RESUMEN
Distant metastases and drug resistance account for poor survival of patients with gastrointestinal (GI) malignancies such as gastric cancer, pancreatic cancer, and colorectal cancer. GI cancers most commonly metastasize to the liver, which provides a unique immunosuppressive tumour microenvironment to support the development of a premetastatic niche for tumor cell colonization and metastatic outgrowth. Metastatic tumors often exhibit greater resistance to drugs than primary tumors, posing extra challenges in treatment. The liver metastases and drug resistance of GI cancers are regulated by complex, intertwined, and tumor-dependent cellular and molecular mechanisms that influence tumor cell behavior (e.g. epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition, or EMT), tumor microenvironment (TME) (e.g. the extracellular matrix, cancer-associated fibroblasts, and tumor-infiltrating immune cells), tumor cell-TME interactions (e.g. through cytokines and exosomes), liver microenvironment (e.g. hepatic stellate cells and macrophages), and the route and mechanism of tumor cell dissemination (e.g. circulating tumor cells). This review provides an overview of recent advances in the research on cellular and molecular mechanisms that regulate liver metastases and drug resistance of GI cancers. We also discuss recent advances in the development of mechanism-based therapy for these GI cancers. Targeting these cellular and molecular mechanisms, either alone or in combination, may potentially provide novel approaches to treat metastatic GI malignancies.
RESUMEN
Introduction: Colorectal liver metastases (CRLM) infiltrating the hilar bifurcation is rarely described. We investigated the outcome of partial hepatectomy combined with resection of the hilar bifurcation. Methods: Data collection for patients who underwent resection for CRLM at our institution was performed prospectively from January 2008 to August 2021. Follow-up ended in August 2023. Patients with and without bile duct infiltration of CRLM were analyzed retrospectively. The primary endpoints were overall (OS) and recurrence-free survival (RFS). Results: A total of 1,156 liver resections were screened. Out of those, 18 were combined resections of the liver and the hilar bifurcation. Bile duct infiltration of CRLM was histologically proven in 5 of 18 cases. Preoperative mild obstructive jaundice occurred in 6 of 18 patients and was treated by drainage. Out of those, only 2 had a confirmed infiltration of the hilar bifurcation by CRLM. The median recurrence-free survival (RFS) was 10 months in those patients with bile duct infiltration compared to 9 months in those with no infiltration (p = 0.503). Conclusion: While CRLM is common, infiltration into the central biliary tract is rare. Tumor invasion of the biliary tree can cause jaundice, but jaundice does not necessarily mean tumor invasion. We have shown that combined resection of the liver and hilar bifurcation for CRLM is safe and infiltration of the bile duct by CRLM did not seem to have a significant effect on RFS or OS.
RESUMEN
Neuroendocrine tumors are an indolent, heterogeneous group of tumors that primarily arise from the gastropancreatic tract and lungs. Most patients present with liver metastases at the time of diagnosis, which cause significant morbidity and mortality due to excess hormone secretion, bile duct obstruction, and liver damage. A small percentage of these patients are eligible for potential cure through surgical resection. However, interventional radiology provides liver-directed therapies, such as percutaneous ablation, transarterial embolization, chemoembolization, and radioembolization, for palliative care and potential bridging to debulking and surgical resection of neuroendocrine liver metastases. This article aims to provide a brief overview of these liver-directed therapies focusing on the pre-, intra-, and postprocedural imaging findings.
RESUMEN
PURPOSE: This study aimed to develop a tumor radiomics quality and quantity model (RQQM) based on preoperative enhanced CT to predict early recurrence after radical surgery for colorectal liver metastases (CRLM). METHODS: A retrospective analysis was conducted on 282 cases from 3 centers. Clinical risk factors were examined using univariate and multivariate logistic regression (LR) to construct the clinical model. Radiomics features were extracted using the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) for dimensionality reduction. The LR learning algorithm was employed to construct the radiomics model, RQQM (radiomics-TBS), combined model (radiomics-clinical), clinical risk score (CRS) model and tumor burden score (TBS) model. Inter-model comparisons were made using area under the curve (AUC), decision curve analysis (DCA) and calibration curve. Log-rank tests assessed differences in disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS). RESULTS: Clinical features screening identified CRS, KRAS/NRAS/BRAF and liver lobe distribution as risk factors. Radiomics model, RQQM, combined model demonstrated higher AUC values compared to CRS and TBS model in training, internal and external validation cohorts (Delong-test P < 0.05). RQQM outperformed the radiomics model, but was slightly inferior to the combined model. Survival curves revealed statistically significant differences in 1-year DFS and 3-year OS for the RQQM (P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: RQQM integrates both "quality" (radiomics) and "quantity" (TBS). The radiomics model is superior to the TBS model and has a greater impact on patient prognosis. In the absence of clinical data, RQQM, relying solely on imaging data, shows an advantage in predicting early recurrence after radical surgery for CRLM.
RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: Colorectal cancer is the third most common tumour entity in the world and up to 50% of the patients develop liver metastases (CRLM) within five years. To improve and personalize therapeutic strategies, new diagnostic tools are urgently needed. For instance, biomechanical tumour properties measured by magnetic resonance elastography (MRE) could be implemented as such a diagnostic tool. We postulate that ex vivo MRE combined with histological and radiological evaluation of CRLM could provide biomechanics-based diagnostic markers for cell viability in tumours. METHODS: 34 CRLM specimens from patients who had undergone hepatic resection were studied using ex vivo MRE in a frequency range from 500 Hz to 5300 Hz with increments of 400 Hz. Single frequency evaluation of shear wave speed and wave penetration rate as proxies for stiffness and viscosity was performed, along with rheological model fitting based on the spring-pot model and powerlaw exponent α, ranging between 0 (complete solid behaviour) and 1 (complete fluid behaviour). For histological analysis, samples were stained with H&E and categorized according to the degree of regression. Quantitative histologic analysis was performed to analyse nucleus size, aspect ratio, and density. Radiological response was assessed according to RECIST-criteria. RESULTS: Five samples showed major response to chemotherapy, six samples partial response and 23 samples no response. For higher frequencies (> 2100 Hz), shear wave speed correlated significantly with the degree of regression (p ≤ 0.05) indicating stiffer properties with less viable tumour cells. Correspondingly, rheological analysis of α revealed more elastic-solid tissue properties at low cell viability and major response (α = 0.43 IQR 0.36, 0.47) than at higher cell viability and no response (α = 0.51 IQR 0.48, 0.55; p = 0.03). Quantitative histological analysis showed a decreased nuclear area and density as well as a higher nuclear aspect ratio in patients with major response to treatment compared to patients with no response (all p < 0.05). DISCUSSION: Our results suggest that MRE could be useful in the characterization of biomechanical property changes associated with cell viability in CRLM. In the future, MRE could be applied in clinical diagnosis to support individually tailored therapy plans for patients with CRLM.

PURPOSE: Subtle liver metastases may be missed in contrast enhanced CT imaging. We determined the impact of lesion location and conspicuity on metastasis detection using data from a prior reader study. METHODS: In the prior reader study, 25 radiologists examined 40 CT exams each and circumscribed all suspected hepatic metastases. CT exams were chosen to include a total of 91 visually challenging metastases. The detectability of a metastasis was defined as the fraction of radiologists that circumscribed it. A conspicuity index was calculated for each metastasis by multiplying metastasis diameter with its contrast, defined as the difference between the average of a circular region within the metastasis and the average of the surrounding circular region of liver parenchyma. The effects of distance from liver edge and of conspicuity index on metastasis detectability were measured using multivariable linear regression. RESULTS: The median metastasis was 1.4 cm from the edge (interquartile range [IQR], 0.9-2.1 cm). Its diameter was 1.2 cm (IQR, 0.9-1.8 cm), and its contrast was 38 HU (IQR, 23-68 HU). An increase of one standard deviation in conspicuity index was associated with a 6.9% increase in detectability (p = 0.008), whereas an increase of one standard deviation in distance from the liver edge was associated with a 5.5% increase in detectability (p = 0.03). CONCLUSION: Peripheral liver metastases were missed more frequently than central liver metastases, with this effect depending on metastasis size and contrast.
RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: To retrospectively analyze the risk factors of liver metastases in patients with gastric cancer in a single center, and to establish a Nomogram prediction model to predict the occurrence of liver metastases. METHODS: A total of 96 patients with gastric cancer who were also diagnosed with liver metastasis (GCLM) and treated in our center from January 1, 2010 to December 31, 2020 were included. The clinical data of 1095 patients with gastric cancer who were diagnosed without liver metastases (GC) in our hospital from January 1, 2014 to December 31, 2017 were retrospectively compared by univariate and multivariate logistic regression. 309 patients diagnosed with gastric cancer in another medical center from January 1, 2014 to December 31, 2018 were introduced as external validation cohorts. RESULTS: Based on the training cohort, multivariate analysis revealed that tumor site (OR = 0.55, P = 0.046), N stage (OR = 4.95, P = 0.004), gender (OR = 0.04, P = 0.001), OPNI (OR = 0.95, P = 0.041), CEA (OR = 1.01, P = 0.018), CA724 (OR = 1.01, P = 0.006), CA242 (OR = 1.01, P = 0.006), WBC (OR = 1.13, P = 0.024), Hb (OR = 0.98, P < 0.001) were independent risk factors for liver metastasis in patients with gastric cancer, and Nomogram was established based on this analysis (C-statistics = 0.911, 95%CI 0.880-0.958), and the C-statistics of the external validation cohorts achieved 0.926. ROC analysis and decision curve analysis (DCA) revealed that the nomogram provided superior diagnostic value than single variety. CONCLUSIONS: By innovatively introducing a new tumor location classification method, systemic inflammatory response indicators such as NLR and PLR, and nutritional index OPNI, the risk factors of gastric cancer liver metastasis were determined and a predictive Nomogram model was established, which can provide clinical prediction for patients with gastric cancer liver metastasis.
RESUMEN
PURPOSE: To investigate the efficacy of ultrasound fusion imaging-assisted microwave ablation (MWA) for patients with colorectal liver metastases (CRLM) based on stratified analysis of tumor size and location. METHODS: Patients with CRLM who underwent ultrasound fusion imaging-assisted MWA in our hospital between February 2020 and February 2023 were enrolled into this retrospective study. Ultrasound fusion imaging was used for detection, guidance, monitoring and immediate evaluation throughout the MWA procedures. Technical success, technique efficacy, local tumor progression (LTP), intrahepatic progression and overall survival (OS) were recorded and analyzed. The subgroup analysis of intrahepatic progression of MWA for CRLM was performed according to tumor size and location. RESULTS: A total of 51 patients with 122 nodules were enrolled. Both technical success and technique efficacy were acquired in all nodules. In a median follow-up period of 19 months, 2.5% of the nodules (3/122) were observed LTP. The 1-year and 2-year cumulative intrahepatic progression rates were 38.7% and 52.1% respectively. Patients were divided into subgroups according to tumor size (≥ 30 mm, n = 13; < 30 mm, n = 38) and tumor location (perivascular, n = 20; non-perivascular, n = 31 and subcapsular, n = 36; non-subcapsular, n = 15). The cumulative intrahepatic progression rates were similar between the subgroups regarding tumor size and perivascular location, while significantly higher in the subcapsular group than in the non-subcapsular group (p = 0.021). CONCLUSION: Ultrasound fusion imaging-assisted MWA exhibited satisfactory local efficacy for CRLM, especially for non-subcapsular tumors.
RESUMEN
Background: Evidence comparing the efficacy of different treatments for patients with unresectable colorectal liver metastases (CRLM) receiving first-line or maintenance therapy is sparse. We aimed to assess the efficacy and safety of these treatments, with a distinct focus on evaluating first-line and maintenance treatments separately. Methods: We conducted Bayesian network meta-analyses, sourcing English-language randomized controlled trials (RCTs) published through July 2023 from databases including PubMed, Embase, the Cochrane Library, ClinicalTrials.gov, and key conference proceedings. Phase â ¡ or â ¢ trials that assessed two or more therapeutic regimens were included. Primary outcome was overall survival (OS). Secondary outcomes included progression-free survival (PFS), objective response rate (ORR), adverse events graded as 3 or above (SAE), and R0 liver resection rate. Hazards Ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) were used as effect size for OS and PFS, Odds Ratios (ORs) and 95% CI were used for ORR, SAEs and R0 resection rate. Subgroup and sensitive analyses were conducted to analysis the model uncertainty (PROSPERO: CRD42023420498). Results: 56 RCTs were included (50 for first-line treatment, six for maintenance therapies), with a total of 21,323 patients. Regarding first-line, for OS, the top three mechanisms were: local treatment + single-drug chemotherapy (SingleCT), Targeted therapy (TAR)+SingleCT, and TAR + multi-drug chemotherapy (MultiCT). Resection or ablation (R/A)+SingleCT, S1, and Cetuximab + intensified fluorouracil-based combination chemotherapy (ICTFU) were identified as the best treatments. For PFS, the top three mechanisms were: Immune therapy + TAR + MultiCT, multi-targeted therapy (MultiTAR), TAR + SingleCT. The top three treatments were: Atezolizumab + Bevacizumab + fluorouracil-based combination chemotherapy (CTFU), TAS-102+bevacizumab, Bevacizumab + ICTFU. Cetuximab + CTFU was the best choice for RAS/RAF wild-type patients. Regarding maintenance treatment, Bevacizumab + SingleCT and Adavosertib were the best options for OS and PFS, respectively. For safety, MultiCT was the safest, followed by local treatment + MultiCT, TAR + MultiCT caused the most SAEs. Bevacizumab plus chemotherapy was found to be the safest among all targeted combination therapies. Conclusion: In first-line, local treatment or targeted therapsy plus chemotherapy are the best mechanisms. R/A + SingleCT or CTFU performed the best for OS, Atezolizumab + Bevacizumab + ICTFU was the best option regarding PFS. For RAS/RAF wild-type patients, Cetuximab + CTFU was the optimal option. Monotherapy may be preferred choice for maintenance treatment. Combination therapy resulted in more SAEs when compared to standard chemotherapy.
RESUMEN
PURPOSE: To use circulating tumor cells (CTC) from the first drainage vein (FDV) of the primary lesion and other clinically relevant parameters to construct a nomogram for predicting liver metastasis in colorectal cancer (CRC) patients, and to provide a theoretical basis for clinical diagnosis and treatment. METHODS: Information from 343 CRC patients was collected and a database was established. Multivariate logistic analysis was used to identify independent factors for colorectal cancer liver metastasis(mCRC) and nomograms were constructed. Receiver operating characteristic curves(ROC), calibration plots, and decision curve analysis (DCA) were used to assess discrimination, agreement with actual risk, and the clinical utility of the prediction model, respectively. RESULT: CTC levels in FDV were significantly higher in patients with liver metastasis than in those without liver metastasis. Logistic multivariate analysis showed that vascular invasion, T stage, carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), CA19-9, and CTC could be used as predictors to construct nomograms. The nomograms showed good discriminatory ability in predicting mCRC, with area under the curve (AUC) values of 0.871 [95 % CI: 0.817-0.924) and 0.891 (95 % CI: 0.817-0.964) for the training and validation sets, respectively.] The calibration curves of both the training and validation sets showed that the model was effective in predicting the probability of mCRC. DCA was used to evaluate this predictive model and showed good net clinical benefit. CONCLUSION: We developed and validated a nomogram model based on the combination of CTC in the FDV with other clinical parameters to better predict the occurrence of mCRC.
RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: In patients with primary and secondary liver cancer, the number and sizes of lesions, their locations within the Couinaud segments, and the volume and health status of the future liver remnant are key for informing treatment planning. Currently this is performed manually, generally by trained radiologists, who are seeing an inexorable growth in their workload. Integrating artificial intelligence (AI) and non-radiologist personnel into the workflow potentially addresses the increasing workload without sacrificing accuracy. This study evaluated the accuracy of non-radiologist technicians in liver cancer imaging compared with radiologists, both assisted by AI. METHODS: Non-contrast T1-weighted MRI data from 18 colorectal liver metastasis patients were analyzed using an AI-enabled decision support tool that enables non-radiology trained technicians to perform key liver measurements. Three non-radiologist, experienced operators and three radiologists performed whole liver segmentation, Couinaud segment segmentation, and the detection and measurements of lesions aided by AI-generated delineations. Agreement between radiologists and non-radiologists was assessed using the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC). Two additional radiologists adjudicated any lesion detection discrepancies. RESULTS: Whole liver volume showed high levels of agreement between the non-radiologist and radiologist groups (ICC = 0.99). The Couinaud segment volumetry ICC range was 0.77-0.96. Both groups identified the same 41 lesions. As well, the non-radiologist group identified seven more structures which were also confirmed as lesions by the adjudicators. Lesion diameter categorization agreement was 90%, Couinaud localization 91.9%. Within-group variability was comparable for lesion measurements. CONCLUSION: With AI assistance, non-radiologist experienced operators showed good agreement with radiologists for quantifying whole liver volume, Couinaud segment volume, and the detection and measurement of lesions in patients with known liver cancer. This AI-assisted non-radiologist approach has potential to reduce the stress on radiologists without compromising accuracy.
RESUMEN
PURPOSE: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is recognized as the third most common form of malignancy, with the liver frequently serving as the main site for metastasis. Anoikis resistance (AR) is critical in colorectal cancer liver metastases (CRLM). Fatty acid synthase (FASN), essential in lipid synthesis, mediates AR in many cancers. The present research examines the function of FASN in ERK1/2-mediated AR in CRLM and evaluates its therapeutic potential. METHODS: We performed scratch and migration experiment to evaluate the migration capacity of the LoVo cells. Flow cytometry was employed to identify cell apoptosis. The levels of FASN, p-ERK1/2, and proteins related to apoptosis was analyzed by Western blot. The mRNA level of FASN was determined by q-PCR after FASN silencing. In addition, we used an intrasplenic liver metastasis model of nude to assess the effect of FASN on CRLM. RESULTS: In vitro experiments showed that after FASN silencing, the cell apoptosis rate was increased, migration capability was notably decreased, the expression of p-ERK1/2, the proteins related to anti-apoptotic were significantly decreased, and the proteins related to apoptosis were significantly increased. In vivo experiments showed that AR significantly increased the number of liver metastatic foci, whereas FASN silencing significantly inhibited CRLM. CONCLUSION: These results suggest that FASN silencing suppressed AR through the ERK 1/2 pathway, which in turn suppressed CRLM.
RESUMEN
Surgery for the management metastatic breast cancer has traditionally been considered a palliative procedure. However, some retrospective publications indicated that there may be a survival benefit to surgery in the presence of metastatic disease. Recent randomized trials will be reviewed for both management of the intact primary tumor in de novo breast cancer and systemic secondary metastases.

Life-threatening side effects of mistletoe therapy are mostly negated by physicians working in complementary medicine. This article reports on a case of life-threatening anaphylactic shock after carrying out mistletoe therapy. In patients with a carcinoid syndrome (flushes, diarrhea, bronchoconstriction) the diagnosis of anaphylactic shock can be masked by the findings of a neuroendocrine neoplasm. Before a planned complementary medicine mistletoe therapy patients should also be well-informed on rare life-threatening side effects.
RESUMEN
Purpose: We proposed to administer Lu-177-DOTATATE in intra-arterial (IA) mode for higher first-pass localization to somatostatin receptors, higher residence time in liver metastases, and more radiation to tumor. This study aimed at assessing early hematological, renal and hepatotoxicity; and objective response to IA peptide receptor radionuclide therapy (PRRT). Materials and Methods: Fourteen patients (4 females and 10 males) were prospectively assessed. 5/14 patients underwent 2 cycles, whereas 3/14 underwent 3 cycles, and 6/14 received 1 cycle of IA PRRT. 200 mCi of Lu-177-DOTATATE was administered in 15-20 min by IA route under angiographic guidance. Patients were asked to follow-up at 4 and 8 weeks with hematological, liver, and renal functional parameters, and Ga-68 DOTATATE positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) after 8 weeks. Response was assessed using RECIST 1.1 and EORTC PET criteria. Results: Safety: 2/14 patients had high total and direct bilirubin, which reverted to normal after IA PRRT. Three patients had low albumin, which improved after 1 cycle. Nine patients showed no worsening of liver function. Two patients showed Grade 1 hematotoxicity which reverted to normal. Five patients showed high creatinine, but preserved glomerular filtration rate and EC clearance. On follow-up at 8 weeks, serum creatinine reverted to normal. Efficacy: In five patients who underwent 2 cycles of IA PRRT, 3 showed partial response (PR) on RECIST 1.1 and partial metabolic response (PMR) on EORTC criteria, whereas 2 showed stable disease (SD). In patients who underwent 3 cycles, 1 showed SD, whereas other patient showed PMR on DOTANOC PET/CT, with PR in size. Among the remaining seven patients, 5 showed PMR, whereas the other 2 showed SD. Thus 9/14 patients showed PR, whereas 5 showed SD on metabolic and size criteria. Conclusions: IA PRRT is a safe and efficacious approach for the treatment of liver dominant metastatic neuroendocrine tumors.
RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: Laparoscopic simultaneous resection (LSR) of primary colorectal tumors and synchronous colorectal liver metastases (sCRLM) has been recently performed. This study aimed to evaluate the postoperative outcomes after LSR and determine the risk factors for resection surface-related complications (RSRC), such as postoperative biliary fistula and liver-transection surface abscess. METHODS: Between 2009 and 2022, consecutive patients with sCRLM who underwent LSR were included. We retrospectively analyzed clinicopathological data, including intraoperative factors and postoperative outcomes. The difficulty level of all liver resections was classified according to the IWATE difficulty scoring system (DSS). We then performed univariate and multivariate analyses to identify the risk factors for RSRC. RESULTS: Of the 112 patients, 94 (83.9%) underwent partial hepatectomy and colorectal surgery. The median DSS score was 5 points (1-11), with 12 (10.7%) patients scoring ≥ 7 points. Postoperative complications were observed in 41 (36.6%) patients, of whom 16 (14.3%) experienced severe complications classified as Clavien-Dindo grade IIIa or higher. There was no postoperative mortality. The most common complication was RSRC (19 patients, 17.0%). Multivariate analysis identified American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) classification ≥ 3 [odds ratio (OR) 10.3, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.37-77.8; P = 0.023], DSS score ≥ 7 points (OR 5.08, 95% CI 1.17-20.0; P = 0.030), and right-sided colectomy (OR 4.67, 95% CI 1.46-15.0; P = 0.009) as independent risk factors for RSRC. Postoperative hospital stays were significantly longer for patients with RSRC than for those without RSRC (22 days vs. 11 days; P < 0.001). CONCLUSION: Short-term outcomes of LSR for patients with sCRLM were acceptable in an experienced center. RSRC was the most common complication, and high-difficulty hepatectomy, right-sided colectomy, and ASA classification ≥ 3 were independent risk factors for RSRC.
RESUMEN
PURPOSE: To characterize the response and survival outcomes of yttrium-90 transarterial radioembolization (90Y-TARE) for unresectable, liver-dominant metastases from primary neoplasms other than colorectal carcinoma. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This study included 1474 patients enrolled in the RESiN registry who received resin 90Y-TARE as part of their oncologic management for unresectable primary or secondary liver tumors (NCT02685631). 33% (481/1474) were treated for liver metastases of non-colorectal origin (m-nonCRC), compared to 34% (497/1474) treated for colorectal liver metastases (mCRC) and 34% (496/1474) treated for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Treatment response and cancer survival probabilities were computed and compared for each primary cancer type. The Kaplan-Meier method and log-rank test were used to compare survival outcomes. RESULTS: Radiological responses were observed in 12 unique cancer types, mostly heavily pre-treated malignancies refractory to multiple lines of systemic therapies. The overall use of resin 90Y-TARE in m-nonCRC resulted in better treatment outcomes in terms of duration of response, progression free survival, time to progression and overall survival (P = 0.04, P = 0.02, P = 0.01, P = 0.04). Analyses of cancer cell types revealed that metastatic neuroendocrine tumor, sarcoma, and ovarian, renal, prostate, and breast cancers were associated with superior treatment outcomes, whereas worse treatment outcomes were observed in metastatic lung, gastric, pancreatic and esophageal cancers. CONCLUSION: Real-world data demonstrate the use of resin 90Y-TARE in m-nonCRC refractory to standard chemotherapy. For some cell types, this expanded use achieved superior treatment outcomes relative to the reference standard of mCRC, suggesting the need for inquiry into broadened indications for 90Y-TARE.
