| Core Tip |
A recent study by Lu et al examined postoperative combined therapy (PCT) for hepatitis B virus-associated hepatocellular carcinoma (HBV-HCC). While the findings provide important insights, it is essential to acknowledge several significant limitations. These include the potential for selection bias, a small sample size, and an insufficient focus on monitoring hepatitis B virus reactivation in detail. Future research should prioritize prospective, randomized controlled trials and adopt biomarker-driven approaches to advance the knowledge of the efficacy and safety of PCT. Moreover, extending follow-up periods and fostering global collaboration could enhance treatment outcomes and more effective patient care strategies in managing HBV-HCC. |
