| Core Tip |
To date, multiple treatment modalities of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) exist; however, only liver transplantation or surgical resection is curative. Hepatic resection remains the most frequently performed treatment modality, but curative resection cases are limited. Therefore, palliative treatment options are necessary, including transarterial chemoembolization, transarterial oily chemoembolization (TOCE), and hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy (HAIC). We conducted a clinical trial of combination therapy with miriplatin-TOCE and cisplatin-HAIC and demonstrated its safety and efficacy for patients with unresectable HCC. Here, we presented two cases who showed good response after the several sessions of the combination therapy. |
