About this trial

Studies have shown that combination therapy of TACE with Lenvatinib could achieve better survival outcomes than TACE alone for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) at BCLC B stage. However, whether patients could benefit from the ablation for intermediate recurrent HCC (RHCC) is still need high quality clinical evidence. This study is to evaluate the efficacy of ablation combined with TACE and Lenvatinib for the intermediate-stage RHCC.

Eligibility criteria
