Abstract | Background: Despite the improvement in therapies, pancreatic cancer represents one of the most cancer-related deaths. In our hypothesis, we propose that Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy with gemcitabine after pancreatic cytoreductive surgery could reduce tumor progression by reducing residual neoplastic volume and residual pancreatic cancer stem cells. Materials and methods: A randomized trial involving 42 patients. All patients were diagnosed with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma. Group I: R0 resection. Group II. R0 resection and HIPEC with gemcitabine (120 mg/m Results: From 2017 to 2023, 63 patients were recruited for our clinical trial; 21 patients were included in each group, and 21 were excluded. Locoregional recurrence, Conclusions: The use of HIPEC with gemcitabine after surgery in patients with resectable pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma reduces locoregional recurrence and may be associated with a significant decrease in pancreatic cancer stem cells. |
