Radiographic and α-fetoprotein response predict pathologic complete response to immunotherapy plus a TKI in hepatocellular carcinoma: a multicenter study

Table 3 Relationship between combinations of AFP response and major radiographic response and pCR

AFP response^a	-	-	+	+
Major radiographic response	-	+	-	+
Non-pCR	9 (100)	2 (40)	2 (33)	0 (0)
pCR	0 (0)	3 (60)	4 (67)	5 (100)

Data are presented as n (%)
^aAFP response was defined as a change from a positive status at baseline to a negative status before resection. Of all 35 patients, 25 patients had positive AFP at baseline
