简要总结
230 patients with colorectal cancer liver metastases will be randomly assigned to resection or thermal ablation.
详细描述
Rationale: The use of thermal ablation of liver tumors is rapidly increasing. This is despite a lack of high-level evidence of the oncologic efficacy of ablation. Ablation is most often used in cases where resection is not possible, but as the technique has improved it is increasingly used as a substitute for resection. A majority of studies on ablation are hampered by selection bias. Selection bias can only be overcome in a randomized controlled trial.
Primary objective:
To compare rates of local tumor progression within 12 months in patients randomly assigned to thermal ablation or surgical resection of colorectal liver metastases.
Secondary objectives:
- To establish a pipeline for immediate three-dimensional verification of the ablated zone following thermal ablation of liver metastases.
- To compare health related quality of life in patients randomly assigned to thermal ablation or surgical resection of colorectal liver metastases.
- To perform a cost-effectiveness analysis (Cost per quality adjusted life year) of thermal ablation and resection of colorectal liver metastases.
- To compare disease-free and overall survival in in patients randomly assigned to thermal ablation or surgical resection of colorectal liver metastases.
- To evaluate the hemodynamic response to thermal ablation and laparoscopic resection of liver tumors.

入选标准
- •Histologically verified colorectal cancer
- •Colorectal liver metastases (proven or suspected) eligible for radical treatment using EITHER resection OR ablation (not a combination), as decided by the liver MDT meeting at the study center
- •The patient is fit to undergo both resection and ablation of all liver metastases
- •Size of largest lesion up to and including 30 mm
- •In case of solitary metastasis, resection plan includes resection of ≤ 2 anatomical segments.
- •In case of multiple metastases in one continuous resection, resection plan can include ≤ 4 anatomical segments (including hemihepatectomy)
- •≤ 5 tumors to be treated in one procedure
- •Primary tumor either resected (primary first) or with a plan for curative treatment (liver first).
排除标准
- •More than 3 lung metastases where 1 is >10mm, or 1 lung metastasis >15 mm (OR: unresectable lung metastases as decided by the lung MDT meeting)
- •Presence of extrahepatic, extrapulmonary metastases.
- •Surgical indication for removal of enlarged lymph nodes in the hepatic hilum. (Enlarged lymph nodes without indication of removal are not considered an exclusion criterium)
- •Tumor closer than 10 mm to right/left main bile duct
- •Suspected tumor infiltration to adjacent organs
- •Progression (as of RECIST [18]) on 2nd line chemotherapy
- •Previous inclusion in this trial
- •Not eligible for workup according to study criteria
- •Contraindication to contrast enhanced CT scan
- •Manifest liver cirrhosis
- •Pregnancy
- •ECOG performance status ≥3
- •Simultaneous resection of primary tumor or any other concomitant surgical procedure
- •Any other reason why, in the investigator's opinion, the patient should not be included.
