Combined Resection of Colorectal Metastases

Phase 2
Completed
Conditions
Colorectal Cancer
Registration Number
NCT00606398
Lead Sponsor
University Health Network, Toronto
Brief Summary

This is a Phase II study of combined surgical resection for patients with both intra- and extra-hepatic metastases from colorectal cancer. The primary objective is to determine the two-year disease free survival (DFS) of patients who undergo surgical resection of both intra- and extra-hepatic metastases from colorectal cancer. The secondary objectives are to determine the overall survival rate (OS), patterns of treatment failure, treatment efficacy (R0 resection rate), peri-operative morbidity and mortality rates, health related quality of life, and hospital length of stay.

Detailed Description

This phase II clinical study will examine the outcomes of surgical therapy for patients with both intra- and extra-hepatic CRC metastases.

The treatment protocol includes surgical resection of metastases from Colorectal cancer. Multi-modality co-interventions such as chemotherapy (neo-adjuvant, or post-operative), radiofrequency ablation (RFA) and/or portal vein embolization (PVE) will be permitted.

The eligibility criteria include: patients with both intra-hepatic and extra-hepatic metastases from colorectal cancer, the number of extra-hepatic metastases must be three or less on pre-operative imaging, all metastatic deposits must be resectable with R0 intent, there must be no contra-indications to major surgery and an ECOG performance status of 0, 1 or 2.
