There have been remarkable advances in the treatment of metastatic colorectal cancer over the past 20 years, chiefly achieved by the development of new active drugs and establishment of effective systemic therapy regimens. Multidisciplinary care of resectable liver disease with use of perioperative systemic therapy and superior liver resection has resulted in prolonged survival of select patients. Median overall survival has significantly improved with the modern multiagent regimens. This article reviews recent high-quality randomized clinical trials that were conducted to address optimal treatment of advanced and metastatic colorectal carcinoma, mainly focused on initially inoperable metastatic disease.
