Spots Global Cancer Trial Database for Predictive Biomarkers in Patients With Advanced Hepatocellular Carcinoma Treated With Atezolizumab Plus Bevacizumab

Study Description

Brief Summary: The goal of this observational study is to learn about in patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma treated with atezoliozumab and bevacizumab. In this clinical study, we intend to analyze the multiomics data by analyzing the peripheral blood and tumor tissue before and after treatment of patients with advanced liver cancer receiving systemic drug treatment, and analyzing the correlation with the treatment. This is an exploratory study that aims to discover biomarkers that are highly correlated with treatment response.

Detailed Description: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the third most common cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide, and HCC is more frequently observed in Asia, including South Korea. As HCC is often accompanied by chronic hepatitis B or C virus and liver cirrhosis, treatment of HCC consider not only the tumor but also various factors such as liver function and the patient's performance status. Local treatment and surgery are possible in the early stages of HCC. However, it has a high recurrence rate even after curative surgeries due to underlying cirrhosis and the tumor microenvironment. Although several studies have investigated gene mutations and differences in treatment response in advanced HCC through next-generation sequencing (NGS), studies on transcriptome analysis of advanced HCC through RNA-sequencing are hard to find, with a need for future research into precise classification and clinical significance of HCC based on multi-omics data to establish multi-omics data and discover biomarkers highly associated with treatment response in HCC patients who received atezolizumab and bevacizumab combination.
