Hepatic Arterial Infusion With Oxaliplatin & 23h Fluorouracil Versus Hepatic Arterial Infusion With Oxaliplatin & 46h Fluorouracil for Unresectable Hepatocellular Carcinoma：a Non-inferiority Study
Hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy (HAIC) with oxaliplatin\&5-fluorouracil was effective in unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The program of FOLFOX-HAIC in HCC was performed for 1 day (HAIC 1d) or 2 days (HAIC 2d). We hereby retrospectively compared the efficacy and safety between these two treatment regimens, and explored the predictive power of thymidylate synthase (TYMS), an enzyme involved in the DNA synthesis process and metabolism of fluorouracil. Patients with HCC staged BCLC A-B receive HAIC only, and patients with HCC staged BCLC C receive HAIC plus systemic treatment, such as sorafenib, A+T, lenvatinib.
• Age range from 18-75 years;
• KPS≥70;
• The diagnosis of HCC was based on the diagnostic criteria for HCC used by the European Association for the Study of the Liver (EASL), simultaneously staged as BCLC A, BCLC B or BCLC C based on Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer staging system.
• Patients must have at least one tumor lesion that can be accurately measured
• Diagnosed as unresectable with consensus by the panel of liver surgery experts
• No Cirrhosis or cirrhotic status of Child-Pugh class A only
• Meet the following laboratory parameters:(a) Platelet count ≥ 75,000/μL; b)Hemoglobin ≥ 8.5 g/dL;(c) Total bilirubin ≤ 30mmol/L;(d) Serum albumin ≥ 32 g/L;(e) ASL and AST ≤ 6 x upper limit of normal;(f) Serum creatinine ≤ 1.5 x upper limit of normal;(g) INR \> 2.3 or PT/APTT within normal limits; (h) Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) \>1,500/mm3;
• Ability to understand the protocol and to agree to and sign a written informed consent document.
