AbstractObjective To observe the survival and side effects of stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) in large hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients. Methods Twenty-eight large HCC patients undergoing SBRT in 302 Military Hospital from November 1,2011 to January 31,2014 were observed. The prescribed dose was 39-61Gy/3-9f. Among them,20 patients simultaneously received transcatheter arterial embolization. The overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS) and local control (LC) rates were calculated by using Kaplan-Meier method. The influencing factors of OS were analyzed by Cox regression model. The influencing factors of radiation-induced liver disease (RILD) were identified by using Logistic regression analysis. Results The 1-,2-,3-and 5-year OS rates were 75%,57%,54% and 22%, respectively. The 1-,2-,3-and 5-year PFS rates were 59%,47%,36% and 18%, respectively. The 1-,2-,3-and 5-year LC rates were 92%,86%,86% and 86%, respectively. Four patients suffered from RILD and none died from RILD. Child-Pugh classification was the influencing factor of OS and RILD. Conclusion It is preliminarily believed that SBRT is an alternative and safe treatment for patients with large HCC.
