Metroticket 2.0 Calculator for HCC Survival

Metroticket 2.0 Calculator for HCC Survival

This calculator estimates 5-year HCC-specific survivability after liver transplantation using the Metroticket 2.0 model. It uses the largest vital tumor diameter, number of vital nodules, and AFP.
AFP must be greater than 0 because the formula uses log10(AFP).
5-Year Survivability: %
Predicted 5-year HCC-related death risk: %
Important: Metroticket 2.0 is a prognostic aid. This result reflects HCC-specific post-transplant survival rather than all-cause survival, and it should be interpreted in the full transplant-selection context.

This implementation uses the published Metroticket 2.0 equation based on:

  • largest vital tumor diameter (cm)
  • number of vital nodules
  • AFP (ng/mL)

The published model estimates the 5-year risk of HCC-related death after liver transplantation as:

5-year risk = 1 − exp{ −exp[(0.227 × (largest tumor size + number of nodules)) + (0.817 × log10(AFP)) − 0.014] }

So the calculator below reports:

5-year HCC-specific survivability = (1 − risk) × 100.
