Brief Title: HAIC Plus Sorafenib Versus TACE Plus Sorafenibfor Advanced HCC
Official Title: The Efficacy and Safety of Hepatic Arterial Infusion Chemotherapy Plus Sorafenib Compared With Transarterial Chemoembolization Plus Sorafenib in Patients With BCLC C Stage Hepatocellular Carcinoma
Study ID: NCT02856126
Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy (HAIC) compared with transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) in patients with BCLC stage hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).
Detailed Description: Transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) is the most widely used palliative treatment for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients. Our previous prospective study also revealed that TACE confers a survival benefit to patients with HCC and portal venous tumor thrombus (PVTT). Recently, the results of our preliminary pilot study suggested that, compared with TACE, hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy (HAIC) may improve the survivals for patitens with BCLC stage C HCC. Thus, the investigators carried out this prospective randomized control study to find out it.
