Summary

TACE is frequently offered to patients with baseline hepatic dysfunction with the purpose of diminishing hepatic tumor burden while patients await transplantation. Without this therapeutic measure, disease may progress beyond UNOS T2 criteria required for organ allocation.

The purpose of the study is to determine whether transarterial chemoembolization using doxorubicin-eluting beads (DEB-TACE) can be used safely and effectively to treat patients with liver-only hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and baseline hepatic dysfunction.

DEVICE

LC Bead

Doxorubicin Eluting Bead Transarterial Chemoembolization (DEB-TACE): Doxorubicin-loaded LC Beads® are administered via a co-axially placed commercially available hepatic artery catheter into hepatic arteries targeted for treatment. Procedure is performed under direct fluoroscopic visualization until stasis of arterial flow is achieved or until a total of 4 ml of microspheres have been administered, whichever occurs first.
