Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary Objective: -Estimate of overall survival (OS)in the two trial arms. -Evaluation of the morbidity and mortality in the two trial arms -Evaluation of the second recurrence pattern in the two trial arms -Stratification of survival data in relation to the appearance of first recurrence between 6 and 12 months compared to its appearance after 12 months. -Stratification of survival data in relation to the value of PCI (Peritoneal Cancer Index) and to the residual disease (CC-0 vs CC-1) -Evaluation of quality of life (QOL) before surgery, 30 days after surgery, during chemotherapy and during follow-up (as shown in the temporal trial schedule), with EORTC QLQ-C30 and QLQ OV28 questionnaires. -Estimate of patients who will be able to start postoperative chemotherapy within 5 weeks from surgery made in the two trial arms;Primary end point(s): -Estimate of progression free interval (PFI) in the two trial arms.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: na;Main Objective: To assess disease progression-free interval after surgery combined with intraperitoneal chemo-hyperthermia with respect to the exclusive secondary cytoreduction. | — |
