Intelligence System for Predicting Atezolizumab-Bevacizumab Response and Clinical Outcomes in Unresectable Hepatocellular Carcinoma

This study is a multicenter retrospective clinical research, led by the First Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University, and jointly conducted by other sub-centers. The aim is to develop an non-invasive artificial intelligence system for predicting the response and clinical outcomes of patients with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (uHCC) to the treatment with atezolizumab combined with bevacizumab (T+A). In response to the clinical situation where approximately half of uHCC patients do not respond to the standard T+A therapy and traditional invasive biopsy is unable to fully reflect the heterogeneity of the tumor microenvironment, this study plans to retrospectively collect the data of 400 patients who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria from January 2020 to November 2025. The study will systematically summarize multi-dimensional data such as enhanced CT images within one month before treatment, baseline characteristics, serum markers, liver disease factors, and tumor stage. By integrating these clinical features with deep learning imageomics features extracted from images, the research team is dedicated to constructing and validating a safe, non-invasive, and reproducible prediction model, with the aim of achieving precise identification of the benefit population before implementing immunotherapy combined with anti-angiogenic treatment, and providing a powerful intelligent tool support for optimizing clinical treatment decisions and improving patient survival prognosis.

Evaluation of Efficacy and Safety of Immune Check Point Inhibitors in Hepatocellular Carcinoma Patients in Ain Shams University Hospitals

This study aims to evaluate the response to immunotherapy in HCC, assess the toxicity profile and measure overall survival within the study period. The primary end point is evaluation of progression free survival in HCC patients receiving immunotherapy. The secondary end point is to assess overall survival within the study period, duration of response and the response rate. The tertiary end point is to assess the toxicity profile.
