Clinical Pearls in Intermediate Stage uHCC Management
Author(s)Amit Singal, MD
The panelist discusses, for intermediate-stage unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (uHCC), key clinical pearls include prioritizing transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) as a first-line therapy, with systemic options for TACE-ineligible patients or progression; consider lenvatinib or atezolizumab plus bevacizumab based on liver function and risk factors. Evaluate treatment success via a radiologic response (mRECIST criteria), AFP levels, and toxicity profiles; modify treatment upon radiologic progression, prohibitive toxicity, or declining performance status.
