Study Summary

A research study to determine the safety, efficacy, and tolerability of Therasphere® (also known as Y-90, or Y-90 Therasphere) combined with or without sorafenib (Nexavar®), in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC, or liver cancer), awaiting liver transplantation.

Primary Outcome

Subjects randomized to receive Sorafenib take the drug for 2 weeks before treatment with Y90. They have imaging (CT/MRI) 2 weeks after starting Sorafenib then are treated. Post-treatment patients have blood drawn and adverse event evaluation at 2 weeks, 4 weeks, 6 weeks, and then every 6 weeks up to 1 year or time of transplant. Repeat imaging is done at 4 weeks, and then every 3 months post-treatment. Subjects not receiving Sorafenib are treated with Y90 and then are evaluated post-treatment th
