Radioembolization for hepatocellular carcinoma using TheraSphere®
Background/Aim: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most common primary malignancy of the liver. Radioembolization with yttrium-90 (Y90) microspheres is a new concept in radiation therapy for HCC.

Predictors of response to radio-embolization (TheraSphere®) treatment of neuroendocrine liver metastasis [PDF]
Neuroendocrine tumours (NET) frequently metastasize to the liver. NET liver metastasis has been shown to respond to Yttrium-90 microspheres therapy. The aims of the present study were to define factors that predict the response to radio-embolization in patients with NET liver metastases.From January 2006 until March 2009, all patients with NET liver ...

This retrospective study was undertaken to obtain information regarding the survival and toxicities after Yttrium-90 microspheres treatment in patients with primary liver malignancies. Baseline, treatment, and follow-up data were collected and analyzed for 21 patients treated with Yttrium-90 microspheres. Survival analysis was then performed.

Effectiveness and safety of selective internal radiation therapy using yttrium-90 glass microspheres for hepatocellular carcinoma: real-world results from the multi-center prospective PROACTIF cohort of 989 patientsResearch in context [PDF]
Summary: Background: Selective Internal Radiation Therapy with yttrium-90 (Y90) has been used for decades, yet guideline recommendations remain inconsistent. High-quality real-world data is needed to guide practice.

Hepatic arterial 90Yttrium glass microspheres (Therasphere) for unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma: Interim safety and survival data on 65 patients [PDF]
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) generally arises in a cirrhotic liver and, in most cases, is multifocal and bilobar. Although trans-hepatic artery chemoembolization (TACE) can be highly affective in shrinking tumors, it is limited by virtue of the damage that it can cause to the liver that is already damaged by chronic disease.
