The Efficacy and Safety of Hepatic Arterial Infusion Chemotherapy for Mismatch Repair Proficient ( pMMR )/Microsatellite Stable ( MSS ) Colorectal Cancer Liver Metastases ( CRLM )

Key Points

To evaluate the efficacy and safety of hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy in pMMR/MSS colorectal cancer liver metastases.
Conducted analysis on patients undergoing HAIC for colorectal cancer liver metastases
Evaluated effectiveness and tolerance of HAIC in patients refractory to systemic therapy
Investigated the potential additive value of targeted therapy alongside HAIC
HAIC shown to be effective and well-tolerated in treated patients
Patients demonstrated a response despite previous systemic therapy failures
Further research needed to assess synergy with targeted therapy

Abstract

HAIC shows effectiveness and tolerance in pMMR/MSS CRLM patients who are refractory to systemic therapy. However, the additive value of targeted therapy for HAIC in these patients needs to be further investigated.
