Rg3 in Combination With TACE in Hepatocellular Carcinoma Patients With High Expression of Notch1

March 28, 2016 updated by: ShenFeng, Eastern Hepatobiliary Surgery Hospital
In order to provide a new option for clinical anti-angiogenesis therapy in hepatoma, a randomized controlled study is planed to confirm the effect of Rg3 in combination with TACE on angiogenesis and tumor treatment in advanced hepatocellular carcinoma patients with high expression of Notch1.
