Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Overall survival among HCC patients as assessed by the albumin-bilirubin (ALBI) score [2 years]
We will compare the ability of ALBI score to predict overall survival among HCC patients versus Child Pugh and MELD scores
- Overall survival among HCC patients as assessed by the platelet-albumin-bilirubin (PALBI) score [2 years]
We will compare the ability of PALBI score to predict overall survival among HCC patients versus Child Pugh and MELD scores
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Overall survival among HCC patients according to treatment modality as assessed by the albumin-bilirubin (ALBI) score [2 years]
We will compare the ability of ALBI score to predict overall survival among HCC patients stratified according to treatment modality (Surgical resection, local ablation, trans-arterial chemoembolization, sorafenib and best supportive care)
- Overall survival among HCC patients according to treatment modality as assessed by the platelet-albumin-bilirubin (PALBI) [2 years]
We will compare the ability of PALBI score to predict overall survival among HCC patients stratified according to treatment modality (Surgical resection, local ablation, trans-arterial chemoembolization, sorafenib and best supportive care)
Eligibility Criteria
Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
• The diagnosis of HCC will be based on the presence of an arterial hypervascular focal lesion > 2 cm with rapid wash-out with a single imaging modality (triphasic computed tomography (CT), or dynamic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)) or two imaging modalities demonstrating the before mentioned feature for lesions < 2 cm with or without elevated serum alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) levels.
Exclusion Criteria:
-
Patients below 18 years old.
-
Patients with pre-existing other malignancies.
-
Patients with pre-existing gall bladder stones, benign strictures, or other biliary diseases.
-
Patients with pre-existing haematologic disorders.
-
Patients with proteinuria.
-
Missed follow-up.
