ICARuS II (Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy After cytoReductive Surgery): A Multicenter, Randomized Phase II Trial of Normothermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy and Intravenous Chemotherapy After Cytoreductive Surgery and Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy for Malignant Peritoneal Mesothelioma


Sponsor

Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center

Enrollment

64 participants

Start Date

Study Type

INTERVENTIONAL

Conditions

Summary

The purpose of this study is to find out whether intraperitoneal or intravenous chemotherapy given after cytoreductive surgery and HIPEC are effective treatments for people with malignant peritoneal mesothelioma.

Plain Language Summary

Simplified for easier understanding

This study is testing whether additional chemotherapy given after surgery (cytoreductive surgery to remove all visible tumor) improves survival in people with malignant peritoneal mesothelioma — a rare cancer affecting the lining of the abdomen, often linked to asbestos exposure. **You may be eligible if...** - You are 18 years or older with a confirmed diagnosis of epithelioid malignant peritoneal mesothelioma - You have undergone or are planning to undergo complete cytoreductive surgery (removal of all visible cancer from the abdomen) - Your ECOG performance status is 0 or 1 (generally healthy and active) - Your blood counts and organ function (kidneys, liver) meet the required thresholds **You may NOT be eligible if...** - Your mesothelioma is not the epithelioid type - Your tumor could not be fully removed during surgery - You are pregnant or breastfeeding - You have significant other health conditions that would make chemotherapy unsafe Talk to your doctor to see if this trial is right for you.
