Hepatic Arterial Infusion Chemotherapy Is a Feasible Treatment Option for Hepatocellular Carcinoma: A New Update

Background Hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy (HAIC) is one option for treating massive tumors and unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). However, there is a lack of remedial treatment after these treatments are ineffective or failed. Summary Some studies have discovered that HAIC has greater survival in patients with advanced HCC. A previous study has shown that HAIC is effective in the treatment of advanced HCC, and the data on randomized clinical trials are limited and unclear. Key Message More clinical trials and research are needed in order to make HAIC a standard and recommended therapy for advanced HCC. Our review focuses on the clinical applications of hepatic artery infusion treatment.
