Abstract:
e16179 Background: Cabozantinib is licensed for use as second- or third-line treatment for sorafenib-exposed advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (aHCC) based on the phase III CELESTIAL trial. However, its use in the post-immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) setting has yet to be described. We evaluated the pattern of use, efficacy, survival and tolerability of cabozantinib in aHCC patients with previous treatment by ICIs. Methods: We did a multi-centre, territory-wide study analysing aHCC patients who received cabozantinib after prior ICIs. Objective response rate (ORR), disease control rate (DCR), time-to-progression (TTP), overall survival (OS) and treatment related adverse events (TRAEs) were assessed. Results: Thirty-one patients were included. The median age was 58.0 (range 41-85) and 77.4% had Child-Pugh A cirrhosis. 51.6% of patients received single agent cabozantinib and 48.4% received cabozantinib in combination with ICIs. ≥80% of patients received cabozantinib beyond the second-line and 93.5% of patients had prior TKIs. All patients received prior anti-PD-1 and 61.3% had prior anti-CTLA-4. The median follow-up was 15.2 months. For single agent cabozantinib patients, the ORR was 6.3%, DCR was 31.3% and median TTP was 3.5 months (95% C.I. 1.2-5.8). For cabozantinib-ICI combination patients, the ORR was 6.7%, DCR was 26.7% and median TTP was 2.3 months (95% C.I. 1.4-3.1). The overall median OS was 8.9 months (95% C.I. 5.7-11.9). Single agent cabozantinib patients had a significantly shorter OS compared to cabozantinib-ICI combination patients (8.3 months (95% C.I. 1.3-15.2) vs. 15.1 months (95% C.I. 11.1-19.2), p = 0.047). There was no significant difference in OS among patients with primary resistance to prior ICI regimes compared to those with acquired resistance (primary resistance 8.28 months (95% C.I. 5.04-11.5) vs. acquired resistance 8.90 months (95% C.I. 3.49-14.3), p = 0.472). Overall, 67.7% and 6.5% of patients experienced TRAEs of all grade and grade ≥3 respectively. The most common TRAE was hand-foot syndrome. 62.5% of single agent cabozantinib patients had any grade TRAE and no such patients had grade ≥3 TRAE. Conclusions: Cabozantinib had good anti-tumour activity and survival outcomes with acceptable toxicity in aHCC patients with previous treatment by ICIs.
