Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

Highly active hepatitis B virus (HBV) is known to be associated with poor outcomes in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). This study aims to investigate the relationship between HBV status and HCC recurrence after liver transplantation. The study retrospectively analyzed HCC patients undergoing liver transplantation in 2 centers between January 2015 and December 2020. We reviewed post-transplant HBV status and its association with outcomes.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
First Affiliated Hospital, Zhejiang University School of Medicine

Diagnostic Test: Diagnosis of postoperative recurrence of liver cancer
HBV serological markers, such as hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg), hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg) and HBV DNA were monitored regularly. The alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) level was determined every 1-2 months. The ultrasound or computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging was performed every 3-6 months in HCC patients who underwent liver transplantation.

Shulan (Hangzhou) Hospital

Diagnostic Test: Diagnosis of postoperative recurrence of liver cancer
HBV serological markers, such as hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg), hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg) and HBV DNA were monitored regularly. The alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) level was determined every 1-2 months. The ultrasound or computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging was performed every 3-6 months in HCC patients who underwent liver transplantation.
