Abstract

Objective: The objectives of our study were firstly to characterize the treatment stage migration phenomenon in early (Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer [BCLC]-0/A) stage hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) by comparing the efficacy of curative therapies with trans-arterial chemoembolization [TACE] and secondly, determining baseline and on-treatment predictors of survival.

Methods: All patients within BCLC-0/A stage from six tertiary hospitals who received curative therapy with either resection, transplantation, or ablation or TACE as first-line treatment were included in the analyses. The primary endpoint was overall survival; secondary end-points were transplant-free survival and recurrence-free survival.

Results: Between January 2000 and December 2013, we identified 253 BCLC-0/A HCC patients of whom 148 (58.5%) received curative therapy and 105 (41.5%) migrated to TACE. Patients undergoing TACE had lower median survival (2.7 vs. 6.7 years; p < .0001), transplant-free survival (2.6 vs. 4.8 years; p < .0001) and recurrence-free survival (1.3 vs. 2.7 years; p < .001). On multivariate analysis treatment allocation to TACE was an independent prognostic predictor for both lower overall survival (HR 1.70, p = .04) and for HCC recurrence (HR 2.25, p < .001). The main prognostic determinant for each target outcome was Child-Pugh score.

Conclusions: Our study confirms that curative treatments should always be preferred when applicable in early-stage HCC, but that in cases where this is not possible, TACE is a reasonable albeit inferior treatment option. In addition, it provides unique prognostic information on a significant proportion of patients with early-stage disease in whom curative therapy is not applicable.

抽象

目的：本研究的目的首先是通过比较治愈性疗法与经动脉化疗栓塞的疗效来描述早期（巴塞罗那临床肝癌[BCLC] -0 / A）期肝细胞癌（HCC）的治疗阶段迁移现象[ TACE]，其次，确定生存的基线和治疗预测因子。

方法：所有6例三级医院的BCLC-0 / A期患者均接受了切除，移植或消融治疗或TACE作为一线治疗的疗效。主要终点是总生存期;次要终点是无移植存活和无复发存活。

结果：2000年1月至2013年12月，我们确定了253名BCLC-0 / A HCC患者，其中148名（58.5％）接受了治疗，105名（41.5％）移植到TACE。接受TACE治疗的患者中位生存期较低（2.7对6.7岁; p <.0001），无移植存活率（2.6对4.8岁; p <.0001）和无复发生存期（1.3对2.7年; p < .001）。在多变量分析中，TACE治疗分配是较低总生存率（HR 1.70，p = .04）和HCC复发（HR 2.25，p <.001）的独立预后预测因子。每个目标结果的主要预后决定因素是Child-Pugh评分。

结论：我们的研究证实，治疗性治疗在适用于早期HCC时应始终是首选治疗方法，但在无法治愈的情况下，TACE是一种合理的治疗方案。此外，它为很大比例的早期疾病患者提供了独特的预后信息，其中治愈性治疗不适用。
