dc.description.abstractPurpose Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) recurrence after liver transplantation (LT) occurs in approximately 20% of recipients and these patients have median about one year survival after diagnosis. Some immunosuppressive drugs can cause development of HCC recurrence, on the other hand some immunosuppressive drugs may have a positive effect for preventing HCC recurrence. Thus, immunosuppression (IS) modification may play a role in preventing HCC recurrence. Methods In this review, we analyzed IS treatment strategy in two parts: before HCC recurrence following LT and after HCC recurrence following LT, and after HCC recurrence following LT. Results There is no proven, optimal IS protocol to prevent HCC recurrence after transplantation. Therefore, individualized immunosuppressive treatments should be tailored to the biological behaviour of HCC. Forcing the immune tolerance in terms of recurrence can probably be expressed as the most appropriate post LT period. Once HCC recurrence has developed after transplantation, again, there is no commonly accepted, optimal IS treatment, but there is a tendency to switch to IS modifications that include mTORi by minimizing CNIs and MMF. Conclusion There is a need for well-designed, randomized, controlled clinical studies with larger numbers of patients on this subject.en_US
