Summary

  • This summary is based on the review of six systematic review(s)/meta-analysis(es). [1-6]
  • Tremelimumab plus durvalumab (Tre + Du) had a comparable overall survival (OS) benefit to atezolizumab plus bevacizumab (Atezo + Beva) (HR: 1.35, 95% Confidence Interval (CI): 0.93-1.92), but Atezo + Beva was superior in progression-free survival (PFS) (HR: 0.66, 95% CI: 0.49-0.87).
  • Camrelizumab plus rivoceranib (Camre + Rivo) ranked highest for OS, while lenvatinib plus pembrolizumab (Lenva + Pemb) showed the highest probability of being the best treatment in PFS.
  • ICI-based therapies demonstrated increased effectiveness in the Asia-Pacific group and among HBV-infected patients, but combined ICI therapies did not show more effectiveness than molecular-targeted drugs in patients without macrovascular invasion or extrahepatic spread.
  • Durvalumab Plus Tremelimumab (DT): Any adverse events (AEs) occurred in 77.8% (95% CI: 67.9-87.6) of patients, Grade ≥ 3 AEs in 29.3% (95% CI: 24.2-34.4), serious AEs in 34.9% (95% CI: 28.1-41.7), and AEs leading to discontinuation in 13.3% (95% CI: 9.3-17.4). Treatment-related deaths were 0.98% (95% CI: 0.5-1.5). Common AEs (>15%): fatigue (30.1%), diarrhea (21.7%), pruritus (17.9%), decreased appetite (17.7%), and nausea (15.6%).
  • Atezolizumab Plus Bevacizumab: Associated with a higher risk of Grade 3 AEs compared to other drugs but provided superior or comparable effectiveness.
  • ICI-based treatments demonstrated increased effectiveness in the Asia-Pacific group and among HBV-infected individuals, while comparable benefit was observed for tremelimumab-durvalumab in subgroups like hepatitis B, nonviral HCC, and AFP ≥ 400 μg/L. Anti-PD-(L)1/VEGF (vascular endothelial growth factor) Ab ranked highest across most subgroups, except in hepatitis B, where atezolizumab-cabozantinib showed superior outcomes for both OS and PFS.
