Summary

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most common cancer worldwide. Surgical resection is one of the primary treatment options for CRC; however, postoperative recurrence remains a significant clinical challenge for both the medical community and patients. Postoperative chemotherapy, as an important adjuvant therapy, is widely used in CRC patients aiming to reduce the risk of recurrence. Despite extensive research on the efficacy of postoperative chemotherapy in CRC, the mechanisms of postoperative recurrence, predictive factors, and strategies to enhance chemotherapy effectiveness remain unclear. For colorectal cancer patients who have achieved NED (No Evidence of Disease), the decision to either reinitiate or change the systemic chemotherapy regimen for newly developed pulmonary oligometastases remains controversial. Local treatment options for diagnosing oligometastases include surgery, radiotherapy, and radiofrequency ablation. However, whether systemic treatment should be added after local treatment in patients who have achieved NED remains uncertain , and this issue requires urgent resolution.

Interventions

COMBINATION_PRODUCT

Oligometastasis Treatment

Oligometastatic Radiotherapy Group: Patients will receive radiotherapy to lung lesions, with the lung metastases outlined as the Gross Tumor Volume (GTV). The prescribed dose will be based on a BED (Biologically Effective Dose) of 72-100 Gy, using either conventional split, macrodissected, or SBRT (Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy) at the investigator's discretion. No systemic therapy will be administered. Oligometastatic Radiofrequency Ablation Group: For lesions suitable for radiofrequency ablation, this will be performed in consultation with the Department of Interventional Medicine, considering patient and family preferences. Systemic therapy will not be given. Oligometastatic Surgery Group: For lesions suitable for surgical resection, patients will undergo surgery after consultation with the Department of Surgery. No systemic therapy will be performed.
