Response Prediction of Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy in Gastro- Intestinal Cancer
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Patients with gastric or colon cancer with peritoneal carcinomatosis will receive a biopsy of the tumor during their primary curative surgery. The operation is performed according to standard and includes resection of the primary tumor and any metastases and followed by HIPEC (Intraperitoneal hyperthermic chemoperfusion) according to the respective hospital standard. Organoid cultures from the biopsies are established in the research laboratory.
Various chemotherapeutic agents are tested on these tumor organoids in the laboratory and the tumor organoids are analyzed in detail with regard to genetic alterations in order to find alterations that can be addressed, if necessary, by means of targeted drugs against peritoneal carcinomatosis.
