[Intraperitoneal chemotherapy using CBDCA for malignant gynecological tumors].
At our clinic for peritoneal dissemination cases of gynecological malignant tumors, we have been using intraperitoneal administration (ip) of anticancer agents such as CDDP with favorable results. However, since CDDP cannot be used for patients with renal dysfunction, we have administered CBDCA ip, and along with determining drug concentration, we also studied therapeutic effects. At the time of laparotomy in 5 cases of malignant tumors (ovarian cancer 4 cases, oviduct cancer 1 case), we subcutaneously implanted a reservoir port for the peritoneum in the upper inguinal region. Through this completely open port we administered by natural dripping 200-450 mg/body of CBDCA dissolved abdominal fluid and peripheral venous blood, and we determined the concentrations of total and free platinum. The ip concentration of platinum reached a peak of 142-19.8 micrograms/ml immediately after administration, and then gradually declined; at 8 hours it became 20.1-2.23 micrograms/ml, and was still detectable at 48 hours. In the peripheral venous blood peaked at 2 hours at 4.78-1.2 micrograms/ml, and was still observed at 48 hours. One 84-year-old patient with stage III oviduct cancer and renal dysfunction showed a marked reduction in ascites and improvement in PS from 4 to 1, so she is being treated on an outpatient basis. The efficacy rate was 60.0% with 2 CR and 1PR. Repeated ip administration of CBDCA was possible even in cases with renal damage rather than CDDP, but the side effects on the blood were severe. CBDCA ip achieves an effective level of free platinum in both the peritoneum administration methods for treating peritoneal disseminated cases.
