If urine dipstick is greater than or equal to 2+, 24-hour urine must demonstrate less than or equal to 1 g of protein in 24 hours for patient to be eligible. - Pregnancy or lactation. - Positive serum pregnancy test within 7 days of starting study treatment in pre-menopausal women and women < 2 years after the onset of menopause. Note: a negative test has to be reconfirmed by a urine test, should the 7-day window be exceeded. - Fertile women (< 2 years after last menstruation) and men of childbearing potential unwilling or unable to use effective means of contraception (oral contraceptives, intrauterine contraceptive device, barrier method of contraception in conjunction with spermicidal jelly or surgically sterile).

E.5 End points |
E.5.1 | Primary end point(s) |
The primary study endpoint is the achieved R0 resection rate in those patients rendered resectable after/during first line chemotherapy. Patients who achieved successful complete removal of their metastatic lesions will be included in this descriptive analysis.
