Chemotherapy spray into the belly for stomach, pancreas, or colon cancer
Part of Cancer clinical trials.
This trial tests a new way to give chemotherapy – as a fine mist sprayed directly into the belly during a short laparoscopy (keyhole surgery). It is for people whose stomach, pancreas, or colon cancer has spread to the lining of the belly, and who haven't had much chemotherapy before.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older.
- Your cancer started in the stomach, pancreas, or colon and has spread to the lining of your belly (called the peritoneum).

- You are well enough to do daily activities (WHO performance status 0 or 1).
- You don't have a bowel blockage, severe kidney or liver problems, or any other active cancer in the last 6 months.

This Phase 2 study tests whether spraying chemotherapy into the abdomen (through a small procedure) after colon cancer surgery can lower the chance the cancer comes back. It is meant for people with high-risk tumor features but who have had surgery and have no proven relapse yet.
This trial tests a new way to give chemotherapy directly into the belly as a fine mist (called PIPAC) for people whose cancer has spread there. The goal is to see if it’s safe and helps shrink or control the cancer.
This trial tests a specialized chemotherapy delivery method called PIPAC—where chemotherapy is sprayed directly into the abdomen under pressure—for patients with gastric cancer that has spread to the abdominal lining. The goal is to deliver stronger doses of chemotherapy directly to where the cancer is, potentially helping patients who aren't candidates for major surgery.
This trial tests a new way to deliver chemotherapy directly into the abdomen using a spray (called PIPAC) in people with stomach cancer that has spread to the lining of the belly. The aim is to see if it can help control the cancer with fewer side effects.
This trial tests a treatment called PIPAC, where chemotherapy is sprayed as a mist into the abdomen during a minimally invasive surgery. It is for people whose pancreatic cancer has spread to the lining of the belly, and aims to see if this approach is safe and helpful.
This Phase 1 study tests a new way to deliver chemotherapy inside the abdomen (belly) using a pressurized aerosol during a procedure, along with standard blood (IV) chemotherapy. It may help people with advanced ovarian cancer whose tumors have not progressed but are not removable with surgery yet.
