TI  - Elevated Angiogenic Factor Levels After Transarterial
Radioembolization for Colorectal Cancer Liver Metastases May
Predict a Poor Prognosis
AB  - Objectives: To analyze the change in circulating angiogenic factor levels after transarterial radioembolization (TARE) for colorectal cancer liver
metastases (CRCLMs) and its prognostic significance.
Methods: Blood samples immediately before TARE and on 1 day, 1 week and 6 weeks after were collected for angiogenic factor analysis in 23
patients.
Results: Patients with elevated serum basic fibroblast growth factor and platelet-derived growth factor levels in the 1st week and vascular
endothelial growth factor (VEGF) levels in the 6th week after TARE had significantly shorter median overall survival (OS) times.
Conclusion: Some early increases in serum angiogenic factor levels and in serum VEGF in the 6th week after TARE for CRCLMs are related to short
OS and progression-free survival
