Article Synopsis
- PIPAC (Pressurized Intra-Peritoneal Aerosol Chemotherapy) is a new technique for delivering chemotherapy directly into the abdominal cavity, aimed at improving drug distribution and penetration in patients with gastric and colorectal cancer.
- The study focuses on determining the safe and tolerable dose of PIPAC oxaliplatin, starting at 45 mg/m, while also evaluating its effectiveness in treating cancer with specific assessment criteria.
- The findings from this phase I trial are intended to establish the best dosing strategy for PIPAC oxaliplatin, maximizing its potential benefits for patients undergoing this treatment.
