HIPEC and Systemic Chemotherapy in Unresectable Peritoneal Metastases From Colorectal Cancer

• Status: Terminated
• Trial end date: 2020-03-20
• Target enrollment: 0
• Participant gender: All

Summary

The prognosis of patients with unresectable peritoneal metastases from colorectal cancer is poor. These patients may obtain survival benefit from radical colorectal resection and cytoreductive surgery (CRS). The response rates of previous conversion therapy are low. Hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemoperfusion (HIPEC) and systemic chemotherapy are effective methods of reducing peritoneal cancer index (PCI) levels. The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy and safety of HIPEC and systemic chemotherapy in the conversion therapy of peritoneal metastases from colorectal cancer.
