Association of Conformational High-dose Radiotherapy and of Hyperselective Transarterial Chemoembolization in the Treatment of Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Phase 2
Completed
Conditions
Hepatocellular Carcinoma
Registration Number
NCT01300143
Lead Sponsor
Nantes University Hospital
Brief Summary

Indication : Hepatocellular carcinoma, maximum size 9 cm, with single or multiple nodes whose total tumor mass can technically be irradiated, non-resectable, and not a candidate for percutaneous therapy with recommended treatment via hyperselective transarterial chemoembolisation (TACE).

Detailed Description

: Phase II controlled randomized trial, multicenter, comparing the benefit of additive conformational radiotherapy after therapy with hyperselective chemoembolisation (TACE) with treatment using three TACE treatments (standard of care).
