Core Tip	In the present study, we aimed to compare the efficacy of different chemotherapeutic agents during conventional transarterial chemoembolization (cTACE) in the treatment of unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma. Our study indicated that for patients treated with cTACE, the chemotherapeutic agent irinotecan (CPT-11) was significantly associated with improved overall survival and longer time to progression compared with gemcitabine or doxorubicin. There were no significant differences in clinical adverse events between the three agents. CPT-11 thus appears to be a promising agent when combined with cTACE for the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma.
