The therapeutic landscape for aHCC has evolved in recent years, necessitating a comprehensive analysis of treatment patterns, clinical outcomes, HCRU, and costs to contextualize emerging treatments. This study aimed to investigate these outcomes using real-world data from Ontario, Canada. This retrospective cohort study was conducted using linked administrative databases from April 2010 to March 2020. Patients diagnosed with aHCC were included, and their clinical and demographic characteristics were analyzed, as well as treatment patterns, survival, HCRU, and economic burden. Among 7322 identified patients, 802 aHCC patients met the eligibility criteria for inclusion in the study. Treatment subgroups included 1L systemic therapy (53.2%), other systemic treatments (4.5%), LRT (9.0%), and no treatment (33.3%). The median age was 66 years, and the majority were male (82%). The mOS for the entire cohort from diagnosis was 6.5 months. However, patients who received 1L systemic therapy had an mOS of 9.0 months, which was significantly higher than the other three subgroups. The mean cost per aHCC-treated patient was $49,640 CAD, with oral medications and inpatient hospitalizations as the largest cost drivers. The results underscore the need for the continuous evaluation and optimization of HCC management strategies in the era of evolving therapeutic options.
近年来,晚期肝细胞癌(aHCC)的治疗格局不断演变,因此有必要对治疗模式、临床结局、医疗卫生资源利用(HCRU)和成本进行全面分析,以便将新出现的治疗方法置于具体情境中。本研究旨在利用加拿大安大略省的真实世界数据调查这些结局。这项回顾性队列研究使用了2010年4月至2020年3月的关联行政数据库。纳入诊断为aHCC的患者,并分析他们的临床和人口统计学特征,以及治疗模式、生存率、医疗卫生资源利用和经济负担。在7322名确诊患者中,802名aHCC患者符合纳入研究的资格标准。治疗亚组包括一线全身治疗(53.2%)、其他全身治疗(4.5%)、局部区域治疗(LRT,9.0%)和未治疗(33.3%)。中位年龄为66岁,大多数为男性(82%)。整个队列从诊断开始的中位总生存期(mOS)为6.5个月。然而,接受一线全身治疗的患者的mOS为9.0个月,显著高于其他三个亚组。每位接受aHCC治疗的患者的平均成本为49,640加元,口服药物和住院治疗是最大的成本驱动因素。结果强调了在治疗选择不断演变的时代持续评估和优化HCC管理策略的必要性。
