First seen Feb 06, 2026 · Last updated May 18, 2026 · Updated 14 times

Summary

This study looked at whether a Medtronic pump and Codman catheter could safely deliver chemotherapy directly to the liver in 35 people with colorectal cancer that spread to the liver or bile duct cancer. The main goal was to check safety, like liver side effects and need for stent replacements. The approach aims to control disease by targeting the liver with high-dose chemo while reducing body-wide side effects.
