2、-TACE) is effective in patients with Barcelona clinic liver cancer stage B hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).

3、ety of DEB-TACE plus sorafenib in patients with intermediate stage HCC.Why choose DEB-TACE？ TACE procedures can vary substantially, with regards to both the chemotherapeutic agent and embolization method, making these procedures quite heterogeneous. No consensus has been reached concerning the numbe
4、r of TACE administrations or the time between administrations. DEB-TACE reduce peak concentrations and total systemic exposure to doxorubicin, and ensure high concentrations in the tumor and adequate arterial occlusion. These beads show sustained, continuous release of doxorubicin for 14 days, with
5、a significantly lower systemic plasma concentration of doxorubicin compared with intraarterial injection. DEB-TACE reduced the rates of systemic adverse events (AE) and liver toxicity compared with conventional TACE with Lipiodol and doxorubicin.Patients were included if: Age 18 years, with a life e

13、eading cause in the sorafenib arm was deterioration of Child-Pugh status (68/110 or 61.8% of patients).

The combination did not provide meaningful clinical benefit compared with DEB-TACE alone. The regional di

Int J Cancer 121:416-424, 2007 The dose modification and treatment discontinuation More than one-third of patients in the sorafenib group received only one round of TACE, with the major reasons for TACE discontinuations in the sorafenib arm being worsening of liver functio

Such strict criteria did not take into account transient changes in liver function or platelet count and indeed at least 30% deemed ineligible for additional TACE per protocol did receive further TACE outside the study. The conservative TACE continuati
23、on rules in the SPACE trial may have contributed to the low response rate and shorter TTUP. The high biological heterogeneity across HCC Certain clinical or biological subsets of patients might be more likely to respond to sorafenib, and an unselected adjuvant population could obscure a signal of ef
24、ficacy within a subset. However, without established predictive biomarkers of sorafenib response in advanced disease, a biomarker-enriched adjuvant population cannot be defined. The timing of antiangiogenic therapy with sorafenib The first is a sequential model where the TACE is completed and then f

A second model is that of an interrupted approach where antiangiogenic therapy is given throughout and is only temporarily interrupted around the time of the embolization. A third model is that of continuous administration of antiangiogrenic therapy throughout

The third continuous administration approach, as yet untested clinically, aims at inhibiting the surge of VEGF after embolization that rises to approximately 160% of the baseline level on day 1, and falls back to 130% and 120% on days 2 and 3, respectively. The op

The SPACE study has time to tumor progression as the primary end point and defines failure of therapy as an inability to achieve objective response after more than two TACE procedures in the treated tumor nodule.In conclusion There remains no established role for sorafenib as adj

We should reassess the optimum starting dose of sorafenib to avoid these liabilities of delay and discontinuation for future trials and patients, across disease stages.THANK YOU!Sun Yat-sen University Cancer Center
