Abstract

Objective To evaluate the effects and toxicities of the hyperthermic peritoneal peffusion with oxaliplatin (L-OHP) and interleukin-2 (IL-2) combined with chemotherapy for treatment malignant asci-tes. Methods 42 patients with malignant aacites from assimilation system tumor were catheterized,drained and flushed with L-OHP 85 mg/m2 in 2 000 ~2 500 ml of 5 % glucose and IL-2(2 MU),NRL-001 Double RF tumor hyperthermia system was applied to heat the abdominal part for 60 ~ 120 minutes at an intraperitoneal temperature of 41 -43 ℃ ,next day,all the patients were treated with calcium folinate(CF)0. 2 g/m2 by 2 hours intravenous infusion,5-fluorouracil (5-FU) 0. 4 g/m2 intravenously, followed by 46 hours continuous infusion of 5-FU (1 600 mg/m2), 2 weeks a cycle. Results The overall response rate was 66. 67%, including CR : 6 cases, PR:22 cases, NC:6 cases, and PD:8 cases. MST is 5.6 months. The main toxicity was impatient abdomen ache,paralysis intestinal obstruction. Conclusion Hyperthermic peritoneal perfusion with oxaliplatin and inter-leukin-2 combined with chemotherapy is efficient and safe in the treatment malignant ascites and can improve the quality of life. It is worthing wildly using and research. Key words: Oxaliplatin; Interleukin-2; Hyperthermia; induced; Drug therapy; Ascites
