Trial summary

Colorectal cancer is the third most common cancer in men and second in women. It represent 345'346 new cases per year in Europe and 134'349 in the United States of America. The peritoneal cavity is the second most frequent site, after liver, for colorectal cancer relapse.Peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC) is found in… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Second Line Oxaliplatin Based Chemotherapy Alone Versus Oxaliplatin Based PIPAC and Chemotherapy in Colorectal Peritoneal Carcinomatosis : A Phase II Randomize Mutli-centric Study : OPAC Study

Colorectal cancer is the third most common cancer in men and second in women. It represent 345'346 new cases per year in Europe and 134'349 in the United States of America. The peritoneal cavity is the second most frequent site, after liver, for colorectal cancer relapse.Peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC) is found in approximately 5 % of patients diagnosed with colorectal cancer and 24% of patients with synchronous metastasis at the time of diagnosis. Eight percent of colorectal cancer patient will develop PC during the course of their disease .

Currently systemic chemotherapy is the standard of care for the treatment of unresectable peritoneal carcinomatosis from colorectal cancer with a median survival rate of 16.3 months Peritoneal carcinomatosis has a poor response to systemic chemotherapy due to a weak penetration of agents into the peritoneum.

A new approach of intraperitoneal carcinomatosis is now developed: Pressurized intraperitoneal aerosol chemotherapy (PIPAC) is used to deliver intraperitoneal chemotherapy. It enhances the effect of chemotherapy because of the physical properties of aerosol and pressure.

PIPAC is a safe with a 23% morbidity and tolerated technic that is now well described.

We want to conduct a study to prove or infirm the superiority of PIPAC associated with systemic chemotherapy compare to systemic chemotherapy alone in peritoneal carcinomatosis from colorectal cancer

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing PIPAC in people with Peritoneal Carcinomatosis, run by Sleiman Marwan-Julien.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 2 Feb 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Marwan-Julien Sleiman (0041795533197, marwan.sleiman@hcuge.ch), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Progression free survival (time frame: 8 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 2 Feb 2021.
