Purpose: To determine overall survival (OS), best response, and toxicities in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) previously treated with chemoembolization (TACE+) or yttrium-90 resin transarterial radioembolization (TARE) compared with those of TACE-naïve (T-N) participants.

Materials And Methods: In this prospective, observational study, 262 adult participants with HCC were divided into TACE+ (n = 93, 35%) or T-N (n = 169, 65%) groups, included from 36 centers in the United States. Overall survival (OS) was assessed using Kaplan-Meier analysis from the date of TARE.

Background: To evaluate overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS) and toxicity after resin Yttrium-90 (Y-90) radioembolization in Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer B (BCLC B) hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients using the Bolondi subgroup classification.

Methods: A total of 144 BCLC B patients were treated between 2015-2020. Patients were broken into 4 subgroups by tumor burden/liver function tests with 54, 59, 8 and 23 in subgroups 1, 2, 3 and 4.

Purpose: To report outcomes in patients with intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma treated with yttrium-90 resin microspheres (transarterial radioembolization [TARE]) from a multicenter, prospective observational registry.

Materials And Methods: Ninety-five patients (median age, 67 years [interquartile range {IQR}, 59-74]; 50 men) were treated in 27 centers between July 2015 and August 2020. Baseline demographic characteristics included imaging findings, performance status, and previous systemic or locoregional treatments.

Introduction: National Comprehensive Cancer Network HCC guidelines recommend Y90 to treat BCLC-C patients only in select cases given the development of systemic regimens. We sought to identify ideal candidates for Y90 by assessing survival and toxicities in this patient group.

Materials And Methods: The Radiation-Emitting Selective Internal radiation spheres in Non-resectable tumor registry is a prospective observational study (NCT: 02,685,631).

Background Patients with unresectable, chemorefractory hepatic metastases from colorectal cancer have considerable mortality. The role of transarterial radioembolization (TARE) with yttrium 90 (Y) microspheres is not defined because most reports are from a single center with limited patient numbers. Purpose To report outcomes in participants with colorectal cancer metastases treated with resin Y microspheres from a prospective multicenter observational registry.

Background: The goal of this study was to evaluate efficacy and safety of 90Y radioembolization for neuroendocrine liver metastases (NELM) in a multicenter registry.

Methods: One hundred-seventy patients with NELM were enrolled in the registry (NCT02685631). Prior treatments included hepatic resection (n = 23, 14%), arterial therapy (n = 62, 36%), octreotide (n = 119, 83%), cytotoxic chemotherapy (n = 58, 41%), biologic therapy (n = 49, 33%) and immunotherapy (n = 10, 6%).
