Groups2
Neither group, or both, names a comparator, so the groups keep ClinicalTrials.gov's order.
| Group | Title | Description | With the outcome | Analysed | ClinicalTrials.gov code |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Group 1 | Arm A (Sorafenib and TACE) | Patients receive sorafenib tosylate PO BID in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Beginning within 2 weeks after a stable dose of sorafenib tosylate is reached, patients undergo TACE comprising doxorubicin hydrochloride, mitomycin C, and cisplatin (this option may only be utilized for patients registered prior to addendum #3); conventional chemoembolization comprising doxorubicin hydrochloride only; or chemoembolization comprising LC bead and doxorubicin. Treatment with TACE repeats approximately every 4 weeks for up to 4 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. | 85 | 118 | EG000 |
| Group 2 | Arm B (Placebo and TACE) | Patients receive placebo PO BID in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Beginning within 2 weeks after a stable dose of placebo is reached, patients undergo TACE as in Arm A. | 88 | 117 | EG001 |
