Abstract:
BACKGROUND/AIM:We evaluated the clinical impact of FOLFOXIRI regimen aiming for conversion surgery in patients with unresectable multiple colorectal liver metastasis (CRLM). PATIENTS AND METHODS:A total of 42 patients with unresectable multiple CRLM who received chemotherapy with molecular agents were included in the analysis. The clinical results of FOLFOXIRI with other regimens were compared. RESULTS:The total conversion rate of 42 unresectable CRLM was 48.1%, and conversion cases had a better prognosis. Clinicopathological characteristics of conversion cases were more frequent in FOLFOXIRI induction, liver limited disease and maximum diameter × number (MDN) over 70. FOLFOXIRI achieved a higher conversion rate compared to other regimens (72.2% vs. 37.5%, p=0.0334), and significantly reduced the medication period until conversion surgery (median 5.8 courses) with a higher tumour necrotic rate. Consequently, the overall survival of conversion cases with FOLFOXIRI was better than that with other regimens (p=0.0055). CONCLUSION:FOLFOXIRI plus molecular agents might provide a higher probability of conversion surgery with a prognostic benefit.
