Summary

Patients with hepatocellular carcinoma often die from intrahepatic disease since current treatment options are generally limited. Local treatment using holmium radioembolization could offer an effective treatment and a more personal approach than yttrium radioembolization (standard-of-care) as holmium has more imaging options.

DEVICE

Holmium-166 radioembolization

An intra-arterial radioembolization procedure will be performed. The hepatic artery catheter is inserted via the femoral or radial artery under x-ray guidance by a trained interventional radiologist. The radiologist must repeatedly check the position of the catheter during the procedure to ensure it remains correctly sited and that reflux of the QuiremSpheres® into other organs does not occur. This is performed by injecting contrast medium. At the conclusion of the procedure, the catheter is removed.
