Abstract:
BACKGROUND:The aim of this study was to analyze the outcome of patients that received neoadjuvant chemotherapy prior to resection for colorectal liver metastases (CRLM) and compare them with a matched cohort of patients that underwent resection followed by adjuvant chemotherapy. METHODS:687 patients have undergone curative resection between January 1993 and January 2006. In this period, 84 patients received neo-adjuvant chemotherapy and 71 of this group went on to resection. A control group was chosen, matched with these patients, made up of patients who underwent resection followed by adjuvant chemotherapy. RESULTS:There was no difference in clinico-pathological features between the neoadjuvant and the control group. However patients in the control group had more-extended resections and longer hospital stays than those in the neoadjuvant group (p = 0.015). Patients in the control group had an increased incidence of early recurrences (p < 0.001). Despite this, there was no significant difference in either the cancer-specific or the disease-free survival between the two groups of patients. CONCLUSION:Neoadjuvant chemotherapy has a role in the management of patients with disease that is considered initially unresectable as a down-sizing technique. In patients with resectable disease, the test-of-time approach that neoadjuvant therapy offers is yet to be proven.
