Case
54 year old male with Stage IV (T2N1cM1b) rectal cancer s/p chemoradiation followed by low anterior resection. Preoperatively he had an anal canal metastasis that clinically completely resolved after his chemoradiation. During LAR, liver and lung nodules were found. F/U CT showed 6 mm RLL nodule. On MRI, 2 superficial liver masses (2 cm x 3 cm) are noted and c/w metastasis with patent hepatic veins and right anterior and posterior portal vein thrombosis. Lung nodule remained unchanged but hepatic metasteses decreased in size and were resected after completing 5 rounds of FOLFOX w/ Bevacizumab.
Primary CRC mass 2.5 x 1.5 cm CEA: 1.5 Metastasis : 1 regional LN, 2 liver metastases V and VII 2.0 x 3.0 cm, RLL nodule 6.0 mm KRAS mutation is negative
Liver Cancer
Most common liver cancer is metastasis usually from the GI tract
Colorectal Cancer
Aim
Resectability Reduce recurrences Improving overall survival
Resectability
Past: defined as how much liver lost Today: defined as how much liver left 5 factor scoring system (Fong et al. 1999)
1. node-positive primary 2. disease free interval < 12 months 3. more than one lesion 4. size >5 cm 5. carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) >200 ng/ml
Unresectable
extensive liver involvement (>70% liver invasion or all three hepatic veins involved) major liver insufficiency extrahepatic unresectable disease unfit for surgery Ultimately resectable
tumor shrinkage with chemotherapy
Unresectable
metastases are never likely to be resectable
Biologically challenging
Indicators of short progression-free survival (PFS)
synchronous presentation multiple metastases large (>5 cm) single lesion high CEA
Other factors
age comorbities performance status
Chemotherapy Regimens
FOLFOX: Oxaliplatin plus FU and leucovorin
5-fluorouracil: pyrimidine analog antimetabolite that interferes with DNA and RNA synthesi Leucovorin: supplies the necessary cofactor blocked by methotrexate and restores folate for DNA/RNA synthesis, stabilizes the binding of 5-dUMP and thymidylate synthetase, enhancing the activity of fluorouracil
80% completed the preoperative part of the treatment 52% completed the postoperative six cycles 43% completed full perioperative treatment Toxicity observed during the preoperative chemotherapy was consistent with the previous experiences with FOLFOX Postoperative complications observed in the experimental arm (25% versus 16%; P = 0.04) No impact on postoperative death rate (1% in both arms)
Bittoni et al. 2013
Overall Survival
Follow-up of 8.5 years, and 221 reported deaths (61% of all randomized patients) No statistically significant difference in OS between the patients in the chemotherapy arm and the patients who underwent only surgery 5-year OS rate
51.2% in the chemotherapy arm 47.8% in the surgery arm 52.4% versus 48.3% in all eligible patients
