Carcinoma, Hepatocellular

Investigating patient characteristics of intermediate stage hepatocellular carcinoma patients treated with Nexavar and their distribution to different treatment groups as well as determining effectiveness and safety

Trial purpose

The study aims to investigate patient characteristics of intermediate stage hepatocellular carcinoma patients treated with Nexavar and their distribution to different treatment groups as well as determining efficacy and safety parameters.

Key Participants Requirements

Sex

Both

Age

0 - N/A
  • - Patients with a diagnosis of unresectable intermediate stage hepatocellular carcinoma (BCLC-B) for whom the decision has been taken by the investigator to prescribe Nexavar (the BCLC intermediate stage (BCLC-B) consists of Child-Pugh A and B patients with large/multifocal HCC who do not have cancer related symptoms, macrovascular invasion or extrahepatic spread).

  • - Prior targeted therapy for hepatocellular carcinoma.

Primary Outcome

  • Distribution of intermediate stage hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients treated with Nexavar to different treatment groups will be evaluated by the relative frequency of patients in each treatment group.

    Safety Issue:
    No
  • Characteristics of patients with intermediate stage HCC (BCLC-B) treated with Nexavar will be determined by evaluating demographic data, medical history, previous treatment of HCC, specific concomitant conditions (amongst others).

Secondary Outcome

  • Overall Survival is measured as the time interval from start of Nexavar therapy to the date of death, due to any reason.
