Primary Outcome Measures:
- response rate [ Time Frame: 6 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
| Estimated Enrollment: | 450 |
| Study Start Date: | March 2009 |
| Estimated Study Completion Date: | February 2015 |
| Estimated Primary Completion Date: | December 2012 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure) |
| Arms | Assigned Interventions |
|---|---|
| Experimental: anti-cancer agent |
Drug: epirubicin
Arm E: Suspension is prepared before arterial infusion as follows: Epirubicin is dissolved with water-soluble, non-ionized contrast medium then mixed with Lipiodol by pumping. Then this suspension is administered by catheter as quick as possible, and gelatin is infused for arterial embolization. Maximum dose of EPI and Lipiodol are 60mg/m2 and 0.3mL/Kg, respectively.
Other Name: epi-adriamycin
Drug: Cisplatin
Arm C: Suspension is prepared before arterial infusion as follows: Cisplatin (Water soluble CDDP: IA CALL) is mixed with Lipiodol. Then this suspension is administered by catheter as quick as possible, and gelatin is infused for arterial embolization. Maximum dose of Cisplatin and Lipiodol are 65mg/m2 and 0.3mL/Kg, respectively.
Other Name: CDDP
