Clinical, Review, Journal, Adverse events: Expert Consensus on the Management of Adverse Events in Patients Receiving Lenvatinib for Hepatocellular Carcinoma. (Pubmed Central) - Mar 29, 2022 Therefore, to derive maximum treatment benefit and ensure long-term disease control, lenvatinib should be maintained at the highest possible dose when managing AEs. To conclude, lenvatinib-associated AEs can be managed with prophylactic measures, regular monitoring and symptomatic management, which can ensure continued treatment and maximum survival benefit in patients with advanced HCC receiving first-line lenvatinib therapy.

Clinical, Journal, Real-world evidence: Real world efficacy and safety of multi-tyrosine kinase inhibitors in radioiodine refractory thyroid cancer. (Pubmed Central) - Mar 26, 2022 The PFS and 6-month survival rate in patients treated with lenvatinib und pazopanib appear to compare favourably to sorafenib in the first line setting. However, more advanced disease stage at treatment initiation in sorafenib- and pazopanib-treated patients in the era prior to TKI-approval and the retrospective nature of this study precludes a direct comparison of TKIs.

Biomarker, Review, Journal: Update on International Medical Taxonomies of Biomarkers and Their Applications in Management of Thyroid Cancers. (Pubmed Central) - Mar 26, 2022 Sorafenib-tosylate, Doxorubicin-hydrochloride, Vandetanib, Cabozantinib-s-malate, Dabrafenib-mesylate, Trametinib-dimethyl-sulfoxide, Lenvatinib-mesylate, Pralsetinib and Selpercatinib are validated for TC treatment...On the basis of this analysis, BM taxonomies should have common standards internationally recognized. BMs show different efficiencies depending on their diagnostic or therapeutic use.

FATAL CARDIAC ARRHYTHMIAS SECONDARY TO PEMBROLIZUMAB TREATMENT ([VIRTUAL]) - Mar 23, 2022 - Abstract #SCCM2022SCCM_1287; Close outpatient monitoring and weekly testing of cardiac troponin and creatine kinase for the first 4 weeks of therapy may be beneficial. It is unclear if there are any predisposing factors to these adverse effects and further research may help oncologists risk stratify such patients.

Role of autophagy-mediated neuropilin-1 degradation on lenvatinib efficacy in human hepatocarcinoma (Poster Area) - Mar 16, 2022 - Abstract #EASLILC2022EASL_ILC_1166; Our results demonstrated that HCOs with specific structural features provide platform to identify the relationship between drug response and CSC-related signal in HCC. Autophagy-dependent NRP1 degradation seems to play a key role in lenvatinib efficacy in HCC, highlighting the potential interest of NRP1 silencing as a novel strategy to prevent therapeutic failure in advanced HCC.

Potential faesability of atezolizumab-bevacizumab therapy in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma: a real-world analysis (Poster Area) - Mar 16, 2022 - Abstract #EASLILC2022EASL_ILC_845; These patients have a better OS than noneligible ones, owing to a better baseline clinical profile. Therefore, TKIs will remain the front-line approach for most of the HCC patients qualified for systemic therapy, due to the stringent selection criteria dictated by immunotherapy trials and the use of TKIs currently extended to Child-Pugh B patients.
