Effectiveness Study of Resection of Primary Tumor in Stage IV Colorectal Cancer Patients

April 25, 2017 updated by: Gong Chen, Sun Yat-sen University

Palliative Resection of Asymptomatic Primary Tumor Following Effective Induction Chemotherapy in Colorectal Cancer Patients With Unresectable Distant Metastasis: a Multi-center, Prospective, Randomized Controlled Study

There is still no perfect treatment suggestion for patients with asymptomatic colorectal cancer with unresectable metastatic disease. Whether patients can benefit from palliative resection of primary tumor or not is still waiting for answer. The investigators hypothesis that asymptomatic metastatic colorectal cancer patients who respond to chemotherapy will benefit from primary tumor resection.
