorubicin correlated positively. Taken together, these results show that PLD administered by intraoperative HIPEC undergoes limited systemic diffusion and releases active free doxorubicin in peritoneum exposed to ovarian carcinomatosis. PLD pharmacokinetics seem to be influenced by peritonectomy procedures.

Abstract
Cytoreductive surgery (CRS) with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) is a treatment option for peritoneal metastases. The optimal agents for HIPEC have not been established. Melphalan is a drug with broad activity and a favorable profile for intraperitoneal application. The purpose of this study is to review our experience using melphalan for HIPEC. Pharmacologic data was obtained. Thirty four patients who underwent CRS for peritoneal metastases received melphalan for HIPEC between 2003 and 2011. The first 10 patients received 70 mg/m2; subsequent 24 received 60 or 70 mg/m2. The mean PCI was 21 ± 7. Twenty-eight patients (83%) had a CC score of 1 or 2. The mean length of stay was 18 ± 2 days. Nine patients (26%) had a grade 3 and 6 (17%) had grade 4 morbidity. There were no postoperative deaths. The pharmacologic analysis of plasma to peritoneal fluid levels of melphalan showed an AUC ratio of 33 while the tumor nodules to peritoneal ratio was 8. Melphalan is an acceptable agent for use in HIPEC. The morbidity of intraperitoneal melphalan at the dose of 60–70 mg/m2 appears acceptable. Further studies comparing the effectiveness of melphalan and other HIPEC agents are needed.

Abstract
Cytoreductive surgery combined with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) is a treatment option for selected patients with pseudomyxoma peritonei (PMP) and diffuse malignant peritoneal mesothelioma (DMPM). Tumor infiltration of the hemidiaphragm requiring partial resection occurs as a result of large volume and/or invasive disease at this anatomic site. Transmission of disease from abdomen to chest is a great danger in this group of patients. From a prospective database, patients who had diaphragm resection and then hyperthermic thoracoabdominal chemotherapy (HITAC) as a component of a cytoreductive surgical procedure were identified. Data from control patients receiving HIPEC or hyperthermic intrathoracic chemotherapy (HITOC) were analyzed for comparison. The morbidity, mortality, survival, and recurrence rate within the thoracic space were presented. Thirty patients had partial resection of a hemidiaphragm as part of a cytoreductive surgical procedure that utilized HITAC. The pharmacologic benefit of intracavitary chemotherapy administration was documented with an area under the curve ratio of intracavitary concentration times time to plasma concentration times time of 27 ± 10 for mitomycin C and 75 ± 26 for doxorubicin. Comparing percent chemotherapy absorbed for a ninety-minute treatment showed the largest for HIPEC, then for HITAC, and lowest for HITOC. The incidence of grade 3 and 4 adverse events was 43%. There was no mortality. Adjustments in the chemotherapy dose are not necessary with HITAC. The morbidity was high, the survival was acceptable, and intrathoracic recurrence was low.

Abstract
In patients with pseudomyxoma peritonei or peritoneal mesothelioma, direct extension of disease through the hemidiaphragm may result in an isolated progression of tumor within the pleural space. We monitored the intrapleural and plasma levels of mitomycin C and doxorubicin by HPLC assay in order to determine the pharmacokinetic behavior of this intracavitary use of chemotherapy. Our results showed a persistent high concentration of intrapleural drug as compared to plasma concentrations. The increased exposure for mitomycin C was 96, and the increased exposure for doxorubicin was 241. When the clearance of chemotherapy from the thoracic cavity was compared to clearance from the abdomen and pelvis, there was a considerably more rapid clearance from the abdomen as compared to the thorax. The pharmacologic study of intrapleural chemotherapy in these patients provides a strong pharmacologic rationale for regional chemotherapy in this group of patients.
