For this reason, various models based on pre-treatment factors such as tumor characteristics, Child-Pugh score, AFP levels, and post-treatment parameters such as an increase in Child-Pugh score compared with baseline, radiologic tumor response, and the post-TACE transient hypertransaminasemia have been proposed as reliable prognostic tools [20,21,22,23,24,25]. Here, AFP is linked to neoplasm.
