Evaluation of Treatment Response of Colorectal Cancer Liver Metastases With Intravoxel Incoherent Motion Diffusion Weighted Imaging
This trial evaluates the treatment response of colorectal cancer that has spread to the liver (liver metastases) using intravoxel incoherent motion diffusion weighted imaging (IVIM DWI). IVIM DWI is new kind of imaging scan that may help measure changes in disease before and after chemotherapy in patients with colorectal liver metastases.
• Patients with treatment-naive resectable CLM, who will start chemotherapy with oxaliplatin with fluorouracil (5-FU)/leucovorin (FOLFOX), irinotecan with 5-FU/leucovorin (FOLFIRI), or a combination, such as fluorouracil, leucovorin, oxaliplatin and irinotecan (FOLFOXIRI), with or without a biologic agent
• Patients with at least 1 colorectal liver metastasis measuring at least 1 cm
• Patients with anticipated follow-up before and after surgery at MD Anderson
