Abstract
Primary hepatobiliary cancers (PHCs), which mainly include hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and biliary tract cancers (BTCs), are mostly diagnosed in the advanced stage and are not candidates for curative surgery or ablation, resulting in a dismal prognosis. Targeted therapies with or without programmed death receptor 1 (PD-1)/PD-L1 inhibitors have been incorporated into first-line treatments for advanced HCC. Systemic chemotherapy is still the mainstay treatment for advanced BTCs, and combining it with PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors has resulted in prolonged patient survival. Intra-arterial therapies, including trans-arterial chemoembolization, selective internal radiation therapy, and hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy (HAIC), have been explored and used for advanced hepatobiliary cancers for many years with positive results, particularly when combined with systemic treatments. Recently, an increasing number of phase II/III trials have demonstrated the efficacy and safety of HAIC for the treatment of advanced HCC with portal vein tumor thrombosis and/or a large tumor burden, for the neoadjuvant and adjuvant treatment of HCC with high-risk factors, and for treating advanced intrahepatic and perihilar cholangiocarcinoma. However, the techniques and regimens used for HAIC are diverse and differ greatly between various regions and centers worldwide. This review focuses on these diverse techniques and regimens, as well as the updated evidence on HAIC regarding the treatment of PHCs.

Signal enhancement ratio of CE-MRI: a potential biomarker of survival after hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy in biliary tract cancers. Insights Imaging 2022; 13:46. [PMID: 35286496 PMCID: PMC8921414 DOI: 10.1186/s13244-022-01188-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/17/2021] [Accepted: 02/15/2022] [Indexed: 11/10/2022] Open
Abstract
Abstract
Background
The association of contrast-enhanced MRI (CE-MRI) and the overall survival (OS) of biliary tract cancers (BTC) is ambiguous. Thus, the aim of this study is to evaluate the value of signal enhancement ratio (SER) and its early change in CE-MRI as biomarkers of survival after hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy (HAIC) in BTC.
Results
One hundred and two BTC patients treated via HAIC with 3cir-OFF regimen between January 2011 and June 2020 were enrolled in this retrospective study. The median progression-free survival (PFS) and OS were 9.8 months [range 1.5–83.3 months, 95% confidence interval (CI) 7.789–11.811] and 14.2 months (range 1.8–83.3 months, 95% CI: 11.106–17.294), respectively. The cutoff value of SER before HAIC (SER0) was 1.04, and both median PFS and OS in the SER0 ≥ 1.04 group were longer than in the SER0 < 1.04 group (median PFS: 10.5 vs. 8.5 months, p = 0.027; median OS: 23.9 vs. 12.3 months, p < 0.001). The median OS in the ΔSER > 0 group was longer than in the ΔSER < 0 group (17.3 versus 12.8 months, p = 0.029 (ΔSER means the change of SER after two cycles of HAIC). Multivariate analysis showed SER0 (p = 0.029) and HAIC treatment cycle (p = 0.002) were independent predictors of longer survival.
Conclusions
SER in CE-MRI before HAIC (SER0) is a potential biomarker for the prediction of survival after HAIC in advanced BTC.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION In patients with unresectable liver metastases from colorectal cancer (CRCLM), systemic doublet or triplet chemotherapy and targeted therapy is considered a standard first-line treatment. Hepatic arterial infusion of oxaliplatin (HAI-ox) generates a high response rate, but this still needs to be confirmed in a randomized trial. We incorporated HAI-ox in doublet or triplet + targeted therapy to validate its efficacy. AIM The OSCAR study is an ongoing randomized phase III trial comparing FOLFOX + targeted therapy according to RAS status, or FOLFOXIRI + bevacizumab in patients eligible for triplet therapy, with the same regimen but with HAI-ox instead of IV-ox as the first-line treatment for CRCLM. MATERIALS AND METHODS Main eligibility criteria are colorectal cancer, unresectable liver metastasis, no extra-hepatic metastases except pulmonary nodules if ≤3 and <10 mm, ECOG performance status 0 or 1. ENDPOINT The primary endpoint is progression-free survival (PFS). A difference of 4 months for the median PFS in favor of HAI-ox is expected (HR = 0.73). Secondary endpoints include overall survival, overall response rate, secondary liver resection, safety, and quality of life. CONCLUSION This study is planned to include 348 patients to demonstrate the superiority of HAI-ox over systemic oxaliplatin in first-line CRCLM treatment (NCT02885753).

Abstract
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most common cancer worldwide and has a high rate of metastatic disease which is the main cause of CRC-related death. Oligometastatic disease is a clinical condition recently included in ESMO guidelines that can benefit from a more aggressive locoregional approach. This review focuses the attention on colorectal liver metastases (CRLM) and highlights recommendations and therapeutic locoregional strategies drawn from the current literature and consensus conferences. The different percutaneous therapies (radiofrequency ablation, microwave ablation, irreversible electroporation) as well as trans-arterial approaches (chemoembolization and radioembolization) are discussed. Ablation margins, the choice of the imaging guidance as well as characteristics of the different ablation techniques and other technical aspects are analyzed. A specific attention is then paid to the increasing role of biomarkers (in particular molecular profiling) and their role in the selection of the proper treatment for the right patient. In conclusion, in this review an up-to-date state of the art of the application of locoregional treatments on CRLM is provided, highlighting both technical aspects and the role of biomarkers, two sides of the same coin.

Abstract
PURPOSE The aim of this study was to assess the safety and efficacy of hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy (HAIC) with oxaliplatin and 5-fluorouracil for patients with advanced gallbladder cancer (GBC). MATERIALS AND METHODS Twenty-six patients with advanced GBC, who underwent HAIC with oxaliplatin and 5-fluorouracil from January 2012 to July 2019, were enrolled in this retrospective study. The HAIC regimen consisted of infusions of oxaliplatin at 40 mg/m2 for 2 h, followed by 5-fluorouracil at 800 mg/m2 for 22 h on days 1-3 every 3-4 weeks. A maximum of six cycles of HAIC were applied for tumor control patients followed by maintenance with oral capecitabine or S-1. Overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS), tumor response, and adverse events were investigated. RESULTS Six of the 26 patients (23.1%) had failed systemic chemotherapy, 8/26 (30.8%) patients had failed various local therapies, and 9/26 (34.6%) patients had contraindications to systemic chemotherapy. The median OS was 13.5 months, and the median PFS was 10.0 months. The overall response rate was 69.2% (18/26), and disease control rate was 92.3% (24/26). Carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) ≥ 10 U/ml (p = 0.003) and carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA19-9) ≥ 200 U/ml (p = 0.000) were independent risk factors for decreased survival. The most frequent Grade 3 or 4 treatment-related adverse event was liver dysfunction (4, 15.4%). CONCLUSION HAIC with oxaliplatin and 5-fluorouracil is an acceptable and well-tolerated treatment for advanced gallbladder cancer even for patients in whom systemic chemotherapy had failed or is contraindicated. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level 2, Observation Study with Dramatic Effect.

Abstract
Objective The use of hepatic artery infusion (HAI) as a regional therapy against liver metastasis has rarely been reported in gastric cancer. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of HAI oxaliplatin plus oral S-1 chemotherapy in first-line palliative therapy for gastric cancer with multiple liver metastases (GCLM). Methods We reviewed the records of five patients with GCLM who received HAI oxaliplatin (70–80 mg/m2 2 hrs d1,15) administered via a port-catheter system and S-1 with oral (35–40 mg/m2 twice daily for d1-14, 28 days for one cycle). Follow-up examination and efficacy evaluation were executed periodically. Results Until the 4th cycle response evaluation, the local effective rate and control rate were 40% and 80%, respectively; only one patient developed progression. HAI chemotherapy had a better local control against liver metastases (median progression-free survival: hepatic, 8.8 months vs. extrahepatic, 6.2 months), accompanied by less systemic toxicity, decreased tumour markers and symptomatic relief. Conclusion HAI oxaliplatin plus oral S-1 chemotherapy can be considered as a new choice of first-line treatment for GCLM, which is also a good approach for controlling extrahepatic lesions with less adverse events.

Abstract
PURPOSE To compare the efficacy and safety of hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy (HAIC) to transarterial chemoembolization/embolization (TACE/TAE) for the treatment of advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) with major portal vein tumor thrombosis (PVTT). MATERIALS AND METHODS Forty-six patients with advanced HCC with major PVTT who underwent HAIC or TACE/TAE between April 2013 and April 2017 were included. In the HAIC group (n = 22), oxaliplatin (35-40 mg/m2 for 2 h) and 5-fluorouracil (600-800 mg/m2 for 22 h) on days 1-3 every 4 weeks were administered for a maximum of six serial courses. In the TACE/TAE group (n = 24), an emulsion of epirubicin (40-60 mg) and lipiodol was administered followed by particles (cTACE), or particles alone embolization (TAE). Overall survival (OS), tumor response according to mRECIST, progression-free survival (PFS), and adverse events were investigated. RESULTS Median OS was 20.8 months in the HAIC group versus 4.0 months in the TACE/TAE group (P < 0.001; hazard ratio [HR], 0.17). The HAIC group showed higher tumor response rates than the TACE/TAE group (59.1% [13/22] vs. 22.7% [5/22]; P = 0.014) and a longer median PFS (9.6 vs. 1.5 months; P < 0.001; HR, 0.09). The Child-Pugh class (P = 0.007) and treatment method (P = 0.002) were independent risk factors of survival. The most frequent grade 3 or worse treatment-related adverse events were liver dysfunction (2 [9.1%] vs. 5 [20.8%]), hematological abnormalities (1 [4.5%] vs. 2 [8.3%]), and fever (1 [4.5%] vs. 4 [16.7%]). One treatment-related death due to acute liver failure occurred 3 days after TACE treatment. CONCLUSION HAIC may significantly improve OS and provide better tumor control with mild side effects and preserved liver function in patients with advanced HCC with major PVTT compared to TACE/TAE treatment.

Oxaliplatin-Based Intra-arterial Chemotherapy in Colo-Rectal Cancer Liver Metastases: A Review from Pharmacology to Clinical Application. Cancers (Basel) 2019; 11:cancers11020141. [PMID: 30682873 PMCID: PMC6406804 DOI: 10.3390/cancers11020141] [Citation(s) in RCA: 21] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/17/2018] [Revised: 01/18/2019] [Accepted: 01/22/2019] [Indexed: 01/04/2023] Open
Abstract
Liver metastases (LM) are often consequences of colo-rectal cancer (CRC)and the majority of patients have unresectable LM. Oxaliplatin-based intravenous chemotherapy represents the gold standard treatment for CRC. Intravenous oxaliplatin has several side effects i.e., nephrologic, hematologic and neurological toxicity. Moreover, hepatic arterial infusion (HAI) of antitumor drugs deeply modifies the treatment of LMCRC due to the knowledge that LM are perfused by the hepatic artery network, whereas healthy tissue is perfused by the portal vein. Therefore, oxaliplatin-based HAI becomes an interesting possibility to treat LMCRC. The aim of this review is to shed light on the important impact of the oxaliplatin-based chemotherapy from a non-conventional clinical point of view, considering that, being universally accepted its antitumor effect if administered intravenously, fragmentary information are known about its clinical applications and benefits deriving from intra-arterial administration in loco-regional chemotherapy.

Clin Res Hepatol Gastroenterol 2018; 42:255-260. [PMID: 29233520 DOI: 10.1016/j.clinre.2017.11.004] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/22/2017] [Revised: 10/27/2017] [Accepted: 11/13/2017] [Indexed: 02/04/2023]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Hepatic arterial infusion (HAI) chemotherapy with oxaliplatin is an accepted option in the management of colorectal cancer (CRC) with dominant liver metastases (LM). However, despite prolonged control, some patients experience disease progression. On the other hand, oxaliplatin leads to dose-limiting toxicity. In these cases, the use of a second-line HAI with an alternative drug has never been reported to date. We evaluated treatment outcomes in patients receiving second-line HAI with 5-FU or mitomycin C, after first-line HAI of oxaliplatin in heavily pretreated patients. MATERIAL AND METHODS Between March 2010 and June 2016, this observational study included 24 patients with unresectable CRC LM and treated with HAI of 5-FU (17 patients) or mitomycin C (7 patients), after HAI of oxaliplatin. RESULTS Mean age was 61.7 years. Forty-two percent of patients (10/24) had extra-hepatic metastases and 75% (18/24) at least 8 liver metastases. Including HAI of oxaliplatin, all patients had previously received at least 2 lines of chemotherapy±targeted agents (100%) and 96% (23/24) received concomitant systemic therapies together with HAI of 5-FU or mitomycin C. The overall objective response rate and disease control rate were, respectively, 42% (10/24) and 71% (17/24). Median progression-free survival and overall survival (OS) were, respectively, 5.6 and 25.8 months; hepatic progression-free survival was 8.5months. Thirteen percent (3/24) of the patients received further curative intent treatment after HAI 5-FU and mitomycin C. No toxic death occurred and the toxicity profile was acceptable. CONCLUSIONS HAI of 5-FU or mitomycin C is an alternative option in patients with predominant CRC LM, when they experience disease progression or do not tolerate HAI of oxaliplatin.

Abstract
The technique of hepatic arterial infusion (HAI) for the treatment of liver metastases from colorectal cancer has been developed over more than 30 years. Although the indications and protocols for this technique have evolved with time, HAI is not routinely performed in clinical practice. Studies have been heterogeneous, with different regimens of intra-arterial drugs, associated or not with systemic chemotherapy, and with unconvincing outcomes. Technical difficulties for catheter placement have limited the implementation of this method in routine practice. The aim of this review is to present recent studies, highlighting technical improvements and promising combinations of oxaliplatin-based HAI with systemic treatments. HAI is being investigated in both the metastatic setting - in the first line and beyond - and in the adjuvant setting, and we will discuss its potential place in current and future patient management.

Abstract
Aims and background The advantage of administering chemotherapy by hepatic arterial infusion is the achievement of high drug concentrations in the liver. Oxaliplatin, irinotecan and 5-flourouracil are active agents in advanced gastric cancer. Therefore a retrospective analysis was performed to investigate the effects of these drugs administered by hepatic arterial infusion in heavily pretreated gastric cancer patients with predominant hepatic metastases. Very limited data about hepatic arterial infusion exist in western gastric cancer patients. Methods Seven patients with advanced gastric cancer were included in the retrospective analysis. All patients had proven progressive disease prior to initiation of hepatic arterial infusion. All had an ECOG performance status of ≤2 and had received at least two previous systemic chemotherapy regimens, including the combination of cisplatin/5-fluorouracil. Patients were given chemotherapy by hepatic arterial infusion: 5-fluorouracil, 600 mg/m2, together with folinic acid, 300 mg/m2/2 h, followed by oxaliplatin, 85 mg/m2/2 h, every 2 weeks. Results Fifty-four cycles of hepatic arterial infusion (range, 2–21) with a median treatment duration of 6 cycles were administered in 7 patients. The treatment was feasible and safe, no grade 3–4 toxicity was observed. One patient showed stabilization of liver metastases over 7 months. In 6 of the 7 patients there was radiologically proven progressive disease after a median treatment time of 10 weeks. Conclusions Chemotherapy by hepatic arterial infusion is modestly effective in heavily pretreated gastric cancer patients. Hepatic arterial infusion has a very favorable toxicity profile and can be safely administered even in elderly patients. It might be an additional therapeutic option and should be further investigated. The literature on hepatic arterial infusion in gastric cancer patients is reviewed.

Abstract
AIM To evaluate the clinical value and efficiency of trans-arterial chemoperfusion (TACP) in patients with liver metastases from breast cancer (BC) and colorectal cancer (CRC).
METHODS We treated 36 patients with liver metastases of BC (n = 19, 19 females) and CRC (n = 17; 8 females, 9 males) with repeated TACP. The treatment interval was 4 wk. TACP was performed with gemcitabine (1000 mg/m2) and mitomycin (10 mg/m2), administered within 1 h after positioning the catheter tip in the hepatic artery. Before treatment, the size, location, tumour volume, vascularization and number of liver tumours were evaluated using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Tumour response was evaluated according to the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors guidelines.
RESULTS TACP using gemcitabine and mitomycin for metastases from CRC and BC was performed without any serious side effects. The follow-up MRI showed a therapeutic response in 84.2% of the BC patients - stable disease 47.4% and partial response 36.8%. A progression was seen in 15.8%. CRC patients showed a therapeutic response in 52.9% of cases. A progression of the disease was documented in 47.1% of the patients with CRC. These data show that TACP in patients with liver metastases of BC leads to a significantly better therapeutic response compared with CRC patients (P = 0.042). The median survival time was 13.2 mo for the BC patients, which is significantly longer than for CRC patients at 9.3 mo (P = 0.001).
CONCLUSION TACP for liver metastases of BC appears to be a safe and effective palliative treatment with improved outcomes in comparison to patients with CRC.

Abstract
Colorectal cancer is the third leading cause of cancer death in the United States. Although hepatic excision is the first-line treatment for colorectal liver metastasis (CRLM), few patients are candidates. Locoregional therapy (LRT) encompasses minimally invasive techniques practiced by interventional radiology. These include ablative treatments (radiofrequency ablation, microwave ablation, and cryosurgical ablation) and transcatheter intra-arterial therapy (hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy, transarterial "bland" embolization, transarterial chemoembolization, and radioembolization with yttrium 90). The National Comprehensive Cancer Network recommends LRT for unresectable CRLM refractory to chemotherapy. The following is a review of LRT in CRLM, including salient features, advantages, limitations, current roles, and future considerations.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Optimal clinical development of new cancer therapies targeting tumor vasculature requires new target-specific response assays. This clinical study examined the test-retest repeatability of SPECT as an in vivo assay of angiogenic hepatic tumor microvasculature using an intraarterial infusion of 99mTc-macroaggregated albumin (MAA) delivered via a hepatic artery infusion (HAI) pump. MATERIALS AND METHODS Patients with primary or secondary cancerous liver tumors with HAI pump-catheter implants placed for HAI chemotherapy underwent hepatic SPECT after separate arterial infusions of 37 and 185 MBq of 99mTc-MAA via an HAI pump. Quantitative measures of hepatic tumor MAA uptake were obtained from paired test-retest SPECT datasets. Repeatability was defined by quotients of paired measurands with 95% CIs and coefficients of repeatability (CRs). RESULTS Test-retest HAI pump SPECT yielded highly repeatable measurements in quantitative indexes of tumor microvasculature. Variability in repeat test-retest measurements was small relative to the range of observed measurements between different tumors. The total hepatic tumor microvascular MAA accumulation (percentage injected dose) proved most repeatable, with test-retest value quotients near unity (quotients: median, 1.10 ± 0.09 [SD]; range, 1.03-1.32; 95% CI, 1.07-1.19) and 1.6% CR. Tumor MAA uptake values ranged from 5% to 18% injected dose. CONCLUSION This article describes the precision of HAI SPECT as a quantitative biomarker of tumor microvasculature under conditions of repeatability. The results support clinical testing of HAI SPECT as a radiologic response biomarker for angiotropic tumor therapy.

Abstract
During the past 20 years, advances in systemic therapies have improved overall survival of patients with Colorectal cancer Liver metastases (CRLM) from 6 to 24 months. By reaching CRLM via their preferential arterial vascularization, hepatic arterial infusion of chemotherapy (HAIC) has demonstrated improvement in response rate and deepness of response. Improvement in deepness of response is potentially helpful to convert no surgical patient to surgery. Recent HAIC regimens, including HAIC-FUDR plus systemic oxaliplatin/irinotecan, or HAIC-oxaliplatin plus systemic 5FU and cetuximab yielded a 92% and 90% response rate respectively, and conversion to R0 surgery in 47% and 42% of patients, respectively. When HAIC delivered a drug ineffective through intravenous delivery, this rechallenge provided 62% response rate for HAIC. Nowadays, port-catheter implanted percutaneously by radiologists has 95% feasibility with primary patency equivalent to that of surgically implanted catheters, and secondary patency superior after radiologic revision. Retrospective studies demonstrated prolonged DFS of HAIC over IV chemotherapy in the adjuvant setting after surgery of CRLM. Drug eluting beads loaded with irinotecan (DEBIRI) were developed as drug carrier and embolization platform for treatment of CRLM by chemoembolization. DEBIRI allows for a very high level of SN-38 (SN-38 is the active compound of irinotecan) and a very high rate of complete l response at pathologic studies of treated metastases. DEBIRI was compared to systemic FOLFIRI in a phase III randomized trial including 74 patients with benefit in overall survival and disease-free survival.

Abstract
Purpose To evaluate the efficacy and safety of hepatic arterial infusion (HAI) of oxaliplatin and 5-fluorouracil for advanced perihilar cholangiocarcinoma (PCC) in this prospective phase II study. Materials and Methods The protocol was approved by the local ethics committee, and all patients gave informed consent. Patients with nonresectable PCC were included in a prospective, open phase II study investigating HAI through interventionally implanted port catheters. HAI consisted of infusions of oxaliplatin 40 mg/m2 for 2 hours, followed by 5-fluorouracil 800 mg/m2 for 22 hours on days 1-3 every 3-4 weeks. A maximum of six cycles of HAI were applied for tumor control patients followed by maintenance with oral capecitabine until tumor progression. The primary end points were tumor response and progression-free survival (PFS). The secondary end points were local PFS, overall survival, and adverse events. Kaplan-Meier methodology and Cox regression analysis were used to evaluate the risk factors for survival. Results Between 2012 and 2015, 37 patients were enrolled. The overall response rate was 67.6% (25 of 37), and the disease control rate was 89.2% (33 of 37). Median PFS, local PFS, and overall survival were 12.2, 25.0, and 20.5 months, respectively. All three survival lengths in patients with periductal infiltrating pattern were found to be significantly longer than those in patients with mass-forming pattern (P < .001, hazard ratio < 0.2). Macroscopic growth patterns (P = .018) and number of HAI cycles (P < .001) were independent risk factors of survival. The most frequent adverse events were grades 1 and 2 gastrointestinal side effects and sensory neuropathy in 31 (83.8%) and 28 (75.7%) patients, respectively. Conclusion HAI with oxaliplatin and 5-fluorouracil may be an encouraging treatment choice for advanced PCC due to its high tumor control, survival benefit, and low toxicity, especially in patients with periductal infiltrating pattern. © RSNA, 2016.

Abstract
Minimal invasive therapies have proved useful in the management of primary and secondary hepatic malignancies. The most relevant aspects of all these therapies are their minimal toxicity profiles and highly effective tumor responses without affecting the normal hepatic parenchyma. These unique characteristics coupled with their minimally invasive nature provide an attractive therapeutic option for patients who previously may have had few alternatives. Combination of these therapies might extend indications to bring curative treatment to a wider selected population. The results of various ongoing combination trials of intraarterial therapies with targeted therapies are awaited to further improve survival in this patient group. This review focuses on the application of ablative and intra-arterial therapies in the management of hepatocellular carcinoma and hepatic colorectal metastasis.

Abstract
Transarterial therapies in the setting of primary and secondary liver malignancies are becoming an essential part of the oncology landscape. Most patients with hepatic malignancies are not candidates for curative surgical intervention, thereby warranting exploration of alternative means of treatment that preserves quality of life while providing clinical benefit. Herein, the data for intra-arterial chemoinfusion, transarterial chemoembolization, drug-eluting beads, and radioembolization are discussed in the setting of malignancies within the liver; outcome data relating to survival, time-to-progression, time-to-recurrence, and adverse events are presented. Further data regarding different treatment paradigms for hepatocellular carcinoma, metastatic colorectal carcinoma, neuroendocrine tumours, and intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma are also provided. In light of these and forthcoming data, transarterial therapies seem to offer a viable treatment pathway for select populations of patients.

Abstract
PURPOSE Hepatic arterial infusion (HAI) has been proved to be an effective strategy to increase the chances of resection for colorectal cancer patients with liver metastasis (CRCLM). Herein, we aimed to evaluate the benefits and risks of initial treatment with HAI floxuridine (FUDR) and systemic XELOX in un-resectable synchronous CRCLM. MATERIALS AND METHODS HAI catheter systems were implanted radiologically in 54 patients with un-resectable synchronous CRCLM. Upfront HAI FUDR and systemic XELOX were delivered without primary cancer resection. Patients underwent deferred surgery when the metastatic diseases were converted to resectability, or any serious colorectal cancer-related complications occurred. RESULTS Thirty-eight patients (70.4%) were converted to resectability and underwent staged or synchronous resection of the primary tumor and metastatic disease, with an estimated 3-year survival rate of 76% compared with 15% in un-resected patients. Uni-variate analysis showed that hepatic involvement, number of lesion, and the location of primary cancer did not affect resectability rate. Only 3 patients (5.6%) required palliative surgery to treat complications related to primary cancer. CONCLUSIONS Initial HAI FUDR and systemic XELOX are effective to help patients with CRCLM to obtain a high resection rate for asymptomatic colorectal cancer and un-resectable liver metastases, and associated with a low rate of complications related to the intact primary cancer.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hepatic arterial infusion (HAI) chemotherapy is an effective treatment for patients with liver malignancy. Extrahepatic perfusion (EHP) after HAI pump placement requires correction prior to starting chemotherapy. The aim of this study was to define the origin of arterial branches causing EHP in order to determine if alterations in surgical technique during pump placement might prevent EHP. METHODS A prospectively maintained, single-centre HAI database was reviewed for all patients (2008-2011) with EHP. The origin of arterial branches causing EHP was classified anatomically and patient outcomes were analysed. RESULTS Of the 327 patients with pumps implanted, 24 evidenced EHP. The arterial branch responsible for EHP perfused the duodenum, pancreas and/or stomach. The branch responsible for EHP arose from the proper hepatic artery (PHA), 1(st) , 2(nd) , or 3(rd) order hepatic artery branches in 7, 10, 5 and 2 patients, respectively. The majority of branches beyond the PHA causing EHP (13/17) originated from the right hepatic artery. In 18 patients, aberrant branches were successfully treated with embolization. CONCLUSION These findings provide the anatomic basis for prevention of up to one-third of the cases of EHP intra-operatively, decreasing the number of patients who will require additional procedures for correction of EHP post-operatively.

Abstract
Despite significant improvements in systemic therapy for patients with colorectal liver metastases (crlms), response rates in the first-line setting are not optimal, and response rates in the second-line setting remain disappointing. Hepatic arterial infusion pump (haip) chemotherapy has been extensively studied in patients with crlms, but it remains infrequently used. We convened an expert panel to discuss the role of haip in the contemporary management of patients with crlm. Using a consensus process, we developed these statements: haip chemotherapy should be given in combination with systemic chemotherapy.haip chemotherapy should be offered in the context of a multidisciplinary program that includes expertise in hepatobiliary surgery, medical oncology, interventional radiology, nursing, and nuclear medicine.haip chemotherapy in combination with systemic therapy should be considered in patients with unresectable crlms who have progressed on first-line systemic treatment. In addition, haip chemotherapy is acceptable as first-line treatment in patients with unresectable colorectal liver metastases.haip chemotherapy is not recommended in the setting of extrahepatic disease outside the context of a clinical trial.haip chemotherapy in combination with systemic therapy is an option for select patients with resected colorectal liver metastases. These consensus statements provide a framework that clinicians who treat patients with crlm can use when considering treatment with haip.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hepatic arterial infusion (HAI) of chemotherapy requires the implantation of a transcatheter application system which is traditionally performed by surgery. This procedure, but particularly the adjacent drug application via pump or port is often hampered by specific complications and device failure. Interventionally implanted port catheter systems (IIPCS) facilitate the commencement of HAI without need for laparatomy, and are associated with favorable complication rates. We here present an evaluation of the most important technical endpoints associated with the use of IIPCS for HAI in patients with primary liver cancers. METHODS 70 patients (pts) with hepatocellular (HCC, n=33) and biliary tract cancer (BTC, n=37) were enrolled into a phase II -study. Of those, n=43 had recurrent disease and n=31 suffered from liver-predominant UICC-stage IVb. All pts were provided with IIPCSs before being treated with biweekly, intraarterial chemotherapy (oxaliplatin, 5-Flourouracil, folinic acid). The primary objective of the trial was defined as evaluation of device-related complications and port duration. RESULTS Implantation of port catheters was successful in all patients. Mean treatment duration was 5.8 months, and median duration of port patency was not reached. Disease-progression was the most common reason for treatment discontinuation (44 pts., 63%), followed by chemotherapy-related toxicity (12 pts., 17%), and irreversible device failure (5 pts., 7%). A total of 28 port complications occurred in 21 pts (30%). No unexpected complications were observed. CONCLUSIONS HAI via interventionally implanted port catheters can be safely applied to patients with primary liver tumors far advanced or/and pretreated.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Effective and tolerable chemotherapy with gemcitabine and cisplatin for advanced biliary tract cancer (BTC) has been established recently. However, overall prognosis is still poor, and additional therapeutic approaches are needed for patients with locally advanced, irresectable and/or pretreated tumors. Hepatic arterial infusion (HAI) of chemotherapy represents a safe and well-established treatment modality, but data on its use in patients with BTC are still sparse. METHODS Patients with irresectable BTC predominant to the liver were included in a prospective, open phase II study investigating HAI provided through interventionally implanted port catheters. Intraarterial chemotherapy consisted of biweekly oxaliplatin (O) 85 mg/m(2) and folinic acid (F) 170 mg/m(2) with 5-FU (F) 600 mg/m(2). RESULTS Between 2004 and 2010, 37 patients were enrolled. A total of 432 cycles of HAI were applied with a median of 9 (range 1-46) cycles. Objective response rate was 16 %, and tumor control was achieved in 24 of 37 (65 %) patients. Median progression-free survival was 6.5 months (range 0.5-26.0; 95 % CI 4.3-8.7), median overall survival was 13.5 (range 0.9-50.7; 95 % CI 11.1-15.9) months. The most frequent adverse event was sensory neuropathy grade 1/2 in 10/14 patients. CONCLUSIONS Using a minimal invasive technique, repetitive HAI with OFF is feasible and results in clinically relevant tumor control with low toxicity in patients with liver predominant advanced BTC.

Abstract
Patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC) are often treated sequentially with targeted agents, although the optimal strategy is not known. A retrospective, registry-based study has been carried out to assess correlation between clinical response and progression-free survival in patients with mRCC treated sequentially with tyrosine-kinase inhibitors (TKIs) sunitinib and sorafenib. Data on 218 mRCC patients treated with sunitinib and sorafenib who completed therapy with both TKIs were obtained from a database of mRCC patients. Standard nonparametric methods were used to assess correlation between response, PFS and length of treatment on the two agents. A strong correlation between responses to first- versus second TKI was observed (p < 0.001). No significant association was noted between the duration of therapy with the two TKIs (p = 0.056), although there was a weak statistically significant correlation between progression-free survival times in the subgroup patients who discontinued treatment because of disease progression. In conclusion, the duration of response on first TKI is of limited value in selecting mRCC patients for sequential TKI therapy. There is a strong correlation between the types of tumour response on the first- versus the second TKI.

Abstract
Hepatic arterial infusion (HAI) selectively achieves high drug exposure of liver metastases from colorectal cancer. Such pharmacologic advantage has doubled the response rate of liver metastases on fluoropyrimidines (FP) delivered as HAI rather than intravenously, in a meta-analysis of randomised clinical trials (RCT). However, the improvement in antitumour efficacy did not consistently translate into any significant survival advantage across all randomised studies. However, the results of this meta-analysis should be cautiously interpreted due to the heterogeneity of the studies, inadequate study designs, obsolete therapy and high rate of early treatment discontinuation due to HAI technical failures or hepato-biliary toxicity. Most studies actually were performed before year 2000 and did not integrate the considerable progresses accomplished in the management of CRC, such as multidrug regimens instead of single agent FP and secondary resection of metastases, a major contributing factor for prolonged survival. Furthermore, the systemic exposure of patients given HAI was low without concomitant IV therapy, facilitating extra-hepatic relapses. The role of HAI in liver metastases from CRC should, therefore, be revisited, using modern multidisciplinary therapeutic approaches and appropriate study designs. Recommendations for the design of future RCTs exploring HAI are provided.

Abstract
Transcatheter intraarterial therapies have proved valuable in the battle against primary and secondary hepatic malignancies. The unique aspects of all such therapies are their reduced toxicity profiles and highly effective tumor responses. These unique characteristics coupled with their minimally invasive nature provide an attractive therapeutic option in patients who may have previously had few alternatives. The concept of all catheter-based intraarterial therapies is to selectively deliver anticancer treatment to tumor(s). These therapies, which include transarterial embolization, intraarterial chemoinfusion, transarterial chemoembolization with or without drug-eluting beads, and radioembolization with use of yttrium 90, inflict lethal insult to tumors while preserving normal hepatic parenchyma. This is possible because hepatic neoplasms preferentially derive their blood supply from an arterial source while the majority of noncancerous liver is supplied by the portal vein. As part of the interventional oncology review series, in this article we describe the rationale behind each of these transcatheter therapies and provide a review of the existing medical literature.

Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate a modified technique for arterial port placement that uses a suture-mediated closure system with the aim to reduce delays caused by intraprocedural oozing around the catheter. MATERIALS AND METHODS Forty consecutive patients (age, 63.9 y ± 11.8) stratified for regional arterial infusion chemotherapy were prospectively randomized to undergo conventional or modified port implantation. Time for device placement, total procedure time, number of catheters, size of largest and final catheters placed, duration of bleeding from puncture site, procedural delays, and time until hemostasis was achieved were recorded. RESULTS Time for device placement was 3.7 minutes ± 1.1, with no complications encountered. Total procedure times were 133.0 minutes ± 62.8 for conventional port implantation and 100.0 minutes ± 49.5 for modified implantation (P = .13). No differences were found in the number of catheters or size of largest or final catheter used. Duration of groin bleeding necessitating manual compression was 21.8 minutes ± 24.4 for conventional port implantation, resulting in a mean procedural delay of 6.2 minutes ± 7.0. Hemostasis was achieved after a mean of 17.1 minutes ± 20.9. Groin hematoma was observed in three patients. In contrast, with the modified technique, mean duration of oozing and intraprocedural delays were only 0.2 minutes ± 0.6 and 0.1 minutes ± 0.5, respectively (both P < .0001 vs conventional technique). Hemostasis was achieved within 3.2 minutes ± 4.1 (P < .0001), with no cases of hematoma found. CONCLUSIONS Use of a suture-mediated closure system facilitated arterial port implantation by effective prevention of groin bleeding while allowing the use of a sheath.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Primary and secondary liver tumors resemble some of the most common causes of cancer and represent a major clinical problem owing to the poor prognosis. First-line therapeutic concepts are mainly based on surgical resection and/or systemic chemotherapy (SCT). However, many patients are not suitable for surgery or have failed SCT, although the total tumor load is still limited, which makes a regional therapy approach appealing. AREAS COVERED This review focuses on different types of transarterial instillation of chemotherapy, which encompasses conventional and drug-eluting transarterial chemoembolization (TACE), hepatic arterial infusion (HAI) chemotherapy and isolated hepatic perfusion (ILP). EXPERT OPINION TACE can be regarded as the treatment of choice in patients with multinodular hepatocellular carcinoma, but it should still be performed as a lipiodol-based regimen, while the value of doxorubicin-eluting beads needs to be exploited in further randomized controlled trials (RCTs). For patients with colorectal liver metastases, HAI chemotherapy has been challenged by the advent of more effective SCT, but encouraging results have been observed for the combination of the most recent, active drugs given by means of HAI with SCT. Nevertheless, data from RCTs comparing SCT with this transarterial regional therapy approach, as well as with TACE and ILP, are urgently needed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIMS Limited options remain for patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (CRC) after failure of standard systemic chemotherapy. Readministration of chemotherapeutic agents by hepatic arterial infusion (HAI) has the rationale of providing higher concentrations of chemotherapeutic agents to hepatic metastases. The present study was conducted to evaluate the efficacy and safety of HAI of fluorouracil with leucovorin (HAI 5-FU/LV) for patients with liver metastases from CRC. METHODS Fourteen patients with liver metastases from CRC who received HAI 5-FU/LV after failure of systemic chemotherapy containing fluorouracil and leucovorin were identified and their medical records were reviewed. RESULTS Of 10 patients evaluable for response, one partial response, six stable disease, and three progressive disease were reported. Additionally, the overall response and disease control rates were 7% and 50%, respectively. The median time to progression was 4.3 months (range, 2.9 to 5.6), to hepatic progression was 5.8 months (range, 4.7 to 6.9), and to extrahepatic progression was 5.8 months (range, 2.3 to 9.2). No grade 3/4 hematologic toxicities occurred and one case of abdominal pain and two cases of oral mucositis were the only grade 3 nonhematologic toxicities. Catheter-related complications occurred in three patients: one thrombosis, one infection, and one displacement. CONCLUSIONS HAI 5-FU/LV was well tolerated and showed modest efficacy for patients with liver metastases from refractory CRC. Readministration of previously used chemotherapeutic agents via the hepatic artery could be an effective salvage option and warrants further investigation in a prospective trial.

Abstract
PURPOSE To compare retrospectively the safety and efficacy of percutaneous and surgical implantations of port-catheters for intra-arterial hepatic chemotherapy (IAHC). MATERIALS AND METHODS Between January 2004 and December 2008, 126 consecutive patients (mean age 58 years) suffering from liver colorectal metastases were referred for intra-arterial hepatic chemotherapy (IAHC). Port-catheters were percutaneously implanted (P) through femoral access with the patient under conscious sedation when no other surgery was planned or were surgically implanted (S) when laparotomy was performed for another purpose. We report the implantation success rate, primary functionality, functionality after revision, and complications of IAHC. RESULTS The success rates of implantation were 97% (n = 65 of 67) for P and 98% (n = 58 of 59) for S. One hundred eleven patients received IAHC in our institution (n = 56P and n = 55S). Primary functionality was the same for P and S (4.80 vs. 4.82 courses), but functionality after revision was significantly higher for P (9.18 vs. 5.95 courses, p = 0.004) than for S. Forty-five complications occurred during 516 courses for P and 28 complications occurred during 331 courses for S. The rates of discontinuation of IAHC linked to complications of the port-catheters were 21% (n = 12 of 56) for P and 34% (n = 19 of 55) for S. CONCLUSION Overall, significantly better functionality and similar complication rates occurred after P versus S port-catheters.

Phase II feasibility study on the combination of two different regional treatment approaches in patients with colorectal "liver-only" metastases: hepatic interstitial brachytherapy plus regional chemotherapy. Cardiovasc Intervent Radiol 2009; 32:937-45.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to evaluate the feasibility, safety, and efficacy of combined treatment with hepatic interstitial brachytherapy (HIB) and hepatic arterial infusion (HAI) of chemotherapy after interventional implantation of port catheter systems. Thirty-three patients with unresectable "liver-only" metastases of colorectal cancer were treated with both HIB and HAI during the course of their disease. All 33 patients had recurrent disease and 27 had received previous chemotherapy. Of these, 15 received HAI first and were then consolidated with HIB, 9 started with HIB and were continued with HAI, and 9 received first HIB and subsequently HAI after hepatic disease progression. Patients were evaluated for treatment characteristics, side effects, and efficacy. Comparisons between treatment groups were also performed. The median tumor diameter of metastases treated with brachytherapy was 4.6 cm (range: 1-12 cm). The median minimal irradiation dose inside the tumor margin was 18 Gy administered to a mean of two metastases in 69 interventions. Minor (n = 4) and major (n = 3) complications occurred in 10% of interventions. WHO grade III adverse events of the regional chemotherapy were observed in seven patients; grade IV, in one patient. At a median follow-up of 28 months (range: 7-74 months), the median time to disease progression after first treatment was 10.5 months (range: 1-35 months). Of 138 metastases treated by brachytherapy, 16 local recurrences were seen (mean, 12.3 months; range, 3-45 months). No signs of hepatic failure were observed in any of our patients. In conclusion, combinations of two minimally invasive therapeutic methods are feasible, with acceptable complication rates, and provide promising results in colorectal cancer patients with unresectable hepatic metastases.

Abstract
Background Hepatic artery infusion (HAI) is indicated to treat unresectable colorectal hepatic metastases, with recent applications as a neoadjuvant or adjuvant treatment. Traditionally performed with the infusion of fluoropyrimidine-based chemotherapy, it has been now tested with oxaliplatin or irinotecan and associated with systemic chemotherapy. Methods To evaluate the impact of medical devices complications we carried out a search of the published studies on HAI in unresectable colorectal liver metastases. Complications were pooled according to the applied medical system: 1) surgical catheter, 2) radiological catheter, and 3) fully implantable pump. The surgical catheter is inserted into the hepatic artery from the gastro-duodenal artery. The radiological catheter is inserted into the hepatic artery through a percutaneous transfemoral or transaxillar access. The fully implantable pump is a totally internal medical device connected to the arterial hepatic catheter during laparotomy. Results The selection criteria were met in 47/319 studies. The complications of surgical and radiological medical devices connected to a port were found in 16 and 14 studies respectively. Meanwhile, complications with a fully implantable pump were reported in 17 studies. The total number of complications reported in studies evaluating patients with surgical or radiological catheter were 322 (322/948, 34%) and 261 (261/722, 36.1%) respectively. In studies evaluating patients with a fully implantable pump, the total number of complications was 237 (237/1502, 15.8%). In 18/319 studies the number of cycles was reported. The median number of cycles with surgically and radiologically implanted catheters was 8 and 6 respectively. The fully implantable pump allows a median number of 12 cycles. Conclusions The fully implantable pump, maintaining a continuous infusion through the system, allows the lowest risk for thrombosis and infection and the best median number of cycles of loco-regional chemotherapy in HAI.

Abstract
Hepatic arterial infusion of chemotherapy (HAIC) delivers higher local drug concentration to unresectable liver tumors with fewer significant systemic side-effects. It has been shown to produce better response rates than systemic chemotherapy and remains an important treatment option in patients with advanced, inoperable primary or metastatic hepatic tumors. Traditionally, catheters for HAIC were inserted surgically under general anesthesia. The advancement and expansion of interventional radiology have made it possible for catheter-port systems to be inserted percutaneously under local anesthesia with no significant increase in morbidity. A comprehensive review of the literature, techniques and complications of percutaneous placement of catheter-port systems for HAIC is presented in this article.
