Procedure

Trans-Arterial Chemo-Embolization Therapy

Primary outcomes

  1. To compare the Overall Survival (OS) of HCC patients who receive brivanib as adjuvant treatments to TACE therapy, with the OS of HCC patients who receive matched placebo with TACE therapy

    Time frame: Survival will be assessed continuously

Secondary outcomes

    Time frame: Every 8 weeks

  2. To compare the time to extrahepatic spread or vascular invasion in the brivanib and placebo arms

    Time frame: Every 8 weeks

  3. To determine the total number of TACE sessions in the brivanib and placebo arms and to compare the rate of TACE sessions in the brivanib and placebo arms

    Time frame: End of Study

  4. To evaluate the safety of brivanib in combination with TACE
