Hot chemo bath tested in fight against widespread abdominal cancer

NCT ID NCT01226550

Summary

This study tested a two-part treatment for advanced cancer that has spread within the abdomen. First, surgeons removed all visible tumors. Then, they washed the abdominal cavity with a heated chemotherapy solution during the same operation. The goal was to see if this combined approach was safe and effective at controlling the disease in patients with certain cancers originating in the stomach, colon, appendix, or the abdominal lining itself.
