Abstract
Ovarian cancer, notable for its severe prognosis among gynecologic cancers, has seen substantial progress in treatment approaches recently. Enhanced protocols in chemotherapy and the introduction of poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitors for maintenance therapy have markedly improved outcomes for patients with specific genetic profiles, such as those positive for BRCA mutations or exhibiting homologous recombination deficiency (HRD). Additionally, the method of intraperitoneal chemotherapy administration has emerged as a valuable alternative to traditional transvenous routes, showing promise for wider clinical adoption. The field of surgery has also evolved, with increasing exploration into the benefits and feasibility of laparoscopic methods over more invasive traditional surgeries, aiming for complete tumor removal but with reduced patient impact. The hereditary nature of ovarian cancer underscores the importance of genetic testing, which has become integral in tailoring treatment strategies, particularly in determining suitability for PARP inhibitors. The formation of the East Asian Gynecologic Oncology Trial Group (EAGOT) aims to optimize treatment across Japan, Korea, China, and Taiwan. The ovarian cancer committee of EAGOT shared the current policies, focusing on 5 topics: 1) strategies for maintenance therapy after initial surgery and chemotherapy, 2) drug regimens for platinum-sensitive and platinum-resistant recurrence, 3) intraperitoneal chemotherapy, 4) laparoscopic surgery as an alternative to laparotomy, and 5) current status of genetic testing (BRCA, HRD, and panel tests) for ovarian cancer and its prospects. EAGOT's multi-national trials aim to harmonize these evolving treatment strategies, ensuring that the latest and most effective protocols are accessible across the region, thereby significantly impacting patient outcomes in East Asia.

Oncological outcomes of intraperitoneal chemotherapy in advanced ovarian cancer: BRCA mutation role. EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF SURGICAL ONCOLOGY 2024; 50:108263. [PMID: 38492526 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejso.2024.108263] [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: 10/18/2023] [Revised: 03/04/2024] [Accepted: 03/08/2024] [Indexed: 03/18/2024]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION The knowledge of BRCA status offers a chance to evaluate the role of the intraperitoneal route in patients selected by biomolecular profiles after primary cytoreduction surgery in advanced ovarian cancer. MATERIALS AND METHODS We performed a retrospective, multicenter study to assess oncological outcomes depending on adjuvant treatment (intraperitoneal [IP] vs intravenous [IV]) and BRCA status (BRCA1/2 mutated vs. BRCA wild type [WT]). The primary endpoint was to determine progression-free survival. The secondary objectives were overall survival and toxicity. RESULTS A total of 288 women from eight centers were included: 177 in the IP arm and 111 in the IV arm, grouped into four arms according to BRCA1/2 status. Significantly better PFS was observed in BRCA1/2-mutated patients with IP chemotherapy (HR: 0.35; 95% CI, 0.16-0.75, p = 0.007), which was not present in BRCA1/2-mutated patients with IV chemotherapy (HR: 0.65; 95% CI, 0.37-1.12, p = 0.14). Significantly better OS was also observed in IP chemotherapy (HR: 0.17; 95% CI, 0.06-043, p < 0.0001), but was not present in IV chemotherapy in relation with BRCA mutation (HR: 0.52; 95% CI, 0.22-1.27, p = 0.15). For BRCA WT patients, worse survival was observed regardless of the adjuvant route used. The IP route was more toxic compared to the IV route, but toxicity was equivalent at the long-term follow-up. CONCLUSION This retrospective study suggests that BRCA status can help to offer an individualized, systematic treatment after optimal primary surgery for advanced ovarian cancer, but is limited by the small sample size. Prospective trials are essential to confirm these results.

Abstract
OPINION STATEMENT In our clinical practice, we have shifted away from the use of adjuvant normothermic intraperitoneal (IP) chemotherapy, particularly following the publication of GOG 252. Our decision is rooted in the accumulating evidence indicating a lack of demonstrable superiority, alongside the recognized toxicities and logistical challenges associated with its administration. This strategic departure is also influenced by the rising utilization of maintenance therapies such as bevacizumab and PARP inhibitors, which present viable alternatives for improving patient outcomes. Our utilization of hyperthermic IP chemotherapy (HIPEC) is currently reserved for a specific cohort of patients, mirroring the patient population studied in the OVHIPEC-1 trial. Specifically, our HIPEC protocol applies to patients presenting with newly diagnosed stage IIIC high-grade epithelial ovarian cancer who are deemed ineligible for primary debulking surgery. Patients must exhibit at least stable disease with neoadjuvant platinum-based chemotherapy, maintain a favorable performance status (ECOG score 0-1), possess good nutritional reserves (with no evidence of protein-calorie malnutrition and an albumin level exceeding 3.5), and not have chronic kidney disease. When HIPEC is planned, it is administered at the time of interval debulking surgery, contingent upon the attainment of optimal surgical outcomes (< 1 cm of residual disease). Our HIPEC protocol adheres to the original OVHIPEC-1 trial guidelines, employing cisplatin at a dosage of 100 mg/m2. We administer at least two antiemetics, antihistamines, and sodium thiosulfate to mitigate known side effects. Postoperatively, patients are admitted to the general surgical floor, reserving the intensive care unit for those in critical condition. We follow Enhanced Recovery After Surgery principles, incorporating early ambulation and feeding into our postoperative care strategy. We have encountered encouraging results with this approach, with most patients having largely uncomplicated postoperative courses and resuming adjuvant chemotherapy within 3 to 4 weeks of surgery.

Determining the maximum tolerated dose of paclitaxel combined with fixed dose of cisplatin for hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy in ovarian cancer: A multicenter phase I trial. Gynecol Oncol 2024; 181:125-132. [PMID: 38159362 DOI: 10.1016/j.ygyno.2023.12.019] [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: 09/22/2023] [Revised: 12/04/2023] [Accepted: 12/20/2023] [Indexed: 01/03/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of paclitaxel combined with a fixed dose of cisplatin (75 mg/m2) delivered via hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) to patients with ovarian cancer. METHODS This multicenter Phase I trial employed a Bayesian Optimal Interval (BOIN) design. The MTD was determined to have a target dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) rate of 25%. The starting dose was 175 mg/m2. The Data and Safety Monitoring Board made decisions regarding dose escalation or de-escalation in increments of 25 mg/m2 for subsequent patient cohorts, up to a maximum sample size of 30 or 12 patients treated at a given dose. RESULTS Twenty-one patients participated in this study. Among the three evaluable patients who received 150 mg/m2 paclitaxel, no DLTs were observed. Among the 12 evaluable patients who received 175 mg/m2 paclitaxel, two reported DLTs: one had grade 4 neutropenia and one had grade 4 anemia, neutropenia, and leukopenia. Four of the six evaluable patients who received 200 mg/m2 paclitaxel reported DLTs: one patient had grade 4 diarrhea, one had grade 3 kidney injury, and two had grade 4 anemia. The isotonic estimate of the DLT rate in the 175 mg/m2 dose group was 0.17 (95% confidence interval, 0.02-0.42), and this dose was selected as the MTD. CONCLUSION Paclitaxel, when combined with a fixed dose of cisplatin (75 mg/m2), can be safely administered intraperitoneally at a dose of 175 mg/m2 in patients with ovarian cancer who received HIPEC (43 °C, 90 min) following cytoreductive surgery.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The peritoneum is the second most affected organ for the dissemination of colorectal cancer (CRC). Patients with colorectal peritoneal metastases (CPM) face a poor prognosis, despite the majority of patients being treated with palliative systemic therapy. The efficacy of palliative systemic therapy is limited due to the plasma-peritoneum barrier. The poor prognosis of unresectable CPM patients has resulted in the development of new treatment strategies where systemic therapy is combined with local, intraperitoneal chemotherapy. In the recently published phase I study, the maximum tolerated dose and thus the recommended phase II dose of intraperitoneal irinotecan was investigated and determined to be 75 mg. In the present study, the overall survival after treatment with 75 mg irinotecan with concomitant mFOLFOX4 and bevacizumab will be investigated. MATERIALS AND METHODS In this single-arm phase II study in two Dutch tertiary referral centres, 85 patients are enrolled. Eligibility criteria are an adequate performance status and organ function, histologically confirmed microsatellite stable and unresectable CPM, no previous palliative therapy for CRC, no systemic therapy<6 months for CRC prior to enrolment and no previous cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (CRS and HIPEC). Patients will undergo a diagnostic laparoscopy as standard work-up for CPM and if the peritoneal disease is considered unresectable (eg, Peritoneal Cancer Index (PCI)>20, too extensive small bowel involvement), a peritoneal access port and a port-a-cath are placed for administration of intraperitoneal and intravenous chemotherapy, respectively. Patients may undergo up to 12 cycles of study treatment. Each cycle consists of intravenous mFOLFOX4 with bevacizumab and concomitant intraperitoneal irinotecan (75 mg), which is repeated every 2 weeks, with a maximum of 12 cycles. Modified FOLFOX-4 regimen consists of 85 mg/m2 oxaliplatin plus 200 mg/m2 LV and 5-FU 400 mg/m2 bolus on day 1 followed by 1600 mg/m2 5-FU as a 46 hours infusion. Study treatment ends after the 12th cycle, or earlier in case of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. The primary outcome is overall survival and key secondary outcomes are progression-free survival, safety (measured by the amount of grade ≥3 adverse events (Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events V.5.0)), patient-reported outcomes and pharmacokinetics of irinotecan. It is hypothesised that the trial treatment will lead to a 4 month increase in overall survival; from a median of 12.2 to 16.2 months. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION This study is approved by the Dutch Authority (CCMO, the Hague, the Netherlands), by a central medical ethics committee (MEC-U, Nieuwegein, the Netherlands) and by the institutional research boards of both research centres. Results will be submitted for publication in peer-reviewed medical journals and presented to patients and healthcare professionals. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER NCT06003998.

Abstract
Since the latest practice guidelines for ovarian cancer were developed by the Korean Society of Gynecologic Oncology (KSGO) in 2021, many studies have examined the efficacy and safety of various treatments for epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC). Therefore, the need to develop recommendations for EOC treatments has been raised. This study searched the literature using 4 key items and the Population, Intervention, Comparison, and Outcome: the efficacy and safety of poly-ADP ribose polymerase inhibitors in newly diagnosed advanced EOC; the efficacy and safety of intraperitoneal plus intravenous chemotherapy in optimally debulked advanced EOC; the efficacy and safety of secondary cytoreductive surgery in platinum-sensitive recurrent ovarian cancer; and the efficacy and safety of the addition of bevacizumab to platinum-based chemotherapy in first platinum-sensitive recurrent EOC patients who received prior bevacizumab. The evidence for these recommendations, according to each key question, was evaluated using a systematic review and meta-analysis. The committee of ovarian cancer of the KSGO developed updated guidelines for treatments of EOC.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To identify the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of docetaxel combined with a fixed dose of cisplatin (75 mg/m²) delivered as hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) in patients with ovarian cancer. METHODS In this phase I trial, a time-to-event Bayesian optimal interval design was used. Docetaxel was given at a starting dose of 60 mg/m² and was increased in 5 mg/m² increments until the MTD was determined or the maximum dose level of 75 mg/m² was reached. The dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) rate was set at 25%, with a total sample size of 30 patients. HIPEC was delivered immediately following debulking surgery at a target temperature of 43°C for 90 minutes. RESULTS From August 2022 to November 2022, 30 patients were enrolled. Among the patients who received a dose of docetaxel ≤65 mg/m², no DLT was reported. DLTs were observed in one patient who received 70 mg/m² docetaxel (grade 3 anaemia) and in three patients who received 75 mg/m² docetaxel (one case of grade 3 anaemia, one case of grade 3 hepatic impairment and one case of grade 4 thrombocytopenia). Patients treated with docetaxel 75 mg/m² in combination with cisplatin 75 mg/m² had an estimated DLT rate of 25%, which was the closest to the target DLT rate and was therefore chosen as the MTD. CONCLUSION Docetaxel, in combination with a fixed dose of cisplatin (75 mg/m²), can be used safely at intraperitoneal doses of 75 mg/m² in ovarian cancer patients who received HIPEC (43°C, 90 minutes) following debulking surgery.

Abstract
Peritoneal metastases (PM) occur when cancer cells spread inside the abdominal cavity and entail an advanced stage of colorectal cancer (CRC). Prognosis, which is poor, correlates highly with tumour burden, as measured by the peritoneal cancer index (PCI). Cytoreductive surgery (CRS) in specialized centres should be offered especially to patients with a low to moderate PCI when complete resection is expected. The presence of resectable metastatic disease in other organs is not a contraindication in well-selected patients. Although several retrospective and small prospective studies have suggested a survival benefit of adding hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) to CRS, the recently published phase III studies PRODIGE-7 in CRC patients with PM, and COLOPEC and PROPHYLOCHIP in resected CRC with high-risk of PM, failed to show any survival advantage of this strategy using oxaliplatin in a 30-min perfusion. Final results from ongoing randomized phase III trials testing CRS plus HIPEC based on mitomycin C (MMC) are awaited with interest. In this article, a group of experts selected by the Spanish Group for the Treatment of Digestive Tumours (TTD) and the Spanish Group of Peritoneal Oncologic Surgery (GECOP), which is part of the Spanish Society of Surgical Oncology (SEOQ), reviewed the role of HIPEC plus CRS in CRC patients with PM. As a result, a series of recommendations to optimize the management of these patients is proposed.

Sugarbaker PH. Randomized trial of intravenous versus bidirectional chemotherapy after cytoreductive surgery for malignant peritoneal mesothelioma. Int J Surg Protoc 2023; 27:108-117. [PMID: 38046900 PMCID: PMC10688535 DOI: 10.1097/sp9.0000000000000010] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/02/2023] [Accepted: 09/03/2023] [Indexed: 12/05/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Malignant peritoneal mesothelioma (MPM) is a rare disease that progresses within the peritoneal cavity and only disseminates to systemic sites in the terminal months of the disease. For this malignancy, there are several regimens of chemotherapy that have been accepted as standard, principally intraperitoneal chemotherapy (IPC) and intravenous chemotherapy (IVC); however, there is no standardized method of treatment. Selected patients with MPM who are amenable to cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and are fit for surgery typically undergo resection with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC). Though individual toxicity and efficacy studies of IPC plus IVC (bidirectional) and IVC chemotherapy for MPM have been conducted, a prospective randomized clinical trial has not been performed for this disease. Materials and methods The study objective is to compare the efficacy and toxicity of normothermic bidirectional (IPC/IVC) chemotherapy versus IVC after CRS and HIPEC for epithelial MPM. The patient population are those individuals undergoing CRS for MPM. Exclusion criteria include previous therapy form mesothelioma. The study design is a randomized, nonblinded, phase II clinical trial comparing multicycle IVC with cisplatin (CDDP) and pemetrexed (PMTX) versus multicycle bidirectional chemotherapy with IVC CDDP and IPC PMTX after optimal CRS and HIPEC with CDDP and doxorubicin. The primary endpoint is 2-year disease-free survival. The secondary endpoint is 30-day post-treatment morbidity. The primary objective is to compare the 2-year rates of disease-free survival in the two treatment arms. The secondary objective is to compare the toxicity of each treatment. Dissemination The prospective randomized trial provides not only a standardized approach to treatment but also a path forward to optimize the survival of patients with MPM. In addition, any increase or decrease in the adverse events associated with PMTX administered as IPC will be demonstrated. Because MPM is a rare disease a multi-institutional implementation of the protocol is required.

Abstract
Ovarian carcinoma is characterized by heterogeneity at the molecular, cellular and anatomical levels, both spatially and temporally. This heterogeneity affects response to surgery and/or systemic therapy, and also facilitates inherent and acquired drug resistance. As a consequence, this tumour type is often aggressive and frequently lethal. Ovarian carcinoma is not a single disease entity and comprises various subtypes, each with distinct complex molecular landscapes that change during progression and therapy. The interactions of cancer and stromal cells within the tumour microenvironment further affects disease evolution and response to therapy. In past decades, researchers have characterized the cellular, molecular, microenvironmental and immunological heterogeneity of ovarian carcinoma. Traditional treatment approaches have considered ovarian carcinoma as a single entity. This landscape is slowly changing with the increasing appreciation of heterogeneity and the recognition that delivering ineffective therapies can delay the development of effective personalized approaches as well as potentially change the molecular and cellular characteristics of the tumour, which might lead to additional resistance to subsequent therapy. In this Review we discuss the heterogeneity of ovarian carcinoma, outline the current treatment landscape for this malignancy and highlight potentially effective therapeutic strategies in development.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Ovarian cancer is the gynaecological malignancy with the highest mortality and diagnosis often occurs in its advanced stages. Standard treatment in these cases is based on complete cytoreductive surgery with adjuvant intravenous chemotherapy. Other types of treatment are being evaluated to improve the prognosis of these patients, including intraperitoneal chemotherapy and antiangiogenic therapy. These may improve survival or time to relapse in addition to intravenous chemotherapy. OBJECTIVE The aim of this meta-analysis is to determine whether treatment with intravenous chemotherapy remains the gold standard, or whether the addition of intraperitoneal chemotherapy has a benefit in overall survival (OS) and disease-free interval (DFS). MATERIALS AND METHODS A literature search was carried out in Pubmed and Cochrane, selecting clinical studies and systematic reviews published in the last 10 years. Statistical analysis was performed using the hazard ratio measure in the RevMan tool. RESULTS Intraperitoneal chemotherapy shows a benefit in OS and DFS compared with standard intravenous chemotherapy. The significant differences in OS (HR: 0.81 CI 95% 0.74-0.88) and in DFS (HR: 0.81 CI 95% 0.75-0.87) are statistically significant (p < 0.00001). There were no clinical differences in toxicity and side-effects. CONCLUSION Intraperitoneal chemotherapy is an option that improves OS and DFS without significant toxicity regarding the use of intravenous chemotherapy alone. However, prospective studies are needed to determine the optimal dose and treatment regimen that will maintain the benefits while minimising side effects and toxicity and the profile of patients who will benefit most from this treatment.

Abstract
Peritoneal metastatic cancer is a cancer caused by the direct growth of cancer cells from the primary site through the bloodstream, lymph, or peritoneum, which is a difficult part of current clinical treatment. In the abdominal cavity of patients with metastatic peritoneal cancer, there are usually nodules of various sizes and malignant ascites. Among them, nodules of different sizes can obstruct intestinal movement and form intestinal obstruction, while malignant ascites can cause abdominal distension and discomfort, and even cause patients to have difficulty in breathing. The pathology and physiology of peritoneal metastatic cancer are complex and not fully understood. The main hypothesis is "seed" and "soil"; i.e., cells from the primary tumor are shed and implanted in the peritoneal cavity (peritoneal metastasis). In the last two decades, the main treatment modalities used clinically are cytoreductive surgery (CRS), systemic chemotherapy, intraperitoneal chemotherapy, and combined treatment, all of which help to improve patient survival and quality of life (QOL). However, the small-molecule chemotherapeutic drugs used clinically still have problems such as rapid drug metabolism and systemic toxicity. With the rapid development of nanotechnology in recent years, therapeutic nanoagents for the treatment of peritoneal metastatic cancer have been gradually developed, which has improved the therapeutic effect and reduced the systemic toxicity of small-molecule chemotherapeutic drugs to a certain extent. In addition, nanomaterials have been developed not only as therapeutic agents but also as imaging agents to guide peritoneal tumor CRS. In this review, we describe the etiology and pathological features of peritoneal metastatic cancer, discuss in detail the clinical treatments that have been used for peritoneal metastatic cancer, and analyze the advantages and disadvantages of the different clinical treatments and the QOL of the treated patients, followed by a discussion focusing on the progress, obstacles, and challenges in the use of therapeutic nanoagents in peritoneal metastatic cancer. Finally, therapeutic nanoagents and therapeutic tools that may be used in the future for the treatment of peritoneal metastatic cancer are prospected.

Phase I study of intraperitoneal irinotecan combined with palliative systemic chemotherapy in patients with colorectal peritoneal metastases. Br J Surg 2023; 110:1502-1510.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with colorectal peritoneal metastases who are not eligible for cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) owing to extensive peritoneal disease have a poor prognosis. It was hypothesized that these patients may benefit from the addition of intraperitoneal irinotecan to standard palliative systemic chemotherapy. METHODS This was a classical 3 + 3 phase I dose-escalation trial in patients with colorectal peritoneal metastases who were not eligible for CRS-HIPEC. Intraperitoneal irinotecan was administered every 2 weeks, concomitantly with systemic FOLFOX (5-fluorouracil, folinic acid, oxaliplatin)-bevacizumab. The primary objective was to determine the maximum tolerated dose and dose-limiting toxicities. Secondary objectives were to elucidate the systemic and intraperitoneal pharmacokinetics, safety profile, and efficacy. RESULTS Eighteen patients were treated. No dose-limiting toxicities were observed with 50 mg (4 patients) and 75 mg (9 patients) intraperitoneal irinotecan. Two dose-limiting toxicities occurred with 100 mg irinotecan among five patients. The maximum tolerated dose of intraperitoneal irinotecan was established to be 75 mg, and it was well tolerated. Intraperitoneal exposure to SN-38 (active metabolite of irinotecan) was high compared with systemic exposure (median intraperitoneal area under the curve (AUC) to systemic AUC ratio 4.6). Thirteen patients had a partial radiological response and five had stable disease. Four patients showed a complete response during post-treatment diagnostic laparoscopy. Five patients underwent salvage resection or CRS-HIPEC. Median overall survival was 23.9 months. CONCLUSION Administration of 75 mg intraperitoneal irinotecan concomitantly with systemic FOLFOX-bevacizumab was safe and well tolerated. Intraperitoneal SN-38 exposure was high and prolonged. As oncological outcomes were promising, intraperitoneal administration of irinotecan may be a good alternative to other, more invasive and costly treatment options. A phase II study is currently accruing.

Enterolactone and trabectedin suppress epithelial ovarian cancer synergistically via upregulating THBS1. Phytother Res 2023; 37:4722-4739.

Abstract
Epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) is the most common and fatal subtype of ovarian malignancies, with no effective therapeutics available. Our previous studies have demonstrated extraordinary suppressive efficacy of enterolactone (ENL) on EOC. A chemotherapeutic agent, trabectedin (Trabe), is shown to be effective on ovarian cancer, especially when combined with other therapeutics, such as pegylated liposomal doxorubicin or oxaliplatin. Thrombospondin 1 (THBS1), a kind of matrix glycoprotein, plays important roles against cancer development through inhibiting angiogenesis but whether it is involved in the suppression of EOC by ENL or Trabe remains unknown. To test combined suppressive effects of ENL and Trabe on EOC and possible involvement of THBS1 in the anticancer activities of ENL and Trabe. The EOC cell line ES-2 was transfected with overexpressed THBS1 by lentivirus vector. We employed tube formation assay to evaluate the anti-angiogenesis activity of ENL and of its combined use with Trabe after THBS1 overexpression and established drug intervention and xenograft nude mouse cancer models to assess the in vivo effects of the hypothesized synergistic suppression between the agents and the involvement of THBS1. Mouse fecal samples were collected for 16S rDNA sequencing and microbiota analysis. We detected strong inhibitory activities of ENL and Trabe against the proliferation and migration of cancer cells and observed synergistic effects between ENL and Trabe in suppressing EOC. ENL and Trabe, given either separately or in combination, could suppress the tube formation capability of human microvascular endothelial cells, and this inhibitory effect became even stronger with THBS1 overexpression. In the ENL plus Trabe combination group, the expression of tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases 3 and cluster of differentiation 36 was both upregulated, whereas matrix metalloproteinase 9, vascular endothelial growth factor, and cluster of differentiation 47 were all decreased. With the overexpression of THBS1, the results became even more pronounced. In animal experiments, combined use of ENL and Trabe showed superior inhibitory effects to either single agent and significantly suppressed tumor growth, and the overexpression of THBS1 further enhanced the anti-cancer activities of the drug combination group. ENL and Trabe synergistically suppress EOC and THBS1 could remarkably facilitate the synergistic anticancer effects of ENL and Trabe.

Abstract
Cytoreductive surgery (CRS) has emerged as a survival-extending treatment of peritoneal metastasis (PM); recent advances include using intraperitoneal chemotherapy (IPC) at normothermic or hyperthermic temperatures, or under pressure (CRS + IPC). Clinical CRS + IPC research has established its highly variable efficacy and suggested tumor size, tumor locations and presence of ascites as potential determinants. On the other hand, there is limited knowledge on the effects of pharmaceutical properties on treatment outcomes. The present study investigated the inter-subject variability of paclitaxel binding to proteins in patient ascites because some PM patients show accumulation of ascites and because activity and transport of highly protein-bound drugs such as paclitaxel are affected by protein binding. Ascites samples were collected from 26 patients and investigated for their protein contents using LC/MS/MS proteomics analysis and for the concentrations of total proteins and two major paclitaxel-binding proteins (human serum albumin or HSA and α-1-acid glycoprotein or AAG). The association constants of paclitaxel to HSA and AAG and the extent of protein binding of paclitaxel in patient ascites were studied using equilibrium dialysis. Proteomic analysis of four randomly selected samples revealed 288 proteins, >90% of which are also present in human plasma. Between 72% - 94% of paclitaxel was bound to proteins in patient ascites. The concentrations of HSA and AAG in ascites showed substantial inter-subject variations, ranging from 14.7 - 46.3 mg/mL and 0.13-2.56 mg/mL, respectively. The respective paclitaxel association constants to commercially available HSA and AAG were ∼ 3.5 and ∼ 120 mM. Calculation using these constants and the HSA and AAG concentrations in individual patient ascites indicated that these two proteins accounted for >85% of the total protein-binding of paclitaxel in ascites. The extensive drug binding to ascites proteins, by reducing the pharmacologically active free fraction, may lead to the diminished CRS efficacy in PM patients with ascites. Clinical advances in CRS + IPC have outpaced current knowledge of pharmaceutical properties in this setting. IPC, as a locally acting therapy, is subjected to processes different from those governing systemic treatments. This study, to our knowledge, is the first to illustrate the implications of drug properties in the CRS + IPC efficacy against PM. While drugs are now an integral part of PM patient management, there is limited pharmaceutical research in this treatment setting (e.g., effects of hyperthermia or pressure on drug transport or release from delivery systems, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics). Hence, CRS + IPC of PM represents an area where additional pharmaceutical research can assist further development and optimization.

Abstract
Hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) is a treatment modality that aims to target the main site of tumor dissemination in ovarian cancer, the peritoneum, by combining the benefits of intraperitoneal chemotherapy with the synergistic effects of hyperthermia all during a single administration at the time of cytoreductive surgery. High-quality evidence currently only supports the use of HIPEC with cisplatin at the time of interval cytoreduction after neoadjuvant chemotherapy for stage III epithelial ovarian cancer. Many questions remain, including HIPEC's role at other timepoints in ovarian cancer treatment, who are optimal candidates, and specifics of HIPEC protocols. This article reviews the history of normothermic and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy in ovarian cancer and evidence regarding HIPEC implementation and patient outcomes. Additionally, this review explores details of HIPEC technique and perioperative care, cost considerations, complication and quality of life data, disparities in HIPEC use, and unresolved issues.

Abstract
BACKGROUND: Intraperitoneal chemotherapy has been shown to be effective at reducing mortality for patients with advanced epithelial ovarian cancer but is not widely used in practice. METHODS: We performed the Intraperitoneal Therapy for Ovarian Cancer with Carboplatin (iPocc) trial as an open-label, international, multi-institutional, randomized phase 2/3 clinical trial in women with newly diagnosed epithelial ovarian cancer who underwent laparotomy or laparoscopy. All patients received intravenous paclitaxel (80 mg/m2 on days 1, 8, and 15 of a 21-day cycle). In addition, patients in the control group received intravenous carboplatin (dose-dense intravenous paclitaxel plus intravenous carboplatin [dd-TCiv]), whereas patients in the experimental group received dose-dense intravenous paclitaxel plus intraperitoneal carboplatin (dd-TCip). The primary end point was progression-free survival (PFS). Secondary end points included overall survival, tumor response, treatment completion rate, and incidence of adverse events (AEs). RESULTS: Among 655 patients randomized to treatment, median (95% confidence interval [CI]) PFS was 20.7 (18.1 to 22.8) months for dd-TCiv (n=328) and 23.5 (20.5 to 26.9) months for dd-TCip (n=327; hazard ratio, 0.83; 95% CI, 0.69 to 0.99; P=0.04). The PFS benefit with dd-TCip was consistent in patients with different baseline characteristics, stage, size of residual tumor, age, and performance status. The treatment completion rates were 68.3 and 59.9% in the dd-TCiv and dd-TCip groups, respectively. The incidence of intraperitoneal catheter-related AEs in the dd-TCip group was 10.1%; there were no such AEs in the dd-TCiv group. CONCLUSIONS: In the first-line treatment of advanced epithelial ovarian cancer, intraperitoneal carboplatin resulted in a modest prolongation of PFS when given with dose-dense weekly paclitaxel regardless of residual tumor size, with no impact on noncatheter-related toxicities.

Abstract
Ovarian cancer is a kind of malignant tumour which locates in the pelvic cavity without typical clinical symptoms in the early stages. Most patients are diagnosed in the late stage while about 60 % of them have suffered from the cancer cells spreading in the abdominal cavity. The high recurrence rate and mortality seriously damage the reproductive needs and health of women. Although recent advances in therapeutic regimes and other adjuvant therapies improved the overall survival of ovarian cancer, overcoming metastasis has still been a challenge and is necessary for achieving cure of ovarian cancer. To present potential targets and new strategies for curbing the occurrence of ovarian metastasis and the treatment of ovarian cancer after metastasis, the first section of this paper explained the metastatic mechanisms of ovarian cancer comprehensively. Nanomedicine, not limited to drug delivery, offers opportunities for metastatic ovarian cancer therapy. The second section of this paper emphasized the advantages of various administration routes of nanodrugs in metastatic ovarian cancer therapy. Furthermore, the third section of this paper focused on advances in nanotechnology-integrated strategies for targeting metastatic ovarian cancer based on the metastatic mechanisms of ovarian cancer. Finally, the challenges and prospects of nanotherapeutics for ovarian cancer metastasis therapy were evaluated. In general, the greatest emphasis on using nanotechnology-based strategies provides avenues for improving metastatic ovarian cancer outcomes in the future.

Abstract
PURPOSE To determine the systemic exposure to cisplatin and paclitaxel after adjuvant intraperitoneal administration in patients with advanced ovarian cancer who underwent primary debulking surgery. This could provide an explanation for the high incidence of systemic adverse events associated with this treatment regimen. METHODS This is a prospective pharmacokinetic study in patients with newly diagnosed advanced ovarian cancer who were treated with intraperitoneal administered cisplatin and paclitaxel. Plasma and peritoneal fluid samples were obtained during the first treatment cycle. The systemic exposure to cisplatin and paclitaxel was determined and compared to previously published exposure data after intravenous administration. An exploratory analysis was performed to investigate the relation between systemic exposure to cisplatin and the occurrence of adverse events. RESULTS Pharmacokinetics of ultrafiltered cisplatin were studied in eleven evaluable patients. The geometric mean [range] peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and area under the plasma-concentration time curve (AUC0-24 h) for cisplatin was 2.2 [1.8-2.7] mg/L and 10.1 [9.0-12.6] mg h/L, with a coefficient of variation (CV%) of 14 and 13.0%, respectively. The geometric mean [range] observed plasma concentration of paclitaxel was 0.06 [0.04-0.08] mg/L. No correlation was found between systemic exposure to ultrafiltered cisplatin and adverse events. CONCLUSION Systemic exposure to ultrafiltered cisplatin after intraperitoneal administration is high. In addition to a local effect, this provides a pharmacological explanation for high incidence of adverse events seen after intraperitoneal administration of high-dose cisplatin. The study was registered at ClinicalTrials.gov under registration number NCT02861872.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To evaluate the cost-effectiveness of the addition of hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) following interval cytoreductive surgery (ICS) for stage III-IV ovarian cancer from a randomized controlled phase III trial. METHODS A comparative cost-effective analysis was performed using a Markov health-state transition model derived from the current trial cohort (ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT01091636). The incremental cost-effectiveness ratio (ICER) was evaluated by dividing the incremental costs by incremental quality-adjusted life-years (QALYs) with a time horizon of 10 years. Costs were calculated from the perspective of Korean healthcare, and health utility values were extracted from published sources. RESULTS Based on data from the trial, the mean QALY in the ICS group was 7.16 compared to 10.8 in ICS followed by the HIPEC group. With an incremental QALY of 3.64, the ICS followed by HIPEC, was estimated to obtain an ICER of KRW 954,598 (USD 708.3) per QALY. CONCLUSION The findings of the study suggest that ICS followed by HIPEC, is cost-effective with a significant gain in QALYs. These results may support the current reimbursement of HIPEC from Korean insurance services and the management of long-term conditions.

Abstract
PURPOSE Ovarian cancer is the most lethal gynecologic cancer and intrinsically resistant to checkpoint immunotherapies. We sought to augment innate immunity, building on previous work with IFNs and monocytes. PATIENTS AND METHODS Preclinical experiments were designed to define the mechanisms of cancer cell death mediated by the combination of IFNs α and γ with monocytes. We translated these preclinical findings into a phase I trial of autologous IFN-activated monocytes administered intraperitoneally to platinum-resistant or -refractory ovarian cancer patients. RESULTS IFN-treated monocytes induced caspase 8-dependent apoptosis by the proapoptotic TRAIL and mediated by the death receptors 4 and 5 (DR4 and DR5, respectively) on cancer cells. Therapy was well tolerated with evidence of clinical activity, as 2 of 9 evaluable patients had a partial response by RECIST criteria, and 1 additional patient had a CA-125 response. Upregulation of monocyte-produced TRAIL and cytokines was confirmed in peripheral blood. Long-term responders had alterations in innate and adaptive immune compartments. CONCLUSIONS Given the mechanism of cancer cell death, and the acceptable tolerability of the clinical regimen, this platform presents a possibility for future combination therapies to augment anticancer immunity.

CA Cancer J Clin 2023; 73:49-71. [PMID: 35969103 DOI: 10.3322/caac.21749] [Citation(s) in RCA: 22] [Impact Index Per Article: 22.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/23/2022] [Revised: 05/12/2022] [Accepted: 06/15/2022] [Indexed: 01/17/2023] Open
Abstract
Peritoneal metastasis (PM) is often regarded as a less frequent pattern of spread; however, collectively across all spectra of primary tumors, the consequences of PM impact a large population of patients annually. Unlike other modes of metastasis, symptoms at presentation or during the treatment course are common, representing an additional challenge in the management of PM. Early efforts with chemotherapy and incomplete surgical interventions transiently improved symptoms, but durable symptom control and survival extension were rare, which established a perspective of treatment futility for PM through most of the 20th century. Notably, the continued development of better systemic therapy combinations, optimization of cytoreductive surgery (CRS), and rigorous investigation of combining regional therapy-specifically hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy-with CRS, have resulted in more effective multimodal treatment options for patients with PM. In this article, the authors provide a comprehensive review of the data establishing the contemporary approach for tumors with a high frequency of PM, including appendix, colorectal, mesothelioma, and gastric cancers. The authors also explore the emerging role of adding hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy to the well established paradigm of CRS and systemic therapy for advanced ovarian cancer, as well as the recent clinical trials identifying the efficacy of poly(adenosine diphosphate ribose) polymerase maintenance therapy. Finally, recent data are included that explore the role of precision medicine technology in PM management that, in the future, may help further improve patient selection, identify the best systemic therapy regimens, detect actionable mutations, and identify new targets for drug development.

Abstract
PURPOSE To identify prognostic factors of survival and recurrence in advanced ovarian cancer patients undergoing radical surgery and HIPEC. METHODS In a single Department of Surgical Oncology, Peritoneal Surface Malignancy Program, and over a 16-year period, from a total of 274 epithelial ovarian cancer patients, retrospectively, we identified 152 patients undergoing complete (CC-0) or near-complete (CC-1) cytoreduction, including at least one colonic resection, and HIPEC. RESULTS Mean age of patients was 58.8 years and CC-0 was possible in 72.4%. Rates of in-hospital mortality and major morbidity were 2.6% and 15.7%. Only 122 (80.3%) patients completed Adjuvant Systemic Chemotherapy (ASCH). Rates of metastatic Total Lymph Nodes (TLN), Para-Aortic and Pelvic Lymph Nodes (PAPLN) and Large Bowel Lymph Nodes (LBLN) were 58.7%, 58.5%, and 51.3%, respectively. Median, 5- and 10-year survival rates were 39 months, 43%, and 36.2%, respectively. The recurrence rate was 35.5%. On univariate analysis, CC-1, high Peritoneal Cancer Index (PCI), in-hospital morbidity, and no adjuvant chemotherapy were adverse factors for survival and recurrence. On multivariate analysis, negative survival indicators were the advanced age of patients, extensive peritoneal dissemination, low total number of TLN and no systemic PAPLN. Metastatic LBLN and segmental resection of the small bowel (SIR) were associated with a high risk for recurrence. CONCLUSION CC-O is feasible in most advanced ovarian cancer patients and HIPEC may confer a survival benefit. Radical bowel resection, with its entire mesocolon, may be necessary, as its lymph nodes often harbor metastases influencing disease recurrence and survival. The role of metastatic bowel lymph nodes has to be taken into account when assessing the impact of systemic lymphadenectomy in this group of patients.

Abstract
Despite advances in surgery and chemotherapy, the overall outcomes for patients with advanced ovarian cancer remain poor. Although initial response rates to platinum-based chemotherapy is about 60-80%, most patients will have recurrence and succumb to the disease. However, a DNA repair-directed precision medicine strategy has recently generated real hope in improving survival. The clinical development of PARP inhibitors has transformed lives for many patients with BRCA germline-deficient and/or platinum-sensitive epithelial ovarian cancers. Antiangiogenic agents and intraperitoneal chemotherapy approaches may also improve outcomes in patients. Moreover, evolving immunotherapeutic opportunities could also positively impact patient outcomes. Here we review the current clinical state of PARP inhibitors and other clinically viable targeted approaches in ovarian cancer.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Ovarian cancer is the seventh most common cancer among women and a leading cause of death from gynaecological malignancies. Epithelial ovarian cancer is the most common type, accounting for around 90% of all ovarian cancers. This specific type of ovarian cancer starts in the surface layer covering the ovary or lining of the fallopian tube. Surgery is performed either before chemotherapy (upfront or primary debulking surgery (PDS)) or in the middle of a course of treatment with chemotherapy (neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) and interval debulking surgery (IDS)), with the aim of removing all visible tumour and achieving no macroscopic residual disease (NMRD). The aim of this review is to investigate the prognostic impact of size of residual disease nodules (RD) in women who received upfront or interval cytoreductive surgery for advanced (stage III and IV) epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC). OBJECTIVES To assess the prognostic impact of residual disease after primary surgery on survival outcomes for advanced (stage III and IV) epithelial ovarian cancer. In separate analyses, primary surgery included both upfront primary debulking surgery (PDS) followed by adjuvant chemotherapy and neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by interval debulking surgery (IDS). Each residual disease threshold is considered as a separate prognostic factor. SEARCH METHODS We searched CENTRAL (2021, Issue 8), MEDLINE via Ovid (to 30 August 2021) and Embase via Ovid (to 30 August 2021). SELECTION CRITERIA We included survival data from studies of at least 100 women with advanced EOC after primary surgery. Residual disease was assessed as a prognostic factor in multivariate prognostic models. We excluded studies that reported fewer than 100 women, women with concurrent malignancies or studies that only reported unadjusted results. Women were included into two distinct groups: those who received PDS followed by platinum-based chemotherapy and those who received IDS, analysed separately. We included studies that reported all RD thresholds after surgery, but the main thresholds of interest were microscopic RD (labelled NMRD), RD 0.1 cm to 1 cm (small-volume residual disease (SVRD)) and RD > 1 cm (large-volume residual disease (LVRD)). DATA COLLECTION AND ANALYSIS Two review authors independently abstracted data and assessed risk of bias. Where possible, we synthesised the data in meta-analysis. To assess the adequacy of adjustment factors used in multivariate Cox models, we used the 'adjustment for other prognostic factors' and 'statistical analysis and reporting' domains of the quality in prognosis studies (QUIPS) tool. We also made judgements about the certainty of the evidence for each outcome in the main comparisons, using GRADE. We examined differences between FIGO stages III and IV for different thresholds of RD after primary surgery. We considered factors such as age, grade, length of follow-up, type and experience of surgeon, and type of surgery in the interpretation of any heterogeneity. We also performed sensitivity analyses that distinguished between studies that included NMRD in RD categories of < 1 cm and those that did not. This was applicable to comparisons involving RD < 1 cm with the exception of RD < 1 cm versus NMRD. We evaluated women undergoing PDS and IDS in separate analyses. MAIN RESULTS We found 46 studies reporting multivariate prognostic analyses, including RD as a prognostic factor, which met our inclusion criteria: 22,376 women who underwent PDS and 3697 who underwent IDS, all with varying levels of RD. While we identified a range of different RD thresholds, we mainly report on comparisons that are the focus of a key area of clinical uncertainty (involving NMRD, SVRD and LVRD). The comparison involving any visible disease (RD > 0 cm) and NMRD was also important. SVRD versus NMRD in a PDS setting In PDS studies, most showed an increased risk of death in all RD groups when those with macroscopic RD (MRD) were compared to NMRD. Women who had SVRD after PDS had more than twice the risk of death compared to women with NMRD (hazard ratio (HR) 2.03, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.80 to 2.29; I2 = 50%; 17 studies; 9404 participants; moderate-certainty). The analysis of progression-free survival found that women who had SVRD after PDS had nearly twice the risk of death compared to women with NMRD (HR 1.88, 95% CI 1.63 to 2.16; I2 = 63%; 10 studies; 6596 participants; moderate-certainty). LVRD versus SVRD in a PDS setting When we compared LVRD versus SVRD following surgery, the estimates were attenuated compared to NMRD comparisons. All analyses showed an overall survival benefit in women who had RD < 1 cm after surgery (HR 1.22, 95% CI 1.13 to 1.32; I2 = 0%; 5 studies; 6000 participants; moderate-certainty). The results were robust to analyses of progression-free survival. SVRD and LVRD versus NMRD in an IDS setting The one study that defined the categories as NMRD, SVRD and LVRD showed that women who had SVRD and LVRD after IDS had more than twice the risk of death compared to women who had NMRD (HR 2.09, 95% CI 1.20 to 3.66; 310 participants; I2 = 56%, and HR 2.23, 95% CI 1.49 to 3.34; 343 participants; I2 = 35%; very low-certainty, for SVRD versus NMRD and LVRD versus NMRD, respectively). LVRD versus SVRD + NMRD in an IDS setting Meta-analysis found that women who had LVRD had a greater risk of death and disease progression compared to women who had either SVRD or NMRD (HR 1.60, 95% CI 1.21 to 2.11; 6 studies; 1572 participants; I2 = 58% for overall survival and HR 1.76, 95% CI 1.23 to 2.52; 1145 participants; I2 = 60% for progression-free survival; very low-certainty). However, this result is biased as in all but one study it was not possible to distinguish NMRD within the < 1 cm thresholds. Only one study separated NMRD from SVRD; all others included NMRD in the SVRD group, which may create bias when comparing with LVRD, making interpretation challenging. MRD versus NMRD in an IDS setting Women who had any amount of MRD after IDS had more than twice the risk of death compared to women with NMRD (HR 2.11, 95% CI 1.35 to 3.29, I2 = 81%; 906 participants; very low-certainty). AUTHORS' CONCLUSIONS In a PDS setting, there is moderate-certainty evidence that the amount of RD after primary surgery is a prognostic factor for overall and progression-free survival in women with advanced ovarian cancer. We separated our analysis into three distinct categories for the survival outcome including NMRD, SVRD and LVRD. After IDS, there may be only two categories required, although this is based on very low-certainty evidence, as all but one study included NMRD in the SVRD category. The one study that separated NMRD from SVRD showed no improved survival outcome in the SVRD category, compared to LVRD. Further low-certainty evidence also supported restricting to two categories, where women who had any amount of MRD after IDS had a significantly greater risk of death compared to women with NMRD. Therefore, the evidence presented in this review cannot conclude that using three categories applies in an IDS setting (very low-certainty evidence), as was supported for PDS (which has convincing moderate-certainty evidence).

Hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) for the management of primary advanced and recurrent ovarian cancer: a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized trials. ESMO Open 2022; 7:100586. [PMID: 36116421 PMCID: PMC9588894 DOI: 10.1016/j.esmoop.2022.100586] [Citation(s) in RCA: 22] [Impact Index Per Article: 11.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/22/2022] [Revised: 07/12/2022] [Accepted: 08/13/2022] [Indexed: 11/09/2022] Open
Abstract
Introduction Ovarian cancer is the most lethal gynecologic malignancy. Although treatment with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) has shown promising results, its role remains elusive. The aim of this study was to assess the comprehensive randomized evidence for the use versus non-use of HIPEC in primary and recurrent ovarian cancer. Materials and methods The Medline, Embase and Cochrane databases, as well as the European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO) and American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) conference abstracts of the last 5 years, were scrutinized in January 2022 for randomized, controlled trials that studied the use of HIPEC in ovarian cancer. Overall survival (OS), disease-free survival (DFS) and progression-free survival, as well as post-operative morbidity were the outcomes of interest. This study was reported in accordance with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) reporting guideline. Results Six randomized, controlled trials that randomized 737 patients were included in our analysis; of these, four studies (519 patients) were in primary and two (218 patients) in recurrent settings. In primary ovarian cancer, the combination of HIPEC with interval cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and neoadjuvant chemotherapy significantly improved the 5-year OS [393 patients, risk ratio (RR) = 0.77; 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.67-0.90; P value = 0.001] and DFS (hazard ratio = 0.60; 95% CI 0.41-0.87; P value = 0.008) compared with standard treatment alone. In the absence of neoadjuvant chemotherapy, the use of HIPEC + CRS was not associated with any survival advantage (126 patients, 4-year OS, RR = 0.93; 95% CI 0.57-1.53; P value = 0.781), but the sample size was smaller in this subset. Use of HIPEC in recurrent ovarian cancer did not provide any survival advantage (5-year OS: 218 patients, RR = 0.85; 95% CI 0.45-1.62; P value = 0.626). The risk for grade ≥3 adverse events was similar between HIPEC and no HIPEC (RR = 1.08; 95% CI 0.98-1.18; P value = 0.109). Conclusions In primary ovarian cancer the combination of HIPEC with interval CRS and neoadjuvant chemotherapy is a safe option that significantly improved 5-year OS and DFS. Its use in other settings should continue to be considered investigational. Addition of HIPEC to a complete cytoreductive surgery could be a valid treatment option for advanced ovarian cancer. HIPEC following neoadjuvant chemotherapy significantly increases 5-year overall survival in primary advanced ovarian cancer. HIPEC following neoadjuvant chemotherapy significantly increases disease-free survival in primary advanced ovarian cancer. HIPEC is a safe treatment option in ovarian cancer.

What proportion of patients with stage 3 ovarian cancer are potentially cured following intraperitoneal chemotherapy? Analysis of the long term (≥10 years) survivors in NRG/GOG randomized clinical trials of intraperitoneal and intravenous chemotherapy in stage III ovarian cancer. Gynecol Oncol 2022; 166:410-416. [PMID: 35835612 DOI: 10.1016/j.ygyno.2022.07.004] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/28/2022] [Revised: 06/27/2022] [Accepted: 07/06/2022] [Indexed: 11/21/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Patients with advanced epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) alive without progression at a landmark time-point of 10 years from diagnosis are likely cured. We report the proportion of patients with Stage III EOC who were long-term disease-free survivors (LTDFS≥10 years) following either intraperitoneal (IP) or intravenous (IV) chemotherapy as well as the predictors of LTDFS. METHODS Data from 3 mature NRG/GOG trials (104, 114, 172) were analyzed and included demographics, clinicopathologic details, route of administration, and survival outcomes of patients living ≥10 years assessed according to the Kaplan-Meier method. Cox regression survival analysis was performed to evaluate independent prognostic predictors of LTDFS. RESULTS Of 1174 patients randomized, 10-year overall survival (OS) was 26% (95% CI, 23-28%) and LTDFS ≥10 years was 18% (95% CI, 16-20%). Patients with LTDFS ≥10 years had a median age of 54.6 years (p < 0.001). Younger age (p < 0.001) was the only independent prognostic factor for LTDFS≥10 years on multivariate Cox analysis. CONCLUSIONS Approximately 18% of patients were LTDFS ≥10 years. They form the tail end of the survival curve and are likely cured. Our results provide a comparative benchmark to evaluate the impact of PARP inhibitors in 1st line maintenance trials on survival outcomes.

Abstract
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE Zhibai Dihuang Granule (ZDG) is known as traditional Chinese patent medicine with the functions of "Ziyin decrease internal heat" in Traditional Chinses medicine. In clinical, it is also used to treat various kidney diseases. AIM OF THE STUDY We aimed to provide a basis for the curative effect of ZDG on acute kidney injury induced by cisplatin (CIAKI). MATERIALS AND METHODS The active compounds and protein targets of ZDG, as well as the potential targets of the CIAKI were searched from the database. The protein-protein interaction (PPI) network diagram and the drug-compounds-targets-disease network were constructed. Enrichment analysis was performed by Gene Ontology (GO) enrichment and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG). Subsequently, the effect of ZDG on the prevention and treatment of CIAKI was experimentally validated in vivo and in vitro. RESULTS From the database, we screened 22 active compounds of ZDG and 226 related targets. We obtained 498 gene targets related to CIAKI, among which 40 genes overlapped with ZDG-related targets. Go enrichment and KEGG analysis got 339 terms and 64 pathways, respectively. Based on the above study, we speculated that ZDG has the potential effect on treatment CIAKI, and the mechanism may be related to cell apoptosis and inflammation. The results in vitro experiments showed that ZDG reduced the cytotoxicity of cisplatin to HK-2 and 293T cells, but did not affect the antitumor effect of cisplatin. Moreover, in vivo experiments further proved that ZDG effectively controlled kidney damage caused by cisplatin in SD rats. The results showed that ZDG could regulate the expression of CASP3, p65 and MAPK pathway related proteins, suggesting that ZDG's prevention of CIAKI may be related to apoptosis and inflammatory response. CONCLUSIONS Our study showed that ZDG could prevent and treat CIAKI by inhibiting cell apoptosis and inflammation, which provided a new efficacy and clinical application for ZDG.

Abstract
Our goal is to overcome treatment resistance in ovarian cancer patients which occurs in most cases after an initial positive response to chemotherapy. A central resistance mechanism is the maintenance of desmoglein-2 (DSG2) positive tight junctions between malignant cells that prevents drug penetration into the tumor. We have generated JO4, a recombinant protein that binds to DSG2 resulting in the transient opening of junctions in epithelial tumors. Here we present studies toward the clinical translation of c-JO4 in combination with PEGylated liposomal doxorubicin/Doxil for ovarian cancer therapy. A manufacturing process for cGMP compliant production of JO4 was developed resulting in c-JO4. GLP toxicology studies using material from this process in DSG2 transgenic mice and cynomolgus macaques showed no treatment-related toxicities after intravenous injection at doses reaching 24 mg/kg. Multiple cycles of intravenous c-JO4 plus Doxil (four cycles, 4 weeks apart, simulating the treatment regimen in the clinical trial) elicited antibodies against c-JO4 that increased with each cycle and were accompanied by elevation of pro-inflammatory cytokines IL-6 and TNFα. Pretreatment with steroids and cyclophosphamide reduced anti-c-JO4 antibody response and blunted cytokine release. Our data indicate acceptable safety of our new treatment approach if immune reactions are monitored and counteracted with appropriate immune suppression.

Abstract
Chemotherapy for advanced ovarian cancer has progressed over the past several decades with the introduction of cytotoxic agents. Various methods, including single agents, combination therapy and changes in the method of administration, have been validated in many clinical trials and have been combined in an attempt to improve the prognosis of advanced ovarian cancer. In recent years, molecular-targeted agents have been added to cytotoxic agents as a treatment option for maintenance therapy; however, their efficacy has been limited, and further development of treatment options is expected. The advent of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitors has considerably improved prognosis and has affected treatment strategies for advanced ovarian cancer over the past few years. With the addition of the recently introduced immune checkpoint inhibitors, future treatment strategies for advanced ovarian cancer may become more complex. In this review, we introduce the latest advances in chemotherapy for advanced ovarian cancer and discuss future perspectives.

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
ObjectivesTo evaluate whether the modified intraperitoneal plus intravenous chemotherapy regimen as a first-line therapy for advanced epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) in China can be well-tolerated or confer any potential benefit on survival.MethodsWe evaluated the outcomes of women with newly diagnosed advanced-stage III-IV EOC treated with optimal cytoreductive surgery (<1 cm) and subsequent intraperitoneal plus intravenous chemotherapy or intravenous chemotherapy from January 2005 to December 2017 at two Gynecologic Oncology Centers in China. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis and Cox regression multivariate analysis models were performed to determine the toxicities and survival outcomes.ResultsA total of 463 patients with stage III-IV EOC were enrolled. According to the propensity scores (1:2), 85 patients who received intraperitoneal plus intravenous chemotherapy (group A) were matched to 170 patients who received intravenous chemotherapy (group B). The median follow-up time was 41 months (range 6–155 months). However, there was no statistically significant difference in the median progression-free survival (PFS) (20 vs. 22 months, P = 0.351) or 3-year overall survival (OS) rate (80 vs. 78%, P = 0.749) between the two groups. R0 primary cytoreductive surgery was the only factor related to PFS (P = 0.028) and OS (P = 0.005) by Cox regression analysis. The incidence of grade 3/4 adverse events did not significantly differ between the two groups.ConclusionThe efficacy of intraperitoneal chemotherapy mainly comes from the intraperitoneal drug dose intensity and cumulative dose. High-efficiency and low-toxicity intraperitoneal chemotherapy regimens still need to be found and validated.

Abstract
Ovarian cancer stem-like cells (CSCs) have been implicated in tumor recurrence, metastasis, and drug resistance. Accumulating evidence has demonstrated the antitumor effect of plasma-activated medium (PAM) in various carcinomas, including ovarian cancer. Thus, PAM represents a novel onco-therapeutic strategy. However, its impact on ovarian CSCs is unclear. Here, we show that ovarian CSCs resistant to high-dose conventional chemotherapeutic agents used for ovarian cancer treatment exhibited dose-dependent sensitivity to PAM. In addition, PAM treatment reduced the expression of stem cell markers and sphere formation, along with the aldehyde dehydrogenase- or CD133-positive cell population. We further investigated the effect of PAM in combination with other chemotherapeutics on ovarian CSCs in vitro. PAM exhibited synergistic cytotoxicity with cisplatin (CDDP) but not with paclitaxel and doxorubicin. In a peritoneal metastasis xenograft model established via intraperitoneal spheroid injection, PAM intraperitoneal therapy significantly suppressed peritoneal carcinomatosis (tumor size and number), with a more significant decrease observed due to the combined effects of PAM and CDDP with no side effects. Taken together, our results indicate that PAM inhibits ovarian CSC traits and exhibits synergetic cytotoxicity with CDDP, demonstrating PAM as a promising intraparietal chemotherapy for enhancing antitumor efficacy and reducing side effects.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Ovarian cancer (OC) is the most lethal gynecological cancer. Cytoreductive surgery (CRS) combined with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy appears to increase survival, and normothermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (IPC) could improve overall survival (OS). Furthermore, intraperitoneal epinephrine could decrease the toxicity of chemotherapy by decreasing the systemic absorption of chemotherapy. The goal of this study was to assess the effects of CRS and IPC with intraperitoneal epinephrine, as first-line therapy, on the survival of patients with serous epithelial OC (EOC) with peritoneal metastases. METHODS A prospective monocentric database was retrospectively searched for all patients with advanced serous EOC treated by interval or consolidative CRS plus IPC with intraperitoneal epinephrine after neoadjuvant chemotherapy. OS and disease-free survival (DFS), postoperative complications, and prognostic factors were analyzed. RESULTS From January 2003 to December 2017, 124 patients with serous EOC were treated with interval (n = 58) or consolidative (n = 66) complete CRS plus IPC with intraperitoneal epinephrine. The median follow-up was 77.8 months, the median OS was 60.8 months, and the median DFS was 21.2 months. In our multivariate analysis, a higher Peritoneal Cancer Index (PCI) and positive lymph node status resulted in worse OS, while higher World Health Organization score, higher PCI score, and positive lymph node status were risk factors for worse DFS. Grade 3 or higher surgical morbidity occurred in 27.42% of cases; only 3.2% had grade 3 renal toxicity and mortality was 0.8%. CONCLUSION CRS and IPC with intraperitoneal epinephrine in stage III EOC offer good OS and DFS with acceptable morbidity and mortality rates.

Abstract
Background: Epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) remains the leading cause of gynecologic cancer death worldwide due to the high recurrence rate. Cytoreductive surgery (CRS) combined with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) is an alternative modality for platinum-sensitive recurrent EOC. The latest studies demonstrate homologous recombination-related (HRR) mutation status increases the sensitivity to platinum-based chemotherapy drugs in EOC. However, the molecular analysis of recurrent EOC patient benefits from HIPEC is unknown. Thus, we aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of CRS combined with HIPEC for platinum-sensitive in recurrent EOC with HRR mutation. Methods: This is a phase III randomized controlled clinical trial in patients with platinum-sensitive recurrent EOC. Participants were divided into 2 groups based on the HRR mutation status and randomized to receive CRS + HIPEC. The patients then received periodic chemotherapy and follow-up. Results: The primary objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of CRS + HIPEC compared to CRS alone in patients with a platinum-sensitive recurrent EOC stratified for HRD status. We hypothesize that the addition of HIPEC to CRS improves the progression-free survival (PFS) of platinum-sensitive recurrent EOC patients with HRR mutation compared with patients without HRR mutation. Conclusion: Recurrent EOC has a poor prognosis due to implantation and metastasis in the abdominal cavity. Intraperitoneal chemotherapy reduced seeding by removing free tumor cells. HIPEC utilizes physical and biological properties to significantly increase the clearance rate of tumors. Van Driel WJ et al proposed that HIPEC using platinum-based chemotherapy improves the survival of patients with ovarian cancer. HRR mutation, as a common pathogenic mutation in ovarian cancer, has a predictive effect on the platinum sensitivity of ovarian cancer patients. Whether lobaplatin-based HIPEC will play a greater role in ovarian cancer patients with HRR mutations is currently unknown.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Ovarian cancer is the most lethal gynecological cancer, causing over 200,000 deaths worldwide in 2020. Initial standard treatment for primary ovarian cancer is optimal cytoreductive surgery (CRS) preceded and/or followed by intravenous platinum-based chemotherapy. However, most women develop recurrence within the peritoneal cavity and die of disease. Results of the OVIHIPEC 1 trial (2018) showed improved survival of 34% when hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) was given immediately following interval-CRS in women with stage III disease. However, it is unknown if the effect of HIPEC is due to hyperthermia, one extra cycle of intraperitoneal (IP) chemotherapy, or other factors. There is also concern that hyperthermia might be associated with an increase in adverse events (AEs) due to a heightened systemic inflammatory response. HyNOVA is a seamless, multi-stage randomized study that attempts to answer these questions by comparing HIPEC to normothermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (NIPEC), focusing on safety (stage 1), then assessing activity (stage 2) and effectiveness (stage 3). In this initial study, we hypothesize that NIPEC will result in a lower rate of severe AEs compared to HIPEC. METHODS This initial stage of HyNOVA is a phase II study of 80 women with International Federation of Gynaecology and Obstetrics stage III epithelial ovarian cancer, with at least stable disease following 3-4 cycles of neoadjuvant chemotherapy, achieving interval-CRS to <2.5 mm residual disease. Participants are randomized 1:1 to receive IP cisplatin 100 mg/m² for 90 minutes either as HIPEC, heated to 42°C (41.5°C-42.5°C), or NIPEC, at 37°C (36.5°C-37.5°C). The primary outcome is the proportion of AEs ≥ grade 3 occurring within 90 days. Secondary outcomes are AE of interest, surgical morbidity, patient reported outcomes, resource allocation, feasibility, progression-free survival and overall survival. AEs are measured using both CTCAE v5.0 and Clavien-Dindo classification, particularly infection, pain, bowel dysfunction, and anemia. Tertiary outcomes are potential predictive biomarkers measured before and after HIPEC/NIPEC including circulating cell-free tumor DNA, tissue factors, and systemic inflammatory markers. There are 4 participating Australian sites with experience in CRS and HIPEC for peritoneal malignancy. HyNOVA is funded by an MRFF grant (APP1199155).

Abstract
Intraperitoneal (i.p) chemotherapy is an attractive approach to treat peritoneally disseminated cancers by delivering therapeutic agents directly to the peritoneal cavity where some disseminated tumors are located. Cationic liposomes (CLs) have been used as a viable delivery carrier for i.p. chemotherapy to improve the peritoneal retention of anticancer agents. However, there are no reports on the fate of CLs following i.p. administration to the peritoneal cavity in the presence of disseminated tumors. We prepared a tumor xenograft murine model of peritoneally disseminated gastric cancer by i.p. inoculation of human gastric cancer cells and followed the fate of either CLs or PEGylated CLs (PEG-CLs) after i.p. injection in the model. I.p.-injected CLs were retained in peritoneal cavity for at least 3 days post-injection as a result of clustering with ascites fluid proteins, mainly albumin, while i.p. PEG-CLs was rapidly cleared from the peritoneal cavity to the circulation within 3 h post-injection. Importantly, i.p. CLs efficiently accumulated in the targeted disseminated tumor cells, but not in other abdominal organs including liver, spleen, and kidney. The tumor selectivity upon i.p. administration of CLs may be associated with the lymphatic drainage system. A lipoplex formulation composed of CLs with short hairpin RNA (shRNA) against luciferase, a model therapeutic agent, suppressed luciferase activity in peritoneally disseminated tumors by 80%, with no cytokine secretion in serum. This suggests that i.p. CLs can efficiently deliver a therapeutic agent to peritoneally disseminated tumors with few systemic adverse events. These results suggest that i.p. treatment with CLs or non-PEGylated lipoplexes may be a promising approach for the treatment of peritoneally disseminated cancers through their ability to selectively deliver therapeutic agents to i.p. target sites with minimal systemic adverse events.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and administration of hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) have shown their efficacy in multiple malignancies and also could offer a prognostic benefit for patients with advanced ovarian cancer. METHODS A prospective, single-center, parallel-group, randomized phase 3 clinical trial analyzed patients with a diagnosis of carcinomatosis from ovarian cancer treated with neoadjuvant systemic chemotherapy (NACT). In this trial, 71 patients were randomized to receive CRS alone (36 patients) or CRS with HIPEC (35 patients) using cisplatin (75 mg/m2 for 60 min at 42 °C). The primary end point was disease-free survival (DFS). Overall survival (OS), morbidity, and quality of life (QoL) were the secondary end points. RESULTS During a median follow-up period of 32 months, the median DFS was 12 months in the control group (CRS) and 18 months in the experimental group (CRS and HIPEC). The findings showed HIPEC to be an independent protective factor against the development of recurrence (hazard ratio [HR], 0.12, 95 % confidence interval [CI], 0.02-0.89; p = 0.038). The median OS was 45 months in the control group and 52 months in the experimental group. The respective morbidity rates for any grade (1 to 5) were respectively 58.3 % and 45.7 % (p > 0.05), with a mortality rates of 2.8 % and 2.9 % (p > 0.05). In the dimensions evaluated, CRS with or without HIPEC had no impact on QoL. CONCLUSIONS For patients who had advanced ovarian cancer treated with NACT, CRS and HIPEC was associated with better DFS and OS, but without a difference in postoperative morbidity, mortality, or in the QoL evaluation.

Abstract
Peritoneal surface malignancies are a group of aggressive cancers involving the peritoneum. Cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy can improve outcomes and survival in select patients. Despite significant advancements in care, racial disparities in peritoneal malignancy outcomes persist and may have even worsened over time. Poor adherence to guideline-recommended therapy introduces wide variability in patient care and often results in fewer options and suboptimal treatment of vulnerable populations. This review explores biological, sociodemographic, and environmental factors that contribute to disparities in peritoneal malignancy outcomes.

Abstract
Intraperitoneal chemotherapy demonstrates potential applicability in the treatment of peritoneally disseminated ovarian cancer because the disseminated tumors can directly receive exposure to high concentrations of anticancer drugs. However, a considerable proportion of drugs, particularly micromolecular and hydrophilic drugs, such as cisplatin (CDDP), are often excreted through glomerular filtration for a short period. To effectively deliver CDDP into peritoneally disseminated ovarian cancer tissues, we developed an alginate (AL)-based hybrid system in which a CDDP-loaded AL nanogel (AL/CDDP-nanogel) was encapsulated in an injectable AL-hydrogel cross-linked with calcium ions. This system enabled the sustained release of CDDP from the AL/CDDP-nanogel/AL-hydrogel hybrid for over a week. Herein, we constructed a peritoneally disseminated ovarian cancer mouse model using ovarian cancer cell lines with KRAS mutations (ID8-KRAS: KRASG12V). The AL/CDDP-nanogel/AL-hydrogel hybrid system showed significant antitumor activity in vivo. This therapy may be considered a novel strategy for the treatment of advanced-stage ovarian cancer with KRAS mutations.

Abstract
Epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) is among the top ten causes of cancer deaths worldwide, and is one of the most lethal gynecological malignancies in high income countries, with incidence and death rates expected to rise particularly in Asian countries where ovarian cancer is among the 5 most common cancers. Despite the plethora of randomised clinical trials investigating various systemic treatment options in EOC over the last few decades, both progression-free and overall survival have remained at approximately 16 and 40 months respectively. To date the greatest impact on treatment has been made by the use of poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitors in women with advanced EOC and a BRCA1/2 mutation. Inhibition of PARP, the key enzyme in base excision repair, is based on synthetic lethality whereby alternative DNA repair pathways in tumor cells that are deficient in homologous recombination is blocked, rendering them unviable and leading to cell death. The Australia New Zealand Gynaecological Oncology Group (ANZGOG) is the national gynecological cancer clinical trials organization for Australia and New Zealand. ANZGOG's purpose is to improve outcomes and quality of life for women with gynecological cancer through cooperative clinical trials and undertaking multidisciplinary research into the causes, prevention and treatments of gynecological cancer. This review summarizes current ovarian cancer research and treatment approaches presented by Australian and New Zealand experts in the field at the 2020 ANZGOG webinar series entitled “Ovarian Cancer systems of Care”.

Abstract
In 2014, FIGO's Committee for Gynecologic Oncology revised the staging of ovarian cancer, incorporating ovarian, fallopian tube, and peritoneal cancer into the same system. Most of these malignancies are high-grade serous carcinomas (HGSC). Stage IC is now divided into three categories: IC1 (surgical spill); IC2 (capsule ruptured before surgery or tumor on ovarian or fallopian tube surface); and IC3 (malignant cells in the ascites or peritoneal washings). The updated staging includes a revision of Stage IIIC based on spread to the retroperitoneal lymph nodes alone without intraperitoneal dissemination. This category is now subdivided into IIIA1(i) (metastasis ≤10 mm in greatest dimension), and IIIA1(ii) (metastasis >10 mm in greatest dimension). Stage IIIA2 is now "microscopic extrapelvic peritoneal involvement with or without positive retroperitoneal lymph node" metastasis. This review summarizes the genetics, surgical management, chemotherapy, and targeted therapies for epithelial cancers, and the treatment of ovarian germ cell and stromal malignancies.

A Modified Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy Regimen for Ovarian Cancer: Technique and Treatment Outcomes. Cancers (Basel) 2021; 13:cancers13194886.

Abstract
Simple Summary To overcome the limitations of intraperitoneal chemotherapy (IP), which include a low completion rate and port-related toxicities, we modified three institutional procedures concerning IP chemotherapy in patients with ovarian cancer: (i) insertion of an IP port in a neutral abdominal position, (ii) daily irrigation of the peritoneal cavity with warmed dextrose fluid (5%) for IP port patency and to prevent adhesion, and (iii) intravenous infusion of cisplatin on Day 2 after left colonic surgery. Among patients who underwent left colonic surgery, including low anterior resection, 27 were investigated to identify the rate of completion of six planned cycles and the feasibility of IP chemotherapy. With modifications in IP chemotherapy, the completion rate improved even after patients underwent left colonic surgery during cytoreduction with enhanced feasibility. Abstract This study aimed to investigate treatment outcomes concerning three institutional modifications to intraperitoneal (IP) chemotherapy for patients with ovarian cancer. The medical records of 27 patients treated with IP chemotherapy were retrospectively reviewed. All patients had three IP chemotherapy institutional modifications; modified Gynecologic Oncology Group 172 regimen was used for the chemotherapy regimen. With institutional modifications, 63.0% (17/27) completed all six cycles of IP chemotherapy. Of the 17 and 10 patients with primary and recurrent ovarian cancer, respectively, 55.6% (15/27) underwent left colonic surgery, including low anterior resection. In patients with primary ovarian cancer, the IP chemotherapy completion rate was 76.5% (13/17). In patients with and without left colonic surgery, the IP chemotherapy completion rates were 53.3% (8/15) and 75.0% (9/12), respectively. No complications related to left colonic surgery during IP chemotherapy were identified. The most frequent grade 3–4 toxicities were gastrointestinal toxicities (33.3%) and neutropenia (29.6%). The median progression-free survival was 19.5 months in all patients and 25.2 months in patients with primary ovarian cancer. Three institutional modifications to IP chemotherapy increased the completion rate for planned IP chemotherapy, even after left colonic surgery. Further studies involving a larger study cohort are required to confirm survival outcomes using these modifications.

Abstract
Surgery and platinum-based chemotherapy are highly efficacious for treating advanced ovarian cancers in humans, but their efficacy is less known in dogs. We evaluated the long-term treatment outcomes of seven dogs with malignant ovarian tumors with malignant abdominal effusion. Ovariohysterectomies (OVHs) were performed on all dogs; four had ovarian adenocarcinoma (AC) with gross dissemination in the peritoneum (two with pleural effusion), and three had a granulosa cell tumor (GCT) with no gross dissemination in the peritoneal cavity, although one showed pleural effusion. Effusion resolved after the OVH in all dogs. Six dogs (three ACs, three GCTs) received postoperative IV carboplatin therapy. Two dogs with GCT had no postoperative recurrence or metastasis, and one dog with GCT had recurrence 1811 days postoperatively. All dogs with AC developed recurrent effusion 171-584 days postoperatively, which resolved after intracavitary administration of cisplatin or carboplatin, with a subsequent disease-free interval of 155-368 days. Overall survival was longer for dogs with GCTs (822-1840 days) than for those with ACs (617-841 days). These results suggest that dogs with ovarian tumors with malignant effusion can survive relatively long after platinum-based chemotherapy in addition to OVH, with a more favorable prognosis for GCT than AC.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Peritoneal metastases (PM) are a challenge in gynecological cancers, but its appearance has never been described in a population-based study. Therefore, we describe the incidence of PM and identify predictors that increase the probability of peritoneal spread. METHODS All ovarian, endometrial and cervical cancer patients diagnosed in the Netherlands between 1989 and 2015 were identified from the Netherlands Cancer Registry and stratified for PM. Crude and age-adjusted incidence over time was calculated. Independent predictors for PM were identified using uni- and multivariable analyses. RESULTS The 94,981 patients were diagnosed with ovarian, endometrial or cervical cancer and respectively 61%, 2% and 1% presented with PM. Predictors for PM in ovarian cancer were: age between 50 and 74 years (odds ratio [OR]=1.19; 95% confidence interval [CI]=1.08-1.32), other distant metastases (OR=1.25; 95% CI=1.10-1.41), poor differentiation grade (OR=2.00; 95% CI=1.73-2.32) and serous histology. Predictors in endometrial cancer were lymph node metastases (OR=2.32; 95% CI=1.65-3.26), other distant metastases (OR=1.38; 95% CI=1.08-1.77), high-grade tumors (OR=1.95; 95% CI=1.38-2.76) and clear cell (OR=1.49; 95% CI=1.04-2.13) or serous histology (OR=2.71; 95% CI=2.15-3.42). In cervical cancer, the risk is higher in adenocarcinoma than in squamous cell carcinoma (OR=4.92; 95% CI=3.11-7.79). CONCLUSION PM are frequently seen in patients with ovarian cancer. In endometrial and cervical cancer PM are rare. Histological subtype was the strongest predictive factor for PM in all 3 cancers. Better understanding of predictive factors for PM and thus the biological behavior is of paramount importance.

Abstract
Introduction: Ovarian clear cell carcinoma (OCCC) is a less common subtype accounting for approximately 5% of all epithelial ovarian cancers (EOCs). Clinical experience and research findings confirm the remarkable differences in clinical behavior, molecular alterations and pathogenesis of OCCC. The diagnosis of OCCC is typically set at a younger age, and earlier stage and in a background of endometriosis.Results: Molecularly, OCCCs rarely harbor BRCA1/BRCA2 mutations and have fewer copy number variants (CNVs). The most common molecular changes occur in the SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling complex genes, the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway and the receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK)/Ras signaling pathway.Five-year disease-specific survival of patients with OCCC is worse compared to high grade serous carcinomas (HGSOC). The current treatment options for OCCC are based on studies that included patients with predominantly HGSOC and only a minor proportion of cancers with clear cell histology. In order to improve outcomes for patients with OCCC, research should be specific for this subtype.Discussion: As the available information about the specific characteristics of OCCC is increasing, especially at a molecular level, it should be possible to continuously improve the specific diagnostics and treatment. Since OCCC is so rare, it is essential to collect new evidence at an international level. To avoid extrapolation from EOC trials with possible erroneous conclusions, patients should always be encouraged to participate in specific histological trials and basket trials, while paying extra attention to OCCC-like subtypes.

Abstract
While oral agents have been the gold standard for cardiovascular disease therapy, the new generation of treatments is switching to other administration options that offer reduced dosing frequency and more efficacy. The lymphatic network is a unidirectional and low-pressure vascular system that is responsible for the absorption of interstitial fluids, molecules, and cells from the peripheral tissue, including the skin and the intestines. Targeting the lymphatic route for drug delivery employing traditional or new technologies and drug formulations is exponentially gaining attention in the quest to avoid the hepatic first-pass effect. The present review will give an overview of the current knowledge on the involvement of the lymphatic vessels in drug delivery in the context of cardiovascular disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The main objective of this study was to evaluate the differences between cisplatin and paclitaxel in the development of postoperative renal toxicity, using as a reference the RIFLE (Risk, Injury, Insufficiency, Loss, and End-stage renal function) and AKIN (Acute Kidney Injury Network) criteria in patients with primary or recurrent ovarian cancer with peritoneal dissemination treated with cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC). METHODS One hundred fifty-two patients who were treated between December 2007 and June 2017 were analyzed. RESULTS Patients who received previous platinum-based chemotherapy had higher baseline creatinine levels than those who had not (p = 0.05). A total of 11 (7.2%) and 4 (2.6%) patients developed an acute renal dysfunction (ARD) during the postoperative period of cytoreduction and HIPEC according to the RIFLE and AKI criteria respectively. RIFLE detects a higher rate of ARD due to different parameters such as GFR (7.2% versus 2.6%, p = 0.016). Performing ostomy (p = 0.007; OR: 39.320; 95% CI = 2.74-56.13) and using of cisplatin during HIPEC treatment (p = 0.017; OR = 13.619; 95% IC = 1.600-25.95) were factors independently related to a higher rate of ARD. CONCLUSION ARD has a multifactorial origin. Cisplatin was associated with the development of a higher rate of ARD than paclitaxel. Diagnosis of ARD did not correlate with worse survival figures.

Kim SR, Maganti M, Bernardini MQ, Laframboise S, Ferguson SE, May T. Efficacy and toxicity of intraperitoneal chemotherapy as compared to intravenous chemotherapy in the treatment of patients with advanced ovarian cancer. Int J Gynaecol Obstet 2021; 157:59-66. [PMID: 34214187 DOI: 10.1002/ijgo.13813] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/23/2021] [Revised: 05/30/2021] [Accepted: 07/01/2021] [Indexed: 11/10/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess the efficacy and toxicity of intraperitoneal (IP) chemotherapy compared to intravenous (IV) chemotherapy. METHODS Toxicity profiles, recurrence patterns, and long-term survival outcomes of 271 women with Stage IIIC or IV high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSC) treated with primary cytoreductive surgery followed by adjuvant IP or IV chemotherapy during 2001-2015 were reviewed. RESULTS Women who received IP chemotherapy (n = 91) were more likely to have undergone aggressive and longer surgery with no residual disease compared to the IV arm (n = 180). Chemotherapy-related toxicities were comparable between the two groups. Extraperitoneal recurrences were more common in the IP arm compared to the IV arm. Five-year progression-free survival was 19% versus 18% (P = 0.63) and overall survival was 73% versus 44% (P < 0.01) in the IP versus IV arms, respectively. After adjustment for significant clinicopathologic factors in a multivariable model, use of IP was no longer a statistically significant predictor of overall survival. CONCLUSION IP chemotherapy in advanced HGSC has not been widely adopted due to concerns about toxicity and inconvenience. Use of IP chemotherapy was associated with comparable safety profile and efficacy to IV chemotherapy in women with Stage IIIC/IV HGSC. Recurrences were more likely to be extraperitoneal with IP treatment.

Maximum Tolerated Dose and Anti-Tumor Activity of Intraperitoneal Cantrixil (TRX-E-002-1) in Patients with Persistent or Recurrent Ovarian Cancer, Fallopian Tube Cancer, or Primary Peritoneal Cancer: Phase I Study Results. Cancers (Basel) 2021; 13:3196. [PMID: 34206826 PMCID: PMC8268018 DOI: 10.3390/cancers13133196] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/31/2021] [Revised: 06/24/2021] [Accepted: 06/24/2021] [Indexed: 12/20/2022] Open
Abstract
Survival outcomes in ovarian cancer are poor. The aims of this Phase I progressive design study (NCT02903771) were to evaluate the maximum tolerated dose (MTD), tolerability, and antitumor activity of Cantrixil-a novel third-generation benzopyran molecule-in patients (n = 25) with advanced, recurrent/persistent epithelial ovarian, primary peritoneal, or fallopian tube cancer. All had completed ≥ 2 prior regimens; 3 (12%) had platinum-refractory disease, and 17 (68%) had platinum-resistant disease. Following intraperitoneal (IP) port placement, patients received weekly IP Cantrixil in 3-week cycles as monotherapy (Cycles 1-2), and then in combination with intravenous (IV) chemotherapy (Cycles 3-8). Part A (dose escalation) enrolled 11 patients in 6 dose-level cohorts. An MTD of 5 mg/kg was established with dose-limiting toxicity of ileus. Most treatment-related adverse events were gastrointestinal. Across Parts A and B (dose expansion), 16 (64%) patients received ≥ 1 3-week Cantrixil cycle, and had ≥ 1 post-baseline efficacy measurement available. The results show promising anti-tumor activity in monotherapy (stable disease rate of 56%) and in combination with IV chemotherapy (objective response rate of 19%, disease control rate of 56%, and median progression-free survival of 13.1 weeks). The molecular target and mechanism of action of Cantrixil are yet to be confirmed. Preliminary analysis of stem cell markers suggests that IP Cantrixil might induce ovarian cancer stem cell death and sensitize cells to standard chemotherapy, warranting further evaluation.
