Study Summary

This study will combine two therapies to treat patients with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma; sorafenib, and drug eluting beads delivered intra-arterially. The purpose of the study is to establish the safety and the effectiveness of the combination therapy. The investigators hypothesize that the combination of the two therapies will not result in greater toxicities to patients than that expected for either therapy given alone.

Primary Outcome

Treatment toxicities assessed by CTCAE v3.0 were stratified by cycle - patients on Cycle 1, and patients on Cycles 2-5 or more. 50 patients were reviewed for toxicities for Cycle 1, and all 50 patients experienced at least one adverse event during this time period.

Interventions

  • DRUG sorafenib
  • PROCEDURE LC Bead-TACE
