Brief summary
In this study, the investigators assessed whether intraoperative Intraportal infusion of 5-FU and oxaliplatin is able to prevent liver metastasis in patients receiving curative colorectal cancer resection.
Detailed description
In this study, the investigators assessed whether intraoperative Intraportal infusion of 5-FU and oxaliplatin is able to prevent liver metastasis and improve survival in patients with Stage II or Stage III colorectal cancer without apparent liver metastasis based on a thorough preoperative evaluation. Patients with stage II or stage III colorectal cancer (CRC) were randomly assigned to two arms.Arm A: 5-FU 1g and oxaliplatin 100mg + curative resection (study group, n=132). Arm B: curative resection alone (control group, n=132).Follow-up: X-ray, US, CT, blood test, colonoscopy,every 3months. The study endpoints were disease-free survival, overall survival, and liver metastasis-free survival as evaluated by intent-to-treat analysis.
Interventions
Patients with stage II or stage III colorectal cancer (CRC) were randomly assigned to two arms. In arm A, patients accepted intraoperative intraportal infusion of 5-FU 1g and oxaliplatin 100mg+ curative resection + mFOLFOX6.
Patients with stage II or stage III colorectal cancer (CRC) were randomly assigned to two arms. All patients in both arms accept curative resection of colorectal cancer,and accept standard adjuvant chemotherapy (mFOLFOX6).
