Intraperitoneal chemotherapy after interval debulking surgery for advanced-stage ovarian cancer: Feasibility and outcomes at a comprehensive cancer center.

ABSTRACT:

Objectives

Intraperitoneal (IP)-based chemotherapy following primary debulking surgery (PDS), although associated with substantial toxicity, is supported by a strong evidence base. We sought to determine feasibility and outcomes of IP chemotherapy after interval debulking surgery (IDS) among patients deemed ineligible for PDS.

Methods

We identified all patients with high-grade, stage III/IV ovarian cancer treated at our institution with neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) followed by IDS and postoperative chemotherapy from 1/2008-5/2013. IP and intravenous (IV) regimens were defined; demographic and clinical data were analyzed using appropriate statistics.

Results

Of 128 evaluable patients, 118 (92%) achieved ≤1cm residual disease at IDS and 74 (58%) achieved a complete gross resection (CGR). An IP port was placed in 54/128 patients (42%), with 89% port utilization. Forty-eight (38%) of 128 patients received IP chemotherapy, 17 (13%) weekly IV paclitaxel/q3week carboplatin, and 63 (49%) q3week IV carboplatin/paclitaxel. Patients completed a median of 3 IP cycles (range, 2-6), with 3 (5.5%) of 54 ports removed due to complications. Overall survival (OS) for patients with a CGR treated with IP and weekly IV chemotherapy was 53.2months (range, 24.7-NE), and 44.2months (range, 30.2-NE) with any visible residual disease (p<0.001). Median OS was 53.2months (range, 44.5-NE) for IP-, not reached for weekly IV-, and 34.2months (range, 27.5-49.8) for q3week IV-treated patients (p=0.1).

Conclusions

Patients administered IP after IDS had a high rate of successful port utilization, with few regimen switches. Oncologic outcomes were optimal in patients with a CGR at IDS, regardless of chemotherapy used.

Project description:ImportanceHyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) followed by interval cytoreductive surgery (ICS) has shown survival benefits for patients with advanced-stage ovarian cancer. However, there is still a lack of consensus regarding the integration of HIPEC into clinical practice.ObjectiveTo evaluate the safety and effectiveness of ICS with HIPEC compared with ICS alone in clinical practice for patients with advanced-stage ovarian cancer.Design, setting, and participantsThis prospective, multicenter, comparative effectiveness cohort study enrolled 205 patients with stage III or IV ovarian cancer who had received at least 3 cycles of neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by ICS with HIPEC or ICS without HIPEC at 7 Korean Gynecologic Oncology Group institutions between September 1, 2017, and April 22, 2022. Nine patients were excluded because they did not meet the inclusion criteria.ExposuresNeoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by ICS with HIPEC or ICS without HIPEC.Main outcomes and measuresThe primary end point was progression-free survival (PFS). Overall survival (OS) and the safety profile were the key secondary end points.ResultsThis study included 196 patients (median age, 58.0 years [range, 38-82 years]), of whom 109 underwent ICS with HIPEC and 87 underwent ICS without HIPEC. The median duration of follow-up was 28.2 months (range, 3.5-58.6 months). Disease recurrence occurred in 128 patients (65.3%), and 30 patients (15.3%) died. Interval cytoreductive surgery with HIPEC was associated with a significant improvement in median PFS compared with ICS without HIPEC (22.9 months [95% CI, 3.5-58.6 months] vs 14.2 months [95% CI, 4.0-56.2 months]; P = .005) and median OS (not reached [95% CI, 3.5 months to not reached] vs 53.0 [95% CI, 4.6-56.2 months]; P = .002). The frequency of grade 3 or 4 postoperative complications was similar in both groups (ICS with HIPEC, 3 of 109 [2.8%] vs ICS without HIPEC, 3 of 87 [3.4%]; P > .99). Among patients with recurrence, the frequency of peritoneal recurrence was lower in the ICS with HIPEC group than in the ICS without HIPEC group (21 of 64 [32.8%] vs 41 of 64 [64.1%]; P = .001).Conclusions and relevanceThis study suggests that ICS in conjunction with HIPEC was associated with longer PFS and OS than ICS without HIPEC for patients with advanced-stage ovarian cancer and was not associated with higher rates of postoperative complications. The lower rate of peritoneal recurrence after HIPEC may be associated with improved OS.

Project description:IntroductionDelays from primary surgery to chemotherapy are associated with worse survival in ovarian cancer, however the impact of delays from neoadjuvant chemotherapy to interval debulking surgery is unknown. We sought to evaluate the association of delays from neoadjuvant chemotherapy to interval debulking with survival.MethodsPatients with a diagnosis of stage III/IV ovarian cancer receiving neoadjuvant chemotherapy from July 2015 to December 2017 were included in our analysis. Delays from neoadjuvant chemotherapy to interval debulking were defined as time from last preoperative carboplatin to interval debulking >6 weeks. Fisher's exact/Wilcoxon rank sum tests were used to compare clinical characteristics. The Kaplan-Meier method, log-rank test, and multivariate Cox Proportional-Hazards models were used to estimate progression-free and overall survival and examine differences by delay groups, adjusting for covariates.ResultsOf the 224 women, 159 (71%) underwent interval debulking and 34 (21%) of these experienced delays from neoadjuvant chemotherapy to interval debulking. These women were older (median 68 vs 65 years, P=0.05) and received more preoperative chemotherapy cycles (median 6 vs 4, P=0.003). Delays from neoadjuvant chemotherapy to interval debulking were associated with worse overall survival (HR 2.4 95% CI 1.2 to 4.8, P=0.01), however survival was not significantly shortened after adjusting for age, stage, and complete gross resection, HR 1.66 95% CI 0.8 to 3.4, P=0.17. Delays from neoadjuvant chemotherapy to interval debulking were not associated with worse progression-free survival (HR 1.55 95% CI 0.97 to 2.5, P=0.062). Increase in number of preoperative cycles (P=0.005) and lack of complete gross resection (P<0.001) were the only variables predictive of worse progression-free survival.DiscussionDelays from neoadjuvant chemotherapy to interval debulking were not associated with worse overall survival after adjustment for age, stage, and complete gross resection.
