Descrizione riassuntiva dello studio

In this clinical study, the effects – good or bad – of Tecentriq plus Lenvatinib or Sorafenib will be compared to those of Lenvatinib or Sorafenib alone in patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma that has spread within the liver or to other parts of the body and/or cannot be surgically removed. Suitable candidates must have previously undergone combination treatment of HCC with Tecentriq plus Avastin, under which the carcinoma has nevertheless progressed. This study includes three parts: Screening: In this part, examinations are conducted to determine whether the patient is a suitable study participant. Treatment: All participants in this clinical study will be randomly assigned (like a coin toss: “heads or tails”) to one of two groups. One patient group will be treated with Tecentriq plus Sorafenib OR Tecentriq plus Lenvatinib. Tecentriq will be administered every three weeks as an infusion into a vein. Both Sorafenib and Lenvatinib are tablets to be taken either once daily (Sorafenib) or twice daily (Lenvatinib). The second patient group will receive either only Sorafenib OR only Lenvatinib, administered as described above. Each treatment cycle lasts 21 days. In both groups, it depends on the trial center whether you will receive Lenvatinib or Sorafenib. In any case, both patients and treating physicians know which treatment is being administered. The treatment will continue in both trial arms as long as it helps the patient. Follow-up: After stopping all study medications, patients will be followed up regarding survival and subsequent cancer therapies. During the follow-up phase, patients will be contacted by phone every three months or will attend clinical check-up appointments, as long as they consent.

Intervento studiato

Tecentriq is an antibody (a protein similar to antibodies produced by the immune system) that blocks the PD-L1 pathway (the apoptosis-inducing ligand 1). The PD-L1 pathway is involved in regulating the natural immune response. However, tumors can exploit this regulation to partially withstand or evade the immune system. By blocking the PD-L1 pathway, Tecentriq can help your immune system stop or reverse tumor growth. Tecentriq is approved in Switzerland in combination with Avastin for the treatment of patients with inoperable or metastatic HCC who have not received prior systemic therapy. Lenvatinib is a prescription medication used to treat various advanced cancers, such as HCC. Lenvatinib is a targeted therapy. It is directed at various receptors involved in pathological angiogenesis (the formation of new blood vessels), tumor growth, and disease progression. It binds to these receptors and inhibits them. By binding to these receptors, Lenvatinib blocks essential pathways that promote cell division. Sorafenib is also prescription medication and is used to treat various advanced cancers, such as HCC. Sorafenib targets several enzymes on the surface of cancer cells and inside the cell. For some of these target enzymes, it is believed that they are involved in angiogenesis (the formation of new blood vessels).

In the context of this clinical study, both Tecentriq and Lenvatinib and Sorafenib are investigational drugs. None of the active substances are approved by health authorities for the treatment of advanced HCC after its progression under treatment with Tecentriq plus Avastin.
