Association of serum lactate dehydrogenase with prognosis and tumor metabolism in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma treated with atezolizumab plus bevacizumab therapy.
Purpose: Treatment outcomes are predicted by analyzing peripheral blood markers such as serum lactate dehydrogenase (LDH). We conducted this study to investigate whether serum LDH levels can predict the prognosis of patients treated with atezolizumab plus bevacizumab (ATZ/BEV) therapy for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and whether LDH levels correlate with metabolic changes.
Methods: We enrolled 66 HCC patients treated with ATZ/BEV. Based on the change in serum LDH levels before and after treatment, the patients were divided into two groups, and the prognosis of each group was examined. Moreover, the association of LDH levels with tumor metabolism was analyzed by fluorine-18 fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (18F-FDG PET/CT).
Results: There were 32 patients categorized as the LDH-decrease group. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis indicated worse progression-free survival (PFS) in the LDH-increase group than in the LDH-decrease group (p = 0.0029). Multivariate analysis showed that an increase in the LDH level was an independent risk factor for worse PFS (p = 0.0045). The baseline LDH level correlated significantly with a high maximum standardized uptake value of 18F-FDG, according to the PET/CT findings. Transcriptomic analyses of specimens resected after ATZ/BEV therapy showed downregulated mitochondria-related pathways.
Conclusion: Serum LDH levels are a potential prognostic marker and an indicator of tumor metabolism.
期刊介绍:
Surgery Today is the official journal of the Japan Surgical Society. The main purpose of the journal is to provide a place for the publication of high-quality papers documenting recent advances and new developments in all fields of surgery, both clinical and experimental. The journal welcomes original papers, review articles, and short communications, as well as short technical reports("How to do it").
The "How to do it" section will includes short articles on methods or techniques recommended for practical surgery. Papers submitted to the journal are reviewed by an international editorial board. Field of interest: All fields of surgery.
