Navigating the Uncharted Waters of Peritoneal Surface Malignancy Management – Key Unresolved Questions. This figure delineates the principal uncertainties and ongoing debates in the treatment of peritoneal surface malignancies. It encompasses a spectrum of critical aspects, from patient selection to the intricacies of surgical and chemotherapeutic interventions. Each segment reflects a pivotal area of inquiry: Patient Selection: The enigma of creating robust, universally applicable criteria for patient eligibility for advanced treatments. Complete Cytoreductive Surgery: The challenge in defining and achieving complete cytoreduction, and the quest for predictive accuracy in preoperative evaluations. HIPEC: The pursuit of standardizing Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy parameters to balance efficacy and safety. PIPAC: The exploration of long-term efficacy and safety profiles for Pressurized Intraperitoneal Aerosol Chemotherapy. Drug Regimen: The conundrum of optimizing chemotherapeutic agents and regimens tailored to individual patient and tumor profiles. CAR T-Cells and Checkpoint Inhibitors: The exploration into identifying predictive markers for responsiveness to CAR T cells and checkpoint inhibitors in the treatment of peritoneal surface malignancies. Molecular Status: The challenge of integrating molecular diagnostics into personalized treatment strategies. Indication of Each Procedure: The ongoing debate over the specific indications and comparative effectiveness of various treatment modalities.
