Study Overview
Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to determine whether combining of radiofrequency ablation (RFA) and cytokine-induced killer cells (CIK) transfusion can prolong survival of patients with colorectal cancer liver metastases (CRCLM).
Detailed Description
The primary objective is to evaluate whether RFA followed by CIK transfusion can prolong survival of patients with resectable CRCLM.

Arms & Interventions
RFA alone
Patients undergo radiofrequency ablation alone.
Intervention: Radiofrequency ablation (Procedure)
RFA+CIK
Autologous cytokine-induced killer cells were transfer via venous one week after RFA.
Intervention: Radiofrequency ablation (Procedure)
RFA+CIK
Autologous cytokine-induced killer cells were transfer via venous one week after RFA.
Intervention: Cytokine-induced killer cells (Biological)
Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Recurrence-free survival
Time Frame: One year
Recurrence-free survival (RFS) was defined as the time from the date of RFA to the date of recurrence or the date of the last follow-up.
Secondary Outcomes
- Adverse events(4 weeks)
