Study Arms (2)
HAIC plus Lenvatinib and PD-1 inhibitors
Each patient should receive at least 2 cycles of HAIC, 2 cycles of PD-1inhibitors and take at least 2 months of Lenvatinib. The interval between HAIC and Lenvatinib plus PD-1 inhibitors should be within 2 months.
Lenvatinib plus PD-1 inhibitors
Each patient should receive at least 2 cycles of PD-1 inhibitors and 2 months of Lenvatinib.
Interventions
Hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy including FOLFOX and RALOX
PD-1 inhibitors including Camrelizumab, Sintilimab, Tislelizumab
Eligibility Criteria
Patients with high tumor burden advanced HCC with PVTT who received HAIC in combination with PD-1 inhibitors and Lenvatinib under real-world practice conditions.
You may qualify if:
- Age 18 to 80 years old;
- Diagnosis of HCC was confirmed by histologic or cytologic analysis or clinical features according to the American Association for the Study of Liver Diseases (AASLD) guideline;
- At least one measurable intrahepatic lesion as per the RECIST 1.1 criteria;
- HCC staging of the patients are consistent with both the BCLC stage C and the CNLC stage IIIa.
- Presence of PVTT;
- Patients received a first-line lenvatinib+PD-1 (L+P) inhibitors combination or that of HAIC+lenvatinib+PD-1 inhibitors (H+L+P). More specifically, the administration of lenvatinib was concomitant with PD-1 inhibitors, and HAIC was performed either concurrently with, or up to 2 months before or after the L+P inhibitors combination therapy. Patients in the H+L+P group should undergo at least 2 cycles of HAIC, receive at least 2 cycles of PD-1 inhibiors and take at least 2 months of lenvatinib. Patients in the L+P group should receive at least 2 cycles of PD-1 inhibiors, and take at least 2 months of lenvatinib.
- Child-Pugh class A or B7;
- Tumor burden meets up to 7 out criteria.
You may not qualify if:
- Patients who took anti-tumor treatments before the combination therapy;
- With other malignant tumors;
- incomplete data.
