Summary

This pilot study looked at whether repeated FDG-PET/CT scans can help select patients and evaluate how well a special chemotherapy (PIPAC) works for cancer that has spread to the lining of the abdomen. 34 patients with various abdominal cancers were included. The goal was to see if the scans could detect metabolic changes in tumors after treatment.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
FDG-PET/CT scan
What this could lead to
If successful, this could show that PET scans are a useful tool to guide treatment decisions for people with abdominal cancer spread.
What could go wrong
This is a very small pilot study with only 34 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. It focuses on imaging, not on improving survival or symptoms.
