Capecitabine metronomic chemotherapy for metastatic colorectal cancer patients reaching NED: A protocol for a prospective, randomized, controlled trial
INTRODUCTION: An increasing number of patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) have achieved no evidence of diseases (NED) status after surgery or other treatments. However, the latest guidelines for colorectal cancer do not recommend an appropriate treatment for patients with mCRC who achieve NED status. Capecitabine metronomic chemotherapy has the advantages of significant efficacy and… →
