Predictive Biomarkers for Immune-Checkpoint Inhibitor Treatment Response in Patients with Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Jun Ho Ji et al.

Summary: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) has a high mortality rate and lacks efficacious treatment options. Immunotherapy, including immune checkpoint inhibitors, has shown promising results in the treatment of HCC. However, the development of biomarkers to predict treatment response and toxicity is urgently needed.

Predictive biomarkers for systemic therapy of hepatocellular carcinoma

Nurbubu T. Moldogazieva et al.

Summary: This review discusses recent advancements in identifying proteomic/genomic/epigenomic/transcriptomic biomarkers for predicting HCC treatment efficacy with the use of multi-kinase inhibitors (MKIs), CDK4/6 inhibitors, and immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs). Various biomarkers such as alpha-fetoprotein, des-carboxyprothrombin, and vascular endothelial growth factor have the potential to predict the efficacy of sorafenib treatment.

Global cancer statistics 2020: GLOBOCAN estimates of incidence and mortality worldwide for 36 cancers in 185 countries

Hyuna Sung et al.

Summary: The global cancer burden in 2020 saw an estimated 19.3 million new cancer cases and almost 10.0 million cancer deaths. Female breast cancer surpassed lung cancer as the most commonly diagnosed cancer, while lung cancer remained the leading cause of cancer death. These trends are expected to rise in 2040, with transitioning countries experiencing a larger increase compared to transitioned countries due to demographic changes and risk factors associated with globalization and a growing economy. Efforts to improve cancer prevention measures and provision of cancer care in transitioning countries will be crucial for global cancer control.

Advanced hepatocellular carcinoma with response to lenvatinib after atezolizumab plus bevacizumab

Shigeki Yano et al.

Summary: This case demonstrates that multidisciplinary treatment such as LEN and conversion surgery is feasible even if atezolizumab plus bevacizumab is not effective. For patients with unresectable HCC, there is a possibility of cure even when first-line treatment fails, as shown by the efficacy of LEN following atezolizumab plus bevacizumab.

Anti-angiogenic agents - overcoming tumour endothelial cell anergy and improving immunotherapy outcomes

Zowi R. Huinen et al.

Summary: Anti-angiogenic therapy has the potential to enhance antitumor immunity by inhibiting immunosuppressive features of angiogenesis. Combinations of anti-angiogenic agents and immunotherapy have shown success in clinical trials and have been approved by the FDA. The article discusses the impact of angiogenesis on antitumor immunity, the role of endothelial cells, and the progress in combining anti-angiogenic agents with immune checkpoint inhibitors.

Baseline Liver Function and Subsequent Outcomes in the Phase 3 REFLECT Study of Patients with Unresectable Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Arndt Vogel et al.

Summary: Better baseline liver function, as measured by ALBI grade or CPS, may be associated with better survival outcomes in patients with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (uHCC) undergoing treatment with lenvatinib or sorafenib.

Early Tumor Response and Safety of Atezolizumab Plus Bevacizumab for Patients with Unresectable Hepatocellular Carcinoma in Real-World Practice

Yuwa Ando et al.

Summary: The study aimed to investigate the early tumor response and safety of atezolizumab plus bevacizumab in unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma patients. The results showed that AFP may be useful in assessing early response, and the treatment was safe, including in patients with prior MTA treatments, although adverse events were more frequent in patients with prior treatment.

Improving antitumor immunity using antiangiogenic agents: Mechanistic insights, current progress, and clinical challenges

Shu-Jin Li et al.

Summary: Cancer immunotherapy has had significant success in recent years, but still faces challenges such as limited patient response. Combining immunotherapy with other therapies or antiangiogenic agents may help overcome resistance to monotherapy. Understanding the interactions between antiangiogenic agents and immunotherapy is crucial for improving treatment outcomes in solid tumors.
