The Overall Survival of Patients With Unresectable HCC in Real-life

Liver cancer is the fifth most common cancer and the second most frequent cause of cancer-related death globally. Hepatocellular carcinoma represents about 90% of primary liver cancers and constitutes a major global health problem. The pattern of HCC occurrence shows a significant geographical imbalance, with the highest incidence rates in East Asia (more than 50% of the cases occurring in China).

The aim of this study is to investigate the overall survival (OS) of patients diagnosed with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma under real-world practice conditions in Asia Pacific region.

Treatment and study plan

Primary outcomes

  1. Overall survival

    Time frame: Up to 5 years

    Overall survival (OS) is defined as the time (days) from the date of unresectable HCC diagnosis to the date of death, due to any reason. Patients alive or lost to follow-up at the time of analysis will be censored at their last date of follow-up

Secondary outcomes

  1. Progression-free survival (PFS)

    Time frame: Up to 5 years

    Progression-free survival (PFS) is defined as the time (days) from the start of treatment to the date of first observed disease progression (radiological or clinical, whichever is earlier) or death due to any cause, if death occurs before progression is documented

  2. Time to progression (TTP)

    Time frame: Up to 5 years

    Time to progression (TTP) is defined as the time (days) from the start of treatment to the first documented disease progression

  3. Duration of treatment

    Time frame: Up to 5 years

    Duration of treatment, defined by the time interval from the start of treatment to the day of permanent discontinuation of treatment (including death)

  4. Frequency and Severity of Adverse Events

    Time frame: Up to 5 years

    Safety will be evaluated by monitoring and recording the grade 3, 4 and 5 adverse events (AE) occurring during and after treatment throughout follow up of patients.
