Study & Design

Study Type
INTERVENTIONAL
Study Design
SINGLE_GROUP
Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Area Under the Curve (AUC)1 day

The trapezoidal rule will be used to calculate the area under the curve over 24 hours

Maximum Observed Plasma Concentration (Cmax)2 days

Maximum observed plasma concentrations of Irinotecan and its active metabolite SN38

Time to reach Cmax (Tmax)2 days

Tmax will be estimated directly from concentration-time data

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod

Overall Survival12 months
Adverse Events (AE) (grade ≥3) and Serious AEs related with study treatment up to 30 days post initial treatment1 month
Response rate3 months

Response rate (mRECIST criteria) 3 months after the first treatment

Technical success - treatment delivery1 day

Ability to deliver ≥75% of the planned dose during the first chemoembolization

Technical success - total dose delivered6 weeks

Sum of all doses delivered during the course of the study
