In this editorial, we review the article "Efficacy and predictive factors of transarterial chemoembolization combined with lenvatinib plus programmed cell death protein-1 inhibition for unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma". We specifically focused on whether transarterial chemoembolization combined with lenvatinib in combination with a programmed death 1 inhibitor could be used in patients with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma. Since both transarterial chemoembolization as well as lenvatinib in combination with programmed death 1 inhibitors play an important role in the treatment of advanced liver cancer, but the combination of all three therapeutic approaches needs more research.
在这篇社论中,我们回顾了《经动脉化疗栓塞联合乐伐替尼加程序性细胞死亡蛋白1抑制治疗不可切除肝细胞癌的疗效及预测因素》这篇文章。我们特别关注经动脉化疗栓塞联合乐伐替尼与程序性死亡1抑制剂联合使用是否可用于不可切除肝细胞癌患者。由于经动脉化疗栓塞以及乐伐替尼与程序性死亡1抑制剂联合使用在晚期肝癌治疗中都发挥着重要作用,但这三种治疗方法的联合应用还需要更多研究。
