Summary

This study tests a two-step treatment for adrenocortical carcinoma that has spread inside the abdomen. First, surgeons remove all visible tumors. Then, heated chemotherapy (cisplatin) is pumped directly into the belly to kill remaining cancer cells. The goal is to see if this approach delays the cancer from coming back. About 30 adults with resectable disease are being enrolled.
