About

The purpose of this study was a randomized controlled trial to compare the effect of oxaliplatin and raltitrexed treatment of colorectal cancer with liver metastases by TACE hepatic artery infusion

Full description

Colorectal cancer is one of the most common malignancies, with 1 million new cases and half a million deaths each year worldwide. The development of metastases is the main cause of death. Liver metastases are diagnosed in 10-25% of patients at the time of resection of their primary colorectal tumor and, eventually, up to 70% of patients with colorectal cancer develop liver metastases.Oxaliplatin and raltitrexed were used for the treatment of colorectal cancer with liver metastases. We aimed to perform a randomized controlled trial to compare the effect of oxaliplatin and raltitrexed treatment of colorectal cancer with liver metastases by TACE hepatic artery infusion.

Enrollment: 100 estimated patients

Sex: All

Ages: 18 to 80 years old

Volunteers: No Healthy Volunteers

Inclusion and exclusion criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

3. Confirmed by pathology or clinical diagnosis of unresectable colorectal cancer with liver metastases patients(including the primary tumor and liver in patients with brain metastases except outside of metastasis in patients with unresectable)

4. Progress systemic chemotherapy or who can not tolerate chemotherapy, or who refuse chemotherapy

5. Never received TACE treatment

6. (M) RECIST 1.0 criteria measurable liver lesions at several ≥2, each lesion diameter ≥3 cm long and ≤20cm,

11. Exist once or primary lesion or histologically different tumors and colorectal cancer, except: head and neck carcinoma in situ, cured basal cell carcinoma, superficial bladder cancer (Ta, Tis, T1), and the group 3 years ago, it has been cured of cancer

12. HIV infection or the presence of AIDS-related illness, or severe acute and chronic diseases

13. Drug abuse, or suffering that could interfere with study compliance and other psychological or psychiatric disorders
