Trial Outcomes & Findings for Sorafenib Tosylate and Yttrium Y 90 Glass Microspheres in Treating Patients With Liver Cancer That Cannot Be Removed by Surgery (NCT NCT01900002)

NCT ID: NCT01900002

Last Updated: 2021-12-30

Results Overview

Will be monitored using the method of Thall et al. Kaplan-Meier method will be used to estimate median progression free survival (PFS) and the 95% confidence interval. Log rank test, univariate and multivariate Cox proportional hazards regression models will be used to identify prognostic factors for progression free survival (PFS).
