Percutaneous microwave ablation of disappearing colorectal liver metastases using US-MR fusion imaging guidance with integration of pre-chemotherapy imaging: A case report

open access: yesCurrent Problems in Cancer: Case Reports, 2022
Liver metastases that disappear after chemotherapy are called vanishing or disappearing liver metastases. These metastases represent a diagnostic and clinical challenge as their biological behaviour is hardly predictable and their treatment is not ...

Local Treatment of Unresectable Colorectal Liver Metastases: Results of a Randomized Phase II Trial

open access: yesJournal of the National Cancer Institute, 2017
Background: Tumor ablation is often employed for unresectable colorectal liver metastases. However, no survival benefit has ever been demonstrated in prospective randomized studies.

First human study in treatment of unresectable liver metastases from colorectal cancer with irinotecan-loaded beads (DEBIRI)

open access: yes, 2012
The objective of this pilot clinical study was to assess the safety, technical feasibility, pharmacokinetic (PK) profile and tumour response of DC Bead™ with irinotecan (DEBIRI™) delivered by intra-arterial embolisation for the treatment of metastatic ...

The clinical effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of ablative therapies in the management of liver metastases: systematic review and economic evaluation

open access: yes, 2014
Background: Many deaths from cancer are caused by metastatic burden. Prognosis and survival rates vary, but survival beyond 5 years of patients with untreated metastatic disease in the liver is rare.

Whole-volume vs. segmental CT texture analysis of the liver to assess metachronous colorectal liver metastases [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Purpose: It is unclear whether changes in liver texture in patients with colorectal cancer are caused by diffuse (e.g., perfusional) changes throughout the liver or rather based on focal changes (e.g., presence of occult metastases).

Nivolumab versus docetaxel in previously treated advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (CheckMate 017 and CheckMate 057): 3-year update and outcomes in patients with liver metastases

open access: yesAnnals of Oncology, 2018
Background Long-term data with immune checkpoint inhibitors in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) are limited. Two phase III trials demonstrated improved overall survival (OS) and a favorable safety profile with the anti-programmed death-1 antibody ...

Risk factors for residual liver recurrence of colorectal cancer after resection of liver metastases and significance of adjuvant chemotherapy

open access: yesAsian Journal of Surgery
Objective: The risk factors for residual liver recurrence after resection of colorectal cancer liver metastases were analyzed separately for synchronous and metachronous metastases.

Liver metastases from lung cancer

open access: yes, 2014
With the improvement of techniques in liver surgery, indications to hepatic resections have been extended in the last decades to liver metastases secondary to non-colorectal, non-neuroendocrine tumors.

Multidisciplinary approach of liver metastases from colorectal cancer

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, 2019
Colorectal cancer liver metastases (CRLM) represent most of the causes of death in patients with colorectal cancer. Surgical resection is the only treatment that can provide the possibility of prolonged survival, or even cure, for patients with CRLM ...
