Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Stereotactic radiation therapy (either photon or proton) can be delivered to the liver with a less than 10% 3-month incidence of Grade 4 study related toxicity.Up to 90 days after end of radiation therapy
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Measure the overall survival rates associated with using SBRT in patients with unresectable HCC and IHC.Baseline to time of death
Measure the response rates associated with using SBRT in patients with resectable HCC and IHCBaseline to the first date of recurrance or progressive disease
Measure the late toxicity associated with using stereotactic radiation therapy in patients with unresectable HCC and IHC.Up to 60 days after end of radiation therapy
Measure the local recurrence rates associated with using SBRT in patients with unresectable HCC and IHC.Time of treatment until recurrance or progressive disease as measured by CT/MR from baseline to recurrance or progressive disease
