5 High level of radioactivity/microsphere reduces embolic load in tumor Importance of minimally embolic effect: - Blood flow stasis reduces radiotherapeutic effect - Deep tumor penetration (small diameter) - Minimizes risk of stasis and reflux - Potential for retreatment and/or alternative liver-directed therapies 1.

28 Radiation Lobectomy Treats liver tumor Biologic test of time Volumetric changes occur 1 month after TheraSphere ; median % FLR reached 45% after 9 months PVE Does not treat liver tumor or reveal tumor biology Hypertrophy rates of 8% 16% after 3 8 weeks in cirrhotic patients 1. Vouche M et al. Hepatology 2014;60: Anaya DA et al. Semin Intervent Radiol 2008;25(2): FLR = future liver remnant

29 Radiation segmentectomy is treatment of tumor(s) confined to 2 segments along an arterial plane -Bridging option for curative intent (OLT/resection) Radiation lobectomy is ipsilateral (e.g., treated lobe) hepatic lobar atrophy coinciding with contralateral (e.g., untreated lobe) lobar hypertrophy -Surgical eligibility is re-assessed following tumor treatment, biologic test of time and volumetric changes

30 Patient Selection The ideal patient for TheraSphere presents with: Minimal comorbidities Liver-only or liver-dominant disease Normal liver function Absence of pretreatment high-risk factors - Non-infiltrative tumor type - <70% bulk disease or tumor nodules that are not too numerous to count - AST/ALT <5 x ULN - Bilirubin <2 mg/dl - Tumor volume <50% and albumin >3 g/dl 1.TheraSphere [US package insert].
