    No benefit in adding Sorafenib to TACE in HCC patients, but SIRT gives 4-fold longer time to progression vs TACE, which means more patients get a transplant.  Survival for TACE vs SIRT censors at time of transplant is similar, but I presume that if you factored in the higher transplant rate with SIRT it would win hands down.  Interestingly, the 2nd trial couldn't accrue the intended number of patients because they all started demanding SIRT!
