77 15 months post RFA follow up No residual or recurrent tumour at segment 7 ablation site

78 DISCUSSION Radioembolisation can be safely achieved after PV embolisation Little non-target embolisation risk due to few collaterals TACE is relatively contraindicated in PV thrombosis 1, but radioembolisation is safe (case series) Relatively minimal embolization effect 2 Potential for continued research 1 Llovet JM, Bruix J (2003) Systematic review of randomized trials for unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma: chemoembolization improves survival. Hepatology 37(2): Sato K, Lewandowski RJ, Bui JT et al (2006) Treatment of unresectable primary and metastatic liver cancer with yttrium-90 microspheres (TheraSphere): assessment of hepatic arterial embolization. Cardiovasc Intervent Radiol 29(4):

79 DISCUSSION Radioembolisation offers possibility of tumour down-sizing for subsequent curative therapy Most HCC patients not suited for conventional curative therapy 3 Radio-embolisation + RFA a potentially curative treatment option for a non-surgical candidate Patient remained disease-free 15 months post-rfa 3 Raoul JL, Sangro B, Forner A et al (2011) Evolving strategies for the management of intermediate-stage hepatocellular carcinoma: available evidence and expert opinion on the use of transarterial chemoembolization. Cancer Treat Rev 7(3):

80 DISCUSSION Is ctace/ DC Bead therapy feasible in portal vein thrombosis? Yes No Is ctace/ DC Bead therapy feasible after portal vein embolization? Yes No

81 TACE PRIOR TO PVE Theoretical benefits: More cirrhotic liver needed for safe resection Cirrhotic liver does not regenerate as much/ as fast Inflammatory response greater hypertrophy HCC derives blood supply from arterial tree Hepatic artery buffer response may lead to increased tumor growth Arterioportal shunts within HCC can decrease effect of PVE

82 TACE PRIOR TO PVE P=0.022

83 TAE PRIOR TO PVE Yoo et al 2011 n=135 patients 71 TAE+ PVE (av. 1.2 mo after TAE) 64 PVE only Higher mean increase in FLR 7.3% vs 5.8% (p=0.035) Recurrence free survival at 5 years: 61% vs 38% Yoo H et al Ann Surg Onc 2011; 18:

85 HEPATIC EMBOLIZATION AFTER PVE Inadequate FLR hypertrophy Hepatic artery embolization Adds component of inflammation and necrosis Nagino et al 2000 Two cases of cholangioca Negligible FLR hypertrophy after PVE TAE done for 50% of intended resection area Outcome: Liver abscess requiring drainage (n=1) Prolonged abnormal LFT. Returned to baseline after 2 weeks.

87 SIRT FOR FLR HYPERTROPHY Vouche M, Salem R et al J Hepatol 2013 N=83 HCC (n=67), CholangioCA (n=8), met CRC (n=8) FLR hypertrophy noted at 1 month Median FLR hypertrophy of 45% after 9 months Right lobectomy HCC (HCC n=3, 4%), (CRC n=1), (Cholangio n=1). Transplant HCC (n=6, 9%)

88 CONCLUSION Multi-modality therapy for HCC is feasible/ ideal in intermediate stage HCC PVE for borderline resection candidates Combination therapy in PVE should be explored Consensus strategies for management of disease progression after PVE are needed
