This is a multicentric randomized parallel group open trial comparing 5-year survival of chemotherapy followed by LT (Group LT+C) versus chemotherapy alone (Group C) in patients with confirmed unresectable liver-only metastases, well controlled by chemotherapy (no progression) and extensively explored by modern imaging techniques. The primary objective of the trial is to validate in a large multicentric cohort of selected patients the possibility to obtain at least 50% 5-years survival with LT combined to chemotherapy compared to around 10% with chemotherapy alone.
