View clinical trials related to Colorectal Liver Metastasis.
Filter by:Surgery is a primary treatment modality in the intended curative treatment of colorectal liver metastases (CRLM). However, surgery elicits a cascade of potentially detrimental stress responses that may drive the onset of long-term disease progression. Exercise training is emerging as an adjunct treatment in surgical oncology and holds potential to modify the surgical stress response. Against this background, we designed the present randomized controlled trial to evaluate the therapeutic role of pre- and postoperative exercise training in patients with CRLM undergoing open liver resection.
This study is being done to learn more about health related quality of life factors in people having surgery for colorectal liver metastasis. The investigators will look at how these factors may change over time. The information gained from this study will help the investigators to understand the long-term effects that cancer treatments have on the health related quality of life of patients. This information is of high value and will help doctors talk to patients about the possible effects of their operations. While many patients live a long time after such operations, the studies that have been done do not tell the full story of what patients go through after surgery. This study will help us to understand cancer treatment from the patient's perspective. It will also help cancer patients make better decisions about their treatment options and will help them know what to expect after the operation.
