Response of Hepatic Tumors to Radioembolization
- Conditions
- Hepatocellular CarcinomaLiver MetastasisIntrahepatic Cholangiocarcinoma
- Interventions
- Radiation: Injection of Ytttrium-90 microspheres into the hepatic artery
- Registration Number
- NCT01775280
- Lead Sponsor
- University of Zurich
- Brief Summary
The study enrolls patients with non-resectable or borderline resectable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), intraheaptic choalngiocarcinoma (IHCC) or colorectal cancer metastasis. Patients are not a candidates for liver transplantation and have only limited extrahepatic disease. All patients are treated with radioembolization. Primary endpoint is the percentage of patients that can be downstaged to resectability.
Secondary endpoints are radiologic response to radioembolization,tissue response to radiomembolization and systemic immune response and intra-tumoral T-cell response to radioembolization.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Primary endpoint ist the percentage of patients that can be downstaged to resectability 2012 to 2015
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Histologic response to radioembolization 2012 to 2015 Resected specimen will be examined for changes related to radioembolization like endothelial damage, necrosis, fibrosis
Immunological response to radioembolization 2012 to 2015 Circulating T-cells and tissue based T-cells will be examined for their response to tumor antigens, clonal proliferation.
Serologic response to tumor antigens will be examined
