Inclusion Criteria

Disease characteristics:

A.Histologically confirmed adenocarcinoma of the colon or rectum meeting the following criteria:

I.Synchronous or metachronous limited peritoneal disease dissemination, as described below

II.No appendiceal cancer

III.No signet ring cell type

B.Disease amenable to complete cytoreduction surgery as indicated by:

I.Peritoneal Cancer Index (PCI) <= 20 by helical CT scan and/or staging laparoscopy

II.Up to 3 small, resectable parenchymal hepatic metastases

III.No clinical, biochemical or radiological signs of biliary obstruction

IV.No symptomatic malignant ascites requiring palliative paracentesis

V.Small volume of disease in the gastro-hepatic ligament defined by a < 5 cm mass in the epigastric region on cross-sectional imaging

VI.No cross-sectional imaging findings indicative of multi-segmental ( > 1 site) small bowel obstruction, small bowel loops matted together, or gross disease of the small bowel mesentery characterized by distortion, thickening, or loss of mesenteric vascular clarity

VII.Absence of unresectable deposits over the small intestinal serosa/ mesentery

VIII.No clinical or radiological evidence of hematogenous or distant nodal (retroperitoneal, pelvic, mediastinal, peri-portal, or para-aortic) metastasis

C.Prior/Concurrent Therapy:

Patients who received prior adjuvant therapy for colorectal adenocarcinoma and/or prior first-line systemic therapy for metastatic colorectal adenocarcinoma are eligible for inclusion in the study.

Patient characteristics:

1.ECOG performance status 0-1

2.Age <65 years

3.Absolute neutrophil count > 1,200/mm³

4.WBC > 4,000/mm³

5.Platelet count 150,000/mm³

6.INR <= 1.5

7.Patients on therapeutic anticoagulant for unrelated medical condition such as atrial fibrillation or anti-thrombocyte treatment allowed provided treatment can be withheld for operation

8.Total serum bilirubin <= 1.5 mg/dL

9.Alkaline phosphatase < 2.5 times upper limit of normal (ULN)

10.SGOT < 1.5 times ULN

11.Serum creatinine normal

12.BUN normal

Exclusion Criteria

oPatients who are status post-revascularization procedures with satisfactory cardiac function are eligible

•No acute myocardial infarction within the past 6 months

•No significant history of a medical problem or co-morbidity (e.g., severe congestive heart failure or active ischemic heart disease) that would preclude a major abdominal operation

•No concurrent second malignancy requiring systemic therapy

•No psychiatric or addictive disorders, or other conditions that would preclude the patient from meeting the study requirements
