NCT ID NCT06944483

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tests whether people with large liver cancer (over 5 cm) can get their entire radioembolization treatment in a single day. Normally, planning scans and treatment are done on separate days. The procedure involves injecting tiny radioactive beads into the liver's blood supply to kill cancer cells. Researchers will check if this one-day approach is safe and works well for 138 participants.

Y90 resin microspheres (SIR-Spheres)

What this could lead to

If successful, this could make treatment for large liver tumors more convenient by completing planning and therapy in one day, potentially reducing hospital visits.

What could go wrong

This is an early registry study with only 138 participants, so results may not apply to all patients. There are risks like radiation exposure to the lungs or liver damage.
