[PMID: 37190310 DOI: 10.3390/cancers15082383] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/08/2023] [Revised: 04/13/2023] [Accepted: 04/18/2023] [Indexed: 05/17/2023] Open
Abstract
Peritoneal metastasis, also known as peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC), is a refractory cancer that is typically resistant to conventional therapies. The typical treatment for PC is a combination of cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC). Recently, research in this area has seen significant advances, particularly in immunotherapy as an alternative therapy for PC, which is very encouraging. Catumaxomab is a trifunctional antibody intraperitoneal (IP) immunotherapy authorized in Europe that can be used to diminish malignant ascites by targeting EpCAM. Intraperitoneal (IP) immunotherapy breaks immunological tolerance to treat peritoneal illness. Increasing T-cell responses and vaccination against tumor-associated antigens are two methods of treatment. CAR-T cells, vaccine-based therapeutics, dendritic cells (DCs) in combination with pro-inflammatory cytokines and NKs, adoptive cell transfer, and immune checkpoint inhibitors are promising treatments for PC. Carcinoembryonic antigen-expressing tumors are suppressed by IP administration of CAR-T cells. This reaction was strengthened by anti-PD-L1 or anti-Gr1. When paired with CD137 co-stimulatory signaling, CAR-T cells for folate receptor cancers made it easier for T-cell tumors to find their way to and stay alive in the body.

Abstract
Peritoneal metastases from gastric cancer (PM-GC) have a detrimental prognostic impact on survival and there is a lack of consensus regarding treatment. Cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) may offer a chance for prolonged survival as compared to standard chemotherapy. This study aims to present our experience in the management of GC with CRS and HIPEC. This is a single-centre retrospective study. Patients were divided into two groups: patients with GC at high risk for developing PM-GC (adjuvant HIPEC group) and patients with PM-GC or positive peritoneal cytology (therapeutic CRS and HIPEC group). Overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) were considered as outcome measures. A total of 41 patients with a GC primary received surgery and HIPEC: 14 patients (34.1%) were in the adjuvant HIPEC group, while 27 patients (65.9%) were in the therapeutic CRS and HIPEC group. In the adjuvant HIPEC group, the 1- and 3-year OS were 85.7% and 71.4%, while 1- and 3-year DFS were 71.4% and 64.3%, respectively. In the therapeutic CRS and HIPEC group, OS was 60.3% and 35.1% at 1 and 3 years, whereas 1- and 3-year DFS were 38% and 32.6%, respectively. Univariate survival analysis of patients in the therapeutic CRS and HIPEC group showed that the presence of lymph node metastasis and signet ring cell histology predicted worse OS, while PCI > 12 and lymph node metastasis were associated with decreased DFS. Treatment of highly selected patients with GC at high risk of peritoneal recurrence or established PM with CRS and HIPEC showed satisfactory results in terms of OS and DFS.

Abstract
Although gastric cancer with para-aortic lymph node (PAN) metastasis is commonly regarded as unresectable, surgeons have explored the optimal treatment for patients with PAN metastases limited to No.16a2/b1 in the past few decades. Preoperative systemic therapy combined with D2 gastrectomy plus PAN dissection may improve the prognosis of these patients. In this multicenter phase II trial, 29 gastric cancer patients with PAN metastasis limited to No.16a2/b1 will receive preoperative treatment with nab-paclitaxel, oxaliplatin, S-1 (nab-POS: nab-paclitaxel, oxaliplatin, S-1) and sintilimab followed by D2 gastrectomy plus PAN dissection; and postoperative treatment with oral S-1, intravenous sintilimab and intraperitoneal paclitaxel. The end points for the study are 3-year overall survival, 3-year disease-free survival, pathological response rate, incidence of postoperative complications and adverse events.

Abstract
Background To compare the prognosis of first-line systemic chemotherapy of AS (Albumin-bound paclitaxel and S-1) versus SOX (S-1 and oxaliplatin) regimen in Chinese gastric cancer patients with peritoneal metastasis. Methods This was a real-world study of gastric cancer patients with peritoneal metastasis who have been treated with AS or SOX regimen as first-line chemotherapy. Patients were matched by the method of propensity score matching (PSM). The primary and secondary endpoints were overall survival (OS) and progress-free survival (PFS). Results A total of 108 gastric cancer patients with peritoneal metastasis were enrolled after PSM analysis. There was no significant difference between AS and SOX regimen based on gender, age, ascites, treatment cycles, gastric cancer resection, received checkpoint inhibitors, and HER-2 expression after PSM analysis. The median OS (14.13 vs. 11.17 months, p = 0.0356) and median PFS (10.30 vs. 6.70 months, p = 0.0003) of patients who received AS regimen were longer than those treated by SOX regimen as first-line systemic chemotherapy. In sub-group analysis, the median OS and median PFS were longer for patients in AS regimen than SOX regimen in Lauren diffuse type. The occurrence of toxicity between the two groups was shown no significant difference. Conclusions The results verified that AS regimen was more effective than SOX chemotherapy in gastric cancer patients with peritoneal metastasis, especially in Lauren diffuse type.

Cancers (Basel) 2022; 14:cancers14092334. [PMID: 35565463 PMCID: PMC9103395 DOI: 10.3390/cancers14092334] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/17/2022] [Revised: 05/05/2022] [Accepted: 05/06/2022] [Indexed: 02/01/2023] Open
Abstract
Background: Peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC) is the most common form of metastasis in gastric cancer (GC) and is related with a poor prognosis. Several treatment modalities including systemic chemotherapy and intraperitoneal chemotherapy have been studied and adopted in treatment of GC patients with PC. Nevertheless, few studies have reported the comparison of the oncologic outcomes between minimally invasive surgery (MIS) with intraperitoneal (IP) chemotherapy and conventional chemotherapy for GC with PC. Methods: We retrospectively reviewed the clinical records of 74 patients who had been diagnosed as GC with PC via either intra-abdominal exploration or abdominopelvic computed tomography between January 2011 and April 2021. After performing propensity score-matching for this retrospective data, we compared the outcomes of 26 patients who underwent MIS followed by IP combined systemic chemotherapy (MIS-IP group) and 26 patients who underwent systemic chemotherapy only (SC-only group). Results: The 2-year progression free survival rate of the MIS-IP group was significantly higher than the SC-only groups (36.4% and 10.5%, respectively; p = 0.010). In multivariate analysis to detect relevant factors on PFS, IP chemotherapy (HR 0.213; p < 0.001), Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status (HR 3.689; p = 0.002), and the amount of ascites (p = 0.011) were significant prognostic factors. Conclusions: This study demonstrated the therapeutic potential of MIS conjoined IP plus systemic chemotherapy for GC patients with PC. MIS conjoined by IP plus systemic chemotherapy can be adopted as a treatment option to reboot the role of IP chemotherapy in GC patients with PC.

Abstract
Although recent advances in systemic chemotherapy have improved the clinical outcomes of gastric cancer patients with peritoneal metastasis, the peritoneum still represents a common site of treatment failure and disease recurrence. Neoadjuvant intraperitoneal-systemic chemotherapy has been acknowledged as a more aggressive treatment for gastric cancer patients with peritoneal metastasis. In this multicenter phase III randomized controlled trial, 238 patients will be randomly separated into two groups in a 2:1 ratio after laparoscopic exploration. The experimental arm will receive the proposed neoadjuvant intraperitoneal-systemic chemotherapy regimen, whereas the control group will receive a Paclitaxel + S-1 (PS) chemotherapy regimen. The endpoints for the study are overall survival, response rate, gastrectomy radicality rate, progression-free survival and adverse events.

Anoikis resistant gastric cancer cells promote angiogenesis and peritoneal metastasis through C/EBPβ-mediated PDGFB autocrine and paracrine signaling. Oncogene 2021; 40:5764-5779. [PMID: 34341514 DOI: 10.1038/s41388-021-01988-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 39] [Impact Index Per Article: 13.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/25/2021] [Revised: 07/20/2021] [Accepted: 07/26/2021] [Indexed: 11/09/2022]
Abstract
Anoikis is a type of programmed cell death induced by loss of anchorage to the extracellular matrix (ECM). Anoikis resistance (AR) is crucial for the survival of metastatic cancer cells in blood, lymphatic circulation and distant organs. Compared to ordinary cancer cells, anoikis resistant cancer cells undergo various cellular and molecular alterations, probably characterizing the cells with unique features not limited to anoikis resistance. However, the molecular mechanisms connecting anoikis resistance to other metastatic properties are still poorly understood. Here, the biological interaction between anoikis resistance and angiogenesis as well as their involvement into peritoneal metastasis of gastric cancer (GC) were investigated in vitro and in vivo. The prognostic value of key components involved in this interaction was evaluated in the GC cohort. Compared to ordinary GC cells, GCAR cells exhibited stronger metastatic and pro-angiogenic traits corresponding to elevated PDGFB secretion. Mechanistically, transcription factor C/EBPβ facilitated PDGFB transcription by directly binding to and interacting with PDGFB promoter elements, subsequently increasing PDGFB secretion. Secreted PDGFB promoted the survival of detached GC cells through a C/EBPβ-dependent self-feedback loop. Moreover, secreted PDGFB promoted angiogenesis in metastases via activation of the MAPK/ERK signaling pathway in vascular endothelial cells. Both C/EBPβ activation level and PDGFB expression were significantly elevated in GC and correlated with metastatic progression and poor prognosis of patients with GC. Overall, interaction between GCAR cells and vascular endothelial cells promotes angiogenesis and peritoneal metastasis of GC based on C/EBPβ-mediated PDGFB autocrine and paracrine signaling. C/EBPβ-PDGFB-PDGFRβ-MAPK axis promises to be potential prognostic biomarkers and therapeutic targets for peritoneal metastasis of GC.

Ann Surg Oncol 2021; 28:4130-4137. [PMID: 33856601 DOI: 10.1245/s10434-021-09927-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/23/2021] [Accepted: 03/11/2021] [Indexed: 12/24/2022]
Abstract
Gastric cancer (GC) is a common cancer worldwide, with patients developing isolated peritoneal metastases (PM) in approximately 30% of cases. In patients with PM, prognosis is quite poor, and long-term survival is almost zero. Cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (CRS/HIPEC) has been demonstrated to be an effective treatment in many peritoneal malignancies, including appendiceal and ovarian cancers and in peritoneal mesothelioma. In this educational review, we summarize many of the seminal studies addressing the potential benefit of CRS/HIPEC for patients with gastric cancer and peritoneal metastases (GC/PM).

Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy for Peritoneal Metastases: Technical Innovations, Preclinical and Clinical Advances and Future Perspectives. BIOLOGY 2021; 10:biology10030225. [PMID: 33804167 PMCID: PMC8001167 DOI: 10.3390/biology10030225] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/07/2021] [Revised: 03/08/2021] [Accepted: 03/10/2021] [Indexed: 02/07/2023]
Abstract
(1) Background: Tumors of the peritoneal serosa are called peritoneal carcinosis. Their origin may be primary by primitive involvement of the peritoneum (peritoneal pseudomyxoma, peritoneal mesothelioma, etc.). This damage to the peritoneum can also be a consequence of the dissipation of cancers-in particular, digestive (stomach, pancreas, colorectal, appendix) and gynecological (ovaries) ones in the form of metastases. The aim of the treatment is a maximal reduction of the macroscopic disease called "cytoreduction" in combination with hyperthermic intra-abdominal chemotherapy to treat residual microscopic lesions. (2) Methods: In this narrative review, we fundamentally synthetize the evolution of this process over time and its impact on clinical applications. (3) Results: Over the last past decade, different evolutions concerning both delivery modes and conditions concerning hyperthermic intra-abdominal chemotherapy have been realized. (4) Conclusion: The final objective of these evolutions is the improvement of the global and recurrence-free survival of primary and secondary malignant peritoneal pathologies. However, more large randomized controlled trials are needed to demonstrate the efficacy of such treatments with the help of molecular biology and genetics.

Abstract
Purpose Patients with peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC) are increasingly treated with multidisciplinary combined approaches. The study aim was to assess current practice and perceptions of treatment modalities of PC. Methods Indian Society of Peritoneal Surface Malignancies (ISPSM) members were invited to complete an online survey. Current practice and perceptions of treatment modalities were assessed through 19 closed questions. Scores were assessed using a Likert scale (0: not important, 5: very important). Treatment modality satisfaction was assessed using a semantic scale (frustrated: 0, perfectly happy: 10). Participants were sent 3 reminders at 4-week intervals. Results Fifty-seven out of 182 members completed the survey (31%). Forty percent of participants had an experience of at least 10 years, and 75% stated treating less than 20 PC patients per year. Main treatment goals for patients with PC were cure (5/5) and symptom relief (4/5). Participant’s satisfaction with treatment modalities for ovarian, colorectal, and gastric PC were 6/10, 5/10, and 2/10, respectively. Hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) for ovarian (57%) and colorectal (44%) origins were considered to be useful. Clinical usefulness of chemotherapy for gastric PC was rated to be low (17%). Conclusions Current treatment modalities fall short to satisfy the needs (cure, symptom relief) of patients with PC. Alternative systemic and intraperitoneal treatment modalities should be assessed.

Abstract
Gastric cancer (GC) has a predilection to metastasize to the peritoneum, denoting a poor prognosis. Treatment strategies available for advanced GC have significantly evolved over time and can be categorized into systemic, regional, and surgical. Although systemic therapies have been the mainstay for the treatment of advanced GC, their ability in achieving long-term survival in patients with peritoneal involvement is modest at best. This article describes advances in combined modality treatment of peritoneal metastases, specifically with an emphasis on peritoneal-directed therapies.

Abstract
Driver genes conducing to peritoneal metastasis in advanced gastric cancer remain to be clarified. S100A4 is suggested to evolve in metastasis of gastrointestinal cancer, we aim to explore the role of S100A4 plays in metastasis of advanced gastric cancer and the potential mechanism. Transfection of siRNA or cDNA was applied to alter the expression of protein S100A4 and MYH9, investigation of the expression of epithelial and mesenchymal transition (EMT) associated markers was followed. Cell migration assay was used to screen the alteration of migration ability regulated by S100A4 and MYH9. IHC analysis for tissue sample microarray was performed to reveal their relationship with clinical pathological parameters and potential capacity of predicting survival. Consistent overexpression of S100A4 and MYH9 were found in peritoneal metastasis and primary site compared with adjacent normal tissue. Low expression of S100A4 led to increased epithelial markers as wells as decline of mesenchymal makers, while overexpression of S100A4 led to inverse impact. S100A4 expression was closely correlated with increased migration ability and EMT process induced by TGF-β stimulation. Interference of S100A4 led to downregulation of MYH9 and inactivation of Smad pathway through participating in EMT process, which could be reversed by overexpression of MYH9. Moreover, co-expression of S100A4 and MYH9 was identified in tissue microarray and confirmed by immunofluorescence assay. In conclusion, overexpression of S100A4 and downstream molecular MYH9 in advanced gastric cancer predicted poor prognosis; oncogene S100A4 facilitate EMT process induced by TGF-β stimulation, suggesting a potential target in management of peritoneal metastasis of gastric cancer.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The treatment of metachronous Krukenberg tumor (mKT) from gastric cancer remains unexplored. We performed a literature review to evaluate whether or not surgical treatment improves survival. METHODS A systematic review according to PRISMA guidelines was performed. Studies reporting on patients who underwent surgical treatment for mKT from gastric cancer were selected. Metachronous disease was divided as follows: confined to the ovaries, confined to the pelvis, or beyond the pelvis. Outcomes evaluated included overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS), resection rate (R0), and factors predicting survival. RESULTS 13 retrospective reports fulfilled the selection criteria (512 patients). Most of the patients presented at a premenopausal age. The median presentation interval from gastrectomy ranged from 16 to 21.4 months. Median OS ranged between 9 and 36 months. 1-year OS ranged between 52.5 and 59%, and 3-years OS between 9.8 and 36.5%. Resection margin, peritoneal seeding, and chemotherapy regimen and cycles influenced survival. CONCLUSION Surgical treatment and adjuvant chemotherapy in patients with mKT from gastric cancer seems to be associated with improved survival and is justified especially in young patients. Disease location and R0 resection should be considered when selecting patients.

Abstract
Abstract
Patients with advanced gastric cancer and positive peritoneal cytology and/or peritoneal dissemination are deemed to be incurable and to hold dismal prognosis. So far, the only treatment option for these patients has been palliative systemic (chemo)therapy. However, for the last three decades, great progress has been made in attempts to treat (potential) peritoneal dissemination by means of complete cytoreductive surgery combined with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) after preoperative systemic therapy. This review is focused on the recent achievements of this multimodal strategy. Additionally, the review stands as background for the 4th International Conference “Advances in Surgical Oncology” that was held at the Medical University of Lublin (Poland) in November 2017, and dedicated to cytoreductive surgery and HIPEC for advanced gastric cancer.

Abstract
PURPOSE Peritoneal metastasis (PM) in advanced or recurrent gastric cancer (AGC) is the most frequent cause of death from this disease. However, current treatments remain unsatisfactory. We previously conducted studies of docetaxel, cisplatin and S-1 (DCS) combination chemotherapy for AGC. The aim of this study was to investigate the benefits and tolerability of DCS in PM patients. METHODS Patients were divided into three groups: patients without PM (non-PM); PM patients without ascites, or mild to moderate ascites (None-Mod); and PM patients with massive ascites (Massive). Patients received oral S-1 (40 mg/m2 b.i.d.) on days 1-14, and intravenous cisplatin (60 mg/m2) and docetaxel (50-60 mg/m2) on day 8 every 3 weeks. Drug exposure, adverse events, tumor response, progression-free and overall survival (OS) rates were evaluated. RESULTS Of the 111 AGC patients who received DCS as first-line therapy, 37 cases had complicated PM, 15 of whom displayed massive ascites. The response rate for PM patients was 81.5%. Drug exposure and toxicities were not meaningfully different among the groups. The MSTs were also similar: 22.6 months for the non-PM, 21.7 months for the None-Mod PM, and 16.8 months for the Massive, respectively. Ten (27.0%) patients with PM achieved downstaging and underwent curative surgery, subsequently demonstrating an excellent MST of 28.0 months. An independent prognostic factor for OS, as revealed by multivariate analyses. was a good performance status. CONCLUSION DCS is feasible and efficacious for AGC with PM, especially when patients present with a good PS.

Abstract
Peritoneal metastasis occurs in more than half of patients with unresectable or recurrent gastric cancer and is associated with the worst prognosis. The associated genomic events and pathogenesis remain ambiguous. The aim of the present study was to characterize the mutation spectrum of gastric cancer with peritoneal metastasis and provide a basis for the identification of new biomarkers and treatment targets. Matched pairs of normal gastric mucosa and peritoneal tissue and matched pairs of primary tumor and peritoneal metastasis were collected from one patient for whole-exome sequencing (WES); Sanger sequencing was employed to confirm the somatic mutations. G>A and C>T mutations were the two most frequent transversions among the somatic mutations. We confirmed 48somatic mutations in the primary site and 49 in the peritoneal site. Additionally, 25 non-synonymous somatic variations (single-nucleotide variants, SNVs) and 2 somatic insertions/deletions (INDELs) were confirmed in the primary tumor, and 30 SNVs and 5 INDELs were verified in the peritoneal metastasis. Approximately 59% of the somatic mutations were shared between the primary and metastatic site. Five genes (TP53, BAI1, THSD1, ARID2, and KIAA2022) verified in our study were also mutated at a frequency greater than 5%in the COSMIC database. We also identified 9genes (ERBB4, ZNF721, NT5E, PDE10A, CA1, NUMB, NBN, ZFYVE16, and NCAM1) that were only mutated in metastasis and are expected to become treatment targets. In conclusion, we observed that the majority of the somatic mutations in the primary site persisted in metastasis, whereas several single-nucleotide polymorphisms occurred de novo at the second site.

Abstract
Gastric cancer remains frequent and one of the most lethal malignancies worldwide. In this article, we aimed to comprehensively review recent insights in the therapeutic management of gastric cancer, with focus on the surgical and perioperative management of resectable forms, and the latest advances regarding advanced diseases. Surgical improvements comprise the use of laparoscopic surgery including staging laparoscopy, a better definition of nodal dissection, and the development of hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy. The best individualized perioperative management should be assessed before curative-intent surgery for all patients and can consists in perioperative chemotherapy, adjuvant chemo-radiation therapy or adjuvant chemotherapy alone. The optimal timing and sequence of chemotherapy and radiation therapy with respect to surgery should be further explored. Patients with advanced gastric cancer have a poor prognosis. Nevertheless, they can benefit from doublet or triplet chemotherapy combination, including trastuzumab in HER2-positive patients. Upon progression, second-line therapy can be considered in patients with good performance status. Although anti-HER2 (trastuzumab) and anti-VEGFR (ramucirumab) may yield survival benefit, anti-EGFR and anti-HGFR therapies have failed to improve outcomes. Nevertheless, combination regimens containing cytotoxic drugs and targeted therapies should be further evaluated; keeping in mind that gastric cancer biology is different between Asia and the Western countries.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC) is a cancer disease with an urgent need for effective treatment. Conventional chemotherapy failed to show acceptable results. Cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic chemoperfusion (HIPEC) are only beneficial in few patients with resectable peritoneal metastasis. Immunotherapy could be attractive against PC, as all requirements for immunotherapy are available in the peritoneal cavity. AREAS COVERED This review analyzes the present literature for immunotherapy of PC. Advances from immune stimulators, radionucleotide-conjugated- and bispecific antibodies to future developments like adoptive engineered T-cells with chimeric receptors are discussed. The clinical development of catumaxomab, which was the first intraperitoneal immunotherapy to be approved for clinical treatment, is discussed. The requirements for future developments are illustrated. Expert commentary: Immunotherapy of peritoneal carcinomatosis is manageable, showing striking cancer cell killing. Improved profiles of adverse events by therapy-induced cytokine release, enhanced specific killing and optimal treatment schedules within multimodal treatment will be key factors.

Abstract
Peritoneal dissemination of tumor has high mortality and is associated with the loss of epithelial features, acquisition of motile mesenchymal morphology characteristics, and invasive properties by tumor cells. Melatonin is an endogenously produced molecule in all plant species that is known to exert antitumor activity, but to date, its underlying mechanisms and antiperitoneal metastasis efficacy is not well defined. This study determined the antiperitoneal dissemination potential of melatonin in vivo and assessed its association with the inhibition of epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) signaling mechanism by endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, which may be a major molecular mechanism of melatonin against cancer. The results demonstrate that melatonin inhibited peritoneal metastasis in vivo and activated ER stress in Cignal ERSE Reporter Assay, organelle structure in transmission electron microscopy images, calpain activity, and protein biomarkers like p-elf2α. Moreover, the overexpression of transcription factor C/EBPβ in gastric cancer interacted with NFκB and further regulates COX-2 expression. These were dissociated and downregulated by melatonin, as proven by immunofluorescence imaging, immunoprecipitation, EMSA, and ChIP assay. Melatonin or gene silencing of C/EBPβ decreased the EMT protein markers (E-cadherin, Snail, and Slug) and Wnt/beta-catenin activity by Topflash activity, and increased ER stress markers. In an animal study, the results of melatonin therapy were consistent with those of in vitro findings and attenuated systemic proangiogenesis factor production. In conclusion, C/EBPβ and NFκB inhibition by melatonin may impede both gastric tumor growth and peritoneal dissemination by inducing ER stress and inhibiting EMT.

Abstract
Peritoneal metastasis, either synchronous or metachronous, is commonly seen in gastric cancer. It is associated with a poor prognosis, with a median survival of less than one year. The outcomes are not significantly improved by the use of systemic chemotherapy. We review the relevant literature on the role of HIPEC in gastric cancer. Cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) has been used in three situations in gastric cancer. Besides its role as a definitive treatment in patients with established peritoneal metastasis (PM), it has been used as a prophylaxis against peritoneal recurrence after curative surgery and also as a palliative treatment in advanced peritoneal metastasis with intractable ascites. While prophylactic HIPEC has been shown to reduce peritoneal recurrence and improve survival in many randomised trials, palliative HIPEC can reduce the need for frequent paracentesis. Although CRS with HIPEC has shown promise in increasing the survival of selected patients with established PM from gastric cancer, larger studies are needed before this can be accepted as a standard of care.

Abstract
Gastric cancer associated peritoneal carcinomatosis (GCPC) has a poor prognosis with a median survival of less than one year. Systemic chemotherapy including targeted agents has not been found to significantly increase the survival in GCPC. Since recurrent gastric cancer remains confined to the abdominal cavity in many patients, regional therapies like aggressive cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) have been investigated for GCPC. HIPEC has been used for three indications in GC- as an adjuvant therapy after a curative surgery, HIPEC has been shown to improve survival and reduce peritoneal recurrences in many randomised trials in Asian countries; as a definitive treatment in established PC, HIPEC along with CRS is the only therapeutic modality that has resulted in long-term survival in select groups of patients; as a palliative treatment in advanced PC with intractable ascites, HIPEC has been shown to control ascites and reduce the need for frequent paracentesis. While the results of randomised trials of adjuvant HIPEC from western centres are awaited, the role of HIPEC in the treatment of GCPC is still evolving and needs larger studies before it is accepted as a standard of care.

Abstract
Krukenberg tumor is a rare metastastic tumor of the ovary, characterized by poor prognosis. In order to analyze the clinical characteristics and prognostic factors, we retrospectively investigated 128 patients who were diagnosed with Krukenberg tumor between January, 1990 and December, 2010. The median patient age was 48 years. The median overall survival (OS) of Krukenberg tumor for all patients was 16 months (95% CI: 15-19 months). The median OS among patients with Krukenberg tumors of gastric, colorectal, breast and other origins (including appendix, gallbladder, small intestine and unknown primary) was 11, 21.5, 31 and 19.5 months, respectively (P<0.0001). In the univariate analysis, synchronous metastasis, no chemotherapy, ovarian metastasis beyond the pelvis, ascites and no metastasectomy were identified as significant poor prognostic factors. The multivariate analysis suggested that synchronous metastasis (P=0.0080), pelvic invasion (P=0.0138), ascites (P<0.0001) and no metastasectomy (P=0.0060) were independent factors for predicting unfavorable OS. It was suggested that the prognosis of Krukenberg tumor is dismal and ovarian metastasectomy may prove beneficial. Adequate treatment planning is required for this group of patients.

Abstract
Advanced gastric cancer (GC) has been recognized as lethal disease when peritoneal metastases (PM) occurred. There is no standard treatment for advanced GC with PM. Until 1980s, the therapeutic arena for these patients had remained stagnant, with no therapeutic approach having shown a survival gain in GC with PM. However, cytoreductive surgery (CRS) with peritonectomy procedures and intraperitoneal chemotherapy (IPC) promising new combined therapeutic approach to achieve disease control for GC with PM. The recent publications changed the GC with PM treatment landscape by providing an evidence that CRS and IPC led to prolongation in overall survival (OS). This review will provide an overview of the evolving role of CRS and IPC in the management of advanced GC with PM in the current era.

Abstract
Background In Europe, gastric cancer remains diagnosed at advanced stage (serosal and/or lymph node involvement). Despite curative management combining perioperative systemic chemotherapy and gastrectomy with D1-D2 lymph node dissection, 5-year survival rates of T3 and/or N + patients remain under 30%. More than 50% of recurrences are peritoneal and/or locoregional. The use of adjuvant hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy that eliminates free cancer cells that can be released into peritoneal cavity during the gastrectomy and prevents peritoneal carcinomatosis recurrences, was extensively evaluated by several randomized trials conducted in Asia. Two meta-analysis reported that adjuvant hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy significantly reduces the peritoneal recurrences and significantly improves the overall survival. As it was previously done for the evaluation of the extension of lymph node dissection, it seems very important to validate on European or caucasian patients the results observed in trials performed in Asia. Methods/design GASTRICHIP is a prospective, open, randomized multicenter phase III clinical study with two arms that aims to evaluate the effects of hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy with oxaliplatin on patients with gastric cancer involving the serosa and/or lymph node involvement and/or with positive cytology at peritoneal washing, treated with perioperative systemic chemotherapy and D1-D2 curative gastrectomy. Peroperatively, at the end of curative surgery, patients will be randomized after preoperatively written consent has been given for participation. Primary endpoint will be overall survival from the date of surgery to the date of death or to the end of follow-up (5 years). Secondary endpoint will be 3- and 5-year recurrence-free survival, site of recurrence, morbidity, and quality of life. An ancillary study will compare the incidence of positive peritoneal cytology pre- and post-gastrectomy in two arms of the study, and assess its impact on 5-year survival. The number of patients to be randomized was calculated to be 306. Trial registration EudraCT number: 2012-005748-12, ClinicalTrials.gov identifier:

Abstract
Krukenberg tumor originated from stomach in female patients is common in clinical practice, but it is still uncertain whether surgical resection of ovarian metastases could improve the outcome. Some studies suggested that a certain group of patients could benefit from the resection of ovarian metastases. However, conclusions were different between studies and there was no data to illustrate if certain molecular markers were associated with patients’ survival. In this study, we analyzed the effects of resection of ovarian metastases, and investigated prognostic factors in 133 patients with ovarian metastases originated from stomach. Furthermore, we examined the expression of some cancer stem cells (CSCs) markers or related molecules in 64 ovarian metastases specimens and analyzed the correlation between these molecules and patients’ survival. We found that the median overall survival (mOS) of all 133 patients was 16 months, and “gastrectomy” and “without ascites” were two independent prognostic factors associated with longer survival. The mOS of the patients with gastrectomy was longer than that of patients had not undergone gastrectomy (19 vs. 9 months, p = 0.048). Patients without ascites survived longer than those with ascites (mOS: 21 vs. 13 months, p = 0.008). We also found that Sox2, CD44 or CD133 positive expression in ovarian metastases were risk factors correlated with poor survival, and Sox2 expression was an independent prognostic indicator. These results suggested that ovarian metastasectomy might help to prolong the survivor of some patients with Krukenberg tumor originated from stomach. Patients without ascites, and with resected or resectable primary gastric cancer lesion could get benefit from and be potential candidate for surgical treatment. The expression of Sox2 might serve as a prognostic indicator for predicting patients’ survival and be helpful for selecting patients in future.

Abstract
Novel multidisciplinary treatment combined with neoadjuvant intraperitoneal-systemic chemotherapy protocol (NIPS) and peritonectomy was developed. Ninety-six patients were enrolled. Peritoneal wash cytology was performed before and after NIPS through a port system. Patients were treated with 60 mg/m(2) of oral S-1 for 21 days, followed by a 1-week rest. On days 1, 8, and 15, 30 mg/m(2) of Taxotere and 30 mg/m(2) of cisplatin with 500 mL of saline were introduced through the port. NIPS is done 2 cycles before surgery. Three weeks after NIPS, 82 patients were eligible to intend cytoreductive surgery (CRS) by gastrectomy + D2 dissection + periotnectomy to achieve complete cytoreduction. Sixty-eight patients showed positice cytology before NIPS, and the positive cytology results became negative in 47 (69%) patients after NIPS. Complete pathologic response on PC after NIPS was experienced in 30 (36.8%) patients. Stage migration was experienced in 12 patients (14.6%). Complete cytoreduction was achieved in 58 patients (70.7%). By the multivariate analysis, complete cytoreduction and pathologic response became a significantly good survival. However the high morbidity and mortality, stringent patient selection is important. The best indications of the therapy are patients with good pathologic response and PCI ≤ 6, which are supposed to be removed completely by peritonectomy.

Abstract
Treatment of cancers in the abdominal cavity, such as peritoneal dissemination, is difficult, but in principle intraperitoneal administration of anticancer drugs is expected to be preferable to systemic administration. Taxane anticancer drugs are used to treat gastric cancer patients with peritoneal dissemination. They are administered as micellar preparations, Taxol and Taxotere, which consist of paclitaxel in Cremophor EL (crEL) and docetaxel in Polysorbate-80 (PS-80), respectively. In this paper we review the disposition kinetics of taxane anticancer drugs after intraperitoneal administration in peritoneal dissemination patients and animal models and also discuss the effect of the surfactant vehicle on the behavior of taxanes.

Abstract
Virally-directed fluorescence imaging has the potential to revolutionize intra-operative oncologic staging and tumor resection. Many viruses genetically engineered to specifically infect tumor cells as cancer therapy can be further modified to have a visible marker gene for cancer staging. In this chapter, we describe such a herpes simplex virus (HSV) modified to be detected by fluorescence. Other viruses so designed can be similarly used in cancer detection and staging. Replication-competent, tumor-specific HSV NV1066 expresses green fluorescent protein (GFP) in infected cancer cells. One single dose of NV1066 administered via intratumor, intracavitary, or systemic injection can spread within and across body cavities to target tumor cells while sparing normal tissue cells from infection. Tumors otherwise invisible by conventional laparoscopy appear green with the use of an endoscope equipped with a fluorescent filter. Furthermore, with GFP expression easily visualized by stereomicroscopy, microscopic, and pathologic analysis is significantly enhanced. This chapter addresses NV1066-directed visualization of peritoneal, pleural, and lymphatic metastases. This chapter also provides protocols for the production of tumor models in various body cavities in rodents.

Abstract
This study evaluated the efficacy and safety of docetaxel, cisplatin and 5-fluorouracil/leucovorin as neoadjuvant chemotherapy before surgery (NCT group; n = 29) compared with postoperative chemotherapy alone (non-NCT group; n = 26) in the treatment of Borrmann type IV gastric carcinoma. Primary tumour response rate, surgical parameters, incised-edge residue rate, lymphatic metastasis status and side-effects were evaluated. The overall response rate was 58.6% in the NCT group, which included three (10.3%) patients in complete remission and 14 (48.3%) patients in partial remission. The postoperative pathological complete response rate was 6.9% (two patients) in the NCT group. NCT was associated with a significant increase in the radical resection rate and a significant decrease in the rate of incised-edge residues, compared with postoperative chemotherapy alone. Side-effects due to NCT were minimal and resolved with appropriate treatment. There were no chemotherapy-related deaths in either group. In conclusion, docetaxel, cisplatin and 5-fluorouracil/leucovorin was an effective and well-tolerated NCT regimen for Borrmann type IV gastric cancer.

Abstract
Peritoneal carcinomatosis in gastric cancer is associated with a dismal prognosis. Systemic chemotherapy is not effective because of the existence of a blood-peritoneal barrier. Cytoreductive surgery and intraperitoneal chemotherapy can improve survival and quality of life in selected patients. Patient selection for this multimodal approach is one of the most critical issues, and calls for interdisciplinary evaluation by radiologists, medical and surgical oncologists, and anaesthetists. This article sets forth criteria for selection of gastric cancer patients suffering from peritoneal carcinomatosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This work was to evaluate cytoreductive surgery (CRS) plus hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) for advanced gastric cancer (GC). METHODS CRS and HIPEC were performed on 28 GC patients with peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC) and/or malignant ascites, with survival and perioperative safety as study endpoints. RESULTS A total of 30 CRS and HIPEC procedures were performed. Cytoreduction scores ratings (CCR) were CCR-0 in 11 (39.2%), CCR-1 in 6 (21.4%), CCR-2 in 8 (28.8%), and CCR-3 in 3 (10.6%) cases. The 6-, 12-, 18-, and 24-month survival rates were 75%, 50%, 43%, and 43%, respectively. The median survivals of patients with PCI <or=20 and high PCI >20 were 27.7 months (95% CI 15.2-40.3 months) and 6.4 months (95% CI 3.8-8.9 months) (P = 0.000). The estimated median survival for patients with CCR-0, CCR-1, and CCR-2 and 3 were 43.4 months (95% CI, 26.9-59.9 months), 9.5 months (95% CI 6.4-12.6 months), and 7.5 months (95% CI 3.0-13.6 months) (P = 0.001, CCR0 vs. CCR1-3). No perioperative death but 1 (3.6%) serious adverse event occurred. CONCLUSIONS CRS plus HIPEC could offer survival advantage for selected GC patients with PC and/or ascites, with acceptable safety profile.

Abstract
There is no standard treatment for peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC) from gastric cancer. A novel multidisciplinary treatment combining bidirectional chemotherapy [neoadjuvant intraperitoneal-systemic chemotherapy protocol (NIPS)], peritonectomy, hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemoperfusion (HIPEC) and early postoperative intraperitoneal chemotherapy has been developed. In this article, we assess the indications, safety and efficacy of this treatment, review the relevant studies and introduce our experiences. The aims of NIPS are stage reduction, the eradication of peritoneal free cancer cells, and an increased incidence of complete cytoreduction (CC-0) for PC. A complete response after NIPS was obtained in 15 (50%) out of 30 patients with PC. Thus, a significantly high incidence of CC-0 can be obtained in patients with a peritoneal cancer index (PCI) ≤ 6. Using a multivariate analysis to examine the survival benefit, CC-0 and NIPS are identified as significant indicators of a good outcome. However, the high morbidity and mortality rates associated with peritonectomy and perioperative chemotherapy make stringent patient selection important. The best indications for multidisciplinary therapy are localized PC (PCI ≤ 6) from resectable gastric cancer that can be completely removed during a peritonectomy. NIPS and complete cytoreduction are essential treatment modalities for improving the survival of patients with PC from gastric cancer.

Abstract
PURPOSE In locally advanced gastric carcinomas that have invaded adjacent organs, the prognosis is poor. When combined resections are performed in T4 gastric cancers, a high morbidity rate is reported and it is inconclusive as to whether or not there is an improvement in the survival rate. We investigated surgical outcomes and analysed the prognostic factors for T4 gastric cancers. PATIENTS AND METHODS Between January 1992 and December 2000, 132 patients underwent surgery for T4 gastric cancer; they were divided into three groups: combined resections in group I, gastrectomy alone in group II, and resections not performed but palliative gastrojejunostomy or intraperitoneal chemotherapy in group III. Surgical outcomes and clinicopathologic factors were compared and prognostic factors were evaluated. RESULTS Among the three groups, statistically significantly different factors were tumour location, Borrmann type, tumour size, distant metastasis and peritoneal metastasis. The most commonly resected organ was the transverse colon, and 14 post-operative morbidities developed. In the multivariate analysis, the treatment group and curability were proved to be independent prognostic factors. CONCLUSION In patients with T4 gastric carcinoma, an aggressive surgical approach can be beneficial when curative resection is performed. If curative resection is not possible, palliative resection can be performed for a better quality of life.

Abstract
There is no standard treatment for peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC) from gastric cancer. New bidirectional chemotherapy (neoadjuvant intraperitoneal-systemic chemotherapy protocol (NIPS)) was developed. The aim of the present study was to assess the safety and efficacy of NIPS and to show the selection for cytoreductive surgery on PC from gastric cancer. Seventy-nine patients with PC from gastric cancer were treated with NIPS. A peritoneal port system was introduced into the abdominal cavity. The peritoneal wash cytological examination through a port was done before and after NIPS. The patients were treated with oral TS-1 twice a daily for 21 days, followed by a 1-week rest. On day 1, 8, and 15 from the start of oral TS-1 administration, 30 mg/m(2) of Docetaxel and 30 mg/m(2) of cisplatinum with 500 ml of saline were introduced into the peritoneal cavity through the port. A median course of oral TS-1 was 2.1 course and a median time of IP chemoterapy was 5.8. Peritoneal free cancer cells (PFCCs) had been detected in 65 (82.2%) patients before NIPS, and the positive cytology changed to be negative in 41 (63.0%) patients after NIPS. After NIPS, 41 patients underwent laparotomy, and complete cytoreduction was done in 32 (78%) patients. Complete cytoreduction was done in 27 (51.9%) of 52 patients with negative cytology but in only 4 (14.8%) of 27 patients with positive cytology (P < 0.001). Patients with negative cytology after NIPS survived significantly longer than those with positive cytology. The adverse effects after NIPS were mild and there was no treatment-related deaths. The grade 3/4 hematological adverse effects were found in 2 (2.6%) patients. Grade 3 renal toxicity and port site infection was found in three patients, respectively. NIPS using a port system is a safe and effective treatment for PC. Peritoneal wash cytology through a port system is a good indicator to select the patients to perform cytoreductive surgery.

Abstract
Following international consensus, HIPEC should be the acronym used in the scientific literature to refer to the hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy. Several modalities of perfusion are used to deliver HIPEC: open abdominal technique (Coliseum), closed abdominal technique, peritoneal cavity expander, semi-opened abdominal technique. There is no sufficient evidence in literature confirming the superiority of one technique over the others in terms of outcome, morbidity and safety to the personnel of the operating theatre. Each option has its own operational advantages and disadvantages and future prospective studies must be conducted to establish which one is the best alternative. Today, the best technique is the one which is routinely used and improved into each specialized institution involved in the management of peritoneal surface malignancy.

Abstract
AIM: To compare the pharmacokinetics and tissue distribution of 5-fluorouracil administered intraperitoneally with two isotonic carrier solutions: HAES-steri (neotype 6% hydroxyethyl starch), a novel carrier solution with middle molecular weight and physiologic saline (0.9% sodium chloride solution), a traditional carrier solution for intraperitoneal chemotherapy, in rats.
METHODS: A total of 60 Sprague Dawley rats were randomized into groups according to the carrier solution administered. Each group was further randomized according to the intraperitoneal dwell period (1, 3, 6, 12, 18 and 24 h). At the end of the procedure the rats were killed, the peritoneal fluid was withdrawn completely and quantitated. Drug concentrations in peritoneal fluid, plasma, and tissues were determined by high-performance liquid chromatography.
RESULTS: The mean volumes remaining in the peritoneal cavity were significantly higher with HAES-steri than those with physiologic saline at 1, 6, 12, 18, and 24 h (P = 0.047, 0.009, 0.005, 0.005 and 0.005 respectively, the percentages of remaining peritoneal fluid volume were 89.9 ± 5.6 vs 83.4 ± 4.9, 79.9 ± 2.8 vs 56.2 ± 15.7, 46.8 ± 5.5 vs 24.7 ± 9.7, 23.0 ± 2.8 vs 0.0 ± 0.0 and 4.2 ± 1.7 vs 0.0 ± 0.0 respectively). Mean concentrations in peritoneal fluid were significantly higher with HAES-steri than those with physiologic saline at 3, 12 and 18 h (P = 0.009, 0.009 and 0.005 respectively, the concentrations were 139.2768 ± 28.2317 mg/L vs mg/L, 11.5427 ± 3.0976 mg/L vs 0.0000 ± 0.0000 mg/L and 4.7724 ± 1.0936 mg/L vs 0.0000 ± 0.0000 mg/L respectively). Mean plasma 5-fluorouracil concentrations in portal vein were significantly higher with HAES-steri at 3, 12, 18 and 24 h (P = 0.009, 0.034, 0.005 and 0.019 respectively, the concentrations were 3.3572 ± 0.8128 mg/L vs 0.8794 ± 0.2394 mg/L, 0.6203 ± 0.9935 mg/L vs 0.0112 ± 0.0250 mg/L, 0.3725 ± 0.3871 mg/L vs 0.0000 ± 0.0000 mg/L, and 0.2469 ± 0.1457 mg/L vs 0.0000 ± 0.0000 mg/L respectively), but significantly lower at 1 h (P = 0.009, the concentrations were 4.1957 ± 0.6952 mg/L vs 7.7406 ± 1.2377 mg/L). There were no significant differences in the plasma 5-fluorouracil in inferior caval vein at each time-point. 5-fluorouracil concentrations were significantly greater with HAES-steri at 18 h in gastric tissue (P = 0.016, the concentrations were 0.9486 ± 0.8173 mg/L vs 030392 ± 0.0316 mg/L), at 18 h in colon (P = 0.009, the concentrations were 0.1730 ± 0.0446 mg/L vs 0.0626 ± 0.0425 mg/L), at 3, 6, 12 and 24 h in liver (P = 0.009, 0.013, 0.034 and 0.013 respectively, the concentrations were 0.6472685 ± 0.5256 mg/L vs 0.1554 ± 0.1043mg/L, 0.8606826 ± 0.7155 mg/L vs 0.0014 ± 0.0029 mg/L, 0.0445 ± 0.0330 mg/L vs 0.0797 ± 0.1005 mg/L and 0.0863 ± 0.0399 mg/L vs 0.0034 ± 0.0075 mg/L respectively) and at 18 h in lung (P = 0.009, the concentrations were 0.0886 ± 0.0668 mg/L vs 0.0094 ± 0.0210 mg/L). There were no differences in 5-fluorouracil concentrations in renal tissue at each time-point.
CONCLUSION: The use of intraperitoneal 5-fluoro-uracil with HAES-Steri carrier solution provides a pharmacokinetic advantage for a local-regional killing of residual tumor cells and improve the accumulated penetrability of 5-fluorouracil with decreased systemic toxicity. Further clinical feasibility studies on the use of HAES-steri as carrier solution for intraperitoneal chemotherapy with 5-fluorouracil are warranted.

Blocking on the CXCR4/mTOR signalling pathway induces the anti-metastatic properties and autophagic cell death in peritoneal disseminated gastric cancer cells. Eur J Cancer 2008; 44:1022-9.

Abstract
Patients with advanced gastric carcinoma, especially peritoneal dissemination, have a poor prognosis even after any treatment. Chemokines are now known to play an important role in cancer growth and metastasis. We recently reported that the chemokine CXCL12 plays an important role in the development of peritoneal carcinomatosis from gastric carcinoma. In this study, we investigated signalling pathway involved in the peritoneal carcinomatosis induced by chemokine CXCL12. Akt was rapidly and strongly phosphorylated by chemokine CXCL12. CXCL12 also induced the activation of p70S6K (S6K) and eukaryotic initiation factor 4E binding protein 1 (4E-BP1) included in mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) pathways which are located downstream of Akt, resulting in enhancements of metastatic properties such as MMP production, cell migration and cell growth in peritoneal disseminated gastric cancer, NUGC4 cells. Furthermore, mTOR inhibitor rapamycin not only drastically inhibited migration and MMP production, but also induced type II programmed cell death, autophagic cell death. In the present study, we have shown for the first time that the mTOR pathway plays a central role in the development of peritoneal carcinomatosis, and blocking this pathway induces autophagic cell death in disseminated gastric cancer. Therefore, blocking on the CXCR4/mTOR signalling pathway may be useful for the future development of a more effective therapeutic strategy for gastric cancer involved in peritoneal dissemination.

Abstract
This article is to offer a concise review on the use of cytoreductive surgery (CRS) plus intraperitoneal hyperthermic chemotherapy (IPHC) for the treatment of peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC). Traditionally, PC was treated with systemic chemotherapy alone with very poor response and a median survival of less than 6 mo. With the establishment of several phase II studies, a new trend has been developed toward the use of CRS plus IPHC as a standard method for treating selected patients with PC, in whom sufficient cytoreduction could be achieved. In spite of the need for more high quality phase III studies, there is now a consensus among many surgical oncology experts throughout the world about the use of this new treatment strategy as standard care for colorectal cancer patients with PC. This review summarizes the current status and possible progress in future.

Abstract
The surgeon's role in the treatment of malignant peritoneal disease has expanded over time, stemming from a better understanding of tumor biology. For the majority of patients, carcinomatosis is a terminal process with surgical intervention being reserved for palliation of bowel obstruction or symptomatic ascites. However, for select patients with favorable tumor biologies, aggressive surgical approaches may result in long-term survival. This review describes the patterns of peritoneal tumor dissemination, surgical palliation of malignant bowel obstruction or ascites, and the principles, indications, toxicities, and overall results of cytoreductive surgery with intraperitoneal hyperthermic chemotherapy. On the other hand, long-term survival is rarely expected for malignant pleural disease unless the causal tumor is highly responsive to systemic chemotherapy. There are controversies and considerable geographic variations in the management of malignant pleural effusions. However, less invasive ambulatory palliative treatments for patients so afflicted are gaining popularity.
