Key clinical point: Compared with hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy (HAIC)+lenvatinib, the triple therapeutic regimen HAIC+lenvatinib+sequential ablation significantly improved the survival of patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) without compromising safety.
Major finding: Patients who received HAIC+lenvatinib+sequential ablation vs HAIC+lenvatinib had a significantly longer median overall survival (>30 vs 13.6 months; P = .010), progression-free survival (PFS; 12.8 vs 5.6 months; P = .001), and intrahepatic PFS (14.6 vs 6.4 months; P = .002) and similar incidence of grade 1-2 (P = .404) and 3-4 (P = .333) adverse events.
Study details: This multicenter retrospective study included 150 patients with advanced HCC who received HAIC+lenvatinib (n = 97) or HAIC+lenvatinib+sequential ablation (n = 53).
Disclosures: This study did not receive any funding. The authors declared no conflicts of interest.
