Abstract

Background: Liver transplantation remains the best curation option in patients with Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer (BCLC) stage A hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) not amendable to surgical resection or ablation. During the mandatory 6-month waiting period, patients are often bridged to transplantation using liver-directed therapy. 90Yttrium (90Y) has been used across BCLC stages from A-C. Results from the LEGACY trial demonstrated high objective response rates (ORR) using 90Y in unresectable, solitary HCC. In this study, we investigated ORR and outcomes for BCLC-A HCC patients receiving 90Y as a bridge to liver transplantation.
