Early response evaluation during preoperative chemotherapy for colorectal liver metastases: Combined size and morphology‐based criteria predict pathological response and survival after resection
2019
Background
Short treatment‐duration with early restaging is crucial to avoid liver injury after preoperative chemotherapy (preopCTX) for colorectal liver metastases (CRLM). Response evaluation according to response evaluation criteria in solid tumors (RECIST) criteria implies several limitations. Early tumor shrinkage (ETS; ≥20% size reduction <6‐12 weeks) or morphological criteria (MC) may better predict oncological outcome.
