Summary: Sorafenib shows better outcomes in patients with liver transplantation (LT) compared to those without LT, likely due to smaller intrahepatic HCC and preserved hepatic function in LT recipients. Multiple subgroup analyses and propensity-score matching confirm the superior efficacy of sorafenib in the LT setting.

Summary: This study investigated the efficacy of liver-directed concurrent chemoradiotherapy (LD-CCRT) compared to sorafenib in hepatocellular carcinoma patients with portal vein tumor thrombosis (PVTT). The results showed that LD-CCRT led to significantly improved survival compared to sorafenib, and patients who underwent surgical treatment after LD-CCRT had even longer overall survival.

Summary: The study constructed a predictive model using various analysis methods to successfully identify high-risk patients for early HCC recurrence, and predict patients' response to adjuvant sorafenib treatment. The model can optimize risk stratification for early HCC recurrence and evaluate patient response to adjuvant sorafenib after liver resection.

Summary: The study revealed that selective internal radiation therapy (SIRT) has a negative impact on liver function in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma, which may affect patient outcomes. Patients should be carefully selected before undergoing SIRT and treatment techniques should be optimized to maximize protection of non-target liver parenchyma.

Summary: Liver stiffness quantified using magnetic resonance elastography is a potential biomarker for predicting poor overall survival and significant liver injury in advanced hepatocellular carcinoma patients treated with sorafenib.

Summary: This meta-analysis explored the efficacy and safety of sorafenib in hepatocellular carcinoma patients after radical surgery, revealing that sorafenib can improve overall survival, recurrence-free survival, and reduce recurrence rates without intolerable side effects. More evidence is needed for a definitive conclusion.

Summary: This study demonstrated that the combination of fucoidan and sorafenib could overcome sorafenib resistance in hepatocellular carcinoma cells by interacting with cell membrane EGFR and suppressing EGFR redistribution and downstream signaling. The simultaneous treatment of fucoidan and sorafenib might serve as a potential therapeutic strategy against sorafenib-resistant HCC.

Summary: Spontaneous rupture of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a rare complication, and its management requires considering the clinical conditions of the patient and the best curative treatment. We reported a case of an emergency robotic liver resection for a ruptured HCC in an elderly patient. Minimally invasive liver resection is currently recognized as a safe and feasible approach for the treatment of HCC in elderly patients.

Summary: This study examines the impact of public insurance status on the survival outcomes of HCC patients after liver resection in China. The results show that underinsured HCC patients have worse survival outcomes after liver resection. This may be due to the limited access to care for underinsured patients, but further exploration is needed for conclusive evidence.

Summary: This study found that the functional liver imaging score (FLIS) based on preoperative gadoxetic acid-enhanced MRI can predict posthepatectomy liver failure (PHLF) in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients. FLIS has a higher predictive power than the MELD score, ALBI score, and ICG-R15 clearance.

Summary: This study aimed to investigate the clinical benefits of locoregional radiation therapy (RT) before, after, and concurrent with sorafenib therapy for Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer (BCLC) stage C hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients. The results showed that locoregional RT was associated with significantly longer survival in BCLC stage C HCC patients who were treated with sorafenib, especially in patients treated with sorafenib for 12 weeks or more. Incorporating locoregional RT could improve the dismal prognosis for these patients.

Summary: The study found that the combination of camrelizumab and sorafenib significantly improved the overall response rate and progression-free survival of patients with advanced HCC, but had no significant impact on overall survival. The combination therapy group exhibited more adverse events in terms of efficacy, but most of these adverse events were easily controlled after treatment. Further prospective randomized trials are needed to confirm the potential clinical benefits of this combination therapy.

Summary: This study found that sarcopenia is associated with adverse outcomes after liver resection for HCC, with higher rates of major complications, blood transfusion, hospitalization expenses, and longer hospital stay. Evaluating sarcopenia upon admission can help classify high-risk patients and reduce the risk of major complications.

Summary: Multiple studies have found that liver resection (LR) can improve survival outcomes in intermediate- and advanced-stage hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients. However, there is limited knowledge regarding the benefits of LR for recurrent HCC patients who have undergone systemic treatment. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of LR on advanced-stage HCC patients who received sorafenib as a systemic treatment.

Summary: Laparoscopic liver resection (LLR) is widely accepted in the surgical treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) due to its advantages such as earlier recovery and fewer complications compared to open liver resection (OLR). LLR is technically feasible for selected patients with HCC even in challenging situations. Robot-assisted liver resection (RALR) has also gained popularity and is expected to become the main approach for minimally invasive surgery in the future.
