Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
PRIMARY Objectives:
To determine the toxicity and safety of a monthly cytotoxic regimen combining intraarterial hepatic (HAI) cisplatin with systemic intravenous liposomal doxorubicin in patients with cancer metastatic to the liver.
SECONDARY Objectives:
To document in a descriptive fashion the antitumor efficacy of monthly hepatic intraarterial cisplatin in combination with systemic liposomal doxorubicin.
Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
If you are eligible to take part in this study, you will enter a treatment period that is divided into cycles. Each cycle is 28 days. You will be hospitalized to receive your chemotherapy. The night of the hospital admission you will receive fluids (normal saline) in your veins to help avoid kidney side effects from the chemotherapy. The morning after your admission to the hospital you will be taken to the interventional radiology suite and a catheter will be placed in your right groin. You must be on bedrest the entire time that the catheter is in place. After the procedure, you will go to Nuclear Medicine and a test called "flow study" will be carried out to confirm the right position of the catheter. After your return to the room, the nurses will start the chemotherapy. You will first receive cisplatin through the groin catheter followed by the liposomal doxorubicin given in one of your veins. The treatment lasts less than three hours and is repeated once every month.
The catheter will be carefully taped so it can not move and to prevent it from coming out. Following completion of chemotherapy infusion, the intra-arterial catheter will be pulled and pressure applied to the groin for 15 minutes. In some cases, the catheter will be removed immediately after your chemotherapy infusions is complete. In some cases, the catheter will remain in longer. You will be on bedrest until the catheter is removed. The catheter will be removed by the physician on call. The catheter will be placed and removed at each treatment.
Blood (about 2 teaspoons) will be drawn for blood counts and liver function tests before each dose to be sure researchers are safely giving you the liposomal doxorubicin.
Since most of the blood flow to your liver comes through the portal vein, your doctors will try to cause an infarct (like a stroke) to the liver artery followed by the injection of cisplatin to kill the tumor cells.
You will be seen by a doctor or advanced practice practitioner every day while you are in the hospital. You will be hospitalized for about 5-7 days until recovery from all immediate treatment related side effects.
You will continue to receive therapy as mentioned above until the disease gets worse or intolerable side effects occur.
At the end of your participation in this study, you will have scans to see if your tumors are growing or shrinking, and blood work (about 3 teaspoons) to make sure your blood counts and the electrolytes (salts in your blood), kidney and liver function are at a safe level.
