Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy for Recurrent Ovarian Cancer

Hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) is a procedure in which the internal parts of the abdomen are bathed in a warm solution of anti-cancer medications for 90 minutes.

"Carboplatin, delivered as HIPEC, will be administered at the time of surgery. Subjects will receive a single cycle of hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy.~a single dose of carboplatin (800 mg/m2) will be administered in normal saline via intraperitoneal hyperthermic perfusion using the closed-abdomen technique. HIPEC will be continued for 90 minutes in the hyperthermic phase (41°C-43°C)."
