Appendix BContacted Authors

Table D-1List of authors contacted with questions during this review and the question resolution

AuthorResponse from Authors Sufficient for Issue ResolutionQuestion/Resolution
Chua - 20101YesTime from which survival is measured?/Measured from date of RE to date of death or last FU
Albert – 20112NoNeed to determine number of patients received 0 lines of previous systemic chemotherapy/None
Hendlisz – 20103YesNeed to clarify why patients were given further chemotherapy/Chemotherapy given for disease progression. Include study and use time to liver progression statistics.
Meijerink - 20114NoUncertain if patients were refractory to chemotherapy./Study excluded due to small sample size and potential contamination.
Stintzing – 20115YesDid any of the CRC liver mets. Patients refuse treatment?/None of these patients refused treatment
Vautravers-Dewas - 20116NoUncertain about extrahepatic metastases in patients./None
Murthy - 20077NoUncertain about treatment dates for this study/None
Ritz – 20078NoUncertain if patients are refractory/None
Martin – 20119NoDo survival statistics correspond to complete responders alone?/No response but study included and assumed that issue resulted from a typographical error in table creation.
Tsutsumi - 200810NoArticle does not give survival starting point/None
Cianni – 200911YesArticle does not give survival starting point, potential overlap in study populations/Author clarified that this was from time of treatment and that this was not a duplicated patient population.
Hong - 200912NoDiscrepancy in table statistics/none
Lim - 200513YesArticle does not give survival starting point/Author clarified that this was from study treatment.
Fiorentini – 200714NoArticle does not give survival starting point/None
