Current role of adjuvant treatment after curative treatment of HCC
Joint Hospital Surgical Grand RoundDr Arthur M. Y. Fung
Caritas Medical Centre19th October, 2013
Overview
• Only 10-30% of HCC are amenable to surgical resection1
• 50-90% of post-op death is due to recurrent disease2
• Sources of recurrence– Early recurrence (<2yr): intrahepatic metastasis of primary
tumour– Late recurrence (>2yr): multicentric de-novo
carcinogenesis• Objective of adjuvant treatment– Eradicate residual microscopic HCC foci– Prevent de-novo carcinogenesis

TACE
• Subgroup benefits– Portal vein tumour thrombus (Peng et al.)– Stage IIIA HCC (Zhong et al.)– >5cm tumour with high risk features, recurrence
within 2 years (Chen et al.)• Role– Early detection and treatment of residual tumour – ↓early recurrence – Overall survival benefit?
• Conclusion: further trials needed

• Systematic review by Zhong et al. 2012• 8 RCTs• Post-curative treatment (resection or local
ablation)• Treatment group: 3-10 million units of IFN
(intramuscular)• 2-year tumour recurrence and overall survival

Characteristics of included studies
• ≥50% with cirrhosis• Mixed HBV and HCV population
• 2-year recurrence RR = 0.84 (95% CI 0.73 – 0.97, P = 0.02)
• 2-year overall survival RR = 1.15 (95% CI 1.07 – 1.22, P< 0.001)

Interferon – individual studies
• Relative risk of death for interferon treatment = 0.42 (95% CI, 0.17–1.05; P0.063)
• DFS– Fewer recurrence at 6 months in stage III/IVa– Non-significant overall
Lo CM, Liu CL, Chan SC, Lam CM, Poon RT, Ng IO, et al. A randomized, controlled trial of postoperative adjuvant interferon therapy after resection of hepatocellular carcinoma. Ann Surg. 2007 Jun;245(6):831-42.
• OS– Stage I/II: no benefit– Stage III/IVA: improved 5-year survival from 24%
to 68% (p = 0.038)
• Multivariate analysis found pTNM stage was the only significant prognostic factor for survival
• Side effects– 3/31 stopped– 22/31 required dose reduction

only stage III/IVa benefit?• HCV related HCC: favourable• Further RCTs should target HBV & HCV

Bring home message• TACE: areas of further RCTs– Portal vein tumour thrombus– Stage IIIA HCC– >5cm tumour with high risk features, recurrence within 2
years• I-131: beneficial, but need larger RCTs• Interferon– Beneficial for HCV– Separate HBV & HCV studies are needed
• Nucleoside analogue– Beneficial for HBV– Clarify its role in early vs. advanced stage HCC
