About this study

Official title: Peri-operative Chemotherapy VS Postoperative Chemotherapy for the Treatment of Colon Cancer With Resectable Liver Metastasis: a Prospective Randomized Clinical Trial

A prospective Randomized Clinical Trial to investigate the Effect ofPeri-operative Chemotherapy VS Postoperative Chemotherapy for the Treatment of Colon Cancer With Resectable Liver Metastasis

Read the detailed description

Colon cancer (colorectal cancer CRC) is one of the most common malignant tumor of digestive tract, has become the global incidence of third malignant tumors, including colorectal cancer proportion increased year by year. With the way of life of residents in our country, the adjustment of diet and aging progress, the incidence of colorectal cancer is rising the trend, and most patients have been found in advanced disease. Tumor metastasis is an important factor affecting the prognosis of colon cancer, liver metastasis, especially, including simultaneous liver metastases and delayed liver metastasis from colon cancer, about 20% to 34% will appear at the same time of liver metastasis, about 40-50% of CRC patients died of liver metastasis at present, multi disciplinary team treatment to surgical treatment of the absolute dominance of the more and more attention, and benefit, but the optimum sequence of chemotherapy and surgery, is still unclear. The preoperative chemotherapy Potential advantages include: early treatment of micrometastasis; assessment of tumor response to chemotherapy (with prognostic value, contribute to the development of postoperative treatment plan); for those patients with early progression can avoid local treatment. Preoperative treatment of the potential disadvantages include: missed the surgery opportunity window period ", probably because in early stage of tumor progress, may also be because chemotherapy achieved complete remission and to determine the extent of resection surgery has become extremely difficult.2015 second edition of the NNCN guidelines that resectable metastatic disease initial resectable patients may be liver resection, adjuvant chemotherapy and postoperative; another alternative treatment mode is around perioperative chemotherapy (perioperative chemotherapy and postoperative chemotherapy). Therefore, gaps in the determination of the timing of chemotherapy is still the guide, worth exploring.

I center to carry out laparoscopic resection of colon cancer has been more than ten years, the accumulated number of cases more than 1000 cases, with rich experience of colon cancer. Comprehensive treatment including surgery, oncology, Radiology, pathology, Department of radiotherapy, a number of departments, the Department of endoscopy MDT team, and won the outstanding team of Chinese Medical Doctor Association in 2016 MDT honor.

This study used a prospective randomized method, evaluation of colon cancer with simultaneous resectable liver metastatic lesions and peri chemotherapy surgery after neoadjuvant chemotherapy of two therapeutic schemes for short-term and long-term effect, is expected to summarize the prospective data to support the operation and chemotherapy
