Liver Decompensation as Late Complication in HCC Patients with Long-Term Response following Selective Internal Radiation Therapy.

ABSTRACT: Selective internal radiation therapy (SIRT) is used as a treatment for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The aim of this study was to assess long-term liver-related complications of SIRT in patients who had not developed radioembolization-induced liver disease (REILD). The primary outcome was the percentage of patients without REILD that developed Child-Pugh (CP) ≥ B7 liver decompensation after SIRT. The secondary outcomes were overall survival (OS) and tumor response. These data were compared with a matched cohort of patients treated with sorafenib. Eighty-five patients were included, of whom 16 developed REILD. Of the remaining 69 patients, 38 developed liver decompensation CP ≥ B7. The median OS was 18 months. In patients without REILD, the median OS in patients with CP ≥ B7 was significantly shorter compared to those without CP ≥ B7; 16 vs. 31 months. In the case-matched analysis, the median OS was significantly longer in SIRT-treated patients; 16 vs. 8 months in sorafenib. Liver decompensation CP ≥ B7 occurred significantly more in SIRT when compared to sorafenib; 62% vs. 27%. The ALBI score was an independent predictor of liver decompensation (OR 0.07) and OS (HR 2.83). After SIRT, liver decompensation CP ≥ B7 often developed as a late complication in HCC patients and was associated with a shorter OS. The ALBI score was predictive of CP ≥ B7 liver decompensation and the OS, and this may be a valuable marker for patient selection for SIRT.

Project description:IntroductionThe aim of this study is to conduct a meta-analysis to assess the efficacy of yttrium-90 selective internal radiation therapy (SIRT) in treating patients with breast cancer with hepatic metastasis.MethodPubMed and The Cochrane Library were queried from establishment to January 2021. The following keywords were implemented: "breast", "yttrium", and "radioembolization". The following variables and outcomes were collected: publication year, region, sample size, study design, presence of extrahepatic disease, tumor burden, infused radioactivity, breast cancer subtype, previous treatment, median survival time (MST), length of follow-up, adverse events, and radiographical response such as Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST), modified RECIST (mRECIST), and Positron Emission Tomography Response Criteria in Solid Tumors (PERCIST).ResultsA total of 24 studies from 14 institutions were included in the present meta-analysis. On the basis of the data from 412 patients, post-embolization MST was 9.8 [95% confidence interval (CI): 9.0-11.6] months. Patients with additional extrahepatic metastasis had a poorer survival rate compared with those with localized hepatic metastasis only (MST: 5.3 vs. 15 months, p < 0.0001). Patients with <25% liver tumor burden exhibited more promising survival than those with >25% (MST: 10.5 vs. 6.8 months, p < 0.0139). On the basis of RECIST, mRECIST, and PERCIST criteria, tumor response rate was 36% (95% CI: 26%-47%), 49% (95% CI: 34%-65%), and 47% (95% CI: 17%-78%), respectively, whereas tumor control rate was 85% (95% CI: 76%-93%), 73% (95% CI: 59%-85%), and 97% (95% CI: 91%-100%), respectively.ConclusionOn the basis of the available published evidence, SIRT is feasible and effective in treating patients with breast cancer with liver metastasis. Patients with lower hepatic tumor burden and without extrahepatic metastasis demonstrated more survival benefit. Future randomized controlled trials are warranted.

Project description:BackgroundTo confirm the prognostic value of previously published baseline interleukin 6 (IL6) and IL8 cutoff values in survival and liver dysfunction in patients with advanced HCC undergoing 90Y radioembolization.MethodsA total of 83 patients (77 male) represented a subset of HCC patients undergoing 90Y radioembolization combined with sorafenib as part of the prospective multicenter phase II trial SORAMIC. IL6 and IL8 levels were determined in serum samples collected at baseline. In this post hoc analysis, we sought to confirm the prognostic value of baseline cutoff values of 6.53 pg/mL and 60.8 pg/mL for IL6 and IL8, respectively, in overall survival (OS) or liver dysfunction (grade 2 bilirubin increase) after treatment.ResultsMedian OS was 12.0 months. While low baseline albumin and high bilirubin values were associated with high IL6, liver cirrhosis, alcoholic liver disease, and portal vein infiltration were associated with high IL8. In univariate analysis, high baseline IL6 and IL8 were associated with significantly shorter overall survival (7.8 vs. 19.0 months for IL6 and 8.4 vs. 16.0 months for IL8). In addition to IL values, liver cirrhosis, Child-Pugh grade, baseline albumin (< 36 g/dL), and total bilirubin (≥ 17 µmol/L), and higher mALBI grade (2b &3) values were associated with OS. At multivariate analysis, high baseline IL6 was the only independent prognostic factor for OS (HR 2.35 [1.35-4.1], p = 0.002). Risk factors for liver dysfunction were high baseline IL6, albumin, and total bilirubin, and mALBI grade as found in univariate analysis. High baseline IL6 (HR 2.67 [1.21-5.94], p = 0.016) and total bilirubin ≥ 17 µmol/L (HR 3.73 [1.72-8.06], p < 0.001) were independently associated with liver dysfunction.ConclusionIn advanced HCC patients receiving 90Y radioembolization combined with sorafenib, baseline IL6 values proved to be prognostic, confirming previous findings in patients undergoing 90Yradioembolization. IL6 might be useful for patient selection or stratification in future trials.

Project description:PurposeA multidisciplinary expert panel convened to formulate state-of-the-art recommendations for optimisation of selective internal radiation therapy (SIRT) with yttrium-90 (90Y)-resin microspheres.MethodsA steering committee of 23 international experts representing all participating specialties formulated recommendations for SIRT with 90Y-resin microspheres activity prescription and post-treatment dosimetry, based on literature searches and the responses to a 61-question survey that was completed by 43 leading experts (including the steering committee members). The survey was validated by the steering committee and completed anonymously. In a face-to-face meeting, the results of the survey were presented and discussed. Recommendations were derived and level of agreement defined (strong agreement ≥ 80%, moderate agreement 50%-79%, no agreement ≤ 49%).ResultsForty-seven recommendations were established, including guidance such as a multidisciplinary team should define treatment strategy and therapeutic intent (strong agreement); 3D imaging with CT and an angiography with cone-beam-CT, if available, and 99mTc-MAA SPECT/CT are recommended for extrahepatic/intrahepatic deposition assessment, treatment field definition and calculation of the 90Y-resin microspheres activity needed (moderate/strong agreement). A personalised approach, using dosimetry (partition model and/or voxel-based) is recommended for activity prescription, when either whole liver or selective, non-ablative or ablative SIRT is planned (strong agreement). A mean absorbed dose to non-tumoural liver of 40 Gy or less is considered safe (strong agreement). A minimum mean target-absorbed dose to tumour of 100-120 Gy is recommended for hepatocellular carcinoma, liver metastatic colorectal cancer and cholangiocarcinoma (moderate/strong agreement). Post-SIRT imaging for treatment verification with 90Y-PET/CT is recommended (strong agreement). Post-SIRT dosimetry is also recommended (strong agreement).ConclusionPractitioners are encouraged to work towards adoption of these recommendations.
