Study Summary

This phase II trial studies how well chemotherapy and/or metastasectomy work in treating patients with colorectal adenocarcinoma that has spread to the lungs (metastases). Drugs used in chemotherapy work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Metastasectomy is a surgical procedure that removes tumors formed from cells that have spread from other places in the body. It is not yet known if chemotherapy and metastasectomy together works better in treating patients with metastatic colorectal adenocarcinoma with lung metastases.

Primary Outcome

The primary objective for the low risk group is to evaluate the efficacy of chemotherapy plus surgical resection versus surgical resection alone measured by recurrence-free survival (RFS). The event includes recurrence and death due to any cause. Patients will be stratified at randomization according to three variables: age (age \>= 60 years vs age \< 60 years), RAS mutation status (mutant vs wild type), and location of primary tumor within colon/rectum (right/cecum/ascending colon/hepatic flexu
