Characteristics of patients with longer treatment period of lenvatinib for unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma: A post-hoc analysis of post-marketing surveillance study in Japan.

Patient profiles suitable for long-term lenvatinib treatment for unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (uHCC) are yet to be fully understood. This post-hoc analysis aimed to identify such patient characteristics and explore the impact of treatment duration and relative dose intensity (RDI) on treatment outcomes. The data were obtained from 703 patients in a multicenter, prospective cohort study in Japan.

Safety and Effectiveness of Lenvatinib in Patients with Unresectable Hepatocellular Carcinoma in Real-World Clinical Practice: An Observational Post-Marketing Study in Japan.

Background: Lenvatinib was approved for use in unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (uHCC) in Japan in 2018. Patients with diverse clinical characteristics receive lenvatinib treatment in clinical practice. Thus, it is crucial to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of lenvatinib in real-world clinical settings.
