Article Synopsis
  • Durvalumab plus tremelimumab (Durva/Treme) is a newly approved treatment for unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (u-HCC) in Japan, and researchers assessed its real-world outcomes.
  • A study evaluated 22 patients at Iwate Medical University who received Durva/Treme, comparing outcomes between those treated as first-line vs. later-line therapy.
  • Results showed no significant differences in progression-free survival, objective response rate, disease control rate, or adverse event incidence between the two groups, suggesting Durva/Treme is effective and safe for u-HCC patients regardless of treatment line.

Despite progress in our understanding of the biology of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), this tumour remains difficult-to-cure for several reasons, starting from the particular disease environment where it arises-advanced chronic liver disease-to its heterogeneous clinical and biological behaviour. The advent, and good results, of immunotherapy for cancer called for the evaluation of its potential application also in HCC, where there is evidence of intra-hepatic immune response activation. Several studies advanced our knowledge of immune checkpoints expression in HCC, thus suggesting that immune checkpoint blockade may have a strong rationale even in the treatment of HCC.
