The Safety and Effectiveness of Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy Combined With Intravenous Chemotherapy for Peritoneal Metastatic Pancreatic Cancer, a Phase II Clinical Trial

April 19, 2025 updated by: Shanghai Zhongshan Hospital

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy combined with intravenous chemotherapy in peritoneal metastatic pancreatic cancer. The main question it aims to answer are:

(1) Does this combined approach increase 1-year survival rates? and (2) What is the safety profile of this treatment regimen?

Participants will:

undergo baseline imaging and surgical exploration to confirm peritoneal metastasis, receive two cycles of intraperitoneal cisplatin HIPEC (70mg/m²) postoperatively, followed by systemic AG chemotherapy (nab-paclitaxel plus gemcitabine), with treatment adjustments based on regular imaging assessments and multidisciplinary team (MDT) recommendations.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

  • Adult

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description

1-year Overall Survival (OS) Rate
Time Frame: From enrollment to 12 months post-treatment initiation
The proportion of patients alive at 12 months after initiation of the combined HIPEC and systemic AG chemotherapy treatment, analyzed by Kaplan-Meier method.
From enrollment to 12 months post-treatment initiation

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure

Time from treatment initiation to radiographic disease progression (per RECIST 1.1) or death from any cause, whichever occurs first, assessed by blinded independent central review (BICR).
From enrollment until first documented progression or death (up to 24 months)
Objective Response Rate (ORR)
Time Frame: From enrollment until end of treatment (up to 12 months)
