Chemo spray targets Stomach-Lining tumors in pancreatic cancer

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * Ability to understand and sign informed consent form * Age ≥18 years * Patient must have histologically confirmed pancreatic adenocarcinoma with either histologic confirmation or strong suspicion of peritoneal metastasis on cross sectional imaging * ECOG performance status ≤ 2 * Pre-treatment Laboratory Parameters: * Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) \> 1500/mm3 * Platelets \> 100,000/mm3 * Hemoglobin \> 9 g/dl * Serum total bilirubin \< 1.5 x upper limit of normal (ULN) * Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) \< 2.5 x ULN, unless patient is known to have chronic liver disease (hepatitis) in which case AST and ALT must be ≤ 5 x ULN. * Creatinine clearance (Ccr) \> 40 ml/min * No contraindications for a laparoscopy. * The peritoneal disease does not have to be measurable by RECIST 1.1 but needs to visible on cross sectional imaging or diagnostic laparoscopy. * For patients with a known history of chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection, the HBV viral load must be undetectable on suppressive therapy, if indicated. * Patients with a known history of hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection must have been treated and cured. For patients with HCV infection who are currently on treatment, they are eligible if they have an undetectable HCV viral load. * Women of childbearing potential (WOCBP) and male patients with WOCBP partner must be using an adequate method of contraception to avoid pregnancy throughout the study and for up to 6 months after the PIPAC or last dose of chemotherapy in such a manner that the risk of pregnancy is minimized .-WOCBP include any female who has experienced menarche and who has not undergone successful surgical sterilization (hysterectomy, bilateral tubal ligation, or bilateral oophorectomy) or is not postmenopausal. Post menopause is defined as: Amenorrhea ≥ 12 consecutive months without another cause or For women with irregular menstrual periods and on hormone replacement therapy (HRT), a documented serum follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) level \> 35 mIU/mL Women who are using oral contraceptives, other hormonal contraceptives (vaginal products, skin patches, or implanted or injectable products), or mechanical products such as an intrauterine device or barrier methods (diaphragm, condoms, spermicides) to prevent pregnancy, or are practicing abstinence or where their partner is sterile (e.g., vasectomy) should be considered of childbearing potential. Inclusion to proceed with PIPAC : Laparoscopy findings must meet all of the below criteria in order to proceed to PIPAC: * PIPAC access is feasible * There is room for aerosol therapy * There is no evidence of impending bowel obstruction * \< 5 L of ascites * Not a candidate for cytoreduction and HIPEC Exclusion Criteria: * Confirmed or suspected extra-peritoneal metastasis * Bowel obstruction requiring nasogastric tube, percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy or exclusive total parenteral nutrition. * Life expectancy of less than 4 months. * Prior intra-abdominal aerosol chemotherapy * Previous anaphylactic reaction to the nab-paclitaxel drug used. * Intra-abdominal Ascites \>5L * Patients may not be receiving any other investigational agents. * Uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to ongoing or active infection, symptomatic congestive heart failure, severe myocardial insufficiency, recent myocardial infarction, severe arrhythmias, severe renal impairment, myelosuppression, or severe hepatic impairment. * Immunocompromised patients such as those with an immunosuppressive medication or a known disease of the immune system. * New York Heart Association (NYHA) Class 3 or 4; myocardial infarction, acute coronary syndrome, diabetes mellitus with ketoacidosis or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) requiring hospitalization in the preceding 6 months. * Exclusive total parenteral nutrition. * Pregnancy. Patients with psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with study requirements.
