Study Summary

This trial is comparing the effectiveness of two different treatments for ovarian, primary peritoneal, or fallopian tube cancer that has come back. One treatment is surgery to remove as much of the cancer as possible, followed by a single dose of chemotherapy given through the abdomen directly to the area where the cancer was. The other treatment is 6 cycles of standard chemotherapy given intravenously.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 21 with recurrent ovarian, primary peritoneal, or fallopian tube cancers after initial platinum-based chemotherapy. They must have minimal residual disease post-surgery and be in good physical condition. Excluded are those with prior abdominal radiation, other recent cancers, low malignant potential tumors, heart disease, acute hepatitis, severe lung issues, compromised immune systems, known allergies to carboplatin or cisplatin, metastatic disease outside the abdomen or a life expectancy under 3 months.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests the effectiveness of combining surgical cytoreduction (CRS) with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) using Carboplatin in patients with recurrent ovarian cancer. After surgery leaving ≤2.5 mm residual disease and HIPEC treatment at high temperatures for 90 minutes follows standard IV platinum-based chemotherapy cycles.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects include reactions to Carboplatin such as nausea and vomiting; complications from surgery; risks associated with hyperthermia like burns or heatstroke; and general chemo-related side effects like fatigue, blood disorders and increased risk of infection.
