Secondary Cytoreductive Surgery and Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Cisplatin for the Treatment of Recurrent Mucinous Ovarian Cancer, HI-MOC Study

Trial Status: active

This phase II trial tests whether secondary cytoreductive surgery and hyperthemic intraperitoneal cisplatin works to shrink tumors in patients with mucinous ovarian cancer that has come back (recurrent). Cytoreductive surgery is an operation to remove as much tumor tissue as possible. Hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy is a type of treatment delivery method where the chemotherapy is given directly into the abdominal cavity. Cisplatin is in a class of medications known as platinum-containing compounds. It works by killing , stopping or slowing the growth of cancer cells. This trial aims to see whether hyperthemic intraperitoneal cisplatin given during cytoreductive may help to control ovarian cancer.
