Project description:Portal vein tumor thrombosis is a strong poor indication of HCC. Characterizing the molecular alterations of these metastatic HCCs is important for understanding the molecular mechanisms during HCC progression and metastasis. Previous genomic studies mainly focus on single molecular layer, such as gene expressions or exonic mutations. In this study, we systematically examined the copy number variation (CNV), DNA methylation, miRNA and transcriptome of matched adjacent normal tissues, primary tumors and PVTTs from 19 HCC patients. Based on the integrative multi-omics profiles, we established the molecular landscape of the metastatic HCCs and identified a set of the recurrent genomic alterations and candidate driver genes.

Project description:Hepatocellular carcinoma is the fourth leading cause of cancer worldwide, and the fastest increasing cause of cancer mortality in the United States. Its propensity for vascular invasion leads to the presence of portal vein tumor thrombus in up to half of patients. PVTT results in a classification of advanced disease, given the risk recurrence secondary to intravascular spread, and formal guidelines recommend systemic therapy in these patients. However, recent advances in locoregional therapies including TACE, TARE, and ablation have demonstrated the potential to drastically improve overall survival in patients with HCC complicated by PVTT.

Project description:BackgroundHepatic portal vein collateral circulation plays an important role in maintaining the perfusion of hepatic portal vein. However, at present, there is little research on collateral circulation of hepatic portal vein. Our study aims to analysis the imaging types and clinical value of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) with portal vein tumor thrombus (PVTT) invading and completely blocking different branches of portal vein, secondary to hepatic portal vein collateral circulation.MethodsThis study retrospectively analyzed Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) with PVTT diagnosed with enhanced CT examination of the upper abdomen in our hospital from May 2020 to October 2021.The inclusion criteria for patients were the following: (I) ultimately diagnosed with HCC, (II) accompanied by complete obstruction of the main portal vein or left/right branches, and (III) with collateral circulation of the hepatic portal vein established. All images were postprocessed by multiplanar reconstruction (MPR), maximum intensity projection (MIP), and other reconstruction techniques to obtain images of the abnormal portal vein system and the collateral vessels running toward the hepatic portal veins. Three physicians jointly judged the imaging anatomical classification of each collateral vessel. The qualitative variables were compared by chi-squared test.ResultsA total of 125 hepatic portal vein collateral vessels were observed in MPR and MIP reconstruction images of 71 patients with portal vein cancer thrombosis with established hepatic portal vein collateral circulation. Common hepatic collateral branches in patients with PVTT mainly include the biliary collateral branch, gastric collateral branch, mesenteric collateral branch, accessory portal vein system and the splenic branch. The incidence rate was respectively 77.5%, 36.6%, 32.4%, 28.2%, 1.41%.ConclusionsThe correct understanding of the imaging anatomical classification of the collateral vessels of the hepatic portal vein can provide clinicians with more information for diagnosis and treatment planning.

Project description:This is a retrospective study on the safety and efficacy of gamma knife radiosurgery (GKR) in treating hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) with portal vein tumor thrombosis (PVTT). Patients with confirmed HCC and PVTT were allocated into two groups based on the treatments they received (palliative or GKR). A total of 138 patients were included (74 in the palliative group, 64 in GKR group). No significant differences in baseline characteristics existed between the two groups. Treatment-related adverse events (AEs) were recorded and compared between groups. The majority of AEs were mild to moderate and subsided naturally or after medication. There was no AE-induced death. The influences of baseline characteristics and treatment options on patients' OS were analyzed. The median OS of patients in the palliative and GKR group were 3.0 months (95% CI: 2.719-3.281) and 6.1 months (95% CI: 4.706-7.494) respectively (p = 0.003). Multivariate analysis revealed that GKR treatment, performance status 0-1, Child A, smaller tumor diameter and monolobar distribution were significant favorable prognosticators. Subgroup analyses showed OS benefit of GKR regardless of PVTT location (main or branch of PVTT). In conclusion, GKR is well tolerated in selected HCC-PVTT patients and can confer OS benefit, which needs validation in future prospective studies.

Project description:Background/aimAtezolizumab plus bevacizumab and lenvatinib are currently available as first-line therapy for the treatment of unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). However, comparative efficacy studies are still limited. This study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of these treatments in HCC patients with portal vein tumor thrombosis (PVTT).MethodsWe retrospectively included patients who received either atezolizumab plus bevacizumab or lenvatinib as first-line systemic therapy for HCC with PVTT. Primary endpoint was overall survival (OS), and secondary endpoints included progressionfree survival (PFS) and disease control rate (DCR) determined by response evaluation criteria in solid tumors, version 1.1.ResultsA total of 52 patients were included: 30 received atezolizumab plus bevacizumab and 22 received lenvatinib. The median follow-up duration was 6.4 months (interquartile range, 3.9-9.8). The median OS was 10.8 months (95% confidence interval [CI], 5.7 to not estimated) with atezolizumab plus bevacizumab and 5.8 months (95% CI, 4.8 to not estimated) with lenvatinib (P=0.26 by log-rank test). There was no statistically significant difference in OS (adjusted hazard ratio [aHR], 0.71; 95% CI, 0.34-1.49; P=0.37). The median PFS was similar (P=0.63 by log-rank test), with 4.1 months (95% CI, 3.3-7.7) for atezolizumab plus bevacizumab and 4.3 months (95% CI, 2.6-5.8) for lenvatinib (aHR, 0.93; 95% CI, 0.51-1.69; P=0.80). HRs were similar after inverse probability treatment weighting. The DCRs were 23.3% and 18.2% in patients receiving atezolizumab plus bevacizumab and lenvatinib, respectively (P=0.74).ConclusionThe effectiveness of atezolizumab plus bevacizumab and lenvatinib was comparable for the treatment of HCC with PVTT.

Project description:Background/aims: This study aimed to assess whether hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients with portal vein tumor thrombosis (PVTT) could have favorable prognoses with proper treatment under selective conditions.Methods: This retrospective, single-center study involved 1,168 patients diagnosed with HCC between January 2005 and December 2006, before the introduction of sorafenib. Overall survival (OS) was estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method, and the Cox proportional hazards model was used to identify and adjust the variables associated with OS.Results: In nodular-type HCC, the OS differed significantly according to the presence of PVTT (log-rank p<0.001), and the level of PVTT, not only its presence, was a major independent factor affecting OS. PVTT at the Vp1-3 branch was associated with significantly longer OS than was PVTT at the Vp4 level (hazard ratio [HR], 1.82; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.04 to 3.21). In multivariate analysis, the OS was further stratified according to the PVTT level and tumor type, representing that nodular HCC without PVTT exhibited the best OS, whereas nodular HCC with Vp4 PVTT (adjusted HR, 2.59; 95% CI, 1.57 to 4.28) showed a poor prognosis similar to that of infiltrative HCC. The PVTT level was consistently correlated with OS in patients treated with transarterial chemoembolization. Nodular HCC without PVTT showed the best prognosis, while nodular HCC with Vp1-3 PVTT also exhibited a favorable OS, although inferior to that without PVTT (adjusted HR, 1.47, 95% CI, 0.92 to 2.36).Conclusions: Active treatment such as transarterial chemoembolization can be considered for selected PVTT cases. The level of PVTT and type of HCC were independent prognostic factors.
