About

Colorectal cancer patients with metastases (mCRC) at response under first-line chemotherapy are candidates for an convenient maintenance treatment.

Full description

Colorectal cancer is one of the most common malignant tumors, with the morbidity of approximate 100 million cases per year. About 40% of patients present with metastatic (stage IV) colorectal cancer at the time of diagnosis, and about 25% of patients with local lesion will ultimately develop metastatic disease.Therefore, our study is designed to investigate that colorectal cancer patients with metastases (mCRC) at response under first-line chemotherapy are candidates for an convenient maintenance treatment.
