Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
Sorafenib will be administrated at a dose of 400mg o.d. before the first TACE. After 2days drug rest, TACE will be conducted. Sorafenib will be resumed at a dose of 400mg o.d. from 3 days after TACE(the resumption day can be postponed until 21 days after TACE). When tolerability is confirmed at 1 week after resumption, the dose of sorafenib will be increased to 400mg b.i.d. When tumor increases, TACE will be repeated.
Control group
TACE will be conducted at scheduled day. When tumor increases, TACE will be repeated.
The treatment regimen will be continued until untreatable progression which is defined as follows:
* Child-Pugh grade C
* Tumor growth (125 percent from baseline status)
* Vascular invasion(Vp3,Vp4)
* Extra hepatic spread which size is more than 10mm

TACE with sorafenib
TACE(on demand) with sorafenib till untreatable progression
TACE with sorafenib
Sorafenib will be administrated at a dose of 400mg o.d. before the first TACE. After 2days drug rest, TACE will be conducted. Sorafenib will be resumed at a dose of 400mg o.d. from 3 days after TACE(the resumption day can be postponed until 21 days after TACE). When tolerability is confirmed at 1 week after resumption, the dose of sorafenib will be increased to 400mg b.i.d. When tumor increases, TACE will be repeated.
TACE alone
TACE(on demand) till unreatable progression
TACE alone
TACE will be conducted at scheduled day. When tumor increases, TACE will be repeated.
