NCT05318794

Brief Summary

Data demonstrating the efficacy of PIPAC in patients with regionally advanced gastric cancer with positive peritoneal cytology and/or minimal peritoneal disease is limited due to the relatively recent development of this technique and its historical preferential use in palliative patients with disseminated peritoneal metastasis. Existing data suggest PIPAC administered every six weeks in conjunction with standard treatment may work as an adjunct to conventional systemic neoadjuvant chemotherapy. PIPAC protocols have been established both for gastric cancer as well as other intra-abdominal malignancies and have a good safety profile. Given these promising findings, a study protocol is proposed herein to further investigate PIPAC for the treatment of a highly selected group of patients with regionally advanced gastric cancer (positive peritoneal cytology and/or minimal peritoneal disease).

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Feasibility and safety of combined neoadjuvant systemic chemotherapy and pressurised intraperitoneal aerosol chemotherapy (PIPAC)

    Barrier and mitigating factors or the provision of combined neoadjuvant systemic chemotherapy and PIPAC will be assessed. Safety of this intervention in terms of risks to patients and staff will also be evaluated.

    2 years

Secondary Outcomes (4)
