Treatment groups
Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Intrahepatic progression -free survial(Intrahepatic-PFS)
Intrahepatic progression -free survial is defined as the duration of time from start of treatment to time of progression of hepatic metastasis.
Overall survival (OS)
Overall survival is defined as the time interval from date of diagnosis to date of death from any cause.
Secondary outcomes
Progression-free survival(PFS)
PFS is defined as the duration of time from start of treatment to time of progression or death,whichever occurs first.
Adverse events(toxicities)
The descriptions and grading scales found in the revised Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events(CTCAE 4.0) will be utilized for all toxicity reporting.
