Abstract
Camrelizumab, donafenib, and transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) are recommended for advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), but their combined efficacy remains unclear. From July 2021 to January 2023, 20 Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer stage C HCC patients were prospectively enrolled. Inclusion criteria were Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status of 0 or 1, Child-Pugh Score ≤ 7, and Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer B or C. Surgical candidates were excluded. The treatment included TACE, camrelizumab, and donafenib. Endpoints were median overall survival, progression-free survival, and adverse events (AEs) related to donafenib. Among 20 patients, 85% experienced AEs from targeted therapy and programmed cell death protein-1, with 40% having grade 3 AEs. No grade 4 or 5 AEs occurred. Median follow-up was 9 months, with 15% achieving complete response, 65% partial response, and 15% stable disease. Disease control rate was 90%. Median progression-free survival and overall survival were 9 and 14 months, respectively. TACE, camrelizumab, and donafenib combination therapy in Chinese advanced HCC patients show effectiveness in extending survival with low severe AEs incidence.
