Hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemoperfusion with high dose oxaliplatin: Influence of perfusion temperature on postoperative outcome and survival.

ABSTRACT:

Unlabelled

Introduction : Hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) is becoming a standard therapy in the treatment of peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC). Compared to systemic chemotherapy, HIPEC improves survival in patients with PC. This therapy has high morbidity rates (up to 41%). In vitro it has been demonstrated that hyperthermia has a toxic effect on malign cells. However, hyperthermia also affects normal tissue. To my knowledge, any additional effect of hyperthermia combined with chemotherapy has never been demonstrated in a clinical setting. In this study, the effects of hyperthermia on outcome and survival were analyzed. Methods : Patients with PC from any origin who were treated with HIPEC were included in this retrospective, non-randomized study. Data on patient characteristics, tumor characteristics, features of the surgery and postoperative complications were extracted from patient files. Models predicting time to removal of nasogastric tube (TRNT), post-operative major complications, the occurrence of anastomotic leaks and post-operative survival were built, using negative binomial regression, logistic regression or Cox proportional hazards regression as appropriate.

Results

138 patients treated with HIPEC were included. Maximal temperature during the operation was not statistically significantly associated with anastomotic leaks or post-operative major complications. Maximal temperature during the operation was negatively associated with post-operative survival (P=0.01). Conclusion : The results suggest that hyperthermia may negatively affect survival in patients who are treated with HIPEC for PC of various origins. This study has the classical limitations of a retrospective study. Therefore, randomized trials are required to confirm the results.

Project description:BackgroundHyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) targets intraperitoneal tumors with heated drug solutions via catheters inserted into the peritoneal space. Although studies have focused on clinical outcomes, the flow dynamics at specific intra-abdominal locations at-risk of harboring malignant cells remain poorly understood but are likely to impact the drug pharmacokinetics. Consequently, optimal protocols remain uncertain, with efficacy critically dependent on drug temperature and flow rate. This study tested the hypothesis that fluid flow dynamics at specific at-risk locations could be evaluated via a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model of closed HIPEC in a simulated human abdominal cavity, with the goal to enable protocol optimization.MethodsA computer-aided-design (CAD) model of a human intraperitoneal cavity (30 L) was coupled with computational fluid dynamics analysis. The tested HIPEC cycle parameters included catheter position and flow rates. The cavity was subjected to forward (superior to inferior flow) or reverse flow directions at 800 or 1,120 cc/min through four catheters, two as inlets and two as outlets, placed in upper and lower abdominal positions (net fluid volume: 18.5 L). Probes to measure temperature and flow were simulated between small and large bowels, inferior to small bowel mesentery, next to duodenum, superior to liver, superior to fundus, posterior to stomach, and posterior to liver.ResultsThe simulations highlight heterogeneity in temperatures and flow that may occur during HIPEC at particular at-risk locations as a function of chemotherapy flow rate and direction. Temperature and fluid flow over the course of 90 min respectively varied from 0.93 K and <0.001 m/s inferior to small bowel mesentery (800 cc/min forward flow) to 3.6 K and 0.01 m/s next to the duodenum (either 800 or 1,120 cc/min forward flow). The results further suggest that monitoring outflow temperature may be inadequate for assessing HIPEC performance at at-risk locations.ConclusionsWithout intra-abdominal temperature monitoring at at-risk locations, it may be unfeasible to determine whether target temperatures and temperature homogeneity are being achieved during HIPEC. This work demonstrates that computational analysis offers the capability to monitor intra-abdominal locations at-risk of suboptimal heating and fluid flow given specific HIPEC parameters, and represents a first step towards designing efficacious tumor targeting during HIPEC.

Project description:ObjectiveWe aimed to compare the survival outcomes and adverse events of hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC), intraperitoneal chemotherapy (IP)and intravenous chemotherapy (IP)for primary advanced ovarian cancer.MethodsPubMed, CENTRAL (Cochrane Central Registry of Controlled Trials), Embase, Web of Science and Scopus were searched using multiple terms for primary advanced ovarian cancer, including randomized controlled trials and comparative studies in both Chinese and English (up to date 15 August 2022). Outcomes include overall survival, progression-free survival and adverse events. The data were pooled and reported as hazard ratio (HRs) with 95% confidence intervals. The Newcastle-Ottawa Scales were used to assess the risk of bias in the included comparative study. The Cochrane Collaboration's Risk of Bias Tool was used for randomized controlled trials.ResultsIn total, 32 studies, including 6347 patients and 8 different platinum-based chemotherapy regimens, were included in this network meta-analysis. Our analysis results showed that HIPEC2 (carboplatin with area under the curve 10) exhibited a statistically significant OS benefit compared to IV, weekly dose-dense chemotherapy and HIPEC1 (cisplatin with 75/100 mg/m2). Intraperitoneal plus intravenous chemotherapy was associated with a statistically significantly better likelihood of overall survival compared to IV. For progression-free survival, our statistical results only suggest a better progression-free survival in ovarian cancer patients treated with HIPEC1 compared with weekly dose-dense chemotherapy. No evidence of difference was observed between the other comparison groups. Compared with the non-HIPEC group, HIPEC may had a higher incidence of electrolyte disturbances (≥grade 3).ConclusionOur statistical analysis suggests that the groups receiving HIPEC2 had a better OS than the groups receiving IV, weekly dose-dense chemotherapy and HIPEC1. For PFS, our analysis only showed HIPEC1 is better than IV. Moreover, HIPEC may lead to a higher incidence of electrolyte disturbances (≥grade 3). HIPEC therapy for advanced ovarian cancer is currently controversial.
