Randomized Controlled Trial Multicenter Study
Transarterial chemoembolisation combined with lenvatinib plus pembrolizumab versus dual placebo for unresectable, non-metastatic hepatocellular carcinoma (LEAP-012): a multicentre, randomised, double-blind, phase 3 study.
Transarterial chemoembolisation (TACE) is standard care for unresectable, non-metastatic hepatocellular carcinoma. We aimed to evaluate the addition of lenvatinib and pembrolizumab to TACE versus dual placebo plus TACE in patients with unresectable, non-metastatic hepatocellular carcinoma. ⋯ Merck Sharp & Dohme, a subsidiary of Merck & Co, Inc, Rahway, NJ, USA, and Eisai, Nutley, NJ, USA.
