pubmed:abstractText |
Liver metastases are the principal cause of death in patients with advanced colorectal cancer (CRC). Irinotecan is a chemotherapeutic agent used in the treatment of CRC and has demonstrated synergistic potential when used with radiation. Radioembolization with yttrium-90 microspheres has demonstrated increased response and survival rates when given with fluorouracil chemotherapy. This study's goal was to evaluate the maximum-tolerated dose of concomitant irinotecan and radioembolization in fluorouracil-refractory patients with CRC hepatic metastases.
