The Role of Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy in Uterine Cancer Therapy. Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:12353. [PMID: 37569726 PMCID: PMC10419250 DOI: 10.3390/ijms241512353] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/16/2023] [Revised: 07/28/2023] [Accepted: 07/30/2023] [Indexed: 08/13/2023] Open
Abstract
Endometrial cancer and uterine sarcoma represent the two major types of uterine cancer. In advanced stages, both cancer entities are challenging to treat and correlate with a meagre survival and prognosis. Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy (HIPEC) is a form of localized chemotherapy that is heated to improve the chemotherapeutic effect on peritoneal metastases. The aim of the current review is to study the role of HIPEC in the treatment of uterine cancer. A literature review was conducted using the MEDLINE and LIVIVO databases with a view to identifying relevant studies. By employing the search terms "hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy", "uterine cancer", "endometrial cancer", and/or "uterine sarcoma", we managed to identify 26 studies published between 2004 and 2023. The present work embodies the most up-to-date, comprehensive review of the literature centering on the particular role of HIPEC as treatment modality for peritoneally metastasized uterine cancer. Patients treated with cytoreductive surgery, alongside HIPEC, seem to profit from not only higher survival but also lower recurrence rates. Factors such as the completeness of cytoreductive surgery, the peritoneal cancer index, the histologic subtype, or the applied chemotherapeutic agent, all influence HIPEC therapy effectiveness. In summary, HIPEC seems to represent a promising treatment alternative for aggressive uterine cancer.

Düzgün Ö, Kalin M. Is There a Role for Cytoreductive Surgery and Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy in Peritoneal Carcinomatosis Due to Uterine Cancer? J Pers Med 2022; 12:jpm12111790. [PMID: 36579503 PMCID: PMC9693328 DOI: 10.3390/jpm12111790] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/17/2022] [Revised: 10/17/2022] [Accepted: 10/26/2022] [Indexed: 01/01/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Uterine canceris one of the most common pelvic tumors in females. Advanced stage uterine cancer only represents 15% of newly diagnosed cases; however, they are related with poor prognosis. Our aim was to analyze the benefits of cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy in peritoneal carcinomatosis due to uterine cancer. METHODS At the Istanbul Umraniye Training and Research Hospital, Surgical Oncology Clinic, morbidity, overall survival and survival without progression were analyzed over the 5-year follow up. Twenty-two cases who had undergone cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy due to uterine-peritoneal carcinomatosis were included in this study. Cases were followed up in terms of postoperative morbidity-mortality, disease-free survival and overall survival. The cut off value for the peritoneal carcinomatosis index score was set at 15. Intraperitoneal chemotherapy consisting of cisplatin and doxorubicin was applied to all patients for 60 min after the suturation of the abdomen. RESULTS Median age of the patients was 64.6 (43-72). Average PCI score was 12.8 (3-15). CC score was 0 in 16 (72.7%) cases, 1 in 3 cases and 2 in 3 cases. Of these patients, 12 of them were previously operated upon. Median stay at the hospital was 13.1 days. No major complications due to chemotherapy were reported. A Clavien-Dindo Grade 3 complication was observed in seven (31.8%) patients. Mortality was not observed in patients during their stay at the hospital. The 5-year disease-free survival and overall survival rates were 36.8 (36%) months and 45.3 (57%) months, respectively. CONCLUSIONS We think that due to longer disease-free survival and overall survival, cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy should be preferred in peritoneal carcinomatosis due to uterine cancer patients having low peritoneal carcinomatosis index scores and manageable complication rates. However, prospective randomizedtrials with a high number of cases are needed for this subject.

Abstract
Introduction Lymphatic spread is the most common route of spread of endometrial carcinoma, and the most frequently involved lymph nodes are those of the external iliac group. MRI is one of the best imaging tools for the preoperative evaluation of patients with endometrial carcinoma. The objective of the current study is to analyze the relationship between tumor size and lymph node metastasis in patients with type I endometrial carcinoma. Methods This is a prospective observational study performed in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology at Liaquat National Hospital, Karachi, Pakistan. The duration of the study was from January 2020 to January 2021. During this period, 86 patients with biopsy-proven type I endometrial carcinoma were selected. Tumor size was measured by MRI. All participants underwent a total abdominal hysterectomy, bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy, and bilateral pelvic lymphadenectomy. Histopathological evaluation was performed according to the College of American Pathologists (CAP) protocols, and staging was performed using the 2009 International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) staging system. Lymph nodes were considered positive or negative, irrespective of their number. Result Of the 86 patients, 25 (29.1%) had positive lymph node metastasis. The mean tumor size with positive lymph node metastasis by MRI and histopathology was 7.86 cm and 10.21 cm, respectively. Tumor size determined by MRI and histopathology was significantly associated with lymph node metastasis (p < 0.01 and p < 0.01, respectively). Tumor size was positively correlated with lymph node metastasis (r = 0.715). The cutoff value of >6.5 cm by MRI was established as the statistically significant differentiator of lymph node metastasis. The calculated sensitivity and specificity were 88% and 90.16%, respectively, with an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.920. The cutoff value of >8 cm by histopathology was established as the statistically significant differentiator of lymph node metastasis. The calculated sensitivity and specificity were 80% and 88.52%, respectively, with an AUC of 0.907. Conclusion Our results showed that lymph node metastasis in patients with type I endometrial carcinoma can be predicted by tumor size. This may help incorporate adequate surgical skills and management plans in the treatment course of type I endometrial carcinoma.

Repeat Cytoreductive Surgery with Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy for Cancers with Peritoneal Metastasis: A 30-year Institutional Experience. Ann Surg Oncol 2022; 29:3436-3445. [PMID: 35286531 PMCID: PMC10088912 DOI: 10.1245/s10434-022-11441-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/21/2021] [Accepted: 01/26/2022] [Indexed: 12/25/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Cytoreductive surgery with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (CRS-HIPEC) improves survival in abdominal cancer patients with metastatic disease limited to the peritoneal cavity. Patients are increasingly being offered repeat CRS-HIPECs for peritoneal recurrence. However, in this rare clinical scenario, the survival benefit of performing repeat CRS-HIPEC operations remains unclear. METHODS A retrospective review of the CRS-HIPEC database at Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center was performed over a 30-year timespan. From 1547 patients with appendix cancers, colorectal cancers, mesotheliomas, and other miscellaneous cancers, 156 received more than one CRS-HIPEC. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis was performed using overall survival (OS) from the time of surgery as the primary endpoint. Multi-variable Cox proportional hazards regression modelling was performed on pertinent clinical variables. RESULTS Patients who received multiple CRS-HIPECs had significantly better median OS (10.7 years) versus those who received one CRS-HIPEC (2.5 years), with appendix cancers faring best (12.9 years). Resection status R2a or better was achieved in 76.4% of repeat CRS-HIPECs. There were no significant changes in complication rates after repeat CRS-HIPEC. On multivariate analysis of repeat CRS-HIPEC, patients with appendix and colorectal cancers, heart disease, and poor functional status were independently associated with poor OS. Factors not independently associated with OS were age, sex, body mass index, race, diabetes, lung disease, smoking history, and systemic chemotherapy between CRS-HIPECs. CONCLUSIONS Performing multiple CRS-HIPEC operations on appropriate surgical candidates may significantly prolong survival. Appendix cancers derived the greatest benefit. Satisfactory resection margins and complication rates are comparable to first cases and achievable in repeat CRS-HIPEC procedures.

Abstract
Objective To investigate the benefit of cytoreductive surgery (CRS) combined with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) for the treatment of endometrial peritoneal carcinomatosis compared to CRS alone. Methods We conducted a retrospective multicentre study of patients from experienced centres in treating peritoneal malignancies from 2002 to 2015. Patients who underwent surgery for peritoneal evolution of endometrial cancer (EC) were included. Two groups of 30 women were matched and compared: “CRS + HIPEC” which used HIPEC after CRS, and “CRS only” which did not use HIPEC. We analysed clinical, pathologic and treatment data for patients with peritoneal metastases from EC. The outcome measures were morbidity, overall survival (OS), and progression-free survival (PFS). Results In “CRS plus HIPEC” group, 96.7% of women were treated for recurrence, while in “CRS only” 83.3 were treated for primary disease. There was no significant difference between Peritoneal Carcinomatosis Index at laparotomy or Completeness of Cytoreduction score. Grade III and IV complications rates did not significantly differ between “CRS plus HIPEC” group and “CRS only” group (20.7% vs 20.7%, p = 0.739). Survival analysis showed no statistical difference between both groups. Median OS time was 19.2 months in “CRS plus HIPEC” group and 29.7 months in “CRS only” group (p = 0.606). Median PFS survival time was 10.7 months in “CRS plus HIPEC” group and 13.1 months in “CRS only” group (p = 0.511). Conclusion The use of HIPEC combined to CRS did not have any significance as regard the DFS and OS over CRS alone in patients with primary or recurrent peritoneal metastasis of endometrial cancer.

Abstract
In this small series, HIPEC is well tolerated in patients with advanced USC. HIPEC at IDS is associated with favorable PFS and OS in advanced USC. Further investigation of HIPEC in women with advanced USC is warranted.
Objective(s) To investigate the efficacy and safety of hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) at the time of iterval debulking surgery (IDS) in women with advanced uterine serous carcinoma (USC) following neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT). Methods An IRB-approved single-institution prospective registry was queried to identify women with incidentally identified USC at the time of IDS + HIPEC for high-grade serous carcinoma. Patient demographic, oncologic, and surgical outcomes data were recorded. Univariate analysis determined progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS). Results In total, seven patients were found to have advanced USC after undergoing IDS + HIPEC, with a median age of 64.5 years. The majority had stage IV, (n = 6, 85.7%), MMR proficient (n = 5, 71.4%), p53 mutant (n = 6, 85.1%) USC. The median pre-operative CA125 was 24.0U/mL. HIPEC regimen was cisplatin (n = 3, 42.9%) or cisplatin with paclitaxel (n = 4, 57.1%). All patients underwent optimal cytoreduction, with 71.4% (n = 5) having no gross residual disease. Accordion post-operative complications were mild in 14.3% (n = 1), moderate in 57.1% (n = 4) and severe in 14.3% (n = 1); 14.3% (n = 1) had no complications. The median length of stay was 6.5 days (IQR 4–8 days) with a median time to chemotherapy of 33.0 days. The median PFS was 14.0 months (95% CI 3.5–20.8 months), and the median OS was 27.0 months (95% CI 5.1- not reached). Conclusions In this small, prospective series, we demonstrate that IDS + HIPEC is well tolerated in patients with USC and is associated with favorable PFS and OS following NACT. Further prospective investigation is needed to validate these promising findings in larger, heterogeneous cohorts of women with advanced USC who are not candidates for primary surgical management.

Abstract
Endometrial cancer may disseminate by the blood, the lymph, or through peritoneal spaces. Not all endometrial cancers spread by all three routes. Successful treatment by surgery and regional chemotherapy occurred with isolated spread to the peritoneum. Knowledgeable histopathologic examination of the primary cancer can predict routes of cancer dissemination.
Introduction and importance Endometrial cancer may disseminate through lymphatic channels to pelvic and retroperitoneal lymph nodes, through the bloodstream to the lungs, or through the peritoneal space to peritoneal surfaces. However, not all endometrial cancers involve all 3 sites for metastatic disease. Case presentation A patient with large volume of symptomatic recurrence of peritoneal metastases from endometrial cancer was subjected to additional surgery and both regional and systemic chemotherapy. All aspects of her disease and its treatment were studied. Clinical discussion The primary malignancy was treated by a laparoscopic hysterectomy and bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy followed by intravaginal radiation. Large volume recurrent disease limited to the abdomen and pelvis was treated by complete cytoreductive surgery (CRS), hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) and early postoperative intraperitoneal chemotherapy (EPIC). After recovery from surgery, systemic chemotherapy with cisplatin and paclitaxel was administered. The patient is now 25 months following treatment for recurrent cancer and free of disease. Conclusions The possibility of complete resection of recurrent endometrial cancer combined with HIPEC, EPIC and systemic chemotherapy is a treatment option for selected patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Endometrial cancer presenting with peritoneal metastases carries a poor prognosis. The addition of hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) to the surgical management of these patients has been studied in recent years, but only with cisplatin. CASES This is a series of 3 patients presenting with endometrial cancer and synchronous peritoneal metastases who underwent cytoreductive surgery and carboplatin HIPEC as primary treatment. Complete cytoreductive surgery was achieved for each patient. No grade 3-5 complications were observed. Two patients died at 12 and 18 months, respectively, and 1 patient was alive with disease at 29 months. CONCLUSION This case series suggests that the addition of carboplatin HIPEC to the surgical management of peritoneal metastases from endometrial cancer is safe as primary treatment. However, long-term survival remains poor.

Intraperitoneal hyperthermic chemotherapy after cytoreduction in patients with peritoneal metastases from endometrial cancer. The next frontier? Surg Oncol 2019; 33:19-23. [PMID: 32561085 DOI: 10.1016/j.suronc.2019.12.002] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/11/2019] [Revised: 11/25/2019] [Accepted: 12/18/2019] [Indexed: 10/25/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Endometrial cancer is the most common malignancy of the female genital tract. For cancers detected at an advanced stage or intraperitoneal relapse, the prognosis is poor. Optimal cytoreductive surgery (CRS) is the most accepted treatment; however, patients with advanced intraperitoneal disease might benefit from hyperthermic intraoperative peritoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC). The aim of this study was to analyze recurrence-free survival (RFS) after CRS and HIPEC in a large series of patients with peritoneal metastases from endometrial cancer. METHODS Patients with a diagnosis of endometrial cancer with primary or recurrent peritoneal dissemination were included. All patients underwent CRS plus HIPEC. Data were prospectively collected in the Spanish Group of Peritoneal Oncological Surgery (GECOP) database. RESULTS Forty-three patients with endometrial cancer and peritoneal metastasis were included. Fifteen patients (35%) were diagnosed with G3 endometrioid carcinomas and 28 (65%) with other non-endometroid histologies. A completeness of cytoreduction score of CC-0 was achieved in 41 patients (95%). RFS at 5 years was 23%, being factors related to worse RFS: treatment with preoperative chemotherapy (p = 0.027), resection of more than three peritoneal areas (p = 0.010), cytoreduction of the upper abdominal space (p = 0.023), HIPEC treatment with paclitaxel (p = 0.013), and the presence of metastatic lymph nodes (p = 0.029). CONCLUSIONS Better RFS rates after CRS and HIPEC were observed for patients with the following characteristics: cytoreductive surgery without preoperative chemotherapy, complete surgery performed with limited surgical maneuvers, treated with cisplatin, and no lymph node metastases. SYNOPSIS Endometrial cancer has a poor prognosis when diagnosed at advance stage. Patients with intraperitoneal metastases from endometrial cancer may benefit from CRS plus HIPEC with improvement in the recurrence-free survival results.
