Despite extensive clinical research, no effective therapy for advanced malignant pleural mesothelioma has been established. In this study, we induced apoptosis in patients with this disease, using intrapleural perfusion hyperthermo-chemotherapy, a new procedure developed in our surgical department. We then measured the tumorcidal effect.
