简要总结
TACE is widely used in patients with unresectable HCC. However, it is a non-curative approach; thus ,strategies to further improve the survival of these patients are needed. Sorafenib is regarded as standard treatment for advanced HCC. It is the first systemic therapy to demonstrate a significant survival benefit in HCC patients.The hypothesis is that the combination of TACE with sorafenib could improve the survival of patients with unresectable HCC.

研究组 & 干预措施
Group TACE
TACE will be carried out with chemotherapeutic agents and lipiodol; additional embolisation will be carried out with gelatin sponge particles. TACE will be repeated if clinically indicated
干预措施: TACE (Procedure)
Group Combination
All patients will receive Sorafenib (800 mg/day) p.o. beginning four weeks after the first TACE and every day thereafter until patient death or premature withdrawal from study
干预措施: sorafenib combined with TACE (Drug)
