Summary

The primary purpose of the study is to evaluate the pharmacokinetic profile, safety, and efficacy of LifePearl™ microspheres loaded with Doxorubicin in the treatment of unresectable HCC.

Conditions

Interventions

DEVICE

Chemoembolization

First, an angiography of the celiac trunk, superior mesenteric artery and hepatic artery will be obtained by using a peripheral arterial approach. Arterial embolization will be performed through catheterization of intrahepatic arteries, as selectively as possible (tumor feeders, subsegmental, segmental). The size of the microcatheter must be consistent with the size of LifePearl beads used. Microspheres of 200 µm will be be used. They will be loaded with the appropriate dose of doxorubicin injectable solution, mixed with the contrast media and distributed according to the location of the HCC lesions. The endpoint of the procedure will be achieved end when stasis of the feeders is achieved and confirmed with angiography of the whole liver.

OTHER

Pharmacokinetics

Pharmacokinetic analysis will be performed in cohort I and II after the first treatment only. In addition to blood samples taken for biochemistry and haematology analysis, blood will be taken for pharmacokinetic assessment: Whole venous blood samples (6 ml in 2 tubes) will be taken from peripheral blood into ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) tubes prior to and at 5mins, 20mins, 40mins, 1h, 2h, 6h, 24h, 48h and 7 days after the procedure, and if needed (i.e. value at d7 is detectable) at 1 month (for safety assessment visit) either during hospital stay or in the outpatient clinic.
