Experts in liver cancer discuss changes to the treatment algorithm for advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), with an emphasis on selecting and sequencing treatment strategies based on the evidence, guidelines, and patient-related factors. Topics include pivotal safety and efficacy data on multikinase inhibitors, antiangiogenic agents, and immune checkpoint inhibitors used as monotherapy and in combinations with other immunotherapeutic agents or TKIs, clinical trials testing novel strategies and systemic therapies in various settings, and insights from the faculty members on translating treatment advances into clinical practice. Upon completion of this activity, participants should be better able to: Review pivotal safety and efficacy data on available multikinase inhibitors, antiangiogenic agents, single-agent checkpoint inhibitors, and immunotherapy combinations as first- and second-line treatment options for advanced HCC, Assess the validated and potential roles of immune checkpoint inhibitors, including strategies of monotherapy, dual checkpoint inhibition, and combination with targeted therapy, in the advanced HCC disease setting, Summarize ongoing clinical trials testing systemic therapies in the adjuvant setting and in combination with locoregional therapies across the disease spectrum of HCC, Develop safe and effective personalized treatment algorithms for patients with HCC, across multiple lines of therapy, based on current clinical evidence, guideline recommendations, treatment history, underlying liver disease, AFP levels, and individual patient needs.
