PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. Progression free survival in patients treated with prophylactic hepatic irradiation.
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
I. Acute and late term toxicity and overall survival.
OUTLINE:
Patients undergo external beam radiation therapy daily over 20 minutes on Monday-Friday for 10 fractions over approximately 2 weeks.
After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up every 6 months for 5 years.

- Overall Survival [ Time Frame: Up to 5 years ]
- Distant Failure Rates [ Time Frame: Up to 5 years ]Cumulative incidence approach (Kaplan-Meier [K-M] plots and Cox proportional hazard modeling) will be used to estimate distant failure rates.
- Disease-specific Survival [ Time Frame: Up to 5 years ]Cumulative incidence approach (K-M plots and Cox proportional hazard modeling) will be used to estimate disease-specific survival.
