Study Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine if TACE plus Sorafenib will improve outcome in patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) not amenable to surgery.

Primary Outcome

Progression free survival (PFS) is calculated as the time interval between the date on which a patient first received protocol treatment and the documented date of disease progression or death. For a surviving and progression-free patient, PFS is censored by the last follow-up date when that patient is documented to be progression free. Progression is defined using RECIST v1.0, as a 20% increase in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions, or a measureable increase in a non-target lesio
