Survival and adverse events of elderly patients treated with sorafenib for hepatocellular carcinoma

IntroductionThe first-line treatment for advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is atezolizumab plus bevacizumab, but its availability is not universal and elderly patients are underrepresented in clinical trials. There is little evidence of efficacy and tolerability in elderly patients under syste...

There is little evidence of efficacy and tolerability in elderly patients under systemic treatment. The aims of this study were to characterize the profile of elderly patients treated with sorafenib, assess their survival and safety profile in order to extrapolate their eligibility for systemic treatment. MethodsRetrospective multicentre study of HCC patients aged >= 75 years old treated with sorafenib from January 2008 to December 2019. Demographic data, baseline characteristics, and variables related to HCC and sorafenib were recorded. Overall survival (OS) and safety were analyzed. ResultsThe study included 206 patients from 11 hospitals, median age 77.9 years; 71.4% men and 62.6% stage Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer- C (BCLC-C). The main causes of cirrhosis were hepatitis C (60.7%) and alcohol (14.7%). Most patients (84.5%) started with sorafenib 800mg and 15.5% at lower dosage. Arterial hypertension (AHT) (74.2 vs 62.2%; standardized mean differences (STD): 26) and baseline ECOG-PS>0 (45.3 vs 34.7%; STD: 38.2) differed significantly between patients receiving low and full doses. Median OS was 15.4 months (18.2 in BCLC-B vs 13.6 in BCLC-C). OS was not modified by comorbidities, age or period with more expertise.
