Summary

This study tests a treatment called Y-90 radioembolization given before liver surgery for people with colorectal cancer that has spread to the liver. The goal is to shrink tumors on the right side of the liver and help the left side grow larger so surgery can be safer and more effective. About 50 adults whose liver is too small for safe surgery will take part. The study focuses on whether this approach is safe and feasible.
