Background. High-intensity ultrasound (HIUS) has been studied for the past two decades as a new therapeutic option for solid tumor direct treatment and a method for better chemotherapy delivery and perfusion. +is treatment approach has not been tested to our knowledge in peritoneal metastatic therapy, where limited tissue penetration of intraperitoneal chemotherapy has been a main problem. Both liquid instillations and pressurized aerosols are affected by this limitation. +is study was performed to evaluate whether HIUS improves chemotherapy penetration rates. Methods. High-intensity ultrasound (HIUS) was applied for 0, 5, 30, 60, 120, and 300 seconds on the peritoneal tissue samples from fresh postmortem swine. Samples were then treated with doxorubicin via pressurized intraperitoneal aerosol chemotherapy (PIPAC) under 12 mmHg and 37 C temperature. Tissue penetration of doxorubicin was measured using fluorescence microscopy on frozen thin sections. Results. Macroscopic structural changes, identified by swelling of the superficial layer of the peritoneal surface, were observed after 120 seconds of HIUS. Maximum doxorubicin penetration was significantly higher in peritoneum treated with HIUS for 300 seconds, with a depth of 962.88±161.4 μm (p < 0.05). Samples without HIUS had a penetration depth of 252.25±60.41. Tissue penetration was sig- nificantly increased with longer HIUS duration, with up to 3.8-fold increased penetration after 300 sec of HIUS treatment. Conclusion. Our data indicate that HIUS may be used as a method to prepare the peritoneal tissue for intraperitoneal che- motherapy. Higher tissue penetration rates can be achieved without increasing chemotherapy concentrations and preventing structural damage to tissue using short time intervals. More studies need to be performed to analyze the effect of HIUS in combination with intraperitoneal chemotherapy. Various approaches have been made to improve the avail- 1.

Pressurized intraperitoneal and pressurized intraluminal aerosol chemotherapies have been introduced to improve the treatment of advanced, multiresistant surface malignancies by overcoming limitations in drug penetration through the use of pressure and microaerosol [26, 27]. However, attempts to further improve were only partially successful, as changes of treatment parameters have only modestly improved pene- tration rates [4, 14]. Adding irradiation and modifying ap- plication modes [10] did not improve performance either, as penetration levels were mostlylimited to the first few hundred microns. However, we know that increasing tissue penetra- tion enhances the antitumor effect with a higher local drug disposition [1]. In our study, we demonstrate the previously unrecognized potential of HIUS to enhance drug penetration to many folds in the peritoneal tissue. In the clinical setting, HIUS is being increasingly used as noninvasive treatment of both primary and metastatic tumors. Besides its effects described here, it has addi- tional antitumor effects including ablation and me- chanical disruption of cancer tissue [28, 29]. HIUS has already been shown to be useful in the treatment of uterine fibroids [30], various solid tumors of pancreas, (a) (b) liver, renal system, and prostate, and breast cancer [31–34].

Background. High-intensity ultrasound (HIUS) has been studied for the past two decades as a new therapeutic option for solid tumor direct treatment and a method for better chemotherapy delivery and perfusion. +is treatment approach has not been tested to our knowledge in peritoneal metastatic therapy, where limited tissue penetration of intraperitoneal chemotherapy has been a main problem. Both liquid instillations and pressurized aerosols are affected by this limitation. +is study was performed to evaluate whether HIUS improves chemotherapy penetration rates. Methods. High-intensity ultrasound (HIUS) was applied for 0, 5, 30, 60, 120, and 300 seconds on the peritoneal tissue samples from fresh postmortem swine. Samples were then treated with doxorubicin via pressurized intraperitoneal aerosol chemotherapy (PIPAC) under 12 mmHg and 37 C temperature. Tissue penetration of doxorubicin was measured using fluorescence microscopy on frozen thin sections. Results. Macroscopic structural changes, identified by swelling of the superficial layer of the peritoneal surface, were observed after 120 seconds of HIUS. Maximum doxorubicin penetration was significantly higher in peritoneum treated with HIUS for 300 seconds, with a depth of 962.88±161.4 μm (p < 0.05). Samples without HIUS had a penetration depth of 252.25±60.41. Tissue penetration was sig- nificantly increased with longer HIUS duration, with up to 3.8-fold increased penetration after 300 sec of HIUS treatment. Conclusion. Our data indicate that HIUS may be used as a method to prepare the peritoneal tissue for intraperitoneal che- motherapy. Higher tissue penetration rates can be achieved without increasing chemotherapy concentrations and preventing structural damage to tissue using short time intervals. More studies need to be performed to analyze the effect of HIUS in combination with intraperitoneal chemotherapy. Various approaches have been made to improve the avail- 1.

Pressurized intraperitoneal and pressurized intraluminal aerosol chemotherapies have been introduced to improve the treatment of advanced, multiresistant surface malignancies by overcoming limitations in drug penetration through the use of pressure and microaerosol [26, 27]. However, attempts to further improve were only partially successful, as changes of treatment parameters have only modestly improved pene- tration rates [4, 14]. Adding irradiation and modifying ap- plication modes [10] did not improve performance either, as penetration levels were mostlylimited to the first few hundred microns. However, we know that increasing tissue penetra- tion enhances the antitumor effect with a higher local drug disposition [1]. In our study, we demonstrate the previously unrecognized potential of HIUS to enhance drug penetration to many folds in the peritoneal tissue. In the clinical setting, HIUS is being increasingly used as noninvasive treatment of both primary and metastatic tumors. Besides its effects described here, it has addi- tional antitumor effects including ablation and me- chanical disruption of cancer tissue [28, 29]. HIUS has already been shown to be useful in the treatment of uterine fibroids [30], various solid tumors of pancreas, (a) (b) liver, renal system, and prostate, and breast cancer [31–34].
