ECIO 2015April 22-25, 2015Nice, France
Sixth European Conference on Interventional Oncology
PRELIMINARYPROGRAMME
Cardiovascular and Interventional Radiological Society of Europe
ECIO is now well established as an annual event, and the interest shown and the feedback received have demonstrated that the move to an annual format was a wise one. The field of interventional oncology is growing rapidly, and ECIO offers a structured space in which practitioners can stay abreast of the latest developments and learn new techniques.
Oncology is a field that requires inter-disciplinary collaboration. Patients now benefit from a vast array of specialist knowledge, but this brings its own challenges, and ECIO is striving to ensure its educational programme reflects and supports a
collaborative approach. This includes working with diverse partner societies on a variety of joint sessions, and we are delighted that such sessions will again be offered.
The president of the Japanese Society of Interventional Radiology, which has been strongly focused on interventional oncology for many years, will be delivering this year’s Honorary Lecture. Dr. Yasuaki Arai, who has been at the forefront of the discipline in the Asia-Pacific, will be giving a speech entitled Beyond the evidence – the true goal of interventional oncology.

The meeting has grown over the years, and now encompasses a wide range of session formats, which cater to all styles of learning. The Video Learning Sessions, whose debut in 2014 was well received, will be featured again this year, addressing liver, kidney and lung cancer, as well as the important topic of pain management.
Clinical management is an essential pre-requisite for offering a robust interventional oncology service. To support inter-disciplinary collaborations and negotiations, a number of Multidisciplinary Tumour Boards will be held, discussing various liver and lung cancer cases.
Alongside a wide range of technical advances, ECIO 2015 will cover both established and experimental applications, such as musculoskeletal tumours, lung metastases, and thyroid, adrenal and prostate lesions.
The Mediterranean city of Nice offers an excellent location for the congress. Located within driving distance of Italy, Switzerland and Spain, the city’s fame as a beauty spot also translates into a multitude of flight connections.
We look forward to welcoming you to Nice!

ECIO 2015 3
Yasuaki Arai is Director of, and Chief of the Department of Diagnostic Radiology at, the National Cancer Center Hospital in Tokyo. He also currently serves as the President of the Japanese Society of Interventional Radiology (JSIR).
During his residency in internal medicine, Dr. Arai became interested in chemotherapy, and pursued the path of becom-ing a “medical oncologist”, a term that was not yet particularly well-recognised at the time. He was not satisfied with the clinical results achieved with systemic chemotherapy, and so began exploring the possibility of using a different approach. This ultimately resulted in the invention of an implantable port system, as well as the development of a technique involving placing a catheter via the left subclavian artery for hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy, a concept first addressed in a publication in a Japanese medical journal in 1983.
A year later, Dr. Arai shifted direction, focusing on intervention-al radiology at the Aichi Cancer Center, where he practiced for 20 years. Many younger radiologists have joined this institute over the years in order to receive training in interventional radiology.
Dr. Arai founded the Japanese Society of Implantable Port-Assisted Regional Treatment in 1986, aiming to facilitate the nationwide sharing of knowledge about interventional radiology and the role the specific technique could play in treating cancer. He has led the society, which provides a forum for specialists to exchange information across departments, ever since. The im-plantable port system was ultimately introduced in the article entitled “Management of patients with unresectable metastases from colorectal and gastric cancer employing an implantable port system” (Cancer Chemother. Pharmacol. 31:S990102. 1992).
Dr. Arai has pursued the development of new IR devices and techniques in order to offer better treatment options through-out his entire career. In addition to his work on the implantable port system and the hepatic arterial chemotherapy tech-nique, in 1992, he collaborated with Toshiba Medical Systems Corporation to develop the prototype of a diagnostic system, consisting of a fluoroscopy and a CT scanner, which is currently well-known as the Angio-CT suite. Furthermore, he has devised various approaches that apply interventional radiological tech -niques for palliative care purposes, including using a trans-jugular trans-hepatic peritoneovenous shunt for the management of

refractory ascites; embolisation of various tracts and fistula; the percutaneous creation of bilio-intestinal anastomosis; and the creation of an extra-anatomic splenoportal for bleeding ectopic varices. Their application in palliative care stemmed from his 20 years of experience at the Aichi Cancer Center, where he treated thousands of patients suffering from progressive cancer.
Strengthening interventional radiology’s evidence base has been another major priority for Dr. Arai during the past 20 years. In 2002, he set up the Japan Interventional Radiology in Onco-logy Study Group (JIVROSG) in order to facilitate pursuing evi-dence on interventional oncology. Twenty-six clinical studies have been conducted so far, and JIVROSG has published articles on some of these studies, including one entitled “Prospective study of transcatheter arterial chemoembolization for unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma: an Asian coopera-tive study between Japan and Korea” (J Vasc Interv Radiol. 24: 490-500, 2013). JIVROSG has set itself the challenge of conduct-ing randomised trials that compare interventional radiological procedures to the best treatments available for palliative care.
Yasuaki Arai has been an associate editor for the Journal of Vascular and Interventional Radiology, the Cardiovascular and Interventional Radiology Asia-Pacific Journal of Clinical Oncology, and the International Cancer Conference Journal, and has also served as reviewer for several journals. He is a member of several governmental committees in Japan, including for the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare and the Pharmaceuticals and Medical Devices Agency. Dr. Arai has been a board member of the Japanese Society of Inter ventional Radiology for years, helping to establish and expand the reach of interventional radiology in Japan. He is currently its president, and aims to help ensure that interven-tional radiological procedures become evidence-based, standard treatments, as well as to further IR’s global scope.
Since 2004, Dr. Arai has served in the Department of Diagnostic Radiology in the National Cancer Center Japan. Even after leading the institute as the hospital’s director, he remains engaged with the outpatient clinic and with IR procedures.
In his spare time, Dr. Arai enjoys mountain climbing and cooking, activities that reflect his preference for tackling challenges with both knowledge and the proper technique.

Incentive ProgrammeECIO 2015
1 Video Learning Sessions
This interactive session format made its debut lastyear, and due to the hugely positive response received, it has been decided to extend the sessions on offer this year, to cover liver interventions, lung and kidney therapies, and pain management, guiding you through the procedures step by step.
2 Best IO Papers
Interventional oncology is a growing field, and both new advances and data supporting existing thera-pies are of the utmost importance. The Best IO Papers session will round up some of the most interesting research from the past year, providing you with a concise overview of current trends.
3 Joint Session with ESMO
To both reflect and enhance the multidisciplinary nature of interventional oncology, joint sessions are held with other medical societies. These provide valuable insights into colla borative possibilities. Our long-time partner, the European Society for Medical Oncology will join us again for a fascinating session on Friday.
4 Multidisciplinary Tumour Boards
Much as they do in the hospital setting, these tumour boards enable participants to actively discuss treat-ment strategies for specific HCC and lung cancer cases. Guided by the mixed-specialty panel, the audience can vote on optimal therapeutic approaches and discuss the likely outcomes.
5 Referring Physician Incentive Programme
For many years, the Referring Physician Programme has been enabling interventionists to bring their non-radiologist colleagues to the meeting, where they can see the range of therapies on offer, and the evidence for their use, first-hand. Will you be bringing your colleague to Nice this year?
6 Nice la Belle
‘Nice the Beautiful’ is a wonderful destination for a congress – its picturesque surroundings and mild climate have resulted in the third busiest airport in France, many international train connections, and the second largest hotel capacity in the country. The per-fect place for a congress: in hosting ECIO 2015, the city has plenty to inspire not only impressionists, but also interventionists!

European Conference on Interventional Oncology
ECIO investigates…
Hepatocellular carcinoma, the most common type of liver cancer, is a growing problem worldwide, due largely to the increasing prevalence of chronic liver disease. Considerable progress with respect to detection, diagnosis, surveillance and treatment has improved outcomes, but HCC is nonetheless the third leading cause of cancer deaths. Relatively few patients are eligible for surgery, and systemic therapy alone is of limited value. Interventional radiology has greatly broadened treatment options, with ablation poten-tially curative for early-stage HCC. However, most patients still present with intermediate or advanced forms of the disease, meaning palliation plays a predominant role.
Early-stage HCCDetection and Diagnosis
Early detection and an accurate diagnosis greatly affect a pa- tient’s prognosis. CT and MRI are most commonly used to de tect the disease. Thanks to advances in both imaging and surgical techniques, small, early-stage HCCs have increasingly been de- tected, biopsied, resected and subjected to patholo gi cal exami na-tions, helping practitioners better understand their histolo gical features. With imaging techniques enabling more accurate dia-g noses, and appreciation of the diagnostic value of contrast wash-out growing, the need for tissue confirmation has also waned. Nonetheless, in daily practice, definitive diagnoses often remain challenging, particularly with respect to small nodules. Presen-tations dedicated to pathology, imaging and biopsies will pro-vide delegates with up-to-date information of pathology in early HCC; outline typical and atypical aspects of the disease on CT and MRI, as well as limitations of the two imaging techniques; and will address when it is still necessary to perform a biopsy.
Curative Treatment Options
Ablation offers a potentially curative option for patients with small localised HCCs. However, critics note that overall, long-term survival rates are higher after resection, and that recur-rence remains an issue, while proponents emphasise that it in volves fewer complications and shorter hospital stays. In other cases, only liver transplantation is potentially curative, but pa tients are either ineligible or confronted with a donor shortage.
Lectures focusing on ablation, resection and transplantation will outline strategic considerations involved in deciding with which of these approaches to proceed, and scrutinise the strength and weaknesses of both the methods and of studies that seek to compare them.
Intermediate HCCClassi�cations
The Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer classifications, while widely endorsed, have also long been criticised for providing insuf-ficient options for practitioners confronting intermediate HCC. Now some medical centres are considering adopting the new Hong Kong Liver Cancer classification, and guidelines issued by the European Association for the Study of the Liver and the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer are also receiving much attention. A lecture dedicated to these two approaches will outline their structure and review how they impact daily practice for IRs.
Percutaneous Treatment Options
Transarterial chemoembolisation remains the standard treat-ment for intermediate HCC, but most expect the use of drug- eluting beads (DEB-TACE) to further improve results. In the mean-time, radioembolisation has become an important therapy op tion, but still faces scepticism regarding its competitive effi ca cy for HCC beyond the early stage. Treating intermediate HCC with ablation is an even newer concept. Three presentations will close -ly examine these approaches, presenting results ob tained and limitations confronted, including from a comparative perspective.
Systemic Therapy
The multi-faceted nature of clinical practice for intermediate HCC includes systemic therapy with drugs, and several on-going trials are now evaluating the potential of combining such therapy with loco-regional treatments. A presentation on sys-temic therapies will explore the biological background, outline results achieved, and address at which point such treatments are best combined with IR procedures.
Colorectal liver metastases Practitioners have long emphasised the importance of tailored therapy, but does the concept represent reality or mere hope? A session jointly held with the European Society for Medical Onco -logy will consider this important question in the context of colo-rectal liver metastases, in addition to reviewing other aspects of CRCLM, including the current status of systemic therapy, tumour response following TACE/SIRT, and radioembolisation for palliation.
Other sessionsA Hands-on Workshop will tackle image-guided tumour ablation in the liver, providing a tangible introduction to the procedure and the devices it involves, and a Video Learning Session will demon-strate how to perform a wide variety of percutaneous liver treatments.

ECIO investigates…
In recent years, ECIO has witnessed an increase in the number of speakers and sessions addressing pulmonary cancers, both pri ma ry and metastatic. This is clearly a growing area of interest for prac ti-tioners of interventional oncology, and as the pool of case re- ports grows, so the indications for its use are growing ever clearer.
This year’s congress will feature a number of sessions presenting this data, and offering valuable advice on patient selection and op- timal delivery. These will cover a range of therapeutic applica tions, including thermal ablation, mechanical ablation and embolisation.
Lung metastasesCurrently, the main clinical areas of investigation for image-guid ed lung therapies are stage I non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and pulmonary metastases. The latter are a particu larly important area of investigation, as they are among the most fre quently oc curring metastases and are found in approximately 50% of autop sy patients. Metastatic lesions, by their very nature, are often small and multi-nodular, posing challenges for surgical resection.
Two promising alternatives for pulmonary metastases are abla-tion and stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT), and these will be examined more closely in Thursday’s Lung metastases Clinical Focus Session.
SBRT is an extra-cranial radiation therapy which is delivered in a single or small number of fractions. It is highly precise, and offers the possibility of controlling for target motion. Despite its advantages, there remain some limitations regarding the uncertainty of target definition, dose escalations and inaccu-rate patient positioning. No clinical trials have yet been completed, and further investigation is needed.
Likewise, the evidence supporting ablation is far from complete, but early data indicates that it entails few complications, has short recovery times and is repeatable. Most importantly of all, the literature has demonstrated no deterioration of pulmonary function, which is an important consideration in both the cura-tive and palliative setting. Ensuring clear margins remains a chal -lenge, although using a thermocouple can improve outcomes.
The latest evidence for both therapies, and technical advice of evaluating lung function and performing adequate follow-up, will be discussed in this Clinical Focus Session, as well as in the dedicated How to follow up patients: clinical and imaging session taking place on Wednesday.
However, ablative techniques are not the only IR procedure available, and preliminary studies into the palliative use of intra-arterial techniques have shown promise. This is mainly used for symptomatic control of bleeding in patients with
lung metastases, and is achieved by selective embolisation of the branches of the pulmonary artery. Friday’s Clinical Focus Session on Intra-arterial therapies: what is the evidence? will examine the current data for its use in the pulmonary setting and others.
Multidisciplinary decision-makingClearly, for both metastatic and primary disease, much more re- search is needed. Even when clearer indications are eventually defined, each individual patient will still present with a unique set of circumstances and determining the optimal therapy (or therapy combination) is best done in a multidisciplinary setting.
To demonstrate and encourage this process, a Multidisciplinary Tumour Board session will be devoted to examining lung cancer cases. Practitioners from a range of specialties will be represen-ted, and the session will undoubtedly be informative for all involved in this field.
ComplicationsAblative therapies are not without risk, and it is essential that practitioners are aware of possible complications, and how to deal with them. Pneumothorax is the most common com-plication, but is easily managed with quiet respiration, and adequate pain control and sedation.
The second most frequent complication is pleural effusion, which will be explicitly addressed in Wednesday’s Symptomatic cancer treatment session. Generally, exercising due caution will prevent this occurring, but if faced with pleural effusion, meth-ods such as observation, thoracentesis and pleural catheter placement can be employed. Pain is managed with anti-inflam-matory agents, narcotics, anti-convulsant drugs, intercostal nerve block, and hot or cold packs; those wishing to learn more about this topic should attend Saturday’s Video Learning Session, How I do it: pain management, for step-by-step guidance through the use of the PleurX system.
Pseudo-aneurysms and delayed acute haemoptysis are very rare and cavitation can occur in large ablations, but does not necessarily indicate infection. A detailed discussion of all lung ablation complications will be given by noted expert Robert Suh, in Saturday’s interactive session, Management of complications II.
The full spectrumThe programme for this year’s ECIO will cover the full spectrum of image-guided therapies for pulmonary cancers, from patient se- lection to follow-up. Various ablation modalities will be discussed in a variety of settings, with a Hands-on Workshop on Image-guid-ed tumour ablation – lung giving participants an op por tunity to fa- miliarise themselves with a number of devices, and a Video Learn-ing Session guiding attendees through pulmonary cryoablation.

ECIO investigates…
Interventional radiological treatment of tumours in solid organs, such as primary or secondary liver tumours or renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is already well established, or has at least gained major attention in interdisciplinary discussions. Moreover, interventional radiology is well established in the musculoskeletal (MSK) field, mainly in the fields of pain man-agement (e.g. perineural or facet joint infiltration), but a wide range of tumour-related interventions are also well accepted.
Primary MSK cancers are comparatively rare, but bone meta-stases, which can derive from any type of primary cancer but occur frequently in prostate, breast and lung cancer patients, are quite common. Furthermore, there are a substantial num-ber of benign tumours, such as osteoid osteoma and osteo-blastoma, typically occurring in patients aged between 5 and 25 years, or rarer benign tumours, such as desmoid tumours and haemangiomas, which may present a more aggressive growth pattern.
Interventional radiology can be performed for curative or palliative/symptomatic treatment in functionally stable or unstable, benign or malignant tumours. Furthermore, in many cases interventional therapy offers local tumour control (e.g. by thermal destruction), minimisation of fracture risks by stabilisa-tion (e.g. by cementoplasty) together with pain therapy (e.g. destruction of nociceptors).
In general, all these interventional techniques can be used in combination with other therapies (e.g. chemotherapy, radia-tion therapy or surgery), but can also offer the possibility of symptom relief where other therapies have failed.
Thermal ablationThermal ablative techniques, in particular radiofrequency ablation (RFA), are the method of choice for benign lesions such as osteoid osteoma and many haemangiomas (mostly vertebral localisation), but are also applied for destruction in malignant tumours. The extensive experience in applying RFA to bone tumours confirms RFA as an easy and safe technique in many different skeletal localisations with a low risk of com-plications. The database for other thermal ablative techniques (microwave ablation, cryoablation, HIFU or laser) is still very limited and is often only single-centre-based, and more data is needed to establish the clinical value of each of these techniques.
Transvascular techniquesTransarterial tumour embolisation in hypervascularised tumours (e.g. bone metastasis from RCC) is used to make another therapy easier (e.g. for reducing blood loss during surgery) or for debulking in large symptomatic tumours where other therapies have failed or are not amenable.
Augmentation therapiesMusculoskeletal tumours, whether primary or metastatic, can often compromise the structural integrity of the affected bone. Whether this occurs due to invasion and displacement of the healthy tissue, or as a result of therapeutic intervention, stabilising the bone is important for both patient mobility and resolution of potential pain.
A number of percutaneous approaches are currently used, ranging from cementoplasty to the image-guided percutane-ous placement of screws or pins (osteosynthesis), or frequently, a combination of the two. As with thermal ablative procedures, knowledge of the local anatomy and real-time monitoring is essential to avoid complications.
This important topic will be addressed in Wednesday’s Top tips session, where speakers will address both spinal ablation and bone consolidation, along with other therapies of growing interest.
Pain therapy/managementBeside thermal ablation of osteoid osteomas, which can be very painful, most MSK interventional procedures need no specific pain management and can be performed under local anaesthesia or mild analgo-sedation. It can be even crucial to get the immediate feedback from the patient with respect to pain to avoid serious complications. Nevertheless, interven-tional therapy of many painful MSK lesions results in imme- diate pain relief – almost “on the table”.
Risks and complicationsLocal interventional therapy in MSK structures is straight-forward in most cases. Nevertheless, in some cases inter-disciplinary assistance is mandatory to get the right access to a specific lesion (e.g. by mechanical bone drill). The procedure can also be challenging due to the close anatomical proximity of crucial structures (e.g. nerve structures) necessitating special techniques for cooling (e.g. perfusion with a coolant, skin cooling pads) or dislodgement (e.g. hydrodissection).
MSK programme at ECIO 2015To ensure comprehensive educational opportunities, the ECIO 2015 programme will be covering MSK tumour therapies in a range of session formats. A Hands-on Workshop, Clinical Focus Sessions, Interactive Sessions and even a Video Learning Session will guide delegates through both the theory and the practice of a range of treatments. Most importantly of all, the evidence for their use will be examined alongside radiothera-peutic and surgical options, equipping those practicing MSK interventions with the skills needed to be clinically involved in their hospital’s tumour boards.

Four workshops will each target a specific organ (MSK, lung, liver and kidney). The cases are presented by leading ablation experts with many years of experience in an informal inter-active setting allowing for questions and discussion. A range of different ablation systems (RFA, cryotherapy and microwave ablation) and some image guidance technology will be accessible to the participants during the sessions for ex-vivo demonstrations.
Learning objectives– To learn how to handle different energy sources and the
respective equipment for tumour ablation– To obtain a good understanding of the range of available
ablation techniques and their proper clinical application– To learn what factors are predictive of success and failure
in order to determine the best indication and optimal combination of therapies
– To understand the main reported complications of ablation and the basics of preventing and managing them
– To learn about “tips and tricks” with the use of clinical cases– To generally learn about the indications of other medical
and surgical treatments
