Summary

This study looked at 715 patients with very large liver cancers (over 10 cm) to see if giving a combination of local treatments (like chemo directly into the liver) and body-wide treatments (targeted drugs and immunotherapy) before surgery helps them live longer. Patients were divided into groups based on whether they got this pre-surgery therapy or had surgery right away. The goal was to compare survival and safety between the approaches.
