Study Details

Brief summary:

Given the number of anticipated durvalumab-based treatment launches in the hepatobiliary cancer space over the next 3 years, there is a need to capture contemporary real-world data across these indications. LIVER-R is a multi-country, multi-center, observational study of patients with a confirmed diagnosis of hepatobiliary cancer treated with or without a durvalumab-based regimen as part of routine clinical practice or early access program (EAP). The study design will include primary and secondary data collection. The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of regimens (durvalumab-based or otherwise) in real-world settings as measured by real-world overall survival. Other endpoints include demographics, clinical characteristics, clinically significant events of interest, treatment patterns, concomitant medications, treatment provider characteristics, and other real-world clinical endpoints (such as duration of treatment, progression-free survival, time to treatment progression, time to next treatment, time to treatment discontinuation, recurrence-free survival, and time to treatment recurrence).

eeHCC Specific Inclusion Criteria

A patient will be eligible to be included in the eeHCC cohort if they meet all general inclusion criteria 1-4 in addition to the following criteria:

1. HCC confirmed by radiological or histological diagnosis
2. Child-Pugh A-B7
3. Disease not amenable to curative treatment but amenable to LRT at index
4. Patients with liver-confined HCC who initiated first non-curative intent LRT on or after 01 January 2024
5. Patients eligible for LRT with palliative intent such as TACE/ TARE/transarterial infusion chemotherapy (TAIC)/ hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy (HAIC)/transarterial embolization (TAE) given by itself or in combination with other systemic therapy (can include durvalumab) within 60 days of the LRT

Study Design

Enrollment

4000 participants

Anticipated

Interventions and Outcome Measures

Arms

unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (uHCC)

advanced uHCC patients who had not received prior systemic therapy and were not eligible for LRT, as well as those who had progressed following LRT, and who have received a durvalumab-based regimen

advanced biliary tract cancer (aBTC)

patients with advanced BTC (aBTC) who are not eligible for resection and who have received a durvalumab-based regimen

eeHCC

uHCC patients with liver-confined disease not amenable to curative treatment but amenable to LRT who receive LRT alone or LRT followed by systemic therapy within 60 days (if administered in combination, LRT must be received first)

EMERALD

uHCC patients with liver-confined disease not amenable to curative treatment but amenable to LRT who receive durvalumab-based regimens in combination with LRT (durvalumab and LRT are given within 28 days of each other, regardless of order)

Interventions

Durvalumab-based combination therapies in observational study setting

Data on patients who initiated durvalumab-based regimens, including STRIDE (Single Tremelimumab Regular Interval Durvalumab), will be collected).

Durvalumab-based combination therapies in observational study setting

Data on patients who initiated durvalumab-based regimens, including durvalumab + chemotherapy combinations (e.g., Durvalumab + GemCis etc.) will be collected.

Non Durvalumab-based therapies in observational study setting

Data on patients who initiated non durvalumab-based regimens, including LRT alone or LRT followed by systemic therapies, will be collected.

Durvalumab-based combination therapies in observational study settings

Data on patients who initiated durvalumab-based regimens in combination with LRT, will be collected

Primary outcome measure

  • Real-world overall survival (rwOS) in all participants [ Time Frame: rwOS will be assessed as OS rates at 6, 12, 18, 24, and 36 months, as applicable per the type of hepatobiliary cancer; median OS for a minimum follow-up of 2 years. ]
