Apoptotic Marker Analysis in Heated-Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy Effluent Fluid Is Associated With Prognosis in Patients With Peritoneal Metastases. | Synapse
To evaluate the correlation between apoptotic markers in HIPEC effluent and the risk of recurrence in patients with peritoneal metastases.
Pilot study design
Analysis of apoptotic markers in HIPEC effluent fluid
Histology-agnostic approach
Apoptotic markers correlate with recurrence risk
Potential to improve patient selection for adjuvant therapies
Abstract
In this pilot study, apoptotic markers in HIPEC effluent are a histology-agnostic assay that correlates with recurrence risk. This biomarker may improve patient selection for adjuvant therapies.
