This trend, however, conflicted with a tendency to a higher rate of overall CR after cTACE at the same time point (58.1% vs 52.2%), due to the lower occurrence of new nodules in cTACE (5 out of 20, 25%) than in DEB-TACE patients (9 out of 23, 39%) at the time of progression, although this difference did not reach statistical significance ( P =0.353).
