NCT02735928

Brief Summary

Patients with first recurrent resistance ovarian cancer and disease progression with peritoneal carcinomatosis will undergo PIPAC procedure. The primary end point is to determine the clinical benefit rate (CBR) of a pressurized intraperitoneal aerosol chemotherapy with a combination of cisplatin and doxorubicin.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Clinical Benefit Rate (CBR) according to RECIST/GCOG criteria after three cycles of PIPAC with PIPAC cisplatin and doxorubicin

    Evaluation of target lesions will be done as follows: * Complete Response (CR): Disappearance of all target lesions. Any pathological lymph nodes (whether target or non-target) must have reduction in short axis to \<10 mm. * Partial Response (PR): At least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum diameters. * Progressive Disease (PD): At least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study (this includes the baseline sum if that is the smallest on study). In addition to the relative increase

    12-18 weeks

Secondary Outcomes (5)

  • The median time to progression according to RECIST criteria after three cycles of PIPAC with cisplatin

    1 Year

  • Fagotti score, as assessed by laparoscopy

    1 Year

  • The degree of histological regression assessed by pathological review of repeated peritoneal biopsies

    1 Year

  • The proportion of women with a reduction of serum CA-125 of at least 50% after PIPAC

    1 Year

  • Evaluation of the Quality Of Life (QOL) on the basis of the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) QOL questionnaires

    1 year

Study Arms (1)

PIPAC

EXPERIMENTAL

PIPAC stands for Pressurized IntraPeritoneal Aerosol Chemotherapies. Enrolled patients will undergo to explorative laparoscopy as usual and PC index will be determined according to Fagotti score (PIV). Pathological response will be determined by serial peritoneal biopsies. Then a pressurized aerosol containing cisplatin followed by doxorubicin will be applied via a nebulizer. The PIPAC procedure can be repeated after 4-6 weeks until progression or limiting toxicity

Device: Pressurized intraperitoneal aerosol chemotherapy with cisplatin and doxorubicin

Interventions

After insufflation of a 12 mmHg of capnoperitoneum at 37 °C, two balloon trocars will be placed. Parietal biopsies will be taken and ascites (\< 500cc) will be removed. A nebulizer will be connected to a high-pressure injector and will be inserted into the abdomen through a trocar. A pressurized aerosol containing cisplatin at a dose of 10.5 mg/m2 body surface in 150 ml NaCl 0.9 % followed by doxorubicin at a dose of 2.1 mg/m2 body surface in a 50 ml NaCl 0.9% solution will be applied via a nebulizer immediately. Then, the system will be kept in steady-state for 30 min (i.e.: application time).
