Liver cancer radiation therapy may open door to transplant

This study tests a radiation treatment called SIRT (selective internal radiation therapy) using tiny radioactive beads delivered directly to liver tumors. The goal is to shrink tumors enough so that patients with liver cancer can qualify for a liver transplant or have surgery to remove the cancer. The study will include 78 adults with liver cancer who are not candidates for standard treatments like surgery or heat ablation. Researchers will track how many patients become eligible for transplant or surgery within 6 months of treatment.
