Intervention type: Procedure
Intervention name: Pressurized intraperitoneal aerosol chemotherapy (PIPAC)
Description: Laparoscopic exploration of the abdominal cavity with dissection of adhesions and biopsies of suspect findings (if needed). PIPAC will be administered with oxaliplatin (92 mg/m2 body surface area in 150 ml dextrose solution) for 30 minutes under the following spraying conditions: cytostatic application at a rate of 30 ml/min, pressure of 1380 kilo-pascal over 30 minutes, and temperature of 22°C. One hour before the beginning of PIPAC, intravenous infusion of 5-fluorouracil (400 mg/m2) and folinic acid (20mg/m2) will be initiated. Standard protectionist procedures will be adopted to avoid contamination of operators and the environment with nebulized chemotherapy.
Arm group label: Adjuvant pressurized intraperitoneal aerosol chemotherapy (PIPAC)

Summary: The objective of this clinical trial is to demonstrate the feasibility and safety of pressurized intraperitoneal aerosol chemotherapy (PIPAC) for the prevention of peritoneal metastases after curative-intent surgery for high-risk colorectal cancer.

Detailed description: This single-arm, single-center, open-label trial enrolls patients after curative-intent surgery for colon adenocarcinoma (proximal to peritoneal reflection), intestinal or mucinous histological type, associated with the following clinical-pathological risk factors for the development of peritoneal metastases: a) stage pT4a, N0-2b, M0 of the Tumor Node Metastasis classification; b) stage pT4b, N0-2b, M0; and c) primary perforated tumor (any T, any N, M0). Eligible patients who will give informed consent undergo laparoscopic pressurized intraperitoneal aerosol chemotherapy (PIPAC) 4 to 8 weeks after primary surgery, followed by adjuvant systemic chemotherapy according to according to current guidelines. After the procedure, patients will be followed-up to assess occurrence of adverse events,survival, peritoneal and systemic disease relapse, and quality of life.

Criteria for eligibility:
Criteria:
Inclusion Criteria: 1. Histopathological diagnosis of intestinal type, mucinous or signet ring cell adenocarcinoma of the colon (with upper limit of the tumor above peritoneal reflection); 2. curative (microscopically complete) surgery performed by laparotomy or laparoscopy; 3. presence of at least one of the following risk factors for the development of metachronous peritoneal metastases: - perforated primary tumor (any T, N0-2b, M0); - primary tumor infiltrating the visceral peritoneum (pT4a, N0-2b, M0), or directly invading adjacent organs (pT4b, N0-2b, M0); 4. age > 18; 5. performance status 2 according to the World Health Organization score; 6. willingness to start adjuvant systemic chemotherapy and post-operative follow-up; 7. Signing of informed consent. Exclusion Criteria: 1. active sepsis; 2. cardiac function impairment (history of previous heart failure or 40% ejection fraction); 3. renal impairment (serum creatinine >1.5 normal value or creatinine clearance 60 ml/min); 4. liver function impairment (aspartate aminotransferase, alanine aminotransferase, bilirubin > 1.5 normal value); 5. bone marrow function impairment (leukocytes 4000 / mm3, neutrophils 1500 /mm3, platelets 80000/mm3); 6. lung function impairment (diagnosis of severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease or 50% forced expiratory volume at one second or 40% diffusion capacity of lung for carbon monoxide adjusted for age); 7. extra-abdominal and/or hepatic metastases at the Computed Tomography scan of the chest, abdomen and pelvis with intravenous contrast; 8. severe complications (grade 3-4) after primary cancer surgery; 9. haemorrhagic diathesis or coagulopathy; 10. pregnancy or lactation in progress; 11. psychiatric or neurological conditions such as to preclude protocol procedures; 12) contraindications to laparoscopy; 13) known hypersensitivity to oxaliplatin or other platinum containing compounds and/or to any of their excipients; 14) history of previous malignancies treated in the last three years, excluding cutaneous spinocellular carcinoma and/or basocellular carcinoma; 15) prior pre-operative radio-chemotherapy..
