Heated Mitomycin and Cisplatin During Surgery in Treating Patients With Stomach or Gastroesophageal Cancer

Phase 2
Completed
Conditions
Gastric Adenocarcinoma
Gastroesophageal Junction Adenocarcinoma
Peritoneal Carcinomatosis
Interventions
Drug: Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy
Registration Number
NCT02891447
Lead Sponsor
M.D. Anderson Cancer Center
Brief Summary

This phase II trial studies how well heated mitomycin and cisplatin during surgery work in treating patients with stomach or gastroesophageal cancer. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as mitomycin and cisplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Heating a chemotherapy solution and infusing it directly into the abdomen may kill more tumor cells.

Detailed Description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To assess overall survival from the date of diagnosis in subjects with stage IV gastric or gastroesophageal cancer and positive cytology or carcinomatosis after cytoreduction, gastrectomy, and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy administration.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To assess the safety of cytoreduction, gastrectomy, and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy administration for subjects with gastric or gastroesophageal cancer and positive cytology or carcinomatosis.

OUTLINE:

Patients undergo hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) comprised of mitomycin and cisplatin given intraperitoneally over 60 minutes during standard of care cytoreduction and gastrectomy.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up within 4 weeks, and then every 6 months for 5 years.

Inclusion Criteria
  • Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status =< 2

  • Cytologic or histologic proof of adenocarcinoma of the stomach or gastroesophageal junction

  • Leukocytes >= 3,000/uL

  • Absolute neutrophil count >= 1,500/uL

  • Platelets >= 60,000/Ul

Exclusion Criteria
  • Distant metastatic disease not limited to peritoneum: Solid organ metastases (liver, central nervous system, lung)
  • Infections such as pneumonia or wound infections that would preclude protocol therapy
  • Women with a positive urine or serum pregnancy test are excluded from this study; women of childbearing potential (defined as those who have not undergone a hysterectomy or who have not been postmenopausal for at least 24 consecutive months) must agree to refrain from breast feeding and practice adequate contraception as specified in the informed consent. Adequate contraception consists of oral contraceptive, implantable contraceptives, injectable contraceptives, a double barrier method, or abstinence
  • Subjects with unstable angina or New York Heart Association grade II or greater congestive heart failure
  • Subjects deemed unable to comply with study and/or follow-up procedures
  • Subjects with a known hypersensitivity to protocol systemic chemotherapy that was life-threatening, required hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, or resulted in persistent or significant disability or incapacity

Overall survival from the date of diagnosis in subjects with stage IV gastric cancer

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Clavien-Dindo Surgical Complications90-days from surgery

90-day surgical complications graded according to an accepted classification scale (Clavien-Dindo) Classification of Surgical Complications Grade I: Any deviation from the normal postoperative course without the need for pharmacological treatment or surgical, endoscopic and radiological interventions. Grade II: Requiring pharmacological treatment with drugs other than such allowed for grade I complications.
