Abstract

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Optimized drug regimens for hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) have not been standardized completely in patients with advanced gastric cancer (GC). We evaluated an optimized anti-tumor protocol comprising 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) combined with cisplatin (CDDP) and mitomycin C (MMC) in vitro for clinical use of HIPEC.
