If patient progresses or falls outside of the Milan criteria on sorafenib patient can be treated per physician's discretion using local therapy.

Initially 5 patients will be entered on-study. If more than one patient experiences grade 4 hemorrhaging/bleeding following OLT the trial will be closed and sorafenib will not be considered safe and/or feasible. If no patient experiences this event 5 additional patients will be enrolled. At the end of the study sorafenib will be considered safe and feasible in this setting if no patient experience grade 4 hemorrhaging/bleeding following transplant. With this design, and assuming at least 3 of the 5 patients in each cohort undergo OLT, the likelihood of stopping early is \\<.04 if the underlying risk hemorrhages/bleeding are low (\\<5% each) whereas there is a \\>.42 chance of early termination if the risks are substantial (e.g. \\>.20 likelihood of dose limiting toxicity and \\>.30 likelihood of \\>grade 4 hemorrhages/bleeding). Overall the likelihood of accepting or not accepting sorafenib as safe and feasible are \\>.84, and \\<.16, respectively under these conditions.\n\nSecondary objectives:\n\n* Drop out rate\n* Time to progression prior to orthotopic liver transplant (OLT)\n* Waiting time.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': "Inclusion criteria:\n\n* Age \\> 18 years old\n* Confirmation of diagnosis of Hepato Cellular Carcinoma (HCC) and within Milan criteria awaiting liver transplant or going through evaluation for Liver Transplant.\n* Either histological confirmation or clinical diagnosis by American Association for the Study of Liver Diseases(AASLD) criteria (see Appendix 1) in cirrhotic subjects is required.
