No results posted yet for this study

Summary

This is a prospective, randomized study designed to compare the efficacy of transcatheter hepatic artery chemoembolization (TACE) combined with bevacizumab arterial perfusion versus conventional therapy in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) invading the portal vein. The study aims to evaluate the effects on tumor load, angiogenesis, and survival outcomes.

Conditions

  • Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC)

Interventions

DRUG

Bevacizumab Arterial Perfusion plus TACE

The intervention consists of a combination treatment. Patients undergo transcatheter hepatic artery chemoembolization (TACE), a procedure involving localized delivery of chemotherapy and embolization of the tumor-feeding arteries. This is combined with a targeted arterial perfusion of bevacizumab, a monoclonal antibody that inhibits vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF).

PROCEDURE

Conventional Therapy

Patients in the control group received conventional therapy, which typically consists of TACE alone for this patient population. This involves the selective catheterization of hepatic arteries supplying the tumor, followed by the infusion of chemotherapeutic agents and an embolic agent to induce tumor necrosis.
