Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

The survival rate without hepatic recurrence at 1 year
Hepatic recurrence will be defined as the appearance on at least one hepatic MRI with gadolinium injection of a large diameter tumor site at least greater than 10 mm, and presenting characteristics of CHC (hyper vascularization at arterial time and washing at portal or late time), either at the edge of the percutaneous tumor destruction site (= local recurrence) or at a distance from the percutaneous tumor destruction site (= intrahepatic recurrence distant), or both, after at least one liver MRI scan with gadolinium injection showed the absence of tumor residues. Lesions of more than 10 mm that do not present with the typical CHC enhancement described above will be considered CHCs if they have a growth in size of at least 1 cm on successive controls.

Secondary Outcome Measures

The incidence rate of local tumor recurrence
The incidence rate of local tumor recurrence at 1 and 2 years, defined as the appearance, on at least one hepatic MRI with gadolinium injection, of a tumor site with hepatocellular carcinoma characteristics at the edge of the percutaneous tumor ablation site.
The incidence rate of intrahepatic recurrence
The incidence rate of intrahepatic recurrence at 1 and 2 years defined as the appearance, on at least one hepatic MRI with gadolinium injection, of a tumor site with hepatocellular carcinoma characteristics at a distance from the percutaneous tumor ablation site.
The incidence rate of hepatic recurrence
The incidence rate of hepatic recurrence at 2 years defined as the appearance, on at least one hepatic MRI with gadolinium injection, of a tumor site with hepatocellular carcinoma, after at least one exploration by hepatic MRI with gadolinium injection, showed the absence of tumor residue.
Survival without hepatic recurrence
Survival without hepatic recurrence defined as the time between the date of randomization and the date of liver MRI, having confirmed, after centralized and blind re-examination, the presence of a hepatic tumor recurrence either local or intra distant hepatic. Patients who are deceased or transplanted will be considered to have liver progression at the time of death or transplantation.
Rate of survival without hepatic recurrence
Rate of survival without hepatic recurrence at 1 and 2 years defined as the absence of appearance of a large diameter tumor site (at least greater than 10 mm), presenting characteristics of hepatocellular carcinoma on the border of the percutaneous tumour ablation site.
Overall survival
Overall survival defined as the time between the date of randomization and the date of death of the patient.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The aim of this study is to test whether the realization of 3 courses of intra-arterial chemotherapy of idarubicin-lipiodol without embolization, administered non-selectively in the hepatic artery, following the percutaneous tumour ablation of a hepatocellular carcinoma, could constitute an effective adjuvant treatment to reduce the rates of local and intrahepatic distant recurrence and thus improve the survival without hepatic progression.
Detailed Description
During this study percutaneous tumor destruction treatment with adjuvant chemotherapy (infusion of Idarubicin-Lipiodol intra-arterial hepatic) will be tested. The adjuvant chemotherapy is a minimally invasive technique. It consists of the administration of Idarubicin (Zavedos®, Pfizer) mixed with Lipiodol (Lipiodol Ultra-Fluid®, Guerbet) in the hepatic artery.The first course of treatment will be performed under general anesthesia at the same time as the percutaneous tumour ablation. The second and third cures will be performed under local anesthesia 3 and 6 weeks after percutaneous tumour ablation respectively. In the case of incomplete treatment during the percutaneous tumour ablation, the second intervention will be scheduled at the same time as the second intra-arterial chemotherapy treatment, under general anesthesia.
