Cytoreductive surgery and HIPEC in a 14 years old patient with peritoneal recurrence of adenocarcinoma of the right colon.

ABSTRACT: INTRODUCTION:Cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) is nowadays a feasible and effective treatment for peritoneal metastasis. We present a case of a 14 years old child with peritoneal metastasis from recurrent colorectal cancer. PRESENTATION OF CASE:Colonoscopy and CT-scan were performed leading to the diagnosis of a stenosing adenocarcinoma of the right colon in 2015. Two pelvic lesions were found at the total body PET scan, suspected for peritoneal metastasis. Neoadjuvant chemotherapy was administered, and restaging CT-scan and magnetic resonance (MRI) highlighted a partial response. The patient underwent right laparoscopic hemicolectomy. The postoperative staging was T4 N1 G3. Seven months after the last cycle of adjuvant chemotherapy, CT-scan revealed two huge abdominal masses. The patient underwent explorative laparotomy and bilateral oophorectomy, positive for metastasis from colorectal cancer and peritoneal washing cytology was positive for neoplastic cells. A CT-scan was performed on December 2017 showed a suspect lesion below the anterior abdominal wall. The case was discussed at the tumour board and the indication for CRS and HIPEC was given. In January 2018 the child underwent complete CRS and HIPEC with no complications. No adjuvant chemotherapy was administered. After 11 months the follow up is negative for the recurrent disease. DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSION:Cytoreduction and HIPEC can be performed even in children as a feasible and safe treatment with successful outcomes. As for adults, an appropriate multidisciplinary pre-operative work up and a correct cases selection is needed to have the best results even regarding the quality of life.

Project description:BackgroundUpfront cytoreductive surgery with HIPEC (CRS-HIPEC) is the standard treatment for isolated resectable colorectal peritoneal metastases (PM) in the Netherlands. This study investigates whether addition of perioperative systemic therapy to CRS-HIPEC improves oncological outcomes.MethodsThis open-label, parallel-group, phase II-III, randomised, superiority study is performed in nine Dutch tertiary referral centres. Eligible patients are adults who have a good performance status, histologically or cytologically proven resectable PM of a colorectal adenocarcinoma, no systemic colorectal metastases, no systemic therapy for colorectal cancer within six months prior to enrolment, and no previous CRS-HIPEC. Eligible patients are randomised (1:1) to perioperative systemic therapy and CRS-HIPEC (experimental arm) or upfront CRS-HIPEC alone (control arm) by using central randomisation software with minimisation stratified by a peritoneal cancer index of 0-10 or 11-20, metachronous or synchronous PM, previous systemic therapy for colorectal cancer, and HIPEC with oxaliplatin or mitomycin C. At the treating physician's discretion, perioperative systemic therapy consists of either four 3-weekly neoadjuvant and adjuvant cycles of capecitabine with oxaliplatin (CAPOX), six 2-weekly neoadjuvant and adjuvant cycles of 5-fluorouracil/leucovorin with oxaliplatin (FOLFOX), or six 2-weekly neoadjuvant cycles of 5-fluorouracil/leucovorin with irinotecan (FOLFIRI) followed by four 3-weekly (capecitabine) or six 2-weekly (5-fluorouracil/leucovorin) adjuvant cycles of fluoropyrimidine monotherapy. Bevacizumab is added to the first three (CAPOX) or four (FOLFOX/FOLFIRI) neoadjuvant cycles. The first 80 patients are enrolled in a phase II study to explore the feasibility of accrual and the feasibility, safety, and tolerance of perioperative systemic therapy. If predefined criteria of feasibility and safety are met, the study continues as a phase III study with 3-year overall survival as primary endpoint. A total of 358 patients is needed to detect the hypothesised 15% increase in 3-year overall survival (control arm 50%; experimental arm 65%). Secondary endpoints are surgical characteristics, major postoperative morbidity, progression-free survival, disease-free survival, health-related quality of life, costs, major systemic therapy related toxicity, and objective radiological and histopathological response rates.DiscussionThis is the first randomised study that prospectively compares oncological outcomes of perioperative systemic therapy and CRS-HIPEC with upfront CRS-HIPEC alone for isolated resectable colorectal PM.Trial registrationClinicaltrials.gov/ NCT02758951 , NTR/ NTR6301 , ISRCTN/ ISRCTN15977568 , EudraCT/ 2016-001865-99 .
