Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: progression free survival;Secondary Objective: overall survival toxicity identification of prognostic factors by biologic characterization of tumor regarding the expression of tyrosine kinase receptor expression and downstream effectors validation of osteopontin and mesothelin as potential diagnostic and prognostic tool;Primary end point(s): The primary endpoint of the study is to evaluated in patients affected by diffuse malignant peritoneal mesothelioma treated by cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy the progression free survival associated with personalized adjuvant systemic chemotherapy directed on the basis of in vitro chemosensitivity assay;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: the study consists of a accrual period of 3 years and 2 years of follow-up | — |
