Video

The panelist discusses how for patients initially eligible for embolization, systemic therapy may be combined with transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) upfront for high-risk disease (ie, large tumor burden, elevated AFP) or reserved for progression after regional therapy in lower-risk cases. Treatment decisions should be individualized based on tumor characteristics, liver function, and patient preferences.
