CIK Treatment for HCC Patient Underwent Radical Resection
- Conditions
- Carcinoma, Hepatocellular
- Interventions
- Biological: Cytokine-Induced Killer Cells
- Registration Number
- NCT01749865
- Lead Sponsor
- Sun Yat-sen University
- Brief Summary
This is a randomized controlled study. About 200 patients with hepatocellular carcinoma who underwent radical resection will be included. The patients will be randomized to group A (receive CIK treatment) or group B (just regularly follow up) without any anti-cancer treatment after resection of HCC, and the randomize ratio will be 1:1.
