Intervention model description:
This is a multicenter, open-label trial, randomized controlled trial to evaluate the
efficacy and safety of TACE-AB-I compared with TACE-AB for the treatment of HCC with
branch PVTT.
Primary purpose:
Treatment

None (Open Label)
Intervention:
Intervention type:
Procedure
Intervention name:
I-125 Seeds Brachytherapy in PVTT
Description:
Iodine125 seed implantation into the PVTT was conducted 3-7 days after TACE when the
results of the liver function tests were comparable to those obtained before TACE.
Pre-procedural planning was conducted using a three-dimensional conformal radiation
therapy treatment planning system (TPS) to determine the number of Iodine125 seeds
required, the target location for implantation, the best percutaneous puncture site and
the access route. The targeted zone for implantation was the tumour thrombosis in the
segmental portal vein, left/right portal vein. Implantation was guided by CT, and the
Iodine125 seeds were implanted into the PVTT using 18 G needles and the implantation gun
that housed the Iodine125 seeds in the cartridge chamber.

Summary:
The present study aimed to assess the effectiveness of the combination treatment of
Atezolizumab/Bevacizumab, transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) and I-125 Seeds
Brachytherapy (TACE-AB-I) in patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and
portal vein tumor thrombosis (PVTT). The investigators confirmed that the combination
therapy yielded better survival data than the combined administration of
Atezolizumab/Bevacizumab and TACE (TACE-AB) in patients with advanced HCC and Type I/II
PVTT (Based on Cheng's PVTT classification).
Detailed description:
This is a multicenter, open-label trial, randomized controlled to evaluate the efficacy
and safety of TACE-AB-I compared with TACE-AB for the treatment of HCC with branch PVTT.
234 HCC patients with branch PVTT will be enrolled in this study. The Patients will be
treated with TACE-AB-I or TACE-AB using a 1:1 randomization scheme. TACE will be
performed for the patients after randomization. Atezolizumab/bevacizumab (1,200 mg
atezolizumab plus 15 mg/kg bevacizumab intravenously every 3 weeks) will be started at
3-7 days after the first TACE and I-125 Seeds Brachytherapy and last until disease
progresses, intolerable toxicity, withdrawal of informed consent, loss of follow-up,
death, or other circumstances that require termination of treatment, whichever occurs
first. For patients in the TACE-AB-I arm, iodion-125 seeds will be implanted into the
PVTT (according to the pre-operative planning) under CT guidance within 3-7 days after
the first TACE. TACE and iodion-125 seeds implantation can be repeated on demand during
follow-up based on the evaluation of laboratory and imaging examination.
