Brief Summary
The MUTHEC project aims to describe the mutational and transcriptomic landscape of HCC treated by curative treatments (resection, radio frequency ablation, transplantation) as well as advanced HCC together with the analysis of circulating tumor DNA.

Study Arms (1)
Patients with HCC
The cohort is composed of patients with HCC with available tumor and non tumor samples collected retrospectively. These patients have HCC of different stages (localized and advanced stages) It is an observational retrospective study.
Eligibility Criteria
Patients diagnosed with hepatocellular carcinoma
You may qualify if:
- Written consent of the patient according to the French Law: the French Liver Biobanks network - AFAQ NF S96-900 and Hepatobio bank
- Histologically proven hepatocellular carcinoma
- Available frozen samples
- HCC assessible to a curative treatment (Treated by resection, liver transplantation, radio frequency ablation) or advanced HCC with available biopsy
You may not qualify if:
- Less than 18 years old
- Pregnancy at the date of the sample
- Parafinn embedded tissue only available
