Résumé
Background Patients with intermediate- and advanced-stage hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) represent a highly heterogeneous patient collective with substantial differences in overall survival. Purpose To evaluate enhancing tumor volume (ETV) and enhancing tumor burden (ETB) as new criteria within the Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer (BCLC) staging system for optimized allocation of patients with intermediate- and advanced-stage HCC to undergo transarterial chemoembolization (TACE). Materials and Methods In this retrospective study, 682 patients with HCC who underwent conventional TACE or TACE with drug-eluting beads from January 2000 to December 2014 were evaluated. Quantitative three-dimensional analysis of contrast-enhanced MRI was performed to determine thresholds of ETV and ETB (ratio of ETV to normal liver volume). Patients with ETV below 65 cm <sup>3</sup> or ETB below 4% were reassigned to BCLC B <sub>n</sub> , whereas patients with ETV or ETB above the determined cutoffs were restratified or remained in BCLC C <sub>n</sub> by means of stepwise verification of the median overall survival (mOS). Results This study included 494 patients (median age, 62 years [IQR, 56-71 years]; 401 men). Originally, 123 patients were classified as BCLC B with mOS of 24.3 months (95% CI: 21.4, 32.9) and 371 patients as BCLC C with mOS of 11.9 months (95% CI: 10.5, 14.8). The mOS of all included patients (including the BCLC B and C groups) was 15 months (95% CI: 12.3, 17.2). A total of 152 patients with BCLC C tumors were restratified into a new BCLC B <sub>n</sub> class, in which the mOS was then 25.1 months (95% CI: 21.8, 29.7; P < .001). The mOS of the remaining patients (ie, BCLC C <sub>n</sub> group) (n = 222; ETV ≥65 cm <sup>3</sup> or ETB ≥4%) was 8.4 months (95% CI: 6.1, 11.2). Conclusion Substratification of patients with intermediate- and advanced-stage hepatocellular carcinoma according to three-dimensional quantitative tumor burden identified patients with a survival benefit from transarterial chemoembolization before therapy. © RSNA, 2022 Online supplemental material is available for this article.
