Core Tip |
In this article, we comment on the case report by Park et al, published in the recently reporting a fatal intra-tumoral hemorrhage in a patient with hepatocellular carcinoma following successful treatment with atezolizumab/bevacizumab. Multiple predictive factors have been reported to be associated with such condition. They can be categorized as either patient-related (age, systemic hypertension, and use of anticoagulants), liver disease-related (degree of liver decompensation and thrombocytopenia), or tumor-related (portal vein thrombosis). However, future studies are required to assess the long-term safety of this combination in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma. |
