Core Tip |
Mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) inhibitors have been shown to reduce the risk of tumour recurrence after liver transplantation for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). However, its role in established post-transplant HCC recurrence is uncertain. A retrospective study of 143 patients who developed HCC recurrence after liver transplantation was performed. Seventy-nine (55%) patients received mTOR inhibitor-based immunosuppressive regime while 64 (45%) of them did not. The median post-recurrence survival was 21.0 ± 4.1 mo in mTOR inhibitor group and 11.2 ± 2.5 mo in the control group. Multivariate cox regression analysis confirmed mTOR inhibitor was independently associated with improved post-recurrence survival (P = 0.04, OR 0.482, 95%CI: 0.241-0.966). |
