Sirolimus Use in Liver Transplant Recipients With Hepatocellular Carcinoma: A Randomized, Multicenter, Open-Label Phase 3 Trial

Edward K. Geissler, +68 more
- 01 Jan 2016 - 
TL;DR: This trial provides the first high-level evidence base for selecting immunosuppression in LTx recipients with HCC and reveals that low-risk, rather than high- risk, patients benefited most from sirolimus; furthermore, younger recipients (age ⩽60) also benefited, as well siro Limus monotherapy patients.
Journal ArticleDOI

A prospective randomised, open-labeled, trial comparing sirolimus-containing versus mTOR-inhibitor-free immunosuppression in patients undergoing liver transplantation for hepatocellular carcinoma

Andreas A. Schnitzbauer, +52 more
- 11 May 2010 - 
TL;DR: If the hypothesis is correct that mTOR inhibition can reduce HCC tumour growth while simultaneously providing immunosuppression to protect the liver allograft from rejection, patients should experience less post-transplant problems with HCC recurrence, and therefore could expect a longer and better quality of life.
