Using trial sequential analyses, we also showed that additional patients might be needed to reach firm evidence to accept or refute the superiority of TAE/TACE over no intervention.2Oliveri RS Wetterslev J Gluud C Transarterial (chemo)embolisation for unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma.Cochrane Database Syst Rev. 2011; 3 (CD004787.)PubMed Google Scholar Our systematic review has substantial methodological advantages over earlier attempts to summarise TAE/TACE trials.3Llovet JM Bruix J Systematic review of randomized trials for unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma: chemoembolization improves survival.Hepatology. 2003; 37: 429-442Crossref PubMed Scopus (2621) Google Scholar These advantages include assessment of trial quality on the basis of empirical evidence, adequate statistics for time-to-event data (ie, hazard ratios), and trial sequential analyses.2Oliveri RS Wetterslev J Gluud C Transarterial (chemo)embolisation for unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma.Cochrane Database Syst Rev. 2011; 3 (CD004787.)PubMed Google Scholar In Llovet and Bruix's meta-analysis,3Llovet JM Bruix J Systematic review of randomized trials for unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma: chemoembolization improves survival.Hepatology. 2003; 37: 429-442Crossref PubMed Scopus (2621) Google Scholar assessments of trial quality were not based on empirical evidence.

Forner and colleagues question our inclusion of several randomised trials and our choice of a 10% relative risk reduction. However, exclusion of such “ineligible” trials only reinforces our conclusions that we lack any support for TAE/TACE (appendix). Furthermore, the only intervention effect one can hope for is a more modest effect than a 10% relative risk reduction (appendix). We therefore continue to advocate for more efforts to investigate the benefits and harms of TACE through adequately powered and bias-protected trials. Such trials could give Forner and colleagues a needed reality check. RSO and JW declare that they have no conflicts of interest. CG is co-ordinating editor of The Cochrane Hepato-Biliary Group.

An Australia survey1 showed that 99% of patients refused to enter a screening versus no screening trial. Even if up to 5% accepted, such a proportion would not be representative and results would be questioned by those wanting high-level evidence. The bulk of available information suggests that screening is beneficial. Full-Text PDF" @default.
