RESUMO
BACKGROUND: The combination of cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) constitutes the established standard of care for pseudomyxoma peritonei patients. However, the role of HIPEC lacks validation through randomized trials, leading to diverse proposed treatment protocols. This consensus seeks to standardize HIPEC regimens and identify research priorities for enhanced clarity. METHODS: The steering committee applied the patient, intervention, comparator, and outcome method to formulate crucial clinical questions. Evaluation of evidence followed the Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development, and Evaluation system. Consensus on HIPEC regimens and research priorities was sought through a two-round Delphi process involving international experts. RESULTS: Out of 90 eligible panelists, 71 (79%) participated in both Delphi rounds, resulting in a consensus on six out of seven questions related to HIPEC regimens. An overwhelming 84% positive consensus favored combining HIPEC with CRS, while a 70% weak positive consensus supported HIPEC after incomplete CRS. Specific HIPEC regimens also gained consensus, with 53% supporting Oxaliplatin 200 mg/m2 and 51% favoring the combination of cisplatin (CDDP) associated with mitomycin-C (MMC). High-dose MMC regimens received an 89% positive recommendation. In terms of research priorities, 61% of panelists highlighted the importance of studies comparing HIPEC regimens post CRS. The preferred regimens for such studies were the combination of CDDP/MMC and high-dose MMC. CONCLUSIONS: The consensus recommends the application of HIPEC following CRS based on the available evidence. The combination of CDDP/MMC and high-dose MMC regimens are endorsed for both current clinical practice and future research efforts.

This manuscript reports the results of an international consensus on technologies of hyperthermic intraperitoneal perioperative chemotherapy (HIPEC) performed with the following goals: To provide recommendations for the technological parameters to perform HIPEC. To identify the role of heat and its application forms in treating peritoneal metastases. To provide recommendations regarding the correct dosimetry of intraperitoneal chemotherapy drugs and their carrier solutions. To identify for each intraperitoneal chemotherapy regimen the best dosimetry and fractionation. To identify areas of future research pertaining to HIPEC technology and regimens. This consensus was performed by the Delphi technique and comprised two rounds of voting. In total, 96 of 102 eligible panelists replied to both Delphi rounds (94.1%) with a consensus of 39/51 questions on HIPEC technical aspects. Among the recommendations that met with the strongest consensus were those concerning the dose of HIPEC drug established in mg/m2, a target temperature of at least 42°C, and the use of at least three temperature probes to pursue hyperthermia. Ninety minutes as the ideal HIPEC duration seemed to make consensus. These results should be considered when designing new clinical trials in patients with peritoneal surface malignancies.
RESUMO
OBJECTIVE: To analyze the reasons for stopping pressurized intraperitoneal aerosolized chemotherapy (PIPAC) delivered for unresectable peritoneal surface malignancies (PSM) and to determine survival in a large patient cohort of an experienced PIPAC center. BACKGROUND: PIPAC alone or combined with systemic chemotherapy was developed to palliatively treat unresectable PSM. Safety, tolerance and promising survival results were already reported, but the reasons for stopping treatment remain unclear and the influence of the number of PIPAC procedures on prognosis has not been evaluated. METHODS: A retrospective analysis of PIPAC procedures from a prospectively maintained single institution PSM database was conducted from January 2016 to January 2023. RESULTS: A total of 346 patients underwent 1200 PIPAC treatments in the defined time period. Two-thirds of the patients completed 3 or more PIPAC procedures, and 2 patients had more than 15 treatment procedures. Reasons for PIPAC cessation were disease progression or complication (56%), reorientation to a potential curative procedure (19%), surgical complications of the procedure (13%), death between procedures (8%) and patient request (3%). PSM origin and receiving 3 or more PIPAC treatments were independently correlated with better survival in the overall population, in the group of ultimately unresectable PSM and after propensity score weighting. CONCLUSION: The main reason for stopping PIPAC treatment in palliative management of PSM is disease progression. When 3 or more PIPAC procedures can be delivered in combination to systemic chemotherapy, survival is significantly improved. Its use should be validated by prospective studies.
RESUMO
Since its creation in 2010, the progressive structuration of the RENAPE network (Réseau national de prise en charge des tumeurs rares du péritoine) supported by the "Institut national du cancer" and the "Direction générale de l'offre de soins", allowed the optimization of the healthcare system involved in the management of the rare cancers of the peritoneum. In this setting, the RENA-PATH group has also been reinforced, notably by its recognized diagnostic expertise in pathology and its interface with the MESOPATH group. Moreover RENAPE and RENA-PATH led to guidelines diffusion through the integration, in 2019, to the ``Thesaurus National de Cancérologie Digestive'' (TNCD) and to post-university medical education programs. The aim of this article is to highlight the missions of the RENAPE and RENA-PATH, notably the equity in terms of expertise, access to the networks and their improvement in the management of peritoneal diseases.

BACKGROUND: Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is responsible for 400,000 deaths annually worldwide. Few improvements have been made despite five decades of research, partially because ARDS is a highly heterogeneous syndrome including various types of aetiologies. Lower airway microbiota is involved in chronic inflammatory diseases and recent data suggest that it could also play a role in ARDS. Nevertheless, whether the lower airway microbiota composition varies between the aetiologies of ARDS remain unknown. The aim of this study is to compare lower airway microbiota composition between ARDS aetiologies, i.e. pulmonary ARDS due to influenza, SARS-CoV-2 or bacterial infection. METHODS: Consecutive ARDS patients according to Berlin's classification requiring invasive ventilation with PCR-confirmed influenza or SARS-CoV-2 infections and bacterial infections (> 105 CFU/mL on endotracheal aspirate) were included. Endotracheal aspirate was collected at admission, V3-V4 and ITS2 regions amplified by PCR, deep-sequencing performed on MiSeq sequencer (Illumina®) and data analysed using DADA2 pipeline. RESULTS: Fifty-three patients were included, 24 COVID-19, 18 influenza, and 11 bacterial CAP-related ARDS. The lower airway bacteriobiota and mycobiota compositions (ß-diversity) were dissimilar between the three groups (p = 0.05 and p = 0.01, respectively). The bacterial α-diversity was significantly lower in the bacterial CAP-related ARDS group compared to the COVID-19 ARDS group (p = 0.04). In contrast, influenza-related ARDS patients had higher lung mycobiota α-diversity than the COVID-19-related ARDS (p = 0 < 01). CONCLUSION: Composition of lower airway microbiota (both microbiota and mycobiota) differs between influenza, COVID-19 and bacterial CAP-related ARDS. Future studies investigating the role of lung microbiota in ARDS pathophysiology should take aetiology into account.

BACKGROUND: Ovarian pseudomyxoma peritonei (OPMP) are rare, without well-defined therapeutic guidelines. We aimed to evaluate cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) to treat OPMP. METHODS: Patients from the French National Network for Rare Peritoneal Tumors (RENAPE) database with proven OPMP treated by CRS/HIPEC and with histologically normal appendix and digestive endoscopy were retrospectively included. Clinical and follow-up data were collected. Histopathological and immunohistochemical features were reviewed. RESULTS: Fifteen patients with a median age of 56 years were included. The median Peritoneal Cancer Index was 16. Following CRS, the completeness of cytoreduction (CC) score was CC-0 for 9/15 (60%) patients, CC-1 for 5/15 (33.3%) patients, and CC-2 for 1/15 (6.7%) patients. The median tumor size was 22.5 cm. After pathological review and immunohistochemical studies, tumors were classified as Group 1 (mucinous ovarian epithelial neoplasms) in 3/15 (20%) patients; Group 2 (mucinous neoplasm in ovarian teratoma) in 4/15 (26.7%) patients; Group 3 (mucinous neoplasm probably arising in ovarian teratoma) in 5/15 (33.3%) patients; and Group 4 (non-specific group) in 3/15 (20%) patients. Peritoneal lesions were OPMP pM1a/acellular, pM1b/grade 1 (hypocellular) and pM1b/grade 3 (signet-ring cells) in 13/15 (86.7%), 1/15 (6.7%) and 1/15 (6.7%) patients, respectively. Disease-free survival analysis showed a difference (p = 0.0463) between OPMP with teratoma/likely-teratoma origin (groups 2 and 3; 100% at 1, 5, and 10 years), and other groups (groups 1 and 4; 100%, 66.6%, and 50% at 1, 5, and 10 years, respectively). CONCLUSION: These results suggested that a primary therapeutic strategy using complete CRS/HIPEC for patients with OPMP led to favorable long-term outcomes.

BACKGROUND: Selected patients with peritoneal metastases of colorectal cancer (PM-CRC) can benefit from potentially curative cytoreductive surgery (CRS) ± hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC), with a median overall survival (OS) of more than 40 months. OBJECTIVE: The aims of this evidence-based consensus were to define the indications for HIPEC, to select the preferred HIPEC regimens, and to define research priorities regarding the use of HIPEC for PM-CRC. METHODS: The consensus steering committee elaborated and formulated pertinent clinical questions according to the PICO (patient, intervention, comparator, outcome) method and assessed the evidence according to the Grading of Recommendation, Assessment, Development, and Evaluation (GRADE) framework. Standardized evidence tables were presented to an international expert panel to reach a consensus (4-point, weak and strong positive/negative) on HIPEC regimens and research priorities through a two-round Delphi process. The consensus was defined as ≥ 50% agreement for the 4-point consensus grading or ≥ 70% for either of the two combinations. RESULTS: Evidence was weak or very weak for 9/10 clinical questions. In total, 70/90 eligible panelists replied to both Delphi rounds (78%), with a consensus for 10/10 questions on HIPEC regimens. There was strong negative consensus concerning the short duration, high-dose oxaliplatin (OX) protocol (55.7%), and a weak positive vote (53.8-64.3%) in favor of mitomycin-C (MMC)-based HIPEC (preferred choice: Dutch protocol: 35 mg/m2, 90 min, three fractions), both for primary cytoreduction and recurrence. Determining the role of HIPEC after CRS was considered the most important research question, regarded as essential by 85.7% of the panelists. Furthermore, over 90% of experts suggest performing HIPEC after primary and secondary CRS for recurrence > 1 year after the index surgery. CONCLUSIONS: Based on the available evidence, despite the negative results of PRODIGE 7, HIPEC could be conditionally recommended to patients with PM-CRC after CRS. While more preclinical and clinical data are eagerly awaited to harmonize the procedure further, the MMC-based Dutch protocol remains the preferred regimen after primary and secondary CRS.
