Landscape of transarterial chemoembolization represented interventional therapy for hepatocellular carcinoma
This article discusses the article written by Tan <i>et al</i>. Transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) is one of the main treatment methods for advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). There are other vascular interventional therapies, including drug-eluting bead TACE, transarterial radioembolization, and hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy. TACE combined with anti-angiogenesis therapy may improve tumor control and prolong progression free survival. The combination therapy of TACE and immunotherapy may improve the clinical efficacy of HCC. In future research, more basic and clinical studies are needed to explore the immunogenic intervention therapy.
