Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of Holmium-166 (Ho-166) transarterial radioembolization (TARE) for treating patients with locally advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), a common type of liver cancer. HCC is often linked to conditions like liver cirrhosis and viral hepatitis, with a poor prognosis for advanced stages. TARE involves delivering radioactive particles directly to liver tumors, sparing healthy tissue and providing targeted radiation. This study will include patients diagnosed with HCC who have received Holmium-166 TARE treatment between January 2010 and December 2024. Researchers will look at patient and tumor characteristics, side effects, how well the treatment works, and survival outcomes. The goal is to determine whether Holmium-166 TARE is a safe and effective treatment option for people with locally advanced HCC. The findings will help doctors better understand how this therapy can be used to treat liver cancer and whether it can improve survival rates for patients with this challenging disease.
