Image-guided regional therapies, including transarterial infusion chemotherapy (HAIC) and transarterial chemoembolization (TACE), offer revolutionary treatments for liver tumors. These methods deliver chemotherapy directly to tumors, minimizing systemic side effects for patients with liver cancer.

Area of Science:

  • Interventional Radiology
  • Oncology
  • Hepatology

Background:

  • Image-guided interventional catheterizations and percutaneous ablative therapies have transformed nonresectable liver tumor treatment.
  • Treatments are categorized into chemoablative and thermo-/radioablative procedures.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe the role of chemoablative regional therapies in managing primary and secondary liver tumors.
  • To highlight transarterial infusion chemotherapy (HAIC) and transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) as key chemoablative interventions.

Main Methods:

  • Focuses on transarterial delivery of chemotherapy agents directly into liver tumors via hepatic arteries.
  • Aims to maximize intratumoral drug concentration while minimizing systemic drug exposure.

Main Results:

  • Transarterial treatments enable targeted delivery of chemotherapy to liver tumors.
  • These procedures are effective for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and colorectal metastases.

Conclusions:

  • Transarterial chemoablative therapies represent a significant advancement in liver tumor treatment.
  • HAIC and TACE are crucial for managing HCC and secondary liver malignancies.
