Core Tip Glypican-3 (GPC3) is known to be a specific and available molecular marker for the diagnosis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). However, the prognostic value of GPC3 overexpression in patients with HCC is less researched and remains controversial. We performed the meta-analysis including six eligible studies and demonstrated that GPC3 overexpression was associated with poor overall survival and disease-free survival in HCC. We also found that GPC3 expression was closely related with tumor vascular invasion, hepatic cirrhosis, tumor grade and tumor stage in HCC.
