Contra-indications to SIRT RELATIVE CONTRA-INDICATIONS 1. Inadequate haematological, renal and hepatic function as follows: Platelets < 80,000/μL Haemoglobin < 9.5 g/dl Total bilirubin < 2.0 mg/dl INR > 2 ALP >5 x institutional upper limit of normal AST and ALT > 5 x institutional upper limit of normal Creatinine 2.0 mg/dl 2. Life expectancy of at least 3 months without any active treatment. 3. Have had systemic chemotherapy for HCC within the last 3 months 4. Metastatic disease. In this context local-regional lymph nodes measuring > 2 cm in greatest diameter or lung nodules measuring > than 1 cm - Sorafenib must be added Pierce Chow FRCS, PhD 21
Contra-indications to SIRT ABSOLUTE CONTRA-INDICATIONS 1. Has clinical ascites (in spite of optimal diuretic treatment) or any other clinical signs of liver failure, on physical examination. 2. i. If the Body Surface Area (BSA) method is used for dose calculation and the percentage lung shunting exceeds 20% of the hepatic artery blood flow, as determined by TC-99 MAA scan. In the event that the lung shunt study indicates that pulmonary shunt exceeds 20%, the partition model (ii below) may be used to adjust the prescribed activity so that radiation absorbed dose to the lungs does not exceed 20 Gy. 3. ii. Partition model (pre-assessment dosimetry) calculations based on Tc-99m MAA and CT scans show that any of the following radiation dose limits are exceeded: 1. radiation absorbed dose to the lungs > 20Gy 2. radiation absorbed dose to cirrhotic liver > 50Gy 3. radiation absorbed dose to non-cirrhotic liver > 70Gy 4. Pre-assessment angiogram and Tc-99 MAA scan that demonstrates significant and un-correctable activity in the stomach, pancreas or bowel. 5. Complete main portal vein thrombosis. 6. Hepatic arterial anatomy not suitable for implantation of SIR-Spheres, as assessed by hepatic angiogram. Pierce Chow FRCS, PhD 22
