TACE Using Idarubicin Versus Doxorubicin Chemoemulsion in Patients with Hepatocellular Carcinoma
Transarterial Chemoembolization Using Idarubicin Versus Doxorubicin Chemoemulsion in Patients with Hepatocellular Carcinoma (IDADOX)

Summary
Little is known about whether the types of chemotherapeutic agents affect the efficacy of transarterial chemoembolization in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma. Although doxorubicin is the most commonly-used chemotherapeutic agent in the world, idarubicin is recently in the spotlight after promising results of the in vitro and prospective single-arm studies. On the other hand, there are many reports showing that the type of chemotherapeutic agents does not significantly alter the efficacy of transarterial chemoembolization. This is a randomized-controlled trial to show the non-inferiority of idarubicin compared to doxorubicin in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma who receive transarterial chemoembolization as the first-line treatment.

Interventions
Stable chemoemulsion will be produced by dissolving 10 mg of idarubicin powder (Zavedos; Pfizer, New York, NY, USA) in 2.5 mL of an iodinated contrast agent. This solution will then be mixed with 10 mL of iodized oil (Lipiodol Ultrafluid; Guerbet, Villepinte, France) using a three-way stopcock. This chemoemulsion will be prepared in aliquots (0.8 mL of chemoemulsion in each 1 mL syringe) and injected until the embolization endpoint is achieved.
