No results posted yet for this study

Summary

To determine the maximum tolerated radiation dose with concurrent sorafenib for unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma that has not responded to transarterial chemoembolization.

Conditions

Interventions

DRUG

Sorafenib

Sorafenib 400 mg PO bid will be started two weeks prior to initiation of radiation therapy (RT) and continue until the end of protocol specified radiation dose.

RADIATION

Conventional fractionation (2 Gy per day) external beam radiation therapy

Patients will be stratified by the maximum diameter of HCC in any plane (≤10 cm or \>10 cm) based on post-TACE, contrast enhanced MRI or CT. If only 1 lesion is present, the maximum diameter of that lesion in any plane determines stratification. If \>1 but ≤3 lesions are present, the sum of the maximum diameter in any plane of all the lesions determines stratification. The MTD will be determined utilizing a standard 3 + 3 dose escalation scheme (4 Gy increase per bin). For lesions ≤10 cm, the starting RT dose bin will be 42 Gy and escalate to a pre-determined maximum of 62 Gy if no DLT's are experienced. For lesions \>10 cm, the starting RT dose bin will be 40 Gy and escalate to a pre-determined maximum of 52 Gy if no DLT's are experienced.
