Other Name: Control |
- Primary Effectiveness Endpoint: Delivery of the embolic agent to the index tumor feeding vessel with stasis of flow as determined by an independent radiologist via comparison of the pre and final post procedure images [ Time Frame: Immediately post-embolization procedure ]Stasis of flow defined as absence of contrast flow within the targeted tumor feeding vessel
- Primary Safety Endpoint: Freedom from major adverse events through 30 days post-index procedure [ Time Frame: 30 days post-embolization procedure ]
