Additional information regarding sample selection. | Participation in the study was offered to all new patients who were consecutively referred to the liver unit of the Jean Verdier Hospital for diagnosis and management of cirrhosis since January 1999 and who fulfilled the inclusion criteria. |
Database objective | |
Main objective | The present database aims at enabling the study of the relationship between alcoholic cirrhosis or HCV-related cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma while providing information on the clinical follow-up of patients. The database is complemented by biological samples : cryopreserved DNA and serum of patients included in the study, in order to enable genetic and molecular analysis in cirrhotic patients. |
Inclusion criteria |
- histologically proven cirrhosis, whatever the time of biopsy; - no infection from the human immunodeficiency virus or hepatitis B virus; - no evidence of HCC at the time of inclusion as judged by negative ultrasonographic findings, and a serum α-fetoprotein (AFP) level of inferior to 50 ng/ml; - residence in France; - acceptance of a regular follow-up and periodical HCC screening; - Caucasian origin; - written informed consent for the use of frozen DNA. |

Participant monitoring |
Yes |
Details on monitoring of participants | All patients were followed-up and evaluated after their inclusion at a minimum of 6-month intervals by physical examination, liver ultrasonography, and serum AFP level assessment, and in case HCC was suspected: computed tomodensitometry, and/or magnetic-resonance imaging and/or a guided liver biopsy were performed according to the recommendations of the Barcelona Conference. HCC was diagnosed according to one of the following criteria: histological evidence or convergent demonstration of a focal lesion superior to 2 cm in size, and arterial hypervascularization, as assessed by two different imaging techniques, or a combination of one imaging technique that showed this morphological aspect plus a serum AFP level superior or equal to 400 ng/ml. |
