Objective: To investigate whether the combination of neoadjuvant hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (NHIPEC) plus intravenous neoadjuvant chemotherapy (IV NACT) has superior efficacy to IV NACT alone., Design: Retrospective cohort study., Setting: Two tertiary referral university hospitals., Population: Patients with ovarian cancer who received NACT-interval debulking surgery (IDS) between 2012 and 2020., Methods: The tumour response to NACT was evaluated with the chemotherapy response score (CRS) system. Survival outcomes were compared., Main Outcome Measures: CRS 3, progression-free survival (PFS), and overall survival (OS)., Results: In total, 127 patients were included, and 46 received NHIPEC plus IV NACT. The addition of NHIPEC was independently associated with an increased likelihood of CRS 3 (p = 0.033). Patients who received NHIPEC + IV NACT had significantly improved PFS compared with those who received IV NACT alone (median PFS: 22 versus 16 months, p < 0.001). The use of NHIPEC was identified as an independent predictor of PFS (p < 0.0001). OS did not differ significantly between treatment groups (p = 0.062), although a trend favouring NHIPEC was noted. Incidence of grade 3-4 adverse events and the surgical complexity score of IDS were similar between the two groups., Conclusions: Compared with IV NACT alone, the combination of NHIPEC and IV NACT resulted in improved tumour response and longer PFS. The addition of NHIPEC did not increase the risk of adverse effects or affect the complexity of IDS., (© 2022 John Wiley & Sons Ltd.)

In the title compound, C(14)H(11)Cl(2)NO, the two benzene rings are non-coplanar [dihedral angle = 60.9 (3)°]. In the crystal, an amide N-H⋯O hydrogen bond links the mol-ecules into chains which extend along (001).

The title compound, C(6)H(5)Cl(2)N, is almost planar, with an r.m.s. deviation of 0.0146 Å for all atoms except for the 5-choloromethyl Cl atom. The offset Cl atom lies above this plane with a Cl-C-C angle of 111.11 (17)°. In the crystal, mol-ecules are connected via inter-molecular C-H⋯N hydrogen bonds, forming dimers.

In the crystal structure of the title compound, C(14)H(9)F(6)NO(3), mol-ecules are connected by inter-molecular C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds. The best planes through the benzene and pyridyl rings make a dihedral angle of 1.59 (12)°.

In the crystal structure of the title compound, C(22)H(13)Cl(2)N(3), the mol-ecules are connected via inter-molecular C-H⋯N and N-H⋯N hydrogen bonds, forming a three-dimensional network. The dihedral angles between naphthyl ring system and the pyridyl and benzene rings are 55.04 (7) and 75.87 (7)°, respectively, whereas the pyridyl and benzene rings are oriented at a dihedral angle of 59.56 (8)°.

The title compound, C(8)H(12)Br(2)O(4), lies about a crystallographic center of inversion at the midpoint of the central C-C bond. The latter is also repsonsible for the observation of the meso form. There are no intra-molecular hydrogen bonds, but mol-ecules are connected by inter-molecular C-H⋯O inter-actions, forming a three-dimensional network.

In the title compound, C(14)H(16)BrNO(4), inter-molecular C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds link the mol-ecules, forming a stable structure. An intra-molecular N-H⋯O hydrogen bond results in the formation of a six-membered ring and helps to establish the mol-ecular conformation which is almost planar, with an r.m.s deviation of 0.0842 Å.

The title compound, C(14)H(12)F(3)NOS, was synthesized by the reaction of 2-chloro-3-(2,2,2-trifluoro-eth-oxy)pyridine and phenyl-methane-thiol. The dihedral angle between the aromatic rings is 76.7 (2)°. In the crystal structure, weak aromatic π-π stacking between inversion-related pairs of pyridine rings [centroid-to-centroid separation = 3.776 (2) Å] may help to establish the packing.

In the title Schiff base, C(15)H(13)Br(2)NO, the benzene and phenyl rings form a dihedral angle of 75.18 (13)°. The N=C bond length of 1.263 (6) Å is shorter than of the N-C bond [1.476 (5) Å], indicating a double bond. In the crystal, there is some pseudosymmetry. This occurs because most of the two mol-ecules are centrosymmetrically related. The mol-ecular structure is stabilized by intra-molecular O-H⋯N hydrogen bonds.
