Summary: The addition of oxaliplatin to postoperative capecitabine-based chemoradiotherapy did not improve treatment efficacy but increased the risk of severe acute toxic effects. Postoperative capecitabine with radiotherapy plays a fundamental role in the treatment of locally advanced rectal cancer.

Summary: This study suggests that reducing the duration of oxaliplatin treatment from 6 months to 3 months, in combination with fluoropyrimidine, may be an alternative adjuvant treatment option for patients with stage III colorectal cancer. The study shows comparable disease-free survival rates between the 3-month and 6-month arms, while reducing the incidence of neurotoxicity.

Summary: The study suggests that perioperative XELOX-T is feasible and active in patients with HER2-positive GA and GEJA. Further investigation in randomized studies is warranted.

Summary: This study investigates the safety and tolerability of PIPAC oxaliplatin for peritoneal metastases from gastrointestinal tumors, concluding that the recommended phase II dose is 120 mg/m(2). Further studies are needed to clarify the efficacy and role of PIPAC oxaliplatin for peritoneal metastases.

Summary: This study reported the current clinical practice of French physicians for metachronous resectable liver metastasis occurring after a FOLFOX adjuvant chemotherapy for primary cancer. The results showed that preferred therapeutic approaches varied depending on different clinical situations, but there was consensus in the majority of cases.

Summary: This study investigates the maximum tolerable dose of cisplatin, doxorubicin, and oxaliplatin in PIPAC treatment, with the highest dosages achieved to date. Cohorts treated with higher doses tolerate PIPAC well, providing a basis for further clinical trials.

Summary: This study investigated the efficacy and safety of vincristine sulfate liposomal injection in combination with bendamustine and rituximab for indolent B-cell lymphoma. The results showed that the combination therapy was safe and effective, but due to observed toxicities and recurrences, the study did not proceed with an expanded cohort.

Summary: PIPAC is a novel laparoscopic intraperitoneal chemotherapy approach for non-resectable peritoneal carcinomatosis. A model-based dose-escalation design is planned for oxaliplatin, cisplatin, and doxorubicin to optimize their doses applied in PIPAC. Safety is assessed according to CTCAE version 4.03 and secondary endpoints include radiological response and pharmacokinetic analyses.

Summary: This study determined the optimal dose of IP PTX combined with a systemic SOX regimen for treating peritoneal metastasis in advanced gastric cancer to be 80 mg/m(2). No dose-limiting toxicities were observed, and four patients showed a decrease in peritoneal cancer index score under this regimen.
