Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: Cohort A: - To evaluate the efficacy of PIPAC according to the Overall Response Rate (ORR) in peritoneal carcinomatosis (CP) from colorectal, ovarian, gastric cancers and primary peritoneal tumors. Cohort B - To determine the maximum tolerated dose of oxaliplatin o cisplatin and doxorubicin by PIPAC - To evaluate safety and tolerability of oxaliplatin o cisplatin and doxorubicin by PIPAC;Secondary Objective: To evaluate the efficacy in terms of overall survival and time to progression and the safety according to the criteria of the CTCAE v. 4.0;Primary end point(s): Overall Response Rate (ORR) according to RECIST criteria (version 1.1);Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: week 10 and 17

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): The overall survival (OS); The degree of histological regression assessed by pathological review; - Measurement of clinical tumor response to therapy using FDG- Positron Emission Tomography (PET) according to PERCIST criteria (versione 1.0).; The median time to progression (TTP) according to RECIST criteria (version 1.1) after two or three cycles of PIPAC;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 18 months; week 0, 6 and 12; week 11; weeks 10,17 and follow up
