About this trial

The RESOLVE trial, an open-label, single-arm, multi-center study, aims to assess the efficacy and safety of ablative radioembolization using TheraSphere Yttrium-90 microspheres. This trial specifically targets patients diagnosed with hepatocellular carcinoma accompanied by localized portal vein tumor thrombosis (Vp1-Vp3) and who maintain good liver function.

Eligibility criteria

Qualifiers

Adults aged 18 and over

Patients diagnosed with unilobar hepatocellular carcinoma, either histologically and/or radiologically (LI-RADS 4 or 5)

Patients with at least one measurable lesion greater than 10 mm on dynamic contrast-enhanced CT or MRI

Patients with localized portal vein invasion limited in one lobe (Vp1-3) on dynamic contrast-enhanced CT or MRI

Disqualifiers

Patients unsuitable for ablative radioembolization as per the pre-test with macro-aggregated albumin labeled with technetium-99 (99mTc-MAA) for radioembolization.

Cases where, according to multi-compartment Medical Internal Radiation Dose method, delivering 205 Gy of radiation to the tumor exceeds an estimated lung dose of 25 Gy.

Cases with severe hepatic artery-portal vein shunting leading to expected irradiation of the non-tumorous opposite lobe.

Patients whose volume of non-tumorous liver not included in the treatment area is less than 30% of the total non-tumorous liver volume.
