Intervention name: TACE ± Systemic therapy
Description: TACE: conventional TACE (cTACE) or drug-eluting beads TACE (dTACE); Systemic therapy: programmed cell death protein-1 (PD-1)/programmed cell death ligand-1 (PD-L1) inhibitors, vascular endothelial growth factor -tyrosine kinase inhibitor (VEGF-TKI)/bevacizumab, PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors+VEGF-TKI/bevacizumab, radiotherapy or chemotherapy.
Arm group label: Clinically significant portal hypertension (CSPH) group
Arm group label: non-CSPH group

Summary: This study aims to evaluate the impact of non-invasive CT-based Hepatic Venous Pressure Gradient (HVPG) assessment on prognosis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients treated with transarterial chemoembolization (TACE).

Detailed description: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the sixth most common cancer worldwide and the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths globally. Transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) is recommended as standard therapy for intermediate-stage HCC according to the current guidelines and is also the most widely used in advanced HCC in real-world practice. Portal hypertension increases the risk of hepatic decompensation, which impairs survival in patients with HCC. Clinically significant portal hypertension is defined as >10 mmHg increase in the hepatic vein pressure gradient (HVPG), and the current gold standard for its assessment is direct measurement, through a transjugular approach. However, due to its invasive character and high effort, HVPG measurement is not a standard tool in the initial diagnostic evaluation of patients with HCC. This study aims to evaluate the impact of non-invasive CT-based Hepatic Venous Pressure Gradient (HVPG) assessment on prognosis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients treated with transarterial chemoembolization (TACE).
