OBJECTIVES: The choice of an optimal administration route for intraperitoneal (IP) chemotherapy and a suitable chemotherapeutic regime in the treatment of ovarian cancer remains a controversy. We investigated survival outcomes according to catheter intraperitoneal chemotherapy (CIPC), normothermic and hyperthermic chemoperfusion (NIPEC and HIPEC) with cytostatic drugs dioxadet and cisplatin in rats with transplantable ascitic ovarian cancer. METHODS: Ascitic liquid containing 1 × 107 tumour cells was inoculated to female Wistar rats and 48 hours after rats received dioxadet and cisplatin at the maximum tolerated doses. Dioxadet at doses 1.5, 30 and 15 mg/kg and cisplatin at doses 4, 40 and 20 mg/kg body weight were administered for CIPC, NIPEC and HIPEC, respectively. Rats in the control groups received physiological saline and CIPC with physiological saline was regarded as the untreated control. The antitumor activity of the drugs was evaluated as an increase in average life expectancy (ALE). Analysis of the data was based primarily on Bayesian statistics and included Kaplan-Meier method, log-rank test and hazard ratio (HR) estimation. RESULTS: Compared to the untreated control CIPC, NIPEC and HIPEC with dioxadet significantly increased ALE by 101316, 61524 and 1.71735 days, whereas with cisplatin by 61013, 122437 and -13523 days, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: Dioxadet and cisplatin show similar efficacy in the CIPC route. Compared with CIPC IP chemotherapy by chemoperfusions is more effective for both the drugs. Dioxadet in HIPEC showed highest survival benefit whereas largest effect during NIPEC is achieved with cisplatin.
