简要总结
Patients with HCC with portal vein involvement not involving the bifurcation (vP1-vP3) and no evidence of extra-hepatic spread will be enrolled. Patients will be required to have Child's A liver function and no significant portal hypertension. Patients will be randomly assigned with a 1:1 ratio to either surgery followed by adjuvant sorafenib or sorafenib alone. Patients will be followed by serial imaging. The primary end-point is overall survival.
详细描述
Trial design
Surgery + sorafenib vs. sorafenib 100 patients per arm Centralized randomization by CRO Need to call CRO for treatment allocation Primary end-point - OS Secondary end-point Progression free survival (PFS) Randomized 1:1 Stratification Vp1-2 vs. Vp3 AFP ≤400 vs AFP >400 Intention to treat Surgery aborted or R1-2 resection will remain in surgical arm No cross over CT scan chest/abdomen 4 weeks after surgery as post-operative baseline Will not alter treatment allocation Will allow for PFS measurement in surgical arm CT scan chest/abdomen pelvis Q 12 weeks after initiation sorafenib Patients progressing on sorafenib allowed 2nd line treatment Regorafenib or lenvatinib - if approved in China Dose reduction sorafenib as per protocol
