        Transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) is the recommended treatment modality for the intermediate stage or the Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer (BCLC) stage B hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients. However, due to the clinical heterogeneity in this population of patients, only some have a favorable outcome after TACE. In our study, we discovered that the intermediate stage HCC patients with smaller tumor size or within the up-to-7 criteria showed better survival outcomes for TACE. BCLC stage B subgroup is useful to predict refractoriness of HCC to TACE and to establish future therapeutic strategies. |
