Triple Therapy Improves Survival in High-Risk Advanced Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Triple therapy with folfox-based hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy, tyrosine kinase inhibitors, and PD-1 inhibitors significantly prolonged overall survival (24.6 vs 11.9 months) and progression-free survival (10.0 vs 7.7 months) compared to dual therapy. The triple-therapy group also had higher response rates and more patients converted to non-high-risk status, showcasing its potential as a first-line treatment for high-risk advanced hepatocellular carcinoma.

• Why it matters: High-risk advanced hepatocellular carcinoma presents low survival rates and options.
