Comparison of Treatment of Recurrent HCC With Repeat Hepatectomy,and TACE With AFP Conversion (HCCTACEAFP)

March 30, 2016 updated by: ShenFeng, Eastern Hepatobiliary Surgery Hospital

A Prospective Randomized Trial Comparing Treatment of Recurrent HCC With Repeat Hepatectomy,and Transcatheter Arterial Chemoembolization (TACE) With AFP Conversion

The purpose of this study is to compare the treatment of recurrent hepatocellular carcinoma with repeat hepatectomy,and transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) with AFP conversion.

Study Overview

Status

Completed

Detailed Description

Though many HCC patients have been benefited from hepatectomy treatment, still the high recurrence rate after the hepatectomy led to limited effectiveness.

This is the first study in same case system on comparison of effectiveness among repeat hepatectomy, and TACE with AFP conversion.
