Liver surgery trial for non-colorectal cancer spread
Part of Cancer clinical trials.
This trial studies people who have liver metastases from cancers other than colorectal cancer and are undergoing surgery to remove them. It aims to gather data on outcomes after liver resection.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be 18 years or older.
- You must have a confirmed diagnosis of liver metastases from a cancer that is not colorectal cancer (either first diagnosis or a return of the disease).
- You must be scheduled for or have had surgery to remove part of your liver (liver resection).
- You cannot have severe psychiatric illness that would make it hard to follow study visits.
- You cannot have an ASA score of IV (a measure of severe health risk before surgery).
- You cannot have had only non-surgical procedures like ablation or chemoembolization instead of liver surgery.

This trial compares two surgical approaches for removing liver metastases from colon cancer: anatomical resection versus nonanatomical resection. It aims to see which approach works better for people whose tumors have certain genetic changes or are on the right side of the colon.
This trial studies liver transplantation for people with colorectal cancer that has spread to the liver but cannot be surgically removed. It aims to see if transplant can improve outcomes when the cancer is limited to the liver.
This trial studies liver transplantation for certain people with colorectal cancer that has spread only to the liver and cannot be removed with surgery. It aims to improve outcomes for carefully selected patients whose cancer is controlled on chemotherapy and who meet specific safety and scan requirements.
This trial tests two procedures—irreversible electroporation and stereotactic body radiotherapy—for people whose colorectal cancer has spread to the liver (1–3 tumors near major blood vessels or bile ducts) and can't be surgically removed or treated with heat. The goal is to see if these approaches can safely destroy those hard-to-reach tumors.
This study tests a local (targeted) approach for breast cancer that has spread to the liver. It looks at whether treating liver metastases with planned liver surgery, along with standard cancer treatment before and after, can improve outcomes.
This trial looks at whether a living-donor liver transplant can help people with colorectal cancer that has spread to the liver but cannot be surgically removed. It focuses on people whose cancer has not worsened on prior chemotherapy and who are medically able to undergo a major liver surgery.
