Study Summary

This study involves the combined use of the FDA approved device, LC Bead and the FDA approved drug, Doxorubicin for the treatment of primary hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The current indication of the LC Bead is for the embolization of hypervascular tumors and arteriovenous malformations. The study is designed to establish if drug eluting beads are more effective and less toxic than standard chemoembolization treatment.

Primary Outcome

4-6 weeks after initial treatment, follow-up imaging will be obtained. With positive response to treatment, follow-up imaging will be obtained every 12 weeks. If a new tumor develops or if local progression of the treated malignancy occurs, the patient may be retreated with LC Beads 4-6 weeks after the first treatment with re-imaging 4-6 weeks following each subsequent treatment.
