Postoperative folfox4 Only vs folfox4 Plus TAC in the Treatment Unresectable Liver Metastasis of Colorectal Cancer: a Randomized,Prospective,Control Trial

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

Detailed Description

We administered three cycles FOLFOX4 plus on TAC (oxaliplatin, FUDR and MMC) or FOLFOX4 only 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.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: 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 chemotherapy(TAC) using oxaliplatin, fudr and mmc. Then begin folfox4 again.
Procedure: tac + folfox4

tac: oxaliplatin 100mg + fudr 1g + mmc 10mg
