Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to find the highest dose that can be given safely to people who have had liver disease resected. This is a Phase I study. The goal of a phase I study is to find a safe dose range based on side effects. The drugs that will be given by vein are OXALIPLATIN ("Oxali") plus 5-FLUOROURACIL and LEUCOVORIN ("5FU" and "LV"). This is systemic chemotherapy, since it goes to the whole body. The drugs that will be placed in the pump are FLOXURIDINE (FUDR) and DEXAMETHASONE. (The dexamethasone is not an anti-tumor drug; it helps protect healthy liver tissue from possible side effects of the FUDR.) This is the regional chemotherapy, since it goes only to the liver. The researchers have studied these drugs and know the best doses of each when they are used in patients who have not had liver resections. We do not yet know how the drugs work with each other in patients with a liver resection. This study will tell us the best doses of each drug when they are given over the same period of time.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: Adjuvant Hepatic Arterial Infusion & Combination Chemotherapy

This is a Phase I study with the primary objective of defining the maximum tolerated dose of hepatic arterial floxuridine (FUDR) and dexamethasone (Dex) given via an implanted pump in combination with intravenous oxaliplatin plus systemic fluorouracil (5FU)/leucovorin (LV) in the adjuvant setting after resection of hepatic metastases from colorectal cancer. A total of eleven dose levels will be considered.

Drug: FOLFOX regimen

Drug: dexamethasone

Drug: floxuridine

Drug: fluorouracil

Drug: leucovorin calcium

Drug: oxaliplatin

Procedure: adjuvant therapy

Procedure: conventional surgery

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Maximum tolerated dose [2 years]

  2. Correlate thymidylate synthase, dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase, and ERCC-1 with survival and recurrence as measured by normal and tumor liver tissue [2 years]
