EXPERIMENTALInterventions
TheraSphere are microspheres with y-90 a radioactive material that will be injected into the liver through a blood vessel.
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- yrs of age or older
- Diagnosis of Hepatocellular Carcinoma
- Portal Vein Thrombosis
- ECOG performance \< 2
- \>4 weeks since prior radiation, surgery or chemotherapy.
- Life expectancy \> 3 months
- Able to provide written informed consent process in accordance with institutional review boards guidelines.
You may not qualify if:
- Contraindications to angiography and selective visceral catheterization.
- Evidence of blood flow to the lung from the liver greater than 16.5 mCi
- Evidence of any detectable Tc-99m MAA flow to the stomach or duodenum, after application of established angiographic techniques to stop or mitigate such flow.
- Significant extrahepatic disease.
- Severe liver disfunction of pulmonary insufficiency.
- Active uncontrolled infection.
- Significant underlying medical or psychiatric illness.
- Pregnancy. Patients will be excluded if they have pre-existing diarrhea/illness, or if they have a co-morbid disease or condition that would preclude safe delivery of TheraSphere treatment and place the patient at undue risk.
