Study Overview

Brief Summary

To examine radio frequency ablation as a treatment supplement to stimulate immunogenicity and improve survival for patients undergoing curative-intent surgery for colorectal liver metastases.

Detailed Description

PURPOSE:

To investigate the impact of immunostimulation using radio frequency ablation (RFA) on survival in patients undergoing curative-intent surgery for colorectal liver metastases (CRLM).

HYPOTHESIS:

RFA-mediated partial destruction of CRLM will stimulate the immune system to recognize otherwise hidden cancer antigens, which in turn will improve survival by inhibiting micrometastases and recurrence.
