dTACE-HAIC Combined With Bevacizumab and Atezolizumab for Huge Hepatocellular Carcinoma

This study intends to evaluate the efficacy and safety of drug-eluting transcatheter arterial embolization-hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy of oxaliplatin, 5-fluorouracil and leucovorin (dTACE-HAIC) plus Bevacizumab and Atezolizumab for patients with intermediate-advanced huge hepatocellular carcinoma.

About this study

Drug-eluting transcatheter arterial embolization (dTACE) and hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy (HAIC) of oxaliplatin, 5-fluorouracil and leucovorin are effective and safe for hepatocellular carcinoma. Atezolizumab + Bevacizumab was superior to sorafenib in overall survival in advanced hepatocellular carcinoma. The anti-VEGF combined programmed cell death protein-1 legend 1 (PD-L1) inhibitor were effective and tolerable in patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma. We aimed to describe the efficacy and safety of locoregional therapy (dTACE/HAIC) combined with Bevacizumab and Atezolizumab inhibitor in patients with huge hepatocellular carcinoma who can not receive radical therapy.

Treatment and study plan

dTACE-HAIC

Procedure

dTACE procedure was a 2.8-F microcatheter was super-selectively inserted into the tumor feeding artery using the coaxial technique. Then drug-eluting microspheres were used (100-300um). The microcatheter was reserved at the proper/left/right hepatic artery according tumor location. After the patient returned to the ward, the following FOLFOX-based regime was intra-arterially administered through the microcatheter. The FOLFOX regimen was administered via the hepatic artery as follows: 85 or 135 mg/m2 oxaliplatin from hour 0 to 2 on day 1, and 400 mg/m2 leucovorin from hour 2 to 4 on day 1, and 400 mg/m2 fluorouracil bolus at hour 5 on the day 1; and 2400 mg/m2 fluorouracil over 46 h on days 1 and 2. Hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy administration of oxaliplatin, fluorouracil, and leucovorin via the tumor feeding arteries every 4 weeks

Primary outcomes

  1. Objective response rate (ORR)

    Time frame: 12 months

    ORR, as determined based on tumor response according to RECIST 1.1, is defined as the proportion of all included patients whose best overall response (BOR) is either a complete response or partial response.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Progression-Free-Survival (PFS)

    Time frame: 12 months

    PFS is the length of time from the date of inclusion until tumor progression.

  2. Overall survival (OS)

    Time frame: 24 months

    OS is the length of time from the date of inclusion until death from any cause.
