A Modified Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy Regimen for Ovarian Cancer: Technique and Treatment Outcomes.

ABSTRACT: This study aimed to investigate treatment outcomes concerning three institutional modifications to intraperitoneal (IP) chemotherapy for patients with ovarian cancer. The medical records of 27 patients treated with IP chemotherapy were retrospectively reviewed. All patients had three IP chemotherapy institutional modifications; modified Gynecologic Oncology Group 172 regimen was used for the chemotherapy regimen. With institutional modifications, 63.0% (17/27) completed all six cycles of IP chemotherapy. Of the 17 and 10 patients with primary and recurrent ovarian cancer, respectively, 55.6% (15/27) underwent left colonic surgery, including low anterior resection. In patients with primary ovarian cancer, the IP chemotherapy completion rate was 76.5% (13/17). In patients with and without left colonic surgery, the IP chemotherapy completion rates were 53.3% (8/15) and 75.0% (9/12), respectively. No complications related to left colonic surgery during IP chemotherapy were identified. The most frequent grade 3-4 toxicities were gastrointestinal toxicities (33.3%) and neutropenia (29.6%). The median progression-free survival was 19.5 months in all patients and 25.2 months in patients with primary ovarian cancer. Three institutional modifications to IP chemotherapy increased the completion rate for planned IP chemotherapy, even after left colonic surgery. Further studies involving a larger study cohort are required to confirm survival outcomes using these modifications.

Project description:ObjectiveWe aimed to compare the survival outcomes and adverse events of hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC), intraperitoneal chemotherapy (IP)and intravenous chemotherapy (IP)for primary advanced ovarian cancer.MethodsPubMed, CENTRAL (Cochrane Central Registry of Controlled Trials), Embase, Web of Science and Scopus were searched using multiple terms for primary advanced ovarian cancer, including randomized controlled trials and comparative studies in both Chinese and English (up to date 15 August 2022). Outcomes include overall survival, progression-free survival and adverse events. The data were pooled and reported as hazard ratio (HRs) with 95% confidence intervals. The Newcastle-Ottawa Scales were used to assess the risk of bias in the included comparative study. The Cochrane Collaboration's Risk of Bias Tool was used for randomized controlled trials.ResultsIn total, 32 studies, including 6347 patients and 8 different platinum-based chemotherapy regimens, were included in this network meta-analysis. Our analysis results showed that HIPEC2 (carboplatin with area under the curve 10) exhibited a statistically significant OS benefit compared to IV, weekly dose-dense chemotherapy and HIPEC1 (cisplatin with 75/100 mg/m2). Intraperitoneal plus intravenous chemotherapy was associated with a statistically significantly better likelihood of overall survival compared to IV. For progression-free survival, our statistical results only suggest a better progression-free survival in ovarian cancer patients treated with HIPEC1 compared with weekly dose-dense chemotherapy. No evidence of difference was observed between the other comparison groups. Compared with the non-HIPEC group, HIPEC may had a higher incidence of electrolyte disturbances (≥grade 3).ConclusionOur statistical analysis suggests that the groups receiving HIPEC2 had a better OS than the groups receiving IV, weekly dose-dense chemotherapy and HIPEC1. For PFS, our analysis only showed HIPEC1 is better than IV. Moreover, HIPEC may lead to a higher incidence of electrolyte disturbances (≥grade 3). HIPEC therapy for advanced ovarian cancer is currently controversial.
