Study Summary

This trial is testing a new cancer treatment combining two drugs, one given directly into the abdomen and one taken by mouth. It is for people with a certain kind of cancer that has spread into the abdomen, and who have had surgery to remove as much of the cancer as possible.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with peritoneal carcinomatosis from colorectal or appendiceal cancer, who've had debulking surgery and have a working intraperitoneal port. They should be ECOG 0-2, recovered from major illnesses, not pregnant or breastfeeding, and without severe neuropathy or allergies to the drugs tested.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests escalating doses of Oxaliplatin given directly into the abdomen in combination with Bevacizumab and Capecitabine taken systemically. It's for patients post-surgery showing clear pathways in their abdominal ports.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects include nerve damage (neuropathy), allergic reactions, bleeding issues due to low platelets, fatigue from anemia or high bilirubin levels, liver enzyme elevations indicating liver stress, and kidney function impairment.

Frequently Asked Questions

These questions and answers are submitted by anonymous patients, and have not been verified by our internal team.

Has the Federal Drug Administration sanctioned Intraperitoneal Oxaliplatin?

"The clinical risk of Intraperitoneal Oxaliplatin is rated as a 1 on the scale due to this being an early-stage trial, which has limited evidence supporting its safety and efficacy."

Answered by AI

For which medical conditions is Intraperitoneal Oxaliplatin prescribed?

"Intraperitoneal Oxaliplatin has demonstrated efficacy in treating recurrent platinum-resistant epithelial ovarian cancer as well as other malignant neoplasms, recurrent platinum sensitive primary peritoneal cancer, and locally advanced nonsquamous non-small cell lung cancers."

Answered by AI

Have other trials been conducted with Intraperitoneal Oxaliplatin treatments?

"Currently, 842 trials are actively pursuing the efficacy of Intraperitoneal Oxaliplatin in 260 Phase 3 studies. The majority of these research initiatives have a presence in Guangzhou, Guangdong; however, 34254 medical sites across the globe are participating."

Answered by AI

What is the upper limit for participation in this experiment?

"This clinical trial has suspended its search for participants as of 11/10/2022. If you are looking to join a different medical study, there are presently 2509 trials enrolling patients with carcinoma and 842 studies that require Intraperitoneal Oxaliplatin volunteers."

Answered by AI

Is enrollment still open for this trial?

"The information provided on clinicaltrials.gov indicates that this trial is not currently recruiting participants, as it was first posted in May 2011 and last updated November 2022. Despite the study's closure to enrollment, there are a plethora of other studies which remain open for recruitment at the moment with 3351 options available."
