}Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the most common malignancies worldwide; however, the prognosis of HCC patients remains poor. This poor prognosis is mainly attributed to the high rate of intrahepatic and distant metastasis. HCC often occurs in a hypoxic environment and hypoxia can activate metastatic programs, ultimately leading to tumor recurrence or metastasis. Thus, the discovery and subsequent development of novel agents to…
