What this Trial Is About

The presence of certain mutations in HCC, such as TERT and TP53, have a suspected or proven prognostic role in resected patients, but lack a morphological or immunophenotypic counterpart, which would allow us to define which tumours are rationally candidate for molecular biology analysis. The identification of a histological and immunohistochemical algorithm to determine which HCCs to take to NGS for prognostic purposes will save time and economic costs in the laboratory by rationalising available resources. In the future, the application of the immunohistochemical and molecular algorithm on biopsy could allow better prognosis and predictivity even before surgery/therapy.
