Cold plasma for cancer in the abdomen
Part of Cancer clinical trials.
This trial tests whether a special cold gas (called cold atmospheric plasma) can help destroy cancer cells left in the abdomen after surgery. It's for people with certain cancers that have spread to the belly lining.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have cancer that has spread to the lining of your abdomen (called peritoneal metastases)
- You are having surgery to remove as much of the cancer as possible
- You are at least 18 years old
- You give written permission (informed consent) to take part

This trial tests a special cold plasma treatment applied during surgery in the groin to see if it helps reduce wound healing problems after surgery for blocked leg arteries. It may benefit people at higher risk for wound complications.
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 whether cold atmospheric plasma—a gentle, gas-based treatment—can help heal wounds where tubes enter the body for life support. It might offer a new way to care for these delicate spots.
This study tests whether a treatment called 'cold atmospheric plasma' (similar to a gentle, cool gas) can improve moderate-to-severe acne. It might offer a new, drug-free option for people with many pimples or cysts.
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 if surgery to remove visible cancer in the belly combined with heated chemotherapy placed directly into the abdomen can help people with stomach cancer that has spread to the lining of the belly. It is for patients who are well enough to undergo major surgery and meet specific health requirements.
