Purpose: In the phase III HIMALAYA study (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT03298451) in unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (uHCC), the Single Tremelimumab Regular Interval Durvalumab (STRIDE) regimen significantly improved overall survival versus sorafenib, and durvalumab monotherapy was noninferior to sorafenib. Patient-reported outcomes (PROs), a secondary outcome from HIMALAYA, are reported here.

Results reported herein are from a 4-year updated OS analysis of HIMALAYA.
Patients And Methods: Participants with uHCC and no previous systemic treatment were randomized to STRIDE (n = 393), durvalumab (n = 389), or sorafenib (n = 389).
Colorectal cancer exerts a very high level of liver metastases, even on primary diagnosis, with 80%-90% unresectable nodules. At the same time, the possibility of resection has a significant impact on survival: 5-year survival is 6%-10% without liver surgery and up to 30% upon resection of liver metastases. Finding ways to improve resectability is a topical search for doctors all over the world.
