Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to determine the maximum tolerated dose of limited fractions of large dose radiation in an effort to achieve a biologically potent cancer therapy in selected patients with primary hepatocellular carcinoma
Detailed Description: Despite recent advances in early detection and diagnosis only 30-40 of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma may benefit from radical therapies Liver transplantation offers the best chance for cure Surgical resection has been the only other potentially curative option but the majority of patients are not candidates for resection This reflects the usual comorbidity of severe underlying liver disease that either precludes surgery or makes the surgical approach extremely dangerous
