Efficacy and Safety of DEB-TACE Combined With HAIC Versus HAIC Alone in Patients With Unresectable CRLM

This study is a retrospective, non-randomized, single-arm, single-center clinical study. Patients who received DEB-TACE combined with HAIC or HAIC alone were screened from the treatment records of the Department of Interventional Radiology at Peking University Cancer Hospital between March 2015 and December 2023. The study aims to observe treatment efficacy, disease progression, and postoperative adverse reactions to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of combination therapy versus HAIC alone in patients with colorectal liver metastases (CRLM). Analyses will be conducted based on various parameters, including but not limited to HAIC perfusion regimens and drug-eluting bead tumor characteristics. The primary endpoint of the study is progression-free survival (PFS). Secondary endpoints include overall survival (OS), objective response rate (ORR), disease control rate (DCR), and safety. PFS is defined as the time from the first DEB-TACE plus HAIC or HAIC-alone treatment to disease progression. PFS will be categorized into intrahepatic PFS and overall PFS.
