Core Tip	Sorafenib is a multi-targeted tyrosine kinase inhibitor that was the first systemic therapy in the world to improve the survival rate of patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in a phase Ⅲ trial. However, the overall outcomes are sometimes unsatis-factory and there is a need for second line therapies in patients with advanced HCC who still progress after the use of sorafenib. Novel systemic approaches are needed in advanced HCC.
