Variations in liver cancer attributable to hepatitis virus variations
Significant clinical variations exist among patients with the most
common type of liver cancer called hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC),
depending on the viral cause of the disease -hepatitis B virus (HBV) or
hepatitis C virus (HCV). These differences suggest that hepatitis status
should be considered when developing treatment plans for newly
diagnosed patients, according to researchers at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center.
