  • ECOG Performance Status score of 0 or 1
  • Negative pregnancy test in women of child-bearing potential
  • Adequate contraception for the patient and his/her sexual partner when applicable.
  • Adequate liver function, as defined by:
  • Child Pugh A or to B7 (HCC)
  • Must have bilirubin ≤ 2 mg/dL
  • ALT and AST must be \<5 x ULN

What rules you out
  • [Exclusion Criteria based on the clinical evaluation]
  • Vp4 according to the Liver Cancer Study Group of Japan (LCSGJ) portal vein tumor thrombosis classification1
  • History of severe allergy or intolerance to contrast agents, narcotics sedatives or atropine that cannot be managed medically.
  • Contraindications to angiography and selective visceral catheterization
  • Received any prior external beam radiation treatment to the liver
  • Received any prior yttrium-90 microsphere treatment to the liver
  • Received previous peptide receptor radionuclide therapy (PRRT)
  • Plan to start systemic anticancer treatment in the next 3 month after the index procedure.
  • Presence of ongoing adverse event due to prior therapy as judged by the principal investigator or sub-investigator to affect the safety evaluation of the study device.
  • Evidence of pulmonary insufficiency or clinically evident chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
  • Undergone any intervention for, or compromise of, the Ampulla of Vater within that last 3 months or patient with biliodigestive anastomosis.
  • Presence of ascites, clinical or radiological, "trace" of ascites is acceptable.
  • Presence of Hepatic encephalopathy (Grade ≥2)
  • Previous liver function decompensation within the last 6 months (ascites, encephalopathy, jaundice)
  • Patient with infiltrative disease presentation (not suitable for repeated measurement)
  • Patients who are pregnant or breast-feeding and does not want to stop.
  • Have any disease or condition that would preclude the safe use of BSJ019T, including concurrent dialysis treatment, or unresolved serious infections
  • Participating in concurrent clinical studies or treatment clinical studies
  • Any condition where the Investigator feels the patient would not be able to participate/finish the study
  • Previous gastrointestinal bleeding related to portal hypertension within the last 3 months (preventive treatment is acceptable) [Exclusion Criteria based on the imaging evaluation]
  • Dose to the lung \> 30Gy for a single treatment or cumulative \>50 Gy
  • Evidence of any off-target extrahepatic and liver deposition on 99mTc-MAA that cannot be corrected using angiographic techniques
  • Cone Beam CT (CBCT) or 99mTc-MAA hepatic arterial perfusion scintigraphy shows poor tumor perfusion and/or poor tumor targeting that would lead to a dose that does not meet the liver dosing criteria as specify in the...
