Brief Summary

This is an open-label, multicenter, single-arm, feasibility phase 2 trial on safety and efficacy of short-course regimen of intra-operative Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy (HIPEC) at the time of fast-track interval debulking surgery (IDS) following neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) for high tumor burden epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC).

Study Arms (1)

HIPEC

EXPERIMENTAL

Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy (NACT) followed by Cytoreductive Surgery (CRS) under a Fast-track recovery strategy plus Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy (HIPEC) and thus, Adjuvant Chemotherapy

Procedure: Cytoreductive Surgery (CRS)Procedure: Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy (HIPEC)Drug: Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy (NACT)Drug: Adjuvant ChemotherapyProcedure: Fast-track recovery strategy

Interventions

CRS was performed with standard peritonectomy procedures and visceral resections directed towards complete elimination of tumors from the abdominopelvic cavity.

HIPEC

HIPEC was performed according to the closed-abdomen technique using CDDP (25 mg/L of perfusate/m2, total limit of 240mg) for the first 10 patients and thus, using CDDP plus Doxorubicin (15mg/L) thereafter, both for 30 minutes, with an intra-abdominal target temperature of 41-43°C. Perfusate (2L/m2, ranging from 4L to 6L) was circulated using an extracorporeal circulation device (Performer HT; RAND, Medolla, Italy) at a flow rate of 700 ml/min.

HIPEC

Systemic chemotherapy included the standard combination of carboplatin (AUC 6) and paclitaxel (175 mg/m2) administered every 21 days as neoadjuvant (2-4 cycles) plus adjuvant regimens (2-4 cycles), in the total of 6 cycles of systemic chemotherapy.

Also known as: Carboplatin, Paclitaxel
HIPEC

Systemic chemotherapy included the standard combination of carboplatin (AUC 6) and paclitaxel (175 mg/m2) administered every 21 days as neoadjuvant (2-4 cycles) plus adjuvant regimens (2-4 cycles), in the total of 6 cycles of systemic chemotherapy.

Also known as: Carboplatin, Paclitaxel
HIPEC

A comprehensive fast-track program was applied to accelerate recovery, reduce morbidity, and shorten convalescence for patients enrolled in our trial.

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years - 70 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Patients with no previous treatment and candidates for elective surgery with histological diagnosis of epithelial ovarian carcinoma;
  • Clinical stage IIIB to IV, without suspicion of extra-abdominal metastasis;
  • No other malignancies in activity;
  • No previous treatments such as radiation, chemotherapy (except neoadjuvant chemotherapy in the study protocol) or major abdominal surgery;
  • Absence of neuro-psychiatric disorders, history of drug allergies, and pregnancy or breast feeding;
  • Aged between 18 and 70 years;
  • Performance status 0-2 (ECOG, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group) and / or greater than 70 points by the Karnofsky scale;
  • Appropriated cardio-respiratory, hepato-renal and hematological reserves;
  • Signing of the Consent Form.

You may not qualify if:

  • Evidence of extensive retroperitoneal lymph node involvement or unresectable disease (i.e., massive involvement of the small bowel, mesentery, or hepatic pedicle, and ureteral or biliary obstruction) at the time of CRS/HIPEC;
  • Residual disease after the CRS greater than or equal to 2.5 mm (CC-2 and CC-3);
  • Limiting obesity for CRS or HIPEC;
  • Disease progression, apparent or confirmed uncontrolled infection, or health impairment during NACT.
