Spots Global Cancer Trial Database for Intestinal & Multivisceral Transplantation for Unresectable Mucinous Carcinoma Peritonei (TRANSCAPE)

Study Description

Brief Summary: The goal of this prospective phase 2 study is to assess the efficacy and safety of intestinal or multivisceral transplantation for participants with PMP not amenable to other curative-intent treatments. Participants will undergo intestinal/multivisceral transplantation. Participants will be followed for 12 months to assess efficacy and safety.

Detailed Description: Pseudomyxoma peritonei (PMP) is a rare clinical entity (approximately 2-4 cases per million people) characterized by extensive dissemination of mucinous ascites in the abdominal cavity. Relentless accumulation of mucin causes progressive abdominal distention, intestinal obstruction, malnutrition, cachexia, and ultimately death. As a rare disease, diagnosis is often late, and usually occurs when the disease is in a clinically advanced stage. The prognosis of PMP has been dramatically improved by the introduction of cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC). While outcomes are favorable for participants with disease amenable to CRS+HIPEC, the therapeutic options for participants with unresectable PMP are limited. Intestinal transplantation represents a therapeutic option in participants with unresectable PMP. Overall survival has been shown to improve with participants with unresectable PMP during an Oxford Transplant Center study. The goal of this study is to corroborate the Oxford results on an American cohort.
