The median number of prior TACE sessions was 4 (range=2\u201311). Best index tumor response was complete response in 31 (75.6%) patients, partial response in 6 (14.6%), and stable disease in 3 (7.3%), yielding an objective response rate of 90.2%. Median TTLTP was not reached at the time of analysis. Median TTP was 6.5 months (95% confidence interval [CI]=3.1\u20138.8). Median OS was 31.8 months (95% CI=19.4\u2013not reached). Among 25 patients with disease beyond the Milan criteria, 20 (80.0%) were successfully downstaged to within the Milan criteria, of whom seven subsequently underwent curative-intent surgery. Longer OS was observed in surgical patients compared with non-surgical patients (\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">P<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009=\u2009.048).
