Sorafenib in Advanced Hepatocellular Carcinoma
Open accessAbstract
BACKGROUND: No effective systemic therapy exists for patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma. A preliminary study suggested that sorafenib, an oral multikinase inhibitor of the vascular endothelial growth factor receptor, the platelet-derived growth factor receptor, and Raf may be effective in hepatocellular carcinoma. METHODS: In this multicenter, phase 3, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial, we randomly assigned 602 patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma who had not received previous systemic treatment to receive either sorafenib (at a dose of 400 mg twice daily) or placebo. Primary outcomes were overall survival and the time to symptomatic progression. Secondary outcomes included the time to radiologic progression and safety. RESULTS: At the second planned interim analysis, 321 deaths had occurred, and the study was stopped. Median overall survival was 10.7 months in the sorafenib group and 7.9 months in the placebo group (hazard ratio in the sorafenib group, 0.69; 95% confidence interval, 0.55 to 0.87; P<0.001). There was no significant difference between the two groups in the median time to symptomatic progression (4.1 months vs. 4.9 months, respectively, P=0.77). The median time to radiologic progression was 5.5 months in the sorafenib group and 2.8 months in the placebo group (P<0.001). Seven patients in the sorafenib group (2%) and two patients in the placebo group (1%) had a partial response; no patients had a complete response. Diarrhea, weight loss, hand-foot skin reaction, and hypophosphatemia were more frequent in the sorafenib group. CONCLUSIONS: In patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma, median survival and the time to radiologic progression were nearly 3 months longer for patients treated with sorafenib than for those given placebo.

“In previously untreated patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma, the approved multikinase inhibitors lenvatinib and sorafenib have provided modest median overall survival benefits of 13•6 months (lenvatinib) and 12•3 months (sorafenib).5,6”

“Multikinase inhibitors, including sorafenib and lenvatinib, are first-line treatment options for patients with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma; however, they provide modest improvements in median overall survival (ranging from 12 months to 14 months), along with unsatisfactory safety outcomes.”

“Of note, sorafenib performed exceptionally well in patients with non-viral HCCs, with a median OS reaching 18.1 months, considerably longer than that in the SHARP trial (10.7 months) or other sorafenib arms in recent phase three trials (13–15 months), which possibly cause the lack of comparative benefits for atezolizumab-bevacizumab in this subgroup despite preserved absolute benefits [27, 32, 33]”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
