Transarterial chemoembolization combined with sintilimab and lenvatinib for the treatment of unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma: a retrospective study.
Background: The treatment of unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (uHCC) challenging due to unfulfilled clinical requirements.
Objective: To evaluate the safety and efficacy of combining transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) with sintilimab and lenvatinib in the treatment of uHCC.
Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the data of patients with uHCC who were treated with a combination of TACE, sintilimab, and lenvatinib between May 2019 and December 2021 at the Chinese PLA General Hospital. Systemic treatment was started 1 week after TACE was performed. Sintilimab was administered intravenously at a dosage of 200 mg every three weeks, and lenvatinib was given orally at dosages of 8 mg or 12 mg daily, contingent upon the weight of the patients. The primary endpoint was the objective response rate (ORR) as per the mRECIST. Secondary endpoints were disease control rate (DCR), progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS) and treatment-related adverse events (tr-AEs).
Results: A total of 32 patients were enrolled in the study. Among them, 9 patients were classified as Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer-B (BCLC-B), 23 patients were classified as BCLC-C, 14 patients diagnosed with portal vein tumors, and 12 patients were diagnosed with extra hepatic metastases. The ORR and DCR were 75% and 90.6% respectively, with 4 patients exhibiting (12.5%) complete response, 20 patients exhibiting (62.5%) partial response, 5 patients exhibiting (15.6%) stable disease, and 3 patients exhibiting (9.4%) progressive disease. With a median follow-up time of 19.6 months, the median PFS was 9.9 months, and the median OS was 33.3 months. A total of 31 patients experienced different degrees of tr-AEs, of which 2 were grade 3 tr-AEs.
Conclusion: The combination therapy of TACE, sintilimab, and lenvatinib demonstrates satisfactory efficacy in the treatment of uHCC with manageable tr-AEs.
