Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this study is to investigate whether TAC plus FOLFOX4 or TACE plus folfox4 are able to improve resection rate and overall survival in patients receiving primary colorectal tumor resection than given FOLFOX4 only.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

We administered three cycles FOLFOX4 plus TAC(oxaliplatin,FUDR and MMC) or FOLFOX4 plus TACE(oxaliplatin,FUDR,MMC and embolision) to primary colorectal tumor resected patients with unresected liver metastasis. The study endpoints were resection rate of liver metastasis, progression-free survival, overall survival as evaluated by intent-to-treat analysis.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

1

folfox4 chemotherapy was done within 28 days after primary surgery. Per 3 weeks, patients will receive one cycle. After 3 cycles, patients will received transhepatic arterial chemoembolision (TACE) using oxaliplatin, fudr, mmc and iodine. Then begin folfox4 again.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

TACE + folfox 4
