Inclusion Criteria

Patients with a Karnofsky (or equivalent) performance status > 60 and an expected survival of > 2 months
Patients agreeing to use a medically effective method of contraception
Patients able to understand and give written informed consent
The center of the tumor mass must be < or = 14 cm from the anterior or lateral abdominal wall as determined by cross sectional imaging measured at baseline. This is required for optimal retention of MTC-DOX by the magnetic field. If more than one tumor mass is present, all of the treated tumor masses must meet this criterion

Exclusion Criteria

Women who are pregnant or lactating
Patient's with metastatic liver cancer, or other primary liver cancer excluding HCC, with diffuse disease that does not have focal area(s) conducive to local regional therapy
Patients with the following laboratory abnormalities:Hemoglobin < 10.0 g/dL;Granulocyte count < 1,500 per mm3;Platelet count < 50,000 per mm3; Lymphocyte count < 0.5 x 10 to the 9th per L; Total bilirubin >/= 3.0 mg/dL;AST or ALT >/= 5x the upper limit of normal;INR >/= 1.3; Creatinine >/= 2.0 mg/dL
Patients with either significant cardiovascular disease or any other organ system dysfunction which, in the opinion of the investigator, would either compromise the patient's safety or interfere with the evaluation of the test material. Patients with evidence of a myocardial infarction within six (6) months prior to this trial will be excluded.
Patients with an indwelling cardiac pacemaker, cerebral aneurysm clips, or any other indwelling device or appliance that could be adversely affected by the use of the external magnet

Patients with documented evidence of hemachromatosis or hemosiderosis
Patients with CT or ultrasound evidence of portal vein invasion or thrombosis
Patients who have had prior anthracycline therapy with a left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) <50%, as measured by either multigated radionuclide angiography (MUGA) scan or echocardiogram.
