Summary
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so
they stop growing or die. Cryosurgery kills cancer cells by freezing them. Combining more
than one chemotherapy drug with cryosurgery and giving drugs in different ways may kill more
tumor cells.
PURPOSE: Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of intrahepatic and intravenous combination
chemotherapy with or without cryosurgery in treating unresectable liver metastases from
colorectal cancer.
