Core Tip |
There are several prognostic systems for the prediction of treatment outcome following trans-arterial chemoembolization for hepatocellular carcinoma; however, their discriminatory abilities in real-world patients need to be validated and compared to select the optimal system for clinical decision-making. We found that the six-and-twelve criteria were closely correlated with radiological response, modified Hepatoma Arterial-embolization Prognostic version 3 predicted overall survival best, and ABCR (alpha-fetoprotein, Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer, Child-Pugh and Response) was a reliable predictive system for post repeated trans-arterial chemoembolization survival. The sequential combination of these systems performed well in outcome prediction. |
