This study is looking at different ways doctors perform liver transplants for people whose colorectal cancer has spread to their liver (colorectal cancer liver metastases or CRLM). The goal is to compare the results of various standard transplant methods, such as using a living or deceased donor, or a whole or split liver. Researchers will observe how patients recover in the hospital and how long they survive after the transplant, up to one year. They will also collect blood samples for future research. You may be able to join if you are 18 or older, are listed for a liver transplant at Northwestern due to CRLM, and can give your own informed consent. This is an observational study, meaning doctors are watching and comparing existing treatments, not testing new ones.
