Inclusion Criteria

▪ a World Health Organisation (WHO) performance status of ≤1; ▪ histological or cytological proof of PM of a non-appendiceal colorectal adenocarcinoma with ≤50% of the tumour cells being signet ring cells; ▪ resectable disease determined by a diagnostic laparoscopy/laparotomy in combination with abdominal computed tomography and/or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI); only in patients in whom diagnostic laparoscopy or laparotomy is considered not feasible or valuable (e.g. due to known adhesions impeding adequate PCI scoring), it is also allowed to determine resectability by CT or MRI only (provided that the colorectal PM are histologically or cytologically proven); ▪ no evidence of systemic colorectal metastases within three months prior to enrolment; ▪ no systemic therapy for colorectal cancer within six months prior to enrolment; ▪ no contraindications for CRS-HIPEC; ▪ no previous CRS-HIPEC; ▪ no concurrent malignancies that interfere with the planned study treatment or the prognosis of resected colorectal PM.

Exclusion Criteria

▪ Inadequate bone marrow, renal, or liver functions (e.g. haemoglobin <6.0 mmol/L, neutrophils <1.5 x 109/L, platelets <100 x 109/L, serum creatinine >1.5 x ULN, creatinine clearance <30 ml/min, bilirubin >2 x ULN, serum liver transaminases >5 x ULN); ▪ Previous intolerance of fluoropyrimidines or both oxaliplatin and irinotecan, to such extent that the oncologist does not consider the patient eligible for systemic therapy; ▪ Serious active infections; ▪ Severe diarrhoea; ▪ Stomatitis or ulceration in the mouth or gastrointestinal tract; ▪ Recent major cardiovascular events; ▪ Unstable or uncompensated respiratory or cardiac disease; ▪ Bleeding diathesis or coagulopathy; ▪ Pregnancy or lactation.
