Leucovorin, Fluorouracil, Cetuximab, and Oxaliplatin in Treating Patients With Stage IV Colorectal Cancer and Liver Metastases That Cannot Be Removed by Surgery


ABSTRACT: RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as leucovorin, fluorouracil, and oxaliplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Monoclonal antibodies, such as cetuximab, can block tumor growth in different ways. Some block the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Others find tumor cells and help kill them or carry tumor-killing substances to them. Giving more than one drug (combination chemotherapy) and giving them together with cetuximab may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well giving leucovorin together with fluorouracil, cetuximab, and oxaliplatin works in treating patients with stage IV colorectal cancer and liver metastases that cannot be removed by surgery.
