Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Treatment: Drugs - Cisplatin-gemcitabine
Treatment: Devices - Radiation: SIRT + chemotherapy (cisplatin-gemcitabine)

Active comparator: Chemotherapy (Cisplatin-Gemcitabine) - Cisplatin 25mg/m2 in 1000ml 0.9% saline given over 1 hour followed by 500 ml 0.9% saline over 30 minutes, followed by Gemcitabine 1000 mg/m2 in 250-500 ml 0.9% saline over 30 minutes by intravenous infusions on days 1, and 8 of a 21-day cycle.

Experimental: Radiation: SIRT + chemotherapy (Cisplatin-Gemcitabine) - A single treatment of hepatic arterial injection of SIR-Spheres Y-90 resin microspheres (SIRT) followed 14-16 days later by systemic chemotherapy (ABC-02 CIS-GEM protocol) with an intention to treat with 8 cycles of cisplatin + gemcitabine, or until progression, toxicity or patient choice. Treatment may be continued beyond 8 cycles in the absence of significant disease progression, at the treating clinicians' discretion.

Patient are permitted to have loco-regional lymph node involvement defined as: portal LN </= to 2 cm and/or para aortic LN </= to 1.5 cm in longest diameter, and/or up to 2 indeterminate lung lesions < 1 cm if these lung lesions are positron emission tomography (PET) negative.
* Chemotherapy naïve. Adjuvant chemotherapy is not permitted.
* Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status 0 or 1.
* Adequate hematological function defined as:

Hemoglobin >/= 10g/dL White Blood Cell count (WBC) >/= 3.0 x 10^9/L Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) >/= 1.5 x 10^9/L Platelet count >/= 100,000/mm^3 - Adequate liver function defined as: Total bilirubin </= 30 umol/L (1.75 mg/dL) Albumin >/= 30 g/L

* Life expectancy of at least 3 months without any active treatment
* Female patients must either be postmenopausal, sterile (surgically or radiation- or chemically-induced), or if sexually active use an acceptable method of contraception during the study.

* Prior internal or external radiation delivered to the liver.
* Pregnancy; breast feeding.
* Participation within 28 days prior to randomization, in an active part of another clinical study that would compromise any of the endpoints of the study.
* Evidence of ongoing active infection that may affect treatment feasibility or outcome.
* Prior Whipple's procedure.
