Summary
Advanced HCC represents a high unmet medical need with a poor prognosis and few therapeutic
options. Patients who present with HCC beyond the currently accepted Milan criteria are not
eligible to be listed for liver transplantation. The proposed study offers local regional
therapy to a defined population of patients beyond Milan criteria as an attempt to downstage
them to eligibility for liver transplant.
