Sorafenib in Liver Function Impaired Advanced Hepatocellular Carcinoma
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
Due to the HBV and HCV infection, about 55% hepatocellular carcinoma patients happened in China. Among them, only 10% patients can be diagnosed in early stage. Sorafenib increased PFS and OS in advanced hepatocellular carcinoma patients with liver function of Child-Pugh class A patients, but the result for Child-Pugh class B patients is unclear.
