Background: Experience using sorafenib (SOR) after prior surgical resection (PSR) or transplant (OLT) for recurrent hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is limited. GIDEON is a global, prospective, non-interventional study to evaluate SOR safety under real-life conditions. We aimed to examine US patients (pts) who received SOR for recurrent HCC after PSR or OLT. The GIDEON registry contains one of the largest data series collected in US pts.
Methods: Pts with unresectable HCC who were candidates for systemic therapy and for whom a decision was made to treat with SOR were eligible for inclusion; pts may have undergone PSR or OLT. Disease characteristics, safety, and treatment duration were evaluated. All results are descriptive.
Results: In the US, 563 pts were evaluable for safety. 53 had PSR, 27 had OLT, and 6 had both. Median time in months from PSR to start of SOR was 9.3 (range 0.7-61.3) and from OLT was 23.7 (range 1.2-78.3; data were missing for 7 [26%] pts). Median SOR doses were similar among all groups (Table). Grade 3/4 serious adverse events (SAEs) were 32%/8% for pts with PSR and 31%/6% without PSR; 4%/4% for pts with OLT and 14%/5% without OLT. Grade 3/4 drug-related SAEs (DRSAEs) were 42%/6% for pts with PSR and 20%/2% without PSR; 11%/4% for pts with OLT and 4%/1% without OLT. Treatment-emergent deaths occurred in 26% of PSR pts, 33% of pts without PSR, 22% of OLT pts, and 33% of pts without OLT. No drug-related deaths occurred in PSR or OLT patients (<1% overall). Median overall survival [95% confidence interval] in the ITT population (n=553) from start of SOR was 471 [284-689] days for PSR and 338 [234-910] days for OLT.
Conclusions: SOR after PSR or OLT was well tolerated in this real-life setting. PSR or OLT pts experienced a similar or reduced frequency of SAEs compared with those with no PSR or OLT. However, DRSAEs were more frequent. PSR and OLT pts had better preserved liver function and longer SOR treatment duration than those without. Safety profiles are consistent with SOR clinical trials with no new findings. Despite the small number of PSR and OLT pts, GIDEON represents the largest US experience currently available.
