Sponsor: CHA University
Conditions: Advanced Hepatocellular Carcinoma
Interventions: Atezolizumab plus bevacizumab
Countries: South Korea
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the most frequent causes of cancer-related deaths globally and in Korea. Many patients diagnosed at advanced stage, and systemic therapy is mainstay of treatment in patients with advanced HCC. However, immune-checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) monotherapy did not significantly improve overall survival in phase III studies. According to previous retrospective analyses, ICI treatment in advanced HCC showed different organ-specific responses. The intrahepatic HCC was the least responsive organ to ICI treatment. The failure of phase III trials of ICI monotherapy may have been attributed to different organ-specific response pattern of ICIs. Combination of atezolizumab plus bevacizumab is expected to overcome the immunosuppressive microenvironment of liver and may enhance intrahepatic response of ICI.
