Clinical Trial Summary

This multicenter retrospective study evaluated consecutive patients with large HCC and PVTT who received lenvatinib plus DEB-TACE with/without FOLFOX-HAIC between July 2019 and June 2021. Tumor response, time to progression (TTP), overall survival (OS), and treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) were compared between the two groups.

Description:

Consecutive patients with large HCC and PVTT treated with lenvatinib plus drug-eluting bead transarterial chemoembolization (DEB-TACE) and hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy (HAIC) with oxaliplatin, fluorouracil and leucovorin (Len+DEB-TACE+HAIC) or lenvatinib plus DEB-TACE (Len+DEB-TACE) from July 2019 to June 2021 were screened. Tumor response was evaluated according to modified Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (mRECIST). Clinical outcomes, including tumor response, TTP, OS, and TRAEs were compared between the two groups.

Intervention

Procedure:
• Len+DEB-TACE+HAIC
Patients received TACE with drug-eluting beads and FOLFOX-HAIC. DEB-TACE and/or HAIC was repeated for viable tumors demonstrated by follow-up imaging in patients without worsening liver function or contraindications. Lenvatinib was orally administered at a dose of 12 mg/day (bodyweight 60 kg) or 8mg/day (bodyweight <60 kg). It was initiated within 7 days after the first DEB-TACE or DEB-TACE+HAIC and continued until unacceptable toxicity or disease progression occurred.
• Len+DEB-TACE
Patients received TACE with drug-eluting beads. DEB-TACE was repeated for viable tumors demonstrated by follow-up imaging in patients without worsening liver function or contraindications. Lenvatinib was orally administered at a dose of 12 mg/day (bodyweight 60 kg) or 8mg/day (bodyweight <60 kg). It was initiated within 7 days after the first DEB-TACE or DEB-TACE+HAIC and continued until unacceptable toxicity or disease progression occurred.
