This is a prospective, interventional, open-label, single-arm, multicenter pilot study evaluating the safety, tolerability and maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of splenic Selective Internal Radiation Therapy (SIRT) using TheraSphere in adult patietns with gastrointestinal cancer and chemotherapy-induced thrombocytopenia with splenomegaly

Disqualifiers
Serum platelet count ≤35 000/ mm³.
History of prior partial splenic embolization, splenectomy or any significant medical history affecting the spleen including medical history of proven cirrhosis with at least one episode of decompensation in the last 6 months from enrolment.
