ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
The aim of this study was to describe the safety and efficacy profiles of TACE using DC Beads LUMI. MATERIALS ANDMETHODS:
We retrospectively analyzed 90 patients with HCC who underwent TACE with DC Bead LUMI™ between November 2018 and November 2020 at Fondazione IRCCS Cà Granda Policlinico Hospital in Milan, Italy. Patient- and tumour-related factors were registered, including the number of treated lesions, dose of DC Beads LUMI™, dose of Epirubicin, DC Beads LUMI™ target tumour coverage (LC) according to the percentage of target nodule involvement (LC1-0%-25%, LC2-25%-50%, LC3-50%-75%, LC4 75%-100%). Treatment efficacy was obtained through reviewing the follow-up imaging for evidence of response in target lesion(s), according to modified response criteria in solid tumours (mRECIST) criteria with the followingoutcomes:
complete response (CR), partial response (PR), stable disease (SD) and progressive disease (PD). Safety assessment was based on the quantitative and qualitative recording of the adverse events, classified according to CIRSE classification.RESULTS:
Seventy-two patients were enrolled, and 95 procedures were carried out. We observed a target tumour response rate at 1 month with CR in 68%, PR in 10.3% 11.8%, SD in 13%, PD in 7.2%, and an overall tumour(s) (whole liver) response at 1 month with CR in 58.9%, PR in 12.6%, SD in 10.5% and PD in 18%. We found a significant association (p < 0.01) between tumour response CR or CR + PR and the number of the target lesion(s). CIRSE classification grade I and grade II complications were recorded, respectively, in 11 (11.6%) and 6 (6.3%) procedures. No grade III-IV-V complications occurred.CONCLUSION:
TACE using DC Beads LUMI is a safe and effective treatment option for patients with HCC.Palabras clave
