Abstrakt: Objectives: Gastric cancer remains one of the most fatal cancers, despite an intensive treatment regime of chemotherapy-surgery-chemotherapy. Peritoneal metastatic disease is commonly diagnosed post treatment regime and once established, patients are likely to die in 3-9 months. Systemic chemotherapy does not increase survival for these patients due to the poor vascularisation of this area. We are proposing the addition of pressurised intraperitoneal aerosol chemotherapy (PIPAC) to the treatment regime for curative patients as a preventive measure to reduce the risk of peritoneal metastases occurring.
Methods: This is a prospective, single centre, non-randomised, open-label pilot trial evaluating the addition of PIPAC to the standard multimodal treatment pathway. Patients will undergo standard neoadjuvant chemotherapy with four cycles of fluorouracil, leucovorin, oxaliplatin and docetaxel (FLOT), then PIPAC, followed by gastrectomy. Four cycles of FLOT will be administered post-surgery. Primary outcome is safety and feasibility, assessed by perioperative morbidity and possible interruptions of the standard multimodal treatment pathway.
