Sasaki D, Suzuki H, Kusamori K, Itakura S, Todo H, Nishikawa M. Development of rice bran-derived nanoparticles with excellent anti-cancer activity and their application for peritoneal dissemination. J Nanobiotechnology 2024; 22:114. [PMID: 38493106 PMCID: PMC10943818 DOI: 10.1186/s12951-024-02381-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/04/2023] [Accepted: 03/07/2024] [Indexed: 03/18/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Rice bran a by-product of the rice milling process is currently underutilized. Recent studies have shown that plant-derived nanoparticles (pdNPs) can be mass-produced at a low cost and exhibit biological and therapeutic activities. Rice bran contains various anti-cancer compounds, including γ-oryzanol and γ-tocotrienol, and rice bran-derived nanoparticles (rbNPs) can be employed as novel therapeutic agents for cancer treatment. RESULTS Koshihikari rice bran was suspended in water, and the suspension was centrifuged and filtered through a 0.45-µm-pore size syringe filter. The filtrate was ultracentrifuged, and the precipitates were suspended to obtain rbNPs. The rbNPs were negatively charged exosome-like nanoparticles with an average diameter of approximately 130 nm. The rbNPs exhibited cytotoxic activities against cancer cells but not against normal cells. The cytotoxic activity of rbNPs to murine colon adenocarcinoma colon26 cells was significantly greater than DOXIL® or other pdNPs. The rbNPs induced cell cycle arrest and apoptosis, and reduced the expression of proliferative proteins, including β-catenin and cyclin D1. Intraperitoneal injections of rbNPs into mice bearing peritoneal dissemination of colon26 cells significantly suppressed tumor growth with no significant adverse effects. CONCLUSION These results indicated that rbNPs are promising nanoparticles, hold significant potential for anti-cancer applications, and are expected to play a vital role in cancer treatment.

Alleviation of acetaminophen-induced liver failure using silibinin nanoliposomes: An in vivo study. Biochem Biophys Res Commun 2023; 676:103-108. [PMID: 37506470 DOI: 10.1016/j.bbrc.2023.07.045] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/04/2023] [Revised: 07/09/2023] [Accepted: 07/20/2023] [Indexed: 07/30/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Acetaminophen (Act) overdose is a known inducer of liver failure in both children and adults. Cell annihilation ensues following acetaminophen overdose and its toxic metabolites by depleting cellular GSH storage and increasing ROS levels. Silymarin extract and its major compound silibinin (SLB) possess robust antioxidant properties by inducing ROS elimination; however, low bioavailability and rapid metabolism limit their applications. Herein, we aimed at using SLB liposomes to combat acetaminophen-induced acute liver toxicity. METHODS We have developed a SLB-lipid complex to improve SLB loading efficiency within nanoliposome by using the lipid film method. Liposomes were characterized by using DLS and TEM analysis, and the release pattern, and toxicity profile on the normal cells as well as histopathological and serum analysis were investigated to reveal relevant enzyme activities in an animal model. RESULTS Data demonstrated that negatively-charged SLB liposomes of 115 nm had homogeneous spherical morphology, and entrapped a considerable quantity of SLB of almost 40%. Liposomes shows a favorable release pattern and were not toxic against NIH3T3 mouse fibroblast cells. The animal study revealed that treatment of mice with SLB nanoliposomes could significantly preserve liver function as revealed by the reduced levels of ALT and AST hepatic enzymes as well as ALP in the serum. Our data indicated that intraperitoneal administration of SLB Lip could significantly reduce ALT enzyme levels (p < 0.05) compared to N-acetylcysteine, while i.v administration resulted in no significant difference compared to control animals with no treatment. CONCLUSION The results of this study support the significant hepatoprotective effect of SLB nanoliposomes against acetaminophen-induced toxicity depending on the route of administration.

Localized chemotherapy approaches and advanced drug delivery strategies: a step forward in the treatment of peritoneal carcinomatosis from ovarian cancer. Front Oncol 2023; 13:1125868.

Abstract
Peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC) is a common outcome of epithelial ovarian carcinoma and is the leading cause of death for these patients. Tumor location, extent, peculiarities of the microenvironment, and the development of drug resistance are the main challenges that need to be addressed to improve therapeutic outcome. The development of new procedures such as HIPEC (Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy) and PIPAC (Pressurized Intraperitoneal Aerosol Chemotherapy) have enabled locoregional delivery of chemotherapeutics, while the increasingly efficient design and development of advanced drug delivery micro and nanosystems are helping to promote tumor targeting and penetration and to reduce the side effects associated with systemic chemotherapy administration. The possibility of combining drug-loaded carriers with delivery via HIPEC and PIPAC represents a powerful tool to improve treatment efficacy, and this possibility has recently begun to be explored. This review will discuss the latest advances in the treatment of PC derived from ovarian cancer, with a focus on the potential of PIPAC and nanoparticles in terms of their application to develop new therapeutic strategies and future prospects.

Radiolabeled Biodistribution of Expansile Nanoparticles: Intraperitoneal Administration Results in Tumor Specific Accumulation. ACS NANO 2023; 17:2212-2221.

Abstract
Nanoparticle biodistribution in vivo is an essential component to the success of nanoparticle-based drug delivery systems. Previous studies with fluorescently labeled expansile nanoparticles, or "eNPs", demonstrated a high specificity of eNPs to tumors that is achieved through a materials-based targeting strategy. However, fluorescent labeling techniques are primarily qualitative in nature and the gold-standard for quantitative evaluation of biodistribution is through radiolabeling. In this manuscript, we synthesize 14C-labeled eNPs to quantitatively evaluate the biodistribution of these particles in a murine model of intraperitoneal mesothelioma via liquid scintillation counting. The results demonstrate a strong specificity of eNPs for tumors that lasts one to 2 weeks postinjection with an overall delivery efficiency to the tumor tissue of 30% of the injected dose which is congruent with prior reports of preclinical efficacy of the technology. Importantly, the route of administration is essential to the eNP's material-based targeting strategy with intraperitoneal administration leading to tumoral accumulation while, in contrast, intravenous administration leads to rapid clearance via the reticuloendothelial system and low tumoral accumulation. A comparison against nanoparticle delivery systems published over the past decade shows that the 30% tumoral delivery efficiency of the eNP is significantly higher than the 0.7% median delivery efficiency of other systems with sufficient quantitative data to define this metric. These results lay a foundation for targeting intraperitoneal tumors and encourage efforts to explore alternative, nonintravenous routes, of delivery to accelerate the translation of nanoparticle therapies to the clinic.

Abstract
Colorectal and ovarian cancers frequently develop peritoneal metastases with few treatment options. Intraperitoneal chemotherapy has shown promising therapeutic effects, but is limited by rapid drug clearance and systemic toxicity. We therefore encapsulated the cabazitaxel taxane in poly(alkyl cyanoacrylate) (PACA) nanoparticles (NPs), designed to improve intraperitoneal delivery. Toxicity of free and encapsulated cabazitaxel was investigated in rats by monitoring clinical signs, organ weight and blood hematological and biochemical parameters. Pharmacokinetics, biodistribution and treatment response were evaluated in mice. Biodistribution was investigated by measuring both cabazitaxel and the 2-ethylbutanol NP degradation product. Drug encapsulation was shown to increase intraperitoneal drug retention, leading to prolonged intraperitoneal drug residence time and higher drug concentrations in peritoneal tumors. As a result, encapsulation of cabazitaxel improved the treatment response in two in vivo models bearing intraperitoneal tumors. Together, these observations indicate a strong therapeutic potential of NP-based cabazitaxel encapsulation as a novel treatment for peritoneal metastases.

Abstract
Iron is an essential element for various cellular metabolism. Cancer cells also have high requirement of iron in their proliferation, invasion, and metastasis processes. Alendronate (ALN), a kind of FDA-approved bisphosphonates with metal-chelating capability, is initially certified to selectively bind to intracellular Fe3+ theoretically and experimentally in this study. Hence, CaALN iron nanochelator is rationally designed to kill cancer cells by synergism of Fe-depletion and calcium accumulation. In vitro experiments and RNA sequencing analysis indicate that CaALN nanomedicine inhibits the proliferation of cancer cells by depleting Fe, interfering with DNA replication, and triggering intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS). Meanwhile, released Ca2+ and ROS mutually promote and induce damage of cellular macromolecules, which leads to mitochondrial apoptosis of cancer cells. In an intraperitoneal disseminated mouse model with the human ovarian cancer cells SKOV3, CaALN nanoparticles selectively accumulate in tumor tissues and result in significant retardation of tumor growth and ascites formation. The mean survival time of SKOV3-bearing mice in treatment group is prolonged from 33 to 90 d. These results indicate that the alendronate-originated iron chelator can serve as an efficient strategy for the treatment of peritoneal carcinomatosis.

Abstract
Peritoneal mesothelioma is an aggressive disease with a median survival of under three years, due to a lack of effective treatment options. Mesothelioma is traditionally considered a "chemoresistant" tumor; however, low intratumoral drug levels coupled with the inability to administer high systemic doses suggests that therapeutic resistance may be due to poor drug delivery rather than inherent biology. While patient survival may improve with repetitive local intraperitoneal infusions of chemotherapy throughout the perioperative period, these regimens carry associated toxicities and significant peri-operative morbidity. To circumvent these issues, we describe ultra-high drug loaded nanoparticles (NPs) composed of a unique poly(1,2-glycerol carbonate)-graft-succinate-paclitaxel (PGC-PTX + PTX) conjugate. PGC-PTX + PTX NPs are cytotoxic, localize to tumor in vivo, and improve survival in a murine model of human peritoneal mesothelioma after a single intraperitoneal (IP) injection compared to multiple weekly doses of the clinically utilized formulation PTX-C/E. Given their unique pharmacokinetics, a second intraperitoneal dose of PGC-PTX + PTX NPs one month later more than doubles the overall survival compared to the clinical control (122 versus 58 days). These results validate the clinical potential of prolonged local paclitaxel to treat intracavitary malignancies such as mesothelioma using a tailored polymer-mediated nanoparticle formulation.

J Clin Med 2022; 11:jcm11102840.

Abstract
Peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC) is a poor prognostic factor for all malignancies. This extent of metastatic disease progression remains difficult to treat with systemic therapies due to poor peritoneal vascularization resulting in limited drug delivery and penetration into tissues. Cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) are surgical interventions that directly target peritoneal tumors and have improved outcomes for PC resulting from appendiceal and colorectal cancer (CRC). Despite these radical therapies, long-term survival remains infrequent, and recurrence is common. The reasons for these outcomes are multifactorial and signal the need for the continued development of novel therapeutics, techniques, and approaches to improve outcomes for these patients. Here, we review landmark historical studies that serve as the foundation for current recommendations, recent discoveries, clinical trials, active research, and areas of future interest in CRS/HIPEC to treat PC originating from appendiceal and colorectal malignancies.

Abstract
AIM The response with intravenous chemotherapy using cisplatin and paclitaxel in patients with advanced ovarian cancer is often substantial. However, this regression of the malignancy is not durable, and a majority of patients succumb to this disease process. It is possible that alternative types of chemotherapy and alternative routes of chemotherapy administration can improve the results of treatment and perhaps, reduce the morbidity and mortality that patients experience. METHODS Regional chemotherapy treatments previously presented in the ovarian cancer literature were reviewed and critically analyzed. New methods for chemotherapy delivery for both advanced primary and recurrent ovarian cancer were reviewed. This included hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC), early postoperative intraperitoneal chemotherapy (EPIC), and normothermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (NIPEC) long-term. RESULTS An important addition to perioperative chemotherapy delivery is the simultaneous use of heat with intraperitoneal drug delivery after a complete cytoreductive surgery. Drugs to be considered for HIPEC are cisplatin, gemcitabine, and melphalan. For EPIC, chemotherapy agents to consider include paclitaxel, pemetrexed, gemcitabine, and liposomal doxorubicin. For NIPEC, paclitaxel is the drug of choice usually combined with a systemic agent as bidirectional chemotherapy. Also, pemetrexed, gemcitabine, and liposomal doxorubicin are drugs to be considered for NIPEC in phase I/II trials. CONCLUSIONS Innovative regimens of regional chemotherapy may improve the outcome of patients with advanced ovarian cancer. These chemotherapy treatments must be integrated with complete cytoreductive surgery and the availability of peritoneal access for repeated delivery of chemotherapy solutions.

Abstract
Intraperitoneal (IP) chemotherapy has shown promising efficacy in ovarian cancer with peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC), but in vivo rapid clearance and severe toxicity of free anticancer drugs hinder the effective treatment. Herein, we propose the safe and effective IP chemotherapy with cathepsin B-specific doxorubicin prodrug nanoparticles (PNPs) in ovarian cancer with PC. The PNPs are prepared by self-assembling cathepsin B-specific cleavable peptide (FRRG) and doxorubicin (DOX) conjugates, which are further formulated with pluronic F68. The PNPs exhibit stable spherical structure and cytotoxic DOX is specifically released from PNPs via sequential enzymatic degradation by cathepsin B and intracellular proteases. The PNPs induce cytotoxicity in cathepsin B-overexpressing ovarian (SKOV-3 and HeyA8) and colon (MC38 and CT26) cancer cells, but not in cathepsin B-deficient normal cells in cultured condition. With enhanced cancer-specificity and in vivo residence time, IP injected PNPs efficiently accumulate within PC through two targeting mechanisms of direct penetration (circulation independent) and systemic blood vessel-associated accumulation (circulation dependent). As a result, IP chemotherapy with PNPs efficiently inhibit tumor progression with minimal side effects in peritoneal human ovarian tumor-bearing xenograft (POX) and patient derived xenograft (PDX) models. These results demonstrate that PNPs effectively inhibit progression of ovarian cancer with peritoneal carcinomatosis with minimal local and systemic toxicities by high cancer-specificity and favorable in vivo PK/PD profiles enhancing PC accumulation.

Abstract
The dissemination of tumor metastasis in the peritoneal cavity, also called peritoneal metastasis (PM) or carcinomatosis, represents a late stage of gastrointestinal and gynecological cancer with very poor prognosis, even when cytoreductive surgery is effective, due to residual microscopic disease. Photodynamic therapy (PDT) in the management of peritoneal metastasis has been clinically limited by the low tumor selectivity of photosensitizers (PS) and important adverse effects. Here, we propose extracellular nanovesicles (EVs) derived from mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs) as the fourth generation of immune active PS vectors that are able to target peritoneal metastasis with superior selectivity, potentiate PDT cytotoxicity at the tumor site without affecting healthy tissues, modulate the tumor microenvironment of immunocompetent colorectal and ovarian carcinomatosis models, and promote an antitumor immune response. A pioneering strategy was developed for high yield, large-scale production of MSC-EVs encapsulating the drug meta(tetrahydroxyphenyl)chlorin (mTHPC) (EVs-mTHPC) that is compatible with requirements of clinical translation and also preserves the topology and integrity of naturally produced EVs. Intraperitoneal injection of EVs-mTHPC showed an impressive enhancement of tumoral selectivity in comparison to the free drug and to the liposomal formulation Foslip (mean ratio of PS in tumors/organs of 40 for EVs-mTHPC versus 1.5 for the free PS and 5.5 for Foslip). PDT mediated by EVs-mTHPC permitted an important tumoral necrosis (55% of necrotic tumoral nodules versus 18% for Foslip (p < 0.0001)) and promoted antitumor immune cell infiltration, mainly proinflammatory M1-like CD80+ and CD8+ T cell effector. Intratumor proliferation was significantly decreased after PDT with EVs-mTHPC. Overall EVs vectorization of mTHPC afforded important tumoral selectivity while overcoming the PDT toxicity of the free drug and prolonged mice survival in the colorectal carcinomatosis model. MSC-EVs produced by our scalable manufacturing method appears like the clinically relevant fourth-generation PDT vehicle to overcome current limitations of PDT in the treatment of peritoneal metastasis and promote a hot tumor immune environment in PM.

Enabling Microparticle Imprinting to Achieve Penetration and Local Endurance in the Peritoneum via High-Intensity Ultrasound (HIUS) for the Treatment of Peritoneal Metastasis. Int J Surg Oncol 2020; 2020:9679385. [PMID: 32953172 PMCID: PMC7480429 DOI: 10.1155/2020/9679385] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/27/2020] [Revised: 07/06/2020] [Accepted: 08/11/2020] [Indexed: 01/08/2023] Open
Abstract
Introduction Micro- and nanoparticles, with their submicron size, the versatility of physical and chemical properties, and easily modifiable surface, are uniquely positioned to bypass the body's clearing systems. Nonetheless, two main problems with micro- and nanoparticles arise which limit the intraperitoneal application. The study was performed to evaluate whether HIUS enables the imprinting of microparticles and, therefore, enhances penetration and local endurance in the peritoneum. Methods High-intensity ultrasound (HIUS) at 20 kilohertz with an output power of 70 W was applied on peritoneal tissue samples from fresh postmortem swine for different time intervals. Before the HIUS application, the surface of the samples was covered with strontium aluminate microparticles before analysis via electron microscopy. In-tissue strontium aluminate penetration and particle distribution size were measured using fluorescence microscopy on frozen thin sections. Results With increasing HIUS durations (1 versus 5 minutes), increasing strontium aluminate particles were detected in the peritoneum. HIUS leads to a particle selection process with enhancing predominantly the penetration of smaller particles whereas larger particles had a harder time penetrating the peritoneum. Smaller particles were detected up to 277 µm ± 86 µm into the peritoneum. Conclusion Our data indicate that HIUS might be used as a method to prepare the peritoneal tissue for micro- and nanoparticles. Higher tissue penetration rates without the increase and longer local endurance of the applied substance could be reached. More studies need to be performed to analyze the effect of HIUS in enhancing intraperitoneal drug applications.

Abstract
Although intraperitoneal chemotherapy (IPC) has been suggested as a promising method for the management of peritoneal dissemination (PD) of ovarian or colorectal cancers, the actual clinical use of this method has been restricted due to such problems as poor drug penetration into the tumor and high side effects. It is, therefore, necessary to develop new strategies to improve the efficacy of this approach. In the present work, a new strategy is proposed based on intraperitoneal (IP) injection of thermosensitive liposomal doxorubicin (TSL-Dox) with triggered release by mild hyperthermia induced by high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU). A computational model is developed to evaluate the proposed drug delivery system. Results show an order of magnitude increase in drug penetration depth into the tumor compared to the conventional IP delivery. Furthermore, the effects of thermal conditions applied to the tumor, TSL size, tumor vessel permeability, and tumor size are investigated. Results indicate an improved efficiency of the drug delivery by expanding the heated region, yet, it increases the risk of unintentional TSL drug load release in the peritoneal cavity. Results also indicate that smaller TSLs have better treatment outcome. However, there is a significant reduction in treatment efficacy for TSLs with sizes smaller than the vessel wall pore size. Thus, tuning the size of TSL should be based on the tumor microvascular permeability. The simulation results suggest that the TSL-Dox delivery system in smaller tumors is far advantageous than larger ones. Results of our model can be used as guidelines for future preclinical studies.

Abstract
Introduction: Peritoneal metastases of cancer remain a major cause of an adverse outcome and death following surgical treatment of malignancies that occur within the abdomen and pelvis. The administration of a chemotherapy solution directly into the peritoneal space has been used to improve the survival in this group of patients.Areas covered: Relevant manuscripts from my own publications and identified through Medline and PubMed were reviewed if they concerned neoadjuvant intraperitoneal and systemic chemotherapy (NIPS), hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC), early postoperative intraperitoneal chemotherapy (EPIC), normothermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (NIPEC). The pharmacologic information that will impact on the efficacy of intraperitoneal chemotherapy administration was also reviewed.Expert opinion: The four major technologies for obtaining peritoneal access of cancer chemotherapy to peritoneal metastases were studied. The differences in distribution of chemotherapy solution, in selection of chemotherapy agents to be delivered, and variations in delivery systems were presented and critically analyzed. The most obvious benefits of combined cytoreductive surgery and intraperitoneal chemotherapy have been demonstrated with appendiceal mucinous neoplasms and malignant peritoneal mesothelioma. Continued efforts with new intraperitoneal chemotherapy agents and methods of drug delivery continue for ovarian cancer, colorectal cancer, and gastric cancer.

Abstract
Peritoneal carcinomatosis from unknown primary site must be a diagnosis of exclusion. Peritoneal metastases in the absence of a primary site by definitive radiologic and endoscopic tests does occur. An occult appendiceal adenocarcinoma may be the cause of the peritoneal carcinomatosis. Visualization of a normal appendix by exploratory laparotomy or laparoscopy is a new requirement for the diagnosis.
Background Peritoneal carcinomatosis is sometimes diagnosed by cytology or by biopsy, but routine radiologic and endoscopic workup may not reveal a primary site. This clinical condition is called adenocarcinoma of unknown primary site. Methods The clinical findings of two patients with adenocarcinoma of unknown primary site were presented and the implications for management of similar patients were suggested. Results The patient had the diagnosis of adenocarcinoma of unknown primary site made when cancer was discovered at the time of umbilical hernia repair or laparoscopy. Radiologic and endoscopic tests were not definitive in providing the primary site for the malignancy. Exploratory laparotomy was performed which revealed an appendiceal mucinous adenocarcinoma as the cause of the peritoneal carcinomatosis. Cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) were used at the time of the exploratory laparotomy to treat the appendiceal adenocarcinoma with peritoneal metastases. Conclusions Peritoneal carcinomatosis of unknown primary site may be caused by an occult appendiceal adenocarcinoma. This error in diagnosis may lead to suboptimal treatment. Surgical exploration to visualize a normal appendix should occur prior to making a definitive diagnosis of peritoneal carcinomatosis of unknown primary site.

Exploring the Use of Pegylated Liposomal Doxorubicin (Caelyx ®) as Pressurized Intraperitoneal Aerosol Chemotherapy. Front Pharmacol 2019; 10:669. [PMID: 31293417 PMCID: PMC6603215 DOI: 10.3389/fphar.2019.00669] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/26/2019] [Accepted: 05/23/2019] [Indexed: 12/20/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: Peritoneal carcinomatosis is a common metastatic pattern in ovarian, gastric, colorectal, and appendiceal cancer; systemic chemotherapy is the current standard of care for peritoneal metastatic disease; however, in a subset of patients its beneficial effect remains questionable. More effective perioperative chemotherapy is needed. Materials and methods: Pressurized intraperitoneal aerosol chemotherapy (PIPAC) is a new treatment that applies chemotherapeutic drugs into the peritoneal cavity as an aerosol under pressure. It’s a safe and feasible approach that improves local bioavailability of chemotherapeutic drugs as compared with conventional intraperitoneal chemotherapy. Till now the drugs used in PIPAC for the treatment of the peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC) are cisplatin, doxorubicin, and oxaliplatin; as of yet, there are no in vivo data comparing different drug formulations and dosage schedules of PIPAC. Pegylated liposomal doxorubicin 1.5 mg/sm was aerosolized in PIPAC procedures. Results: Pharmacokinetics analysis of 10 procedures performed with conventional doxorubicin solution at the dose of 1.5 mg/m2 were compared to 15 procedures with the same dose of pegylated liposomal doxorubicin (PLD). Significant differences between experimental groups were detected by one-way ANOVA followed by Bonferroni correction; a p value < 0.05 was considered statistically significant. A statistically different doxorubicin tissue concentration was observed for the doxorubicin solution compared to pegylated liposomal doxorubicin in the right parietal peritoneum and right diaphragm. In the Caelyx® series a mean tissue concentration of 1.27 ± 1.33 mg/g was reported, while in the second one we registered a mean concentration of 3.1 ± 3.7 mg/g. Conclusions: The delivery of nano-particles in PIPAC was feasible, but pegylated liposomal concentrations are lower than standard doxorubicin formulation. Probably mechanical and physical properties of pressurized aerosol chemotherapy might alter their stability and cause structural disintegration.
