Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine whether the Litx™ system is safe and effective in combination with chemotherapy in the treatment of liver metastasis arising from colorectal cancer. Litx™ is a next-generation photodynamic therapy platform in which the drug, talaporfin sodium (LS11), is activated by light from the light-emitting diode (LED)-based light infusion device, inserted directly into the tumor through the skin prior to treatment.
