Transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) is the standard of care for unresectable, untransplantable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Although TACE has a proven survival benefit, local recurrence is common and long-term survival rates are poor. Consistent with these clinical outcomes, recent data demonstrate that resistant HCC cells develop an adaptive response to nutrient deprivation on which they are dependent for survival (1).
