Survival of patients with liver metastases from colorectal cancer treated with bevacizumab and FOLFOX4.

Purpose: In patients with colorectal liver metastases (CLM) a long term survival and a probability of cure might be achieved with the surgical treatment of metastatic sites after prior application of systemic treatment. The purpose of this study was to assess the survival of patients with unresectable CLM treated with bevacizumab (bev) and FOLFOX4 (FOLFOX-bev) and to compare survival according to patient, disease and treatment characteristics. Methods: This research included 110 patients with unresectable CLM treated with FOLFOX-bev.
