Study population: Initially unresectable CRLM patients who were successfully converted and achieved no evidence of disease status from June 2013 to June 2020 were retrospectively collected. 1:2 propensity score matching (PSM) was performed to balance the baseline characteristics between CA and CT cohorts. After PSM, 196 patients werethe disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) were evaluated between two cohorts (CA:N=66, CT:N=132).

About this study
Official title: Chemotherapy Alone Versus Chemotherapy Plus Targeted Therapy as Adjuvant Therapy for Initially Unresectable Colorectal Cancer Liver Metastases: A Retrospective Cohort Study
Chemotharapy plus targeted therapy regimen, as an adjuvant therapy, can effectively reduce the rate of both intrahepatic and extrahepatic recurrence in initially unresectable CRLM patients. Those with KRAS/NRAS/BRAF mutated tumors or cycle of conversion therapy ≤ 4 can benefit more from chemotharapy plus targeted therapyrather than from chemotharapy alone, with a tolerable toxicity profile.
Read the detailed description
This multi-center study enrolled consecutive patients with initially unresectable CRLM who underwent conversion therapy or radiofrequency ablation (RFA) and achieved no NED status between June 1, 2013, and June 30, 2020, from Zhongshan Hospital of Shanghai, Zhongshan Hospital of Xiamen, Cancer Hospital of Beijing. The inclusion criteria were as follows: (1) with histologically confirmed CRC; (2) with initially unresectable synchronous liver metastases (LMs); (3) accepted conversion therapy and successfully converted into resectable status; (4) underwent R0 intestinal and hepatic resection; (5) accepted adjuvant therapy. The exclusion criteria were as follows: (1) R1/R2 resection; (2) extrahepatic metastases; (3) accepted postoperative monotherapy; (4) lack of follow-up data. According to the adjuvant therapy regimen (with or without targeted therapy), the cohorts were divided into CA cohort and CT cohort. The study was approved by the ethics committee of three medical centers and was adhered to Good Clinical Practice guidelines and the Declaration of Helsinki. Written informed consent was obtained from all participants.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
Targeted agentDrug
The two cohorts received different adjuvant therapy regimens, with the CT group receiving chemotherapy plus targeted therapy; the CA group received chemotherapy alone.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Chemotherapy plus Targeted therapy (CT) | The treatment decisions and evaluation of treatment outcomes, such as the assessment of metastases resectability and tumor response, were carried out by the multi-disciplinary team (MDT) comprising experts from each medical centers. In this cohort, initially unresectable colorectal cancer liver metastasis (CRLM) patients who were successfully converted and achieved no evidence of disease status were treated with chemotherapy plus targeted therapy, as adjuvant therapy.

| Chemotherapy Alone (CA) | In this cohort, initially unresectable colorectal cancer liver metastasis (CRLM) patients who were successfully converted and achieved no evidence of disease status were treated with chemotherapy, as adjuvant therapy. |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
relapse-free survival
The relapse-free survival (PFS) was defined as the period from the start of initial liver resection to the date of tumor relapse or death
Measured: 3 years
Secondary outcomes (1)
overall survival
The overall survival (OS) was defined as the period from the start of initial liver resection until death from any cause, at which point the data was censored.
Measured: 5 years

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 7 Sep 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
Are results available for this study?

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
relapse-free survival (time frame: 3 years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 7 Sep 2023.
