Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
The primary endpoint for the analysis on overall treatments is the incidence of complications classified according to the Clavien-Dindo classification. The primary endpoint for the analysis on the patients who underwent microwave ablation as first-line treatment is the duration of local control.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
The secondary endpoint for the analysis on overall treatments are the target lesion response based on the Modified RECIST from contrast-enhanced CT/MRI (short-term therapeutic effects). Additionally, the number of treatments required to achieve CR (complete response) and the duration of ablation will be analyzed. Furthermore, a stratified analysis will be conducted based on patient background factors for each outcome. The secondary endpoint for the analysis on the patients who underwent microwave ablation as first-line treatment are the periods of overall survival and recurrence-free survival. Furthermore, a stratified analysis will be conducted based on patient background factors for each outcome.
