Abstract
Lenvatinib is a multikinase inhibitor which mainly hinders liver cancer proliferation by inhibiting angiogenesis. In 2018, Lenvatinib was approved for the first-line treatment of patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma [HCC] in the United States, the European Union, Japan, and China. Lenvatinib has been established as a sorafenib replacement drug with a higher objective response rate [ORR], longer progression-free survival [PFS], and time to progression [TTP]. Lenvatinib resistance during hepatocellular carcinoma treatment has become increasingly common in recent years. Accordingly, it is necessary to determine factors associated with Lenvatinib resistance and explore solutions. In this review, we sought to explore the drug resistance mechanisms of Lenvatinib in liver cancer and methods to reduce drug resistance and summarized the recent achievements of Lenvatinib in liver cancer treatment.
