Rawnoc---wouldn't that mean that T-dox extended PFS by 100% vs. RFA alone for the tumor sizes involved.


Results
Eighty-seven patients were enrolled in the study; 47%
male and 53% female. The average age was 67 years
(range 3792). Diagnoses are listed in Table I. The
most common indications for liver-directed therapeutic
ablation were colorectal metastases (38%) and
HCC (26%).
There were 94 ablation procedures for 224 tumors.
Forty-two ablations (45%) were performed open, 7
(7%) laparoscopically, and 45 (48%) percutaneously.
The average tumor size was 3.6 cm(range 0.59.0 cm).
Twenty-two lesions were4 cm. Mean single antenna
ablation volumes were 10.0 ml (range 7.814.0 ml),
and clustered antennae ablation volumes were 50.5 ml
(range 21.1146.5 ml). Outcome variables were measured
with a mean follow-up of 19 months.
Unexpected residual disease was found in five
patients. Expected residual disease was found in three
patients. Local recurrence at ablation sites occurred in
6 (2.7%) tumors and regional recurrence was noted in
37 (43%)
