Lenvatinib Plus DEB-TACE With/Without FOLFOX-HAIC for Large HCC With PVTT

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.

About this study

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.

  • Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status ≤1
  • Child-Pugh class A/B
  • adequate hematologic and organ function, with leukocyte count 3.0 109/L, neutrophil count 1.5 109/L, platelet count 75 109/L, hemoglobin 85 g/L, alanine transaminase and aspartate transaminase 5 upper limit of the normal, creatinine clearance rate 1.5 upper limit of the normal, and prothrombin time prolongation <4 s

Treatment and study plan

Len+DEB-TACE+HAIC

Procedure

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

Procedure

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.

Primary outcomes

  1. Time to progression (TTP)

    Time frame: 3.5 years

    defined as the time from treatment initiation to the first occurrence of disease progression.

Secondary outcomes

  1. objective response rate (ORR)

    Time frame: 3.5 years

    defined as the percentage of patients with complete or partial response

  2. Disease control rate (DCR)

    Time frame: 3.5 years

    defined as the percentage of patients with complete or partial response, or stable disease

  3. overall survival

    Time frame: 3.5 years

    defined as the time from treatment initiation until death from any reason.

  4. treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs)

    Time frame: 3.5 years

    assessed based on Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events version 5.0
