44 Sorafenib and hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy for advanced HCC with PVTT A total of 110 patients were observed between February 2008 and May 2013 in seven Korean centers. 50 HAIC, 60 sorafenib No significant difference in the objective response rate (p = 0.214). The median overall survival (OS) HAIC vs sorafenib group: 7.1 vs. 5.5 months, p = HAIC is comparable with sorafenib in terms of OS and TTP in advanced HCC patients with PVTT Song DS, et al. J Gastroenterol 2015;50:

45 Conclusions TACE is not recommended in HCC patients with PVTT, especially with Main PVTT. Only small portion of the cases with PVTT respond to TACE, potential life-threatening AE should be aware of when performing the procedure. Determinants of response to TACE before the procedure are not yet identified. Further data from prospective studies or RCT are required for TARE with Yttrium-90 or HAIC. Systemic therapy with sorafenib is still the standard of care as the 1 st line treatment for unresectable advanced HCC with PVTT 45
