NCT01524094

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to see if there is a difference in survival between two different treatment strategies for colorectal peritoneal surface disease. The control arm administered the currently considered standard treatment which is palliative systemic chemotherapy. The experimental arm received the combination treatment cytoreductive surgery and intraperitoneal chemotherapy. The investigators hypothesis is that the combination treatment will improve the overall survival.

Study Arms (2)

Arm A: CRS plus postop intraperitoneal chemotherapy.

EXPERIMENTAL

Cytoreductive surgery and postoperative intraperitoneal chemotherapy.

Procedure: Cytoreductive surgery (CRS) plus postoperative intraperitoneal chemotherapy (5-fluorouracil, isovorin)

Arm B: Systemic chemotherapy alone

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Systemic chemotherapy alone

Drug: Systemic chemotherapy alone (oxaliplatin, 5-fluorouracil, isovorin)

Interventions

Oxaliplatin 100 mg/ m2 as a 2 h iv infusion + 5-fluorouracil 400 mg/ m2 iv bolus + Isovorin 100 mg/ m2 as a 2 h infusion followed by 5-fluorouracil 2400 mg/ m2 as a 46 h infusion. Each cycle is given every other week until 12 cycles have been administered.

Arm B: Systemic chemotherapy alone

Cytoreductive surgery has the goal of completely resecting all visible tumor tissue in the abdomen. Sequential postoperative intraperitoneal chemotherapy has the purpose of an adjuvant treatment to eradicate microscopic residual tumor and prevent recurrences in the abdomen. The chemotherapy regimen consisted of intraperitoneal 5-fluorouracil 550 mg/ m2 and intravenous isovorin 30 mg/ m2 day 1-6 med cycles every 4-6 weeks. Six cycles were planned.

Arm A: CRS plus postop intraperitoneal chemotherapy.
