Follow-up for More than 10 Years of Patients with Peritoneal Metastases Treated with Cytoreductive Surgery + Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy in a Specialized Unit.

Cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) have demonstrated their impact on disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) of patients with peritoneal metastases (PM). However, prior literature lacks evidence regarding any follow-up beyond 5 years. In this study, we analyse long-term OS and DFS (more than 10 years of follow-up) of patients undergoing CRS + HIPEC in a specialized unit.

Cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy for pseudomyxoma peritonei and appendix tumours in elderly patients: Is it justified?

Background: Cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) for pseudomyxoma peritonei and appendix tumours are widespread in the world. It is unclear what should be the attitude in elderly patients.

Methods: This retrospective multicenter study collected the database from ten Spanish centers from Spanish Group of Peritoneal Cancer Surgery.

Morbidity and mortality outcomes after cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy in patients aged 75 years and over: Spanish group of peritoneal cancer surgery (GECOP) multicenter study.

Background: The aim of this study is to report the perioperative outcomes of cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraoperative intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) in patients ≥75 years from a Spanish multi-institutional experience.

Methods: This multi-institutional retrospectively analyzed a prospectively collected clinical data from 10 Spanish hospitals that are part of the Spanish Group Peritoneal Cancer Surgery (GECOP). We assessed postoperative morbidity rates and performed univariate and multivariate analyses of factors associated with overall (grade I-IV) and major (grade III-IV) postoperative morbidity.

Platelet Dynamics in Peritoneal Carcinomatosis Patients Treated with Cytoreductive Surgery and Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Oxaliplatin.

The aim of the study was to characterize the platelet count (PLT) dynamics in peritoneal carcinomatosis patients treated with cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal oxaliplatin (HIO). Data from patients treated with CRS alone (N = 18) or CRS and HIO (N = 62) were used to estimate the baseline platelet count (PLT0), rate constants for platelet maturation (k tr ) and platelet random destruction (k s ), feedback on progenitor cell proliferation (γ), and the drug-specific model parameters (α, β). Plasma oxaliplatin concentrations, C p , reduced the proliferation rate of progenitor cells (k prol) according to a power function α × C p (β) .

Rate and extent of oxaliplatin absorption after hyperthermic intraperitoneal administration in peritoneal carcinomatosis patients.

Purpose: To determine the rate and extent of hyperthermic intraperitoneal oxaliplatin (HIO) absorption in peritoneal carcinomatosis patients treated with cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and the effect of the isotonic carrier solution on HIO absorption parameters.

Methods: Full pharmacokinetic profiles collected in peritoneum and plasma from 57 subjects treated with CRS followed by 30 min of HIO were pooled with sparse plasma concentrations collected from 50 patients with solid tumors treated with intravenous oxaliplatin. Pharmacokinetic data were jointly analyzed with nonlinear mixed-effect model (NONMEM VII software).

Neutrophil dynamics in peritoneal carcinomatosis patients treated with cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal oxaliplatin.

Background And Objective: Peritoneal carcinomatosis is an abdominal metastatic manifestation of a life-threatening tumour progression requiring standard palliative surgery and/or chemotherapy treatment. The aim of this study was to characterize the immediate neutrophilia response induced by cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and the myelosuppression effect of hyperthermic intraperitoneal oxaliplatin (HIO) in peritoneal carcinomatosis patients.

Methods: Absolute neutrophil counts (ANCs) from 45 patients treated with CRS and HIO diluted in isotonic 4 % icodextrin (cohort A), 21 patients undergoing CRS followed by HIO diluted in isotonic 5 % dextrose (cohort B) and 18 patients treated with CRS without HIO (cohort C) were used to estimate the system-related parameters [baseline ANC (Circ₀), mean transit time (MTT) and feedback on proliferation (γ)] and drug-specific (α) parameters of a modified Friberg's model that accounts for the surgical stress-induced neutrophilia.

Population pharmacokinetics of hyperthermic intraperitoneal oxaliplatin in patients with peritoneal carcinomatosis after cytoreductive surgery.

Purpose: To characterize the hyperthermic intraperitoneal oxaliplatin (HIO) pharmacokinetics in peritoneum and plasma in patients with peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC) after cytoreductive surgery (CRS).

Methods: Data from 36 patients receiving HIO diluted in isotonic 4% icodextrin were combined with data from 13 patients receiving HIO diluted in isotonic 5% dextrose. Total oxaliplatin in peritoneal and plasma fluids were used to characterize an open two-compartment disposition model with linear distribution and elimination and first-order absorption from peritoneum to plasma using NONMEM software.

Cytoreductive surgery and perioperative intraperitoneal chemotherapy in patients with peritoneal carcinomatosis of colonic origin: outcomes after 7 years' experience of a new centre for peritoneal surface malignancies.

Introduction: Peritoneal carcinomatosis is a relatively frequent situation in the natural history of colorectal cancer and is associated with a dismal prognosis. Promising results have been shown after radical cytoreduction followed by intraperitoneal chemohyperthermic perfusion. The aim our study was to assess the outcomes after treating patients with peritoneal carcinomatosis of colonic origin by means of cytoreductive surgery and intraoperative hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) followed by early postoperative intraperitoneal chemotherapy (EPIC).

Controversial origin of Pseudomyxoma peritonei.

Pseudomyxoma peritonei describes the accumulation of mucinous material in the abdominal cavity. The main diagnostic problem appears when the primary site of origin could be appendix or ovary. In this paper describe clinicopathological features and biological markers that support appendiceal origin.
