A procedure for certain stage-4 abdominal cancers, combining surgery and a specialized chemotherapy treatment, is proving to be successful in giving patients both quantity and quality of life back. On today’s show, learn about the procedure known as HIPEC. We’ll also hear from someone in our community who was treated with HIPEC. And later, we’ll focus on clinical trials, as we learn how trials are carefully reviewed to assure the safety and protection of their participants. That’s all coming up inside this edition of CTSI Discovery Radio!
