Brief summary
The purpose of this study is to establish a personalized model of prognosis stratification for patients with advanced-stage hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) receiving transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) in combination with immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) and molecular target therapies.
Detailed description
In patients with advanced-stage hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), previous studies showed that transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) in combination with immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) and molecular target therapies exhibited better efficacy (PFS and OS) as compared to the ICIs and molecular target therapies. However, there is a lack of effective tools to select those who will benefit the most from that combination therapy. The purpose of this study is to establish a personalized model of prognosis stratification for patients with advanced-stage HCC who receive TACE and immune checkpoint ICIs plus molecular target therapies (including, VEGF-TKI/ bevacizumab). This real-world study may provide further information on treatment selection for clinical practice and trials.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Overall Survival(OS) | up to approximately 2 years | The OS is defined as the time from the initiation of any combination treatment to death due to any cause. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| PFS per Modified Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (mRECIST) | up to approximately 2 years | The PFS is defined as the time from the initiation of any combination treatment to the first documented progressive disease (according to mRECIST) or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first. |
| Objective response rate(ORR) per RESCIST 1.1 | up to approximately 2 years | The ORR is defined as the proportion of patients with a documented complete response(CR) or partial response(PR) per RECIST 1.1. |
| ORR per mRECIST | up to approximately 2 years | The ORR is defined as the proportion of patients with a documented CR or PR per mRECIST. |
| Duration of Response (DOR) per RESCIST 1.1 | up to approximately 2 years | DOR is determined by disease assessment and is defined as the time from the first documented evidence of a response of CR or PR until the first documented disease progression (according to RESCIST 1.1) or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first. |
| Progression free survival(PFS) per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors Version 1.1 (RECIST 1.1) | up to approximately 2 years | The PFS is defined as the time from the initiation of any combination treatment to the first documented progressive disease (according to RECIST 1.1) or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first. |
| Disease Control Rate (DCR) per RESCIST 1.1 | up to approximately 2 years | DCR is defined as the percentage of participants who have a best overall response of CR, PR, or stable disease (SD)per RESCIST 1.1. |
| DCR per mRECIST | up to approximately 2 years | DCR is defined as the percentage of participants who have a best overall response of CR, PR, or stable disease (SD) per mRECIST. |
| Adverse event(AE) per Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events(CTCAE) 5.0 | up to approximately 2 years | The percentage and degree of patients who experience at least one AE, whether or not considered related to the treatment, according to CTCAE version 5.0. |
| DOR per mRECIST | up to approximately 2 years | DOR is determined by disease assessment and is defined as the time from the first documented evidence of a response of CR or PR until the first documented disease progression (according to mRECIST) or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first. |
