Abstract

BACKGROUND: Predicting post-treatment prognosis in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients undergoing conventional transarterial chemoembolization (cTACE) is challenging due to tumor heterogeneity. We here assessed the utility of the modified albumin‒bilirubin grade and α-fetoprotein (mALF) score for predicting the prognosis of cTACE-treated HCC patients.
