Study Summary

This study will compare stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) to trans-arterial chemoembolization (TACE) as a bridging strategy for patients with HCC undergoing orthotopic liver transplantation. We propose that SBRT will be associated with longer time intervals between initial treatment and the need for retreatment, compared to TACE, as a "bridge" to orthotopic liver transplantation.

Primary Outcome

Time from SBRT and TACE intervention to progression was tracked for subject receiving protocol intervention. Progression is defined using Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors Criteria (RECIST v1.0), as a 20% increase in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions, or a measurable increase in a non-target lesion, or the appearance of new lesion.

Interventions

  • RADIATION Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy (SBRT)
  • PROCEDURE Trans-Arterial Chemoembolization (TACE)
  • DRUG Doxorubin
