Brief Title: Patient-tailored Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy (HIPEC) for Colorectal Peritoneal Metastases (OrganoHIPEC)
Official Title: Organoids From Colorectal Peritoneal Metastases to Improve Cytoreductive Surgery and Patient-tailored Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy (HIPEC)
Study ID: NCT06057298
Brief Summary: The objective of this clinical trial is to demonstrate that cytoreductive surgery and patient-tailored hyperthermic intra-peritoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) will increase efficacy in controlling peritoneal disease. Tridimensional cell cultures (organoids) derived from colorectal cancer peritoneal metastases are used to select the most active drugs in an in vitro HIPEC model on individual-patient level, based on the hypothesis that resistance to drug(s) routinely used for intraperitoneal delivery can explain peritoneal relapse after combined treatment, depending on the individual tumor biology;
Detailed Description: This single-arm, single-center, open-label trial enrolls patients with limited and surgically resectable peritoneal metastases from colorectal cancer, no distant metastases, and no contraindication to major surgery. After signature of informed consent, patients undergo a preliminary laparoscopy to confirm diagnosis of peritoneal metastases, stage the disease, and obtain representative samples of peritoneal metastases. The investigators will use patient-derived organoids to select tailored hyperthermic intra-peritoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) regimens in an in vitro model HIPEC. A set of candidate drugs suitable for intraperitoneal administration are tested on tumor-derived organoids under the same conditions as in the clinical practice (same drug combinations, concentration, exposure time, temperature). Different concentrations are tested to generate reproducible dose-response curves. Patients receive 3-6 month preoperative systemic chemotherapy with targeted agents, according to current guidelines. Those not experiencing disease progression during preoperative systemic chemotherapy will have cytoreductive surgery and HIPEC with drugs selected on the organoid-based preclinical model. Patients will undergo postoperative follow-up.
