NCT00210106

Brief Summary

The hypothesis is that radiofrequency ablation combined or not with resection may allow a local control (the liver) in patients suffering from unresectable colorectal liver metastases. Patients may have benefit or not from a preoperative (neoadjuvant) chemotherapy.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Complete Hepatic Response Rate at 3 Months

    Complete hepatic response (CHR) rate was defined as the absence of new hepatic lesions or contrast enhancement at the ablation and resection sites on CT performed at 2 and 3 months. CHR at 3 months was reported

    3 months

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Overall Survival

    at 1 and 2 years

  • Event-free Survival

    at 1 and 2 years

Study Arms (1)

Intraoperative radiofrequency ablation (IRFA)

EXPERIMENTAL

IRFA treatment, either with or without resection, was performed at laparotomy within 28 days of inclusion in the study. The type of IRFA current generator and probes, and whether or not resection was performed, was at the discretion of the surgeon.

Device: Ablathermy

Interventions

Intraoperative radiofrequency ablation (IRFA)
