Liver cancer breakthrough: skip surgery when tumors vanish?
NCT ID NCT05349331
Summary
This study aimed to find out if liver cancer patients still need surgery after their tumors disappear following initial drug and artery-based treatments. Researchers randomly assigned 74 patients whose tumors had vanished to either have surgery or be closely monitored without surgery. The goal was to compare survival and recurrence rates between the two approaches to guide future treatment decisions.
