Basic Information

• Recruitment Status: RECRUITING
• Clinical Phase: PHASE3
• Total Enrollment: 142 participants
• Study Classification: INTERVENTIONAL
• Study Start Date: 2014-03-31
• Study Completion Date: 2024-12-31

Brief Summary

The primary objective of this study is to determine whether systemic chemotherapy combined with hepatic arterial infusion with floxuridine and dexamethasone can increase the complete resection rate (R0) and improve the overall survival in patients with initially unresectable colorectal liver metastasis.

Detailed Description

Recent studies and our experience have proved the efficacy and safety of systemic chemotherapy combined with hepatic arterial infusion (HAI) with floxuridine and dexamethasone in patients with initially unresectable colorectal liver metastasis. However, most of them are retrospective studies, phase I or II clinical researches, which could not provide high-level evidence. Therefore, we designed this study to determine whether systemic chemotherapy combined with HAI can increase the complete resection rate (R0) and improve the overall survival in patients with initially unresectable colorectal liver metastasis.

Study Groups

Systemic chemotherapy

Patients will receive mFOLFOX6 every 28 days: Oxaliplatin 85 mg/m2 IV over 3 hours on Day 1, 15; Leucovorin (l-LV) 200mg/m2 IV over 2 hours on Day 1, 15; followed by 5-Fluorouracil 2.4 g/m2 for 46 hours continuous infusion on Day 1, 15.

Group Type: EXPERIMENTAL

mFOLFOX6

Intervention Type: DRUG

Patients will receive mFOLFOX6 every 28 days: Oxaliplatin 85 mg/m2 IV over 3 hours on Day 1, 15; Leucovorin (l-LV) 200mg/m2 IV over 2 hours on Day 1, 15; followed by 5-Fluorouracil 2.4 g/m2 for 46 hours continuous infusion on Day 1, 15.

Systemic chemotherapy combined with HAI

Patients will receive mFOLFOX6+HAI every 28 days: Oxaliplatin 85 mg/m2 IV over 3 hours on Day 1, 15; Leucovorin (l-LV) 200mg/m2 IV over 2 hours on Day 1, 15; followed by 5-Fluorouracil 2.4 g/m2 for 46 hours continuous infusion on Day 1, 15. 0.12 mg/kg/day floxuridine (FUDR) and 25 mg dexamethasone in normal saline to a total volume of 300 ml will be administered through the HAI pump.

This will be repeated on Day 1 of each 28-day cycle. FUDR will be administered through a 14-day continuous infusion with the HAI pump.

Group Type: EXPERIMENTAL

mFOLFOX6

Intervention Type: DRUG

Patients will receive mFOLFOX6 every 28 days: Oxaliplatin 85 mg/m2 IV over 3 hours on Day 1, 15; Leucovorin (l-LV) 200mg/m2 IV over 2 hours on Day 1, 15; followed by 5-Fluorouracil 2.4 g/m2 for 46 hours continuous infusion on Day 1, 15.

HAI

Intervention Type: DRUG

Patients will receive HAI every 28 days: 0.12 mg/kg/day floxuridine (FUDR) and 25 mg dexamethasone in normal saline to a total volume of 300 ml will be administered through the HAI pump.

This will be repeated on Day 1 of each 28 day cycle. FUDR administration will be a 14-day continuous infusion using the HAI pump.
