Objective Response Rate (ORR) in the liver was a secondary endpoint of the SIRFLOX study. SIR-Spheres® Y-90 resin microspheres in combination with first line chemotherapy, versus chemotherapy alone, showed a significant increase of 9.9% in ORR in the liver and a three-fold improvement in complete response rate (CR) in the liver.1
Patients who had a smaller liver tumor burden (≤12%) on study entry were more than six times as likely to experience a complete response or disappearance of all liver tumors following SIR-Spheres Y-90 resin microspheres compared to those who received only chemotherapy (11.3% vs.1.7%; p=0.003).2
