Summary

This study tested two chemotherapy drugs, cisplatin and mitomycin-C, given directly into the liver artery for people with liver cancer that cannot be surgically removed. The goal was to see how long it takes for tumors to grow and to monitor side effects. The study also looked at whether blood and tumor tissue tests could predict how well a person responds to the treatment.
