Intra-arterial Floxuridine vs Systemic Fluorouracil for Hepatic Metastases From Colorectal Cancer: A Randomized Trial

Martin, J. Kirk·1990·Archives of Surgery

Abstract

Seventy-four patients with liver metastasis from proved colorectal primary adenocarcinoma were entered into a prospective, randomized clinical trial to evaluate treatment with intra-arterial floxuridine compared with standard outpatient therapy with fluorouracil delivered by intravenous bolus injection. Eligible patients were randomized to hepatic arterial chemotherapy with an implanted infusion pump or systemic chemotherapy. No crossover between treatment arms was permitted, and patients were followed up to progression and death. Objective tumor response was observed in 48% of patients receiving intra-arterial floxuridine and in 21% of patients receiving intravenous fluorouracil. Time to hepatic progression was significantly longer in the group given intra-arterial therapy: 15.7 vs 6.0 months. However, time to overall progression (6.0 vs 5.0 months) and survival (12.6 vs 10.5 months) were not statistically different. Based on these data, we cannot recommend treatment with intra-arterial floxuridine as given in this study for metastatic colorectal cancer to the liver.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
