Summary: This phase II trial studies nivolumab and ipilimumab in treating patients with rare tumors. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab and ipilimumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. This trial enrolls participants for the following cohorts based on condition: Epithelial tumors of nasal cavi...

Summary: This trial will look at a drug called SGN-STNV to find out whether it is safe for patients with solid tumors. It will study SGN-STNV to find out what its side effects are. A side effect is anything the drug does besides treating cancer. It will also study how well SGN-STNV works to treat solid tumors. The study will have two parts. Part A of the study will find out how much SGN-STNV should be give...

Summary: The investigator proposes to use the cardiac coherence technique to diminish anxiety before the surgery of a peritoneal carcinosis of colon or stomach or ovary and pseudomyxoma or peritoneal mesothelioma.

Summary: People who are diagnosed with cancer of the colon/rectum/appendix/ovaries that spreads into the lining of the tummy and some ovarian cancers or people with pseudomyxoma peritonei can often undergo intensive treatment including major surgery where chemotherapy is given whilst the person is having surgery - also known by doctors as surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC). Fitne...

Summary: Appendiceal cancer is a rare disease that does not cause many symptoms. As such, doctors are not sure if chemotherapy actually has an effect on the disease. The goal of this clinical research study is to learn more about the effects that chemotherapy may have on appendiceal cancer.

Summary: Mitomycin-C (MMC) is the most commonly used chemotherapeutic agent for hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) after cytoreductive surgery (CRS) to treat colorectal cancer patients with peritoneal metastases. However, MMC has a side effect of myelosuppression. Particularly, severe neutropenia after CRS with HIPEC can be a life-threatening condition. Despite the postoperative risks of thi...

Summary: Malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) is an aggressive malignancy of the pleural lining with exceptionally poor survival. Median survival from diagnosis is less than 12 months (1). The widespread use of asbestos in past decades together with the long latency of MPM are responsible for the still increasing incidence of MPM (2), affecting 7-40 people per million inhabitants depending on the geographi...

Summary: This is a phase II, mono institutional, non comparative study, evaluating adjuvant capecitabine in patients affected by KRAS mutated Pseudomyxoma peritonei treated with cytoreductive surgery and HIPEC. Patient will be treated with 8 cycles of the study regimen that include: Capecitabine 1250 mg/m2 PO BID day 1-14 q21 days

Summary: The purpose of this study is to register the follow-up data of patients who, because of a peritoneal surface malignancy, will undergo cytoreductive surgery and HIPEC.

Summary: This study analyzes the gastrointestinal microbiome of appendiceal cancer patients with peritoneal spread scheduled to undergo cytoreductive surgery with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (CRS/HIPEC). Participants will provide fecal samples pre- and post-operatively.

Summary: The aim of this study is to identify biomarkers of disease recurrence and prognosis to optimize patient selection for treatment with cytoreductive surgery (CRS) with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC), and through animal models to explore different treatment strategies for peritoneal surface malignancies (PSM).
