“…The authors demonstrated a significant increase of the intraperitoneal levels of VEGF immediately after debulking surgery, followed by a consistent decrease in the next hours. Moreover, the authors demonstrated that the initial intraperitoneal VEGF levels were significantly associated with the risk of postoperative complications and underlined the fact that preoperative administration of Bevacizumab might decrease these levels and therefore, improve the outcomes of these patients 23 .…”

“…In order to determine the potential factors which might influence the evolution of peritoneal carcinomatosis patients after debulking surgery and HIPEC, Passot et al conducted a study in which they investigated the influence of intraperitoneal vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) burden 23 . The study included 97 patients with peritoneal carcinomatosis from various origins submitted to debulking surgery between February and October 2012, the most commonly reported origins being colorectal and ovarian -each in 15 cases, followed by pseudomyxoma peritonei and gastric origin; among cases with other origins, one patient was diagnosed with peritoneal metastases from breast cancer origin.…”

“…High VEGF levels have been found in malignant ascites, and the introduction of VEGF antisense oligonucleotides decreased VEGF levels and inhibited ascites formation. 1316 Bevacizumab is a humanized anti-human VEGF-A monoclonal antibody that specifically binds to VEGF, and it has been approved by the Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of several types of cancers, including colorectal, non-small-cell lung, renal, and ovarian cancers. 17 Bevacizumab is intravenously injected using common doses of 5 mg/kg every 2 weeks or 7.5 mg/kg every 3 weeks.…”

“…Third, preclinical and early clinical data demonstrate a role for BEV in the treatment of PC and/or ascites from CRC or ovarian cancer [ 28 31 ]. In a recent clinical study, Passot and colleagues determined intravenous (IV) and IP VEGF levels before and after CRS and HIPEC [ 32 ]. They found that the IP VEGF concentration increased significantly after surgery and that neoadjuvant BEV was associated with a lower IP VEGF level in a multivariate model.…”
