简要总结
In this study patients will be offered intraperitoneal atomized chemotherapy as a supplement to the standard treatment of high-risk gastric cancer (laparoscopic removal of the stomach). Two commercially available oncologic drugs will be used (doxorubicin and cisplatin).
详细描述
Gastric adenocarcinoma (GAC) is considered the fifth most common cancer in the word and the third leading cause of cancer death globally. The majority of GAC patients presents with advanced stages of disease leading to a dismal prognosis even after treatments with curative intent.
Irrespective of these tumors' origin, the peritoneum is one of the most frequent sites of metastases and recurrences that generally determines the subsequent prognosis. Additionally, it is observed that none of the currently available perioperative chemotherapy regimens have been able to reduce the risk for peritoneal deposits. Peritoneal metastases (PMs) are formed during processes that entraps the malignant cells and this restrictive milieu is thought to hinder the penetrance of drugs delivered systemically and provides grounds for the early administration of intraperitoneal treatments. The presence of malignant intraperitoneal cells that is not cleared by chemotherapy before surgery, and/or seeding of malignant cells during surgery, are probably the major reasons for the development of PM and thus the poor prognosis after seemingly micro-radical surgery.
Since only a fraction of the systemically administered chemotherapy reaches the peritoneum, the effect of intraperitoneal chemotherapy has been eagerly studied. A recent systematic review and meta-analysis identified three trials evaluating the effect of intraperitoneal chemotherapy and/or extensive peritoneal lavage in gastric cancer patients who underwent subsequent surgery. Two and five-year overall survival increased significantly in patients who had intraperitoneal chemotherapy (RR=1.62 and 3.10) and survival further increased by the addition of extensive lavage (RR= 2.33 and 6.19).
The intraperitoneal delivery and subsequent uptake of chemotherapy is improved by a new aerosol technique. Pressurized Intraperitoneal Aerosol Chemotherapy (PIPAC) has shown promising results in patients with PM from colorectal, ovarian and gastric cancer (see below), and PIPAC is feasible, safe and well tolerated by the majority of patients. Our own database assessed the outcome of PIPAC, with low-dose cisplatin and doxorubicin, in GAC patients with chemotherapy-resistant PM. Objective tumor response was documented in 40% of the patients after PIPAC, including complete histological regression in some, whereas an additional 20% had no further tumor progression (manuscript in preparation). These observations in GAC patients deliver further evidence suggesting that PIPAC can induce regression of resistant PMs in several cancer types and might meet the clinical need for new and better therapies for fatal cancer disease states. Our results also provide evidence that low-dose PIPAC therapy might be effective in treating patients with recurrent, chemo-resistant gastric PMs, including the aggressive signet-ring histology.
The imminent question is whether PIPAC delivered immediately after a laparoscopic gastrectomy for GAC, in patients being exposed to a significant risk of early recurrent disease, can be safely carried out? If so, for the first time, a corresponding therapeutic concept can be offered to similar GAC patients in addition to surgery with curative intent. This could potentially increase progression free and eventually overall survival.
