Abstract Purpose To investigate the efficacy and safety of tyrosine-kinase inhibitor (TKI) combined with iodine-125 seed brachytherapy (TKI-I) versus TKI alone for patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) refractory to transarterial chemoembolization (TACE). Methods Data of patients with TACE-refractory HCC who received TKI (sorafenib or lenvatinib) or TKI-I from September 2018 to December 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. A propensity score matching (PSM) was performed to diminish potential bias. The primary endpoints were overall survival (OS) and time to progression (TTP). Tumor responses and treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) were also compared between the two groups. Results A total of 132 patients were included in this study. Under PSM, 48 paired patients were selected for comparison. The median OS was 23.2 (95% CI 20.9–25.1) months in the TKI-I group versus 13.9 (95% CI 11.1–16.7) months in the TKI group (P |
