Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
I. Median progression-free survival (PFS).
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
I. Overall survival (OS). II. Time to radiographic progression (TTRP). III. To evaluate the safety of the combination of sorafenib (sorafenib tosylate) and Yttrium-90; adverse events (National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events version 4.0 \[NCI-CTAE v 4.0\]).
OTHER OBJECTIVES:
I. Predictive biomarkers of response to therapy and survival: will assess pre-treatment plasma level of insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) as above, and assess its predictive ability of time to progression (TTP) and OS.
OUTLINE:
Patients receive sorafenib tosylate orally (PO) twice daily (BID). After 4 weeks, patients receive yttrium Y 90 glass microspheres intra-arterially (IA). Courses of sorafenib tosylate repeat every 4 weeks in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up every 3 months.

Treatment (sorafenib tosylate, TheraSphere)
Patients receive sorafenib tosylate PO BID. After 4 weeks, patients receive yttrium Y 90 glass microspheres IA. Courses of sorafenib tosylate repeat every 4 weeks in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Eligibility Criteria
Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.
Inclusion Criteria
* Life expectancy of at least 12 weeks (3 months)
* Patients with histological or cytologically documented hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) (documentation of original biopsy for diagnosis is acceptable if tumor tissue is unavailable) or clinical diagnosis by American Association for the Study of Liver Diseases (AASLD) criteria in cirrhotic subjects is required; for subjects without cirrhosis histological confirmation is mandatory
* Patients must have at least one tumor lesion that meets the following criteria: the lesion can be accurately measured in at least one dimension according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumor (RECIST)
* The target lesion(s) has not been previously treated with local therapy (such as surgery, radiation therapy, hepatic arterial therapy, chemoembolization, radiofrequency ablation, percutaneous ethanol injection or cryoablation)
* Patients who have received local therapy, such as surgery, radiation therapy, hepatic arterial embolization, chemoembolization, radiofrequency ablation, percutaneous ethanol injection or cryoablation are eligible if the previously treated lesions have progressed or recurred can be identified as target lesions; local therapy must have been completed at least 4 weeks prior to the baseline scan
* Patients who have received yttrium-90 microspheres are not eligible
* Patients who have an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status (PS) =\< 1
* Patients who are categorized under Barcelona-Clınic Liver Cancer (BCLC)-C stage
* Cirrhosis grade of Child-Pugh class A; Child-Pugh status should be calculated based on clinical findings and laboratory results during the screening period
* Platelet count \>= 60 x 10\^9/L
* Hemoglobin \>= 8.5 g/dL
* Total bilirubin =\< 2.5 mg/dl
* Alanine transaminase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) =\< 5 x upper limit of normal
* Serum creatinine =\< 1.5 x the upper limit of normal
* Prothrombin time (PT)-international normalized ratio (INR) =\< 2.3 or PT =\< 6 seconds above control
* All acute toxic effects of any prior treatment have resolved to National Cancer Institute-Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI-CTCAE) v4.0 grade 1 or less at the time of signing the informed consent form (ICF)
* Women of childbearing potential must have a negative serum pregnancy test performed within 7 days prior to the start of study drug; post-menopausal women (defined as no menses for at least 1 year) and surgically sterilized women are not required to undergo a pregnancy test
* Subjects (men and women) of childbearing potential must agree to use adequate contraception beginning at the signing of the ICF until at least 30 days after the last dose of study drug; the definition of adequate contraception will be based on the judgment of the principal investigator or a designated associate
* Subject must be able to swallow and retain oral medication
Exclusion Criteria
* Patients who are eligible for curative treatment (ablation or resection or transplantation)
* Previous or concurrent cancer other than HCC unless without evidence of disease for 5 or more years prior to entry, except cervical cancer in-situ, treated basal cell carcinoma, or superficial bladder tumor
* Tumor replacement \> 70% of total liver volume based on visual estimation by the investigator OR tumor replacement \> 50% of total liver volume in the presence of albumin \< 3 mg/dL
* Contraindications to angiography and selective visceral arterial catheterization
* Any known contraindications to sorafenib including allergic reaction, pill-swallowing difficulty, uncontrolled hypertension or history of cardiac disease, significant gastrointestinal (GI) bleed within 30 days, metastatic brain disease, renal failure requiring dialysis
* Concomitant treatment or within 28 days of one of the following:
* Any other systemic anticancer agent other than agents used for cancer prevention
* Subjects who have used strong cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4) inducers (e.g., phenytoin, carbamazepine, phenobarbital, St. John's Wort \[hypericum perforatum\], dexamethasone at a dose of greater than 16 mg daily, or rifampin \[rifampicin\], and/or rifabutin) within 28 days before treatment
