INTRODUCTION: A previous phase 3 FOHAIC-1 study demonstrated that hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy (HAIC) of FOLFOX regimen displayed favorable outcomes in advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients, including those with high-risk features (main portal tumor invasion and >50% liver infiltration). This study aimed to compare the treatment efficacy of HAIC-FOLFOX versus atezolizumab-bevacizumab in HCC patients. METHODS: Individual patient data from the Chinese FOHAIC-1 study and aggregate data from the global IMbrave150 study were used to conduct an anchored matching-adjusted indirect comparison. Hazard ratios (HR) and restricted mean survival times (RMST) were calculated to assess survival differences. Landmark analysis was performed to evaluate time-sensitive treatment effects, and simulated treatment comparison (STC) was conducted as a sensitivity analysis. Rates of treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) and TRAE-related discontinuations were also compared. RESULTS: After matching baseline characteristics, HAIC showed a numerical OS benefit (HR 0.57, 95% CI, 0.30-1.08) and similar PFS benefit (HR 0.79, 95% CI, 0.43-1.47) compared to atezolizumab-bevacizumab in the overall population. In high-risk patients, HAIC demonstrated significantly improved OS (HR 0.30, 95% CI, 0.12-0.72) and 2.89-month longer RMST compared to atezolizumab-bevacizumab (95% CI, 0.15-5.64 months). Additionally, HAIC showed superior PFS (HR 0.25, 95% CI, 0.10-0.64) and 2.88-month longer RMST over atezolizumab-bevacizumab (95% CI, 0.90-4.86). Landmark analysis in the high-risk group revealed that HAIC was associated with significant improvements in both OS (HR 0.32, 95% CI, 0.13-0.79) and PFS (HR 0.24, 95% CI, 0.09-0.63) during the 0-12 months following treatment initiation. Sensitivity analysis using the anchored STC analysis yielded consistent results. HAIC was associated with lower rates of grade 3-4 TRAEs and TRAE-related discontinuation in both the overall population and the high-risk group. CONCLUSION: HAIC treatment provided superior survival benefits and a favorable safety profile compared to atezolizumab-bevacizumab in high-risk HCC patients.
引言:先前的一项3期FOHAIC - 1研究表明,FOLFOX方案的肝动脉灌注化疗(HAIC)在晚期肝细胞癌(HCC)患者中显示出良好的疗效,包括那些具有高危特征(主要门静脉肿瘤侵犯和>50%肝脏浸润)的患者。本研究旨在比较HAIC - FOLFOX与阿替利珠单抗 - 贝伐单抗在HCC患者中的治疗效果。 方法:使用来自中国FOHAIC - 1研究的个体患者数据和来自全球IMbrave150研究的汇总数据进行锚定匹配调整间接比较。计算风险比(HR)和受限平均生存时间(RMST)以评估生存差异。进行里程碑分析以评估时间敏感的治疗效果,并进行模拟治疗比较(STC)作为敏感性分析。还比较了治疗相关不良事件(TRAEs)的发生率和与TRAEs相关的停药率。 结果:在匹配基线特征后,与阿替利珠单抗 - 贝伐单抗相比,HAIC在总体人群中显示出数值上的总生存期(OS)获益(HR 0.57,95%CI,0.30 - 1.08)和相似的无进展生存期(PFS)获益(HR 0.79,95%CI,0.43 - 1.47)。在高危患者中,与阿替利珠单抗 - 贝伐单抗相比,HAIC显示出显著改善的OS(HR 0.30,95%CI,0.12 - 0.72)和RMST延长2.89个月(95%CI,0.15 - 5.64个月)。此外,与阿替利珠单抗 - 贝伐单抗相比,HAIC显示出更优的PFS(HR 0.25,95%CI,0.10 - 0.64)和RMST延长2.88个月(95%CI,0.90 - 4.86)。高危组的里程碑分析显示,HAIC在治疗开始后的0 - 12个月内与OS(HR 0.32,95%CI,0.13 - 0.79)和PFS(HR 0.24,95%CI,0.09 - 0.63)的显著改善相关。使用锚定STC分析的敏感性分析产生了一致的结果。在总体人群和高危组中,HAIC与3 - 4级TRAEs和与TRAEs相关的停药率较低相关。 结论:在高危HCC患者中,与阿替利珠单抗 - 贝伐单抗相比,HAIC治疗提供了更优的生存获益和良好的安全性。
