Efficacy of Lenvatinib Versus Sorafenib in the Treatment of Unresectable Hepatocellular Carcinoma: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.
Introduction: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) was the third leading cause of cancer-related deaths in the world. Current global treatment recommendations suggest lenvatinib and sorafenib have been approved to treat unresectable HCC. Studies comparing lenvatinib versus sorafenib for unresectable HCC have shown conflicting results and no structured review has yet evaluated its efficacy and safety. This article aims to estimate the efficacy of lenvatinib and sorafenib in patients with unresectable HCC.
Methods: This research was conducted using the PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses) strategy. Literature searches were conducted through PubMed, ScienceDirect, Google Scholar, Cochrane Library, SpringerLink, and Ebsco. After quality assessment using the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale (NOS) and Cochrane Risk-of-bias, also data extraction, Review Manager 5.4 and RStudio 2024.04.1 software were used for analysis of overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS), objective response rate (ORR), disease control rate (DCR).
Results: A total of 9 studies were included, comprising 3,821 samples. All studies were retrospective studies. Our meta-analysis showed that OS and PFS in patients receiving lenvatinib were significantly better than patients receiving sorafenib with a protective hazard ratio (HR) of 0.70 (95%CI: 0.57-0.87, p=0.001) and 0.65 (95%CI: 0.54-0.78; p < 0.00001) respectively. Moreover, in the viral patients group, lenvatinib showed similar OS compared with sorafenib (HR=1.02; 95%CI: 0.77-1.36, p=0.87). Lenvatinib exhibited better ORR (OR = 7.87; 95%CI: 2.02-30.75; p = 0.003) and DCR (OR = 1.99; 95%CI: 1.53-2.60; p < 0.00001) compared with sorafenib.
Conclusion: Lenvatinib provided significant benefits in OS, PFS, ORR, and DCR compared to sorafenib in patients with unresectable HCC.
期刊介绍:
Cancer is a very complex disease. While many aspects of carcinoge-nesis and oncogenesis are known, cancer control and prevention at the community level is however still in its infancy. Much more work needs to be done and many more steps need to be taken before effective strategies are developed. The multidisciplinary approaches and efforts to understand and control cancer in an effective and efficient manner, require highly trained scientists in all branches of the cancer sciences, from cellular and molecular aspects to patient care and palliation.
The Asia Pacific Organization for Cancer Prevention (APOCP) and its official publication, the Asia Pacific Journal of Cancer Prevention (APJCP), have served the community of cancer scientists very well and intends to continue to serve in this capacity to the best of its abilities. One of the objectives of the APOCP is to provide all relevant and current scientific information on the whole spectrum of cancer sciences. They aim to do this by providing a forum for communication and propagation of original and innovative research findings that have relevance to understanding the etiology, progression, treatment, and survival of patients, through their journal. The APJCP with its distinguished, diverse, and Asia-wide team of editors, reviewers, and readers, ensure the highest standards of research communication within the cancer sciences community across Asia as well as globally.
The APJCP publishes original research results under the following categories:
-Epidemiology, detection and screening.
-Cellular research and bio-markers.
-Identification of bio-targets and agents with novel mechanisms of action.
-Optimal clinical use of existing anti-cancer agents, including combination therapies.
-Radiation and surgery.
-Palliative care.
-Patient adherence, quality of life, satisfaction.
-Health economic evaluations.
