Oxaliplatin in PIPAC for Nonresectable Peritoneal Metastases of Digestive Cancers

Summary

Current curative treatment of digestive peritoneal carcinomatosis consists of complete cytoreduction surgery associated with intraperitoneal chemotherapy. This treatment has important limits: a high morbimortality and the impossibility of repeating the sessions. The majority of patients are therefore treated with systemic chemotherapy, which despite its progress, remains palliative. Pressurized Intraperitoneal aerosol chemotherapy (PIPAC) has many advantages: under laparoscopy, low morbidity, good intratumoral penetration of cytotoxics, possibility of repeating the sessions and low financial cost. Therefore, the investigator propose a phase 1 study, in colorectal and stomach cancer, with oxaliplatin doses escalation in Pressurized Intraperitoneal aerosol chemotherapy. It would allow a better tumor response, with potentially few risks and thus improve survival in patients with digestive peritoneal carcinoses, increasing access to cytoreductive surgery.
