Overview

Background: Cytoreductive surgery (CRS) removes tumors in the abdomen. HIPEC is hyperthermic (heated) chemotherapy that washes the inside of the abdomen. CRS with HIPEC may help people with peritoneal carcinomatosis. These are tumors that have spread to the lining of the abdomen from other cancers. Researchers think they can improve the results of CRS with HIPEC treatment on these tumors by choosing the chemotherapy drugs used in HIPEC. Objective: To see if HIPEC after CRS can be improved, using either a model called the SMART (Sustained Microenvironment for Analysis of Resected Tissue) System or using 3-D cell culture (organoid) models, in order to test different chemotherapy drugs on tumors that were surgically removed prior to HIPEC treatment (these models are not attached to the body) versus tumors that were treated with HIPEC while still inside the body before being immediately surgically removed. Eligibility: Adults ages 18 and older who have peritoneal carcinomatosis that cannot be fully removed safely with surgery. Design: Participants will be screened with: Medical history Physical exam Blood and urine tests Electrocardiogram (EKG) Computed tomography (CT) scan Other imaging scans, as needed Tumor biopsy, if needed Laparoscopy (small cuts are made in the abdomen, and a tube with a light and a camera is used to see the organs in the abdomen), if needed Participants will enroll in NIH protocol #13C0176. This allows their tumor samples to be used in future research. Some screening tests may be repeated in the study. Participants will have CRS. As many of their visible tumors will be removed as possible during surgery except for a few specific tumors left to receive the HIPEC treatment. Then they will receive HIPEC and the remaining tumors will be immediately removed. Participants will be in the hospital for 7-21 days after this surgery (CRS with HIPEC). Participants will give tumor, fluid samples (from the abdomen during surgery), blood, saliva, cheek swab, and stool for research. They will complete surveys about their health and quality of life. Participants with peritoneal mesothelioma (mesothelioma primary only) will have genetic (DNA) testing to determine clinical (CLIA level) germline BAP1 status for research use. Participants will have follow-up visits for up to 5 years from CRS with HIPEC. If there is disease progression, participants may have CRS with HIPEC again. Participants will then have follow-up visits for up to 5 years from the date of last CRS with HIPEC.

Background: Peritoneal carcinomatosis is uniformly fatal if untreated; improved outcomes are seen with aggressive cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC). The selection of chemotherapeutic agent for HIPEC is largely based on primary tumor histology and provider preference as opposed to knowledge of the potential efficacy of a specific agent for an individual patient. HIPEC is intended to target small or microscopic residual disease following complete cytoreduction; however, the actual efficacy and additional benefit of HIPEC is in question. Tissue response to simulated ex vivo HIPEC treatment in the SMART System or 3-D cell culture (organoid) models could inform chemotherapeutic agent selection for subsequent cytoreduction and intra-operative in vivo HIPEC treatments. Objective: To determine the correlation between ex vivo simulated HIPEC in the SMART System or 3-D cell culture (organoid) models, and in vivo HIPEC with respect to two measures of response to treatment: percent necrosis and Ki-67 Eligibility: Histologically confirmed peritoneal carcinomatosis from peritoneal mesothelioma or atypical mesothelial proliferation, or from appendiceal, colorectal, or ovarian, histologies Absence of extra-abdominal metastatic disease Participant deemed able to undergo optimal cytoreduction Age \>= 18 years of age Design: This is a Phase I study of cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC), with randomization to one of two accepted HIPEC treatment regimens as determined by primary histology. At the time of cytoreduction, representative peritoneal tumor biopsies will be obtained before and after intra-operative in vivo HIPEC treatment. Tumor nodules harvested before intra-operative HIPEC will be placed in either the SMART System or 3-D cell culture (organoid) models, exposed to simulated ex vivo HIPEC treatment, and then perfused or maintained in culture, with subsequent assessment of percent necrosis and Ki-67. Tumor nodules harvested immediately after intra-operative HIPEC will be placed in the SMART System or 3-D cell culture (organoid) models and perfused or maintained in culture, with subsequent assessment of percent necrosis and Ki-67. The correlation of percent necrosis and Ki-67 assessment following simulated ex vivo HIPEC and intra-operative in vivo HIPEC will be determined.

EXCLUSION CRITERIA: * Participants with known extra-abdominal metastatic disease from the participant s appendiceal, colorectal, ovarian, or peritoneal mesothelioma primary. * Participants who have received intraperitoneal chemotherapy or other anti-cancer therapy within the last 4 weeks prior to the start of study treatment. * Participants who have undergone major surgery within the last 12 weeks prior to the start of study treatment. * History of allergic reactions attributed to platinum-containing compounds. * History of dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase deficiency (only participants with appendiceal or colorectal cancer). * Uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to, ongoing or active infection, symptomatic congestive heart failure, unstable angina pectoris, cardiac arrhythmia, or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with study requirements. * Pregnant individuals are excluded from this study because the protocol involves major abdominal surgery and chemotherapeutic agents with the potential for teratogenic or abortifacient effects. Note: Due to an unknown but potential risk for adverse events in nursing infants secondary to treatment of the participant, nursing (including breastfeeding) should be discontinued if the participant is undergoing treatment (i.e., nursing participants must agree to discontinue nursing activities). * HIV-positive participants with detectable viral load despite antiretroviral therapy are ineligible because of participants increased risk of lethal infections when treated with marrow-suppressive therapy. HIV-positive participants who have undetectable viral load on antiretroviral therapy may be considered for this study only after consultation with a NIAID physician.
