About this trial
This is an interventional treatment trial for HepatoCellular Carcinoma focused on measuring TACE, SBRT
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
- Age >18 years
- Eastern cooperative oncology group(ECOG) score 0 to 2
- Primary HCC
- HCC (single nodule ≤ 7 cm or max 3 nodules ≤ 3 cm)
- Child-Turgottei-Pugh A or B
- Unresectable lesion or medically contraindicated surgery or a case in which surgery was declined.
- No evidence of radiologically definable major vascular invasion or extrahepatic disease
- Previously incomplete TACE with radiologically defined residual disease after first TACE
- Informed consent
Exclusion Criteria:

Arms of the Study
Arm 1
Arm 2
Arm Type
Experimental
No Intervention
Arm Label
SBRT (Stereotatic body radiotherapy)
TACE (Transarterial chemoembolization)
Arm Description
Treatment of SBRT in HCC patients who have incomplete response after first TACE
Treatment of repeated TACE in HCC patients who have incomplete response after first TACE
Outcomes
Primary Outcome Measures
Local tumor control (efficacy fo SBRT)
To evaluate the effect of SBRT. Local tumor control is defined as the disappearance of any intraarterial enhancement in all target lesions.
Local tumor control will be measured on triphasic Computerized Tomography (CT) or Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). Patient will be asked to visit their study doctor for follow-up exams and imaging (CT or MRI) every 3 months.
Secondary Outcome Measures
progression free-survival
survival from SBRT to recurrence
overall survival
survival from SBRT to death
Radiation induced liver disease (RILD)
Liver toxicities were evaluated using Common Terminology Criteria of Adverse Events (CTCAE).
RILD was defined as elevated liver transaminases more than five times the upper normal limit or a worsening of Child-Pugh (CP) score by 2 within 3 months after SBRT.

5. Study Description
Brief Summary
Comparison of Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy (SBRT) and repeated transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) for Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC)as a Local Salvage Treatment after first incomplete TACE
Detailed Description
The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of SBRT after first incomplete TACE.
In HCC patients with incomplete TACE response, repeated TACE did not showed good response. In this case, SBRT could have better results than TACE.
