Condition: Hepatocellular Carcinoma · Liver Transplantation · Sponsor: The Affiliated Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital of Nanjing University Medical School
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the second commonest cause of cancer death worldwide. Liver transplantation (LT) is the best curative treatment of HCC meeting Milan/UCSF criteria. Milan (solitary tumour \<5cm, or up to 3 tumours, each \<3cm) and University of California San Francisco (UCSF) criteria (solitary tumour ≤6.5cm, up to 3 tumours with none \>4.5cm, and total tumour diameter ≤8cm) provide the benchmark requirements for LT, at which a 5-year survival of \>70% and recurrence rate ranging from 5-15% can be achieved. Recently, FOLFOX (Oxaliplatin and 5-fluorouracil) based hepatic artery infusion chemotherapy (HAIC) exhibited high response rate for advanced HCC. Neo-adjuvant TAI for the HCC patients with beyond criteria serving as a down-staging method for the advanced HCC to meet Milan/UCSF criteria,and qualify for LT. This study is to compare the impact on survival of neo-adjuvant TAI for patients with beyond Milan/UCSF Criteria HCC who underwent LT.
