| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: The main objective of the study is to determine the effectiveness of PIPAC technique in patients with peritoneal metastases, who are not eligible for curative surgical resection.;Secondary Objective: Secondary aims are to determine - the feasibility of the study treatment - the safety of the PIPAC technique - the antineoplastic activity - preliminary data on progression free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) - the quality of life (HRQoL);Primary end point(s): The primary endpoint is the histological response to treatment, assessed using the peritoneal regression grading system (PRGS) score. Response to treatment will be assessed comparing the PRGS score at each PIPAC procedure respect to the PRGS score at the first PIPAC procedure (baseline). Patients, who did not receive at least three procedures, will be considered non responders. The PRGS score distinguishes between four grades of tumor regression, PRGS 1–4. PRGS 1 (complete response) is defined as no tumor cells present; PRGS 2 (major response) is regressive changes predominant over tumor cells; PRGS 3 (minor response) is predominance of tumor cells but regressive changes present, and PRGS 4 (no response) is no regressive changes present. At least four peritoneal punch biopsies of 3 to 5mm in diameter should be taken in all four abdominal quadrants, plus a centimetric peritonectomy of not-affected peritoneum (to be used as reference). The PRGS score will be reported as the mean and the worst value of the regression grades obtained. When complete tumor response is suspected intraoperatively, a peritoneal cytology should be sampled. A histological tumor response is defined as a decrease of 0.5 in the mean PRGS score. Tumor response rate is defined as the portion of participants with a histological tumor response.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: At second and third PIPAC procedure after 6 or 8 weeks and 12 or 16 weeks after first PIPAC procedure. | — |
