Groups2

Neither group, or both, names a comparator, so the groups keep ClinicalTrials.gov's order.

GroupTitleDescriptionWith the outcomeAnalysedClinicalTrials.gov code
Group 1Arm 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.
65110EG000
Group 2Arm 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.41108EG001
