[Systemic chemotherapy for advanced colorectal cancer with liver metastasis].
We report the progress of systemic chemotherapy for advanced colorectal cancer with liver metastasis. It must be noted that the purpose of this treatment is to prolong the symptom-free period. Review of hepatic arterial infusion (HAI) compared with systemic chemotherapy for the treatment of unresectable liver metastases from colorectal cancer showed that was attained with HAI a much higher response rate and survival benefit than systemic chemotherapy. However, systemic chemotherapy has shown progress since that time. Regarding administration methods, continuous injection is better than bolus injection for 5-FU. New modulators of 5-FU have also became available, such as leucovorin, CPT-11, and I-OHP. Futhermore, many studies of 5-FU-based combination therapy have shown that the mean survival time (MST) and response rate (RR) are now close to those of HAI. Finally, the combination with HAI with systemic chemotherapy using CPT-11 resulted in the highest RR of 74%. Further trials of such combination therapy will be performed in the future.
