Brief Title: WCC# 59 Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy Utilizing Carboplatin in First Recurrence Ovarian Cancer
Official Title: WCC# 59: Pilot Study of Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy Utilizing Carboplatin in First Recurrence
Study ID: NCT01144442
Brief Summary: This is an open-label, pilot study in patients with a diagnosis of recurrent ovarian, fallopian tube or primary peritoneal carcinoma who have undergone standard cytoreductive surgery following by adjuvant chemotherapy. It is expected that this first surgery was optimal - as defined as no residual tumor \> or = 1 centimeter. Patient has clinical evidence of a first recurrence. The patient undergoes surgery and isotonic normal saline (perfusate) heated and administered into the abdomen, followed by hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy infusion (HIPC) administering carboplatin (chemotherapy). Six weeks after surgery patients will receive adjuvant chemotherapy with Paclitaxel and Carboplatin for 6 cycles.
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES * The primary objectives are * to determine the clinical response of hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPC) in patients at the time of first clinical recurrence of ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal carcinoma * to determine the feasibility of delivering HIPC in a recurrent setting. * Secondary objectives are * to determine disease free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS), * to determine treatment related changes in quality of life (QOL) * to monitor the toxicities and complications associated with HIPC.
