A Clinical Randomized Control Trial of Combination TACE With and Without Low-Molecular-Weight Heparin in Hepatocellular Carcinoma
100 patients will be randomly assigned to receive either TACE alone or TACE plus LMWH. A
block of every 4 participants and a stratified randomization according to portal vein cancer
emboli will be used to restrict randomization. LMWH consisted of nadroparin Ca will be given
at a dose of 4100 U twice daily during 6 weeks after TACE. The time to progression(TTP) and
overall survival within two years will be used to evaluate the effect of LMWH on HCC.
