Zusammenfassung: | Background
To evaluate the factors influencing the achievement of a sustained complete response (CR) and overall survival (OS) in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients undergoing transarterial chemoembolization (TACE).
Methods
We retrospectively reviewed the records of HCC patients who underwent TACE as the first modality of treatment between 2014 and 2019. We investigated the factors affecting sustained CR (no recurrence within 6 months) and OS (time from diagnosis until either death or last follow-up).
Results
The study enrolled 161 patients; 159 (98.8%) had cirrhosis. Post-TACE, 19.9% (32/161) achieved sustained CR. In the multivariate analysis, a tumor size 100 ng/mL (HR 2.082;
