Background: Efficacy of 2nd and 3rdline chemotherapy in recurrent gastric cancer with peritoneal metastasis (RGCPM) is limited. We assessed the feasibility, safety and activity of intraperitoneal chemotherapy as PIPAC C/D in RGCPM after > 1 line of intravenous chemotherapy. Methods: Open-label, single-arm, Phase II ICH-GCP Clinical Trial (NCT01854255) Patients were scheduled for 3 courses q42 days of low-dose PIPAC with doxorubicin 1.5 mg/m2 and cisplatin 7.5 mg/m2. Primary endpoint was objective tumor response (RECIST 1.1). Secondary endpoints were safety (CTCAE 4.0), histological tumor regression (PRGS) and overall survival. Results: 25 patients were enrolled. 10/25 (40 %, ITT) patients had an OTR. Complete or major regression on histology was observed in 9/12 (75 %) patients who underwent at least 2 PIPAC cycles. Mean overall survival was 8.4 months (13.1 months in patients with PCI < 12). There were no treatment-related deaths, no grade 4 toxicity and four (16%) grade 3 toxicities. Conclusions: PIPAC C/D is well tolerated and active in patients with RGCPM. Survival is encouraging. Randomized controlled trials should now be designed. Clinical trial information: NCT01854255
