Intervention name:
Adjuvant tislelizumab plus lenvatinib
Description:
Patients at high-risk of hepatocellular carcinoma recurrence after curative resection or
ablation will receive adjuvant tislelizumab plus lenvatinib treatment for six months, HCC
recurrence, or unacceptable adverse events.
Arm group label:
Adjuvant tislelizumab plus lenvatinib
Intervention type:
Drug
Intervention name:
Adjuvant tislelizumab
Description:
Patients at high-risk of hepatocellular carcinoma recurrence after curative resection or
ablation will receive adjuvant tislelizumab treatment for six months, HCC recurrence, or
unacceptable adverse events.
Arm group label:
Adjuvant tislelizumab
Summary:
Though hepatic resection and ablation are the curative treatments for patients with
hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), the 5-years recurrence-free survival is lower than 30%.
In recent years, several immune checkpoint inhibitors have been approved in advanced or
unresectable HCC. No study about the safety and efficacy of adjuvant immune checkpoint
inhibitors for patients with HCC after hepatectomy is reported.
Detailed description:
Hepatic resection and ablation are the best treatments for patients with early stage
hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) or selected intermediate or advanced disease. However, the
postoperative 5-years recurrent rate is up to 70%, for whom recurrence is a major cause
of death. In recent years, several immune checkpoint inhibitors have been approved in
advanced HCC by official guidelines. At the same time, four randomizead controlled trials
about adjvuant immune checkpoint inhibitors for postoperative HCC are ongoing. A
prospective cohort study found adjuvant immune checkpoint inhibitors with or without
tyrosine kinase inhibitors may improve recurrence-free survival of patients at high-risk
of HCC recurrence after curative resection (DOI: 10.1200/JCO.2023.41.16_suppl.4119.
Journal of Clinical Oncology 41, no. 16_suppl. 4119). Therefore, the investigators plan
to compare the safety and efficacy of adjuvant Tislelizumab plus lenvatinib to
Tislelizumab monotherapy for patients with high-risk factor of HCC recurrence after
curative resection and ablation in a multicentric, prospective study.
