NCT03191123

Brief Summary

This clinical trial aims to compare hepatectomy with Transarterial Chemoembolization (TACE) for Hepatic Cellular Cancer With Solitary Huge Tumor (≥5cm). All patients will be divided into two group.One group will receive hepatic resection, while an another equivalent group patients will be treated with Transarterial Chemoembolization.

Study Arms (2)

Hepatic resection

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Indications for Hepatic resection were the presence of appropriate residual liver volume determined by volumetric computed tomography and lack of hepatic encephalopathy.

Procedure: hepatic resection

Transarterial Chemoembolization(TACE)

EXPERIMENTAL

Transarterial Chemoembolization is performed in less than one week after clinical diagnosis.

Procedure: TACE

Interventions

The aim of this intervention is to reach curative resection.

Also known as: control
Hepatic resection
TACEPROCEDURE

The aim of this intervention is one of the palliative treatment.

Also known as: trial
Transarterial Chemoembolization(TACE)
