Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining more than one drug and giving drugs in different ways may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of surgery followed by floxuridine plus systemic fluorouracil and leucovorin in treating patients with liver metastases from colorectal cancer.

Primary outcomes (1)
- measure
- 2 Year Disease-free Survival .
- timeFrame
- 2 years after treatment
- description
- Estimated using the product-limit method of Kaplan and Meier. Disease free survival, defined as first documented evidence of treatment failure. Acceptable evidence includes: Anastomotic - positive cytology or biopsy; Abdominal, pelvic and retroperitoneal nodes - progressively enlarging node as evidenced by 2 CT scans separated by at least a 4 week interval, ureteral obstruction in the presence of a mass as documented on CT scan; Peritoneum - positive cytology or biopsy, progressively enlarged intraperitoneal solid mass as evidenced by 2 CT scans separated by at least 4 weeks; Ascites - positive cytology or biopsy; Liver - positive cytology or biopsy; Pelvic mass - positive cytology or biopsy, progressively enlarging intrapelvic solid mass as evidenced by 2 CT scans separated by at least 4 weeks; Abdominal wall - positive cytology or biopsy; Lung - positive cytology or biopsy or presence of multiple pulmonary nodules; Bone marrow - positive cytology, aspiration or biopsy.
