Regional Lymph Node Metastasis and Survival Outcomes in Advanced HCC

Regional Lymph Node Metastasis and Survival Outcomes in Advanced Hepatocellular Carcinoma Receiving Transarterial Chemoembolization and PD-(L)1 Inhibitors-based Immunotherapy

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 14 Mar 2025 · Not updated for over 12 months - ask the site whether it is still open

Brief summary (registry, in English)

Tumor-draining lymph nodes play an important role in anti-tumor immune responses. In patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), however, the relationship between regional lymph node metastasis (LNM) and immunotherapy-based efficacy is unclear. This study aimed to evaluate whether extrahepatic LNM is associated with worse survival outcomes as compared to other metastatic sites in patients with advanced HCC.
