Study Summary

This phase II trial evaluates lenvatinib for the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) that has come back (recurrent) after a liver transplant. HCC is a cancer of the liver and is the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths in the world. Liver transplantation is a potentially curative treatment option for HCC, however, up to 20% of patients develop recurrent disease after liver transplantation and prognosis remains poor. Lenvatinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Systemic treatments for HCC have not been studied in patients with recurrent HCC after liver transplantation, so there is no established therapy for these patients. This phase II trial evaluates lenvatinib for this purpose.

Primary Outcome

Assessed per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version 1.1. Tumor measurements are performed every 8 weeks. ORR will be calculated as a proportion (complete responses + partial responses / total patients) along with a 95% confidence interval (CI) using the Clopper-Pearson method. Chi-square tests or Fisher's exact tests will be used to compare the efficacy in term of response rate across different groups stratified by biomarkers or other factors, respectively.
