Primary outcomes

  1. To compare the overall survival of brivanib versus sorafenib in subjects with advanced HCC who have not received prior systemic treatment

    Time frame: Survival will be assessed continuously

Secondary outcomes

  1. To compare the time to progression (TTP) (investigator assessed using modified RECIST criteria for HCC

    Time frame: Every 6 weeks

  2. To compare the investigator assessed objective response rate (ORR) and disease control rate (DCR) using modified RECIST criteria for HCC

    Time frame: Every 6 weeks

  3. To determine duration of response, duration of disease control, and time to response (TTR)

    Time frame: Every 6 weeks

  4. To assess the safety profile of brivanib and sorafenib

    Time frame: Every 6 weeks

  5. To explore PK and exposure-response in the study population

    Time frame: Every 6 weeks

  6. To compare time to symptomatic progression

    Time frame: Every 6 weeks

  7. To compare health-related quality of life

    Time frame: Every 6 weeks
