Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
This single arm study will assess the resection rate of liver metastasis, time to disease progression, and safety of neoadjuvant treatment with Avastin in combination with oxaliplatin and capecitabine (XELOX) in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer with unresectable liver metastasis. Patients will receive Avastin 5mg/kg iv on day 1 of every 2 week cycle, oxaliplatin 85mg/m2 iv on day 1 of every 2 week cycle, and capecitabine 1000mg/m2 on days 1-5 and 8-12 of every 2 week cycle. The anticipated time on study treatment is 3-12 months, and the target sample size is \<100 individuals.

- After 5 cycles of neoadjuvant treatment (10 weeks)
- description
- Participants were assessed via microscopic and macroscopic examination for tumor resectability after completion of 5 cycles of neoadjuvant treatment. Unresectable participants exhibited any of the following criteria: greater than or equal to (≥) 4 liver metastases; location and/or distribution of metastatic disease within the liver considered unsuitable for resection with clear margins; liver involvement precluding resection, in the setting of adequate parenchymal volume for otherwise viable liver function in the immediate postoperative period; and inability to maintain adequate circulation for viable liver function. Participants who had not met any of the above criteria at the end of 5 cycles underwent surgical resection. The percentage of participants with conversion from initially unresectable to resectable liver metastases was calculated as \[number of participants eligible for surgical resection divided by the number analyzed\] multiplied by 100.
