Brief Summary
The goal of this multicentre clinical pilot study is to investigate the feasibility of the addition of Ho-166 radioembolization to chemotherapy in patients with liver metastastic breast cancer. Participants will receive a mapping angiography and Ho-166 radioembolization. Chemotherapy will be stopped 2-5 prior to radioembolization and continuation of chemotherapy will be evaluated at 2 weeks post-radioembolization.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Feasibility
The percentage of patients were radioembolization and systemic chemotherapy is safely feasible. Safety is defined as percentage of 90 day post-radioembolization (CTCAE/SIR grade 3 or higher) which lead discontinuation of the current systemic chemotherapy. Time to re-start chemotherapy after intervention in days will be collected.
Up to 3 months after intervention
Secondary Outcomes (3)
Lesion- and patient-based response
Up to 3 months after intervention
Overall toxicity associated with study intervention
Up to 3 months after intervention
Quality of Life during study
From start inclusion to 3 months after intervention
Study Arms (1)
Ho-166 radioembolization
EXPERIMENTALPatients will undergo standard procedures for holmium radioembolization
Interventions
The intervention comprises two steps. Initially, the patient will undergo mapping angiography and a Ho-166 scout dose. If deemed eligible, the patient will proceed to 166-Ho radioembolization.
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Women \>18 years
- Patients with hormone positive and HER2 negative liver metastatic breast cancer
- No extra-hepatic disease progression at evaluation of at least second line systemic chemotherapy
- Suitable for TARE evaluated after the mapping angiography
- Measurable target tumors in the liver according to RECIST 1.1
- Liver tumor burden \<50 %
- ECOG performance score 0 to 1
- Laboratory parameters: neutrophils \>1000/μL; thrombocyte count \>1000000 μL; eGFR \>45/mL/min/1.73 m2; albumin \> 3.0 g/dl, bilirubin \< 1.5x ULN (unless Gilbert syndrome); aminotransferase (ALAT/ASAT) \<3.0 ULN
- Able to read Dutch
You may not qualify if:
- Life expectancy ≤3 months
- Patient eligible for other curative local liver therapy (ea. surgery, ablation)
- Brain, pleural, peritoneal or extensive extra-hepatic visceral metastases
- Other life-threatening disease (i.e. Dialysis, unresolved diarrhea, serious unresolved infections (HIV, HBV, HCV etc.))
- Contraindication for angiography or MRI
- Significant toxicities due to prior cancer therapy that have not resolved before the initiation of the study, if the investigator determines that the continuing complication will compromise the safe treatment of the patient
- Prior or planned embolic intra-arterial liver directed therapy (TACE, TAE, TARE)
- Prior or planned external or internal radiation therapy of the liver
- Cirrhosis or portal hypertension
- Main portal vein thrombosis
- Intervention for, or compromise of, the Ampulla of Vater
- Ascites (except minor focal ascites)
- Baseline use of analgesics for abdominal pain
- Pregnancy (Women at childbearing potential need at least one form of birth control) and breastfeeding
- Flow to extra hepatic vessels not correctable by reposition or embolization
- +2 more criteria
