Previous studies and our experience have proved the efficacy and safety of systemic chemotherapy combined with hepatic arterial infusion (HAI) with floxuridine and dexamethasone in patients with initially unresectable colorectal liver metastasis. Hepatic arterial infusion oxaliplatin trials have been done with oxaliplatin alone and in combination with irinotecan, 5-FU/LV, and mitomycin-C and have showed that Hepatic arterial infusion oxaliplatin and FUDR could increase response rate and resection rate for colorectal liver metastasis. Therefore, we designed this study to compare objective response rates of FUDR/Oxaliplatin HAI plus CPT-11 and FOLFOXIRI chemotherapy in patients with initially non-resectable metastatic colorectal cancer liver metastases.
The aim of the trial is to compare the objective response rates of FUDR/Oxaliplatin HAI plus CPT-11 and FOLFOXIRI chemotherapy in patients with initially non-resectable metastatic colorectal cancer liver metastases. The patients will be treated with systemic FOLFOXIRI chemotherapy or FUDR/Oxaliplatin hepatic arterial infusion with CPT-11 systemic chemotherapy.
