NCT00165516

Brief Summary

The purposes of this study are: to evaluate the effects (good and bad) that administering heated cisplatin into the chest and abdomen cavity following surgical resection has on malignant mesothelioma; to collect data on the toxicity of cisplatin given directly into the chest and abdomen, and the levels of the cisplatin in the body; to determine if this treatment method has the possibility of helping patients with pleural mesothelioma live longer; and to determine if this treatment method can help decrease the rate of local recurrence of mesothelioma.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • To monitor tumor recurrence and patient survival, and compare those results to historic controls.

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • To document the morbidity and mortality of this treatment protocol in this patient population

    3 years

  • to evaluate the pharmacokinetics of cisplatin.

    3 years

Interventions

Heated and given as an one-hour lavage of the chest and abdomen during surgery

After the one-hour lavage, sodium thiosulfate is given intravenously
