Successful Liver Transplantation After Achieving Complete Clinical Remission of Hepatocellular Carcinoma With Combination Therapy of Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors and Targeted Agents: A Case Report
Immunotherapy, primarily with immune checkpoint inhibitors, has become pivotal in the treatment of advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), leading to significant tumor burden reduction. However, its applicability in liver transplantation remains controversial. Due to the potential risks of rejection limiting large-scale clinical trials and the incomplete understanding of underlying mechanisms, whether transplant recipients can benefit from immunotherapy remains uncertain. This report describes the application of immunotherapy in liver transplantation, wherein two patients achieved complete tumor remission after receiving immunotherapy combined with other treatments before transplantation, enabling successful liver transplantation surgeries. Additionally, one patient received combination therapy with tislelizumab and lenvatinib before transplantation (Case 2), representing the first reported case utilizing this combination therapy as a bridging treatment before LT.
期刊介绍:
Transplantation Proceedings publishes several different categories of manuscripts, all of which undergo extensive peer review by recognized authorities in the field prior to their acceptance for publication.
The first type of manuscripts consists of sets of papers providing an in-depth expression of the current state of the art in various rapidly developing components of world transplantation biology and medicine. These manuscripts emanate from congresses of the affiliated transplantation societies, from Symposia sponsored by the Societies, as well as special Conferences and Workshops covering related topics.
Transplantation Proceedings also publishes several special sections including publication of Clinical Transplantation Proceedings, being rapid original contributions of preclinical and clinical experiences. These manuscripts undergo review by members of the Editorial Board.
Original basic or clinical science articles, clinical trials and case studies can be submitted to the journal?s open access companion title Transplantation Reports.
