Аннотация
BACKGROUND: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) accounts for approximately 90% of liver cancer cases. Sorafenib, the first drug to demonstrate survival benefits for advanced HCC, was validated through the SHARP randomized clinical trial (RCT). While RCTs are essential for assessing new therapies, real-world studies provide additional insights into their effectiveness in routine clinical practice. This study aimed to evaluate sorafenib's real-world effectiveness by analyzing overall survival (OS) and the time to radiological and symptomatic progression.
METHODS: Data from 368 patients treated with sorafenib at a Brazilian Cancer Center between 2009 and 2020 were retrospectively reviewed.
RESULTS: The median OS was 9.6 months, and the time to radiological progression was 5.3 months, similar to the SHARP trial. However, the time to symptomatic progression was shorter (2.3 months) than the SHARP study (4.1 months). In terms of safety, 27.4% of patients presented clinically relevant toxicities, and 24.5% needed to discontinue treatment due to toxicity.
CONCLUSIONS: Overall, sorafenib demonstrated effectiveness in the studied population, with OS and radiological progression times comparable to SHARP study results. The difference in symptomatic progression may be due to the study's retrospective nature and limitations.
