“…22). For clinical application, where intratumoral temperature does not exceed 42°C during the treatment time, the need for TSLs for mild hyperthermia in the range of 40 -42°C is obvious (11,(23)(24)(25). Time-averaged temperatures of 41°C can be achieved easily in 50% of all of the measured tumor sites in the clinical setting (11).…”

“…Cisplatin is believed to interact with DNA resulting in both interstrand and intrastrand crosslinks [6], and the temperature enhancement of cisplatin's genotoxicity agrees with observations made by oncologists that the antineoplastic agent has greater cytotoxicity and enhanced antitumorigenicity at elevated temperatures [7,8]. The increased bioactivity of cisplatin observed with elevated temperature has been attributed to a variety of different mechanisms, including (1) an increase in the cisplatin-DNA reaction kinetics [9], and (2) an increase in the cellular uptake of the compound and a resultant increase in DNA adduct formation [10,11].…”

“…Furthermore, both patients who were potentially platinum sensitive and had at least one “good” thermochemotherapy session are alive 43 and 40 months later without evidence of disease in the abdomen. In a similar setting, but with cisplatin, Leopold et al (33) achieved the desired temperature in only 10% of the cases. These results demonstrate that a closed‐abdomen technique with local anesthesia is not simple, since it is usually not tolerated.…”
