5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The current study is a prospective, randomized, open, multi-center investigation. The aim of current study is to investigate whether the Recurrence-free Survival Rate (RFS)of the hepatitis B related -hepatocellular carcinoma subjects who have been treated by resection can be improved by peginterferon alfa-2a
Detailed Description
The subjects who have been treated by resection due to hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) will be randomized into 2 groups: the subjects in group A will be treated by Nucleotide analogues (NAs)( ETV, 0.5mg,qd;tenofovir disoproxil fumarate(TDF),300mg,qd;ADV,10mg,qd)for 96 weeks; the subjects in group B will be treated by peginterferon alfa-2a (135μg/week)combination with NAs (ETV\TDF\ADV)for 96 weeks.
