Abstract
AIM We aimed to investigate the prognostic factors for salvage liver transplant in patients with early hepatocellular carcinoma recurrence after hepatectomy. METHODS This retrospective analysis included 53 patients who underwent salvage living-donor liver transplantation between January 2007 and January 2018. There were 24 and 29 patients in the early (recurrence ≤24 months after primary liver resection) and the late recurrence groups, respectively. RESULTS In the multivariate Cox regression model, pre-liver transplant downstaging therapy, early recurrence (ER) after primary liver resection , and recurrence-to-liver-transplant ≥12 months were independent risks to predict recurrent hepatocellular carcinoma recurrence after salvage living-donor liver transplantation. Compared with the late recurrence group, the ER group showed lower disease-free survival rates (p < 0.001); however, the overall survival rates did not differ between the two groups (p = 0.355). The 1-, 3-, and 5-year disease-free survival rates were 83.3%, 70.6%, and 66.2%, and 96.0%, 91.6%, and 91.6% in the early and late recurrence groups, respectively. When stratified by recurrence-to-liver transplant time and pre-liver transplant downstaging therapy in the ER group, disease-free survival and overall survival rates were significantly different. CONCLUSION ER after primary liver resection with advanced tumor status and a longer period of recurrence-to-liver-transplant (≥12 months) have a negative impact on salvage liver transplant. Our findings provide novel recommendations for treatment strategies and eligibility for salvage liver transplant candidates.

Abstract
Purpose Using a combination model of preoperative imaging and clinical factors to predict non-transplantable recurrence (NTR) after liver resection and assist solitary hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients in the selection of early treatment options. Patients and Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on 253 solitary HCC patients who underwent radical resection and had preoperative MRI. NTR patients were defined as those exceeding the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) criteria at the time of recurrence. Cox regression analysis was employed to identify preoperative factors associated with NTR based on clinical and tumor imaging characteristics. A risk scoring model (NTRScore) was developed and validated. Results Among the 253 patients, 86 (33.9%) experienced recurrence, and among those with recurrence, 34 patients (39.5%) developed NTR. In multivariate analysis, factors associated with NTR included alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) [>10 ng/mL] [HR: 3.42, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.54-7.63, P: 0.003], arterial phase hyperenhancement (APHE) [HR: 2.23, 95% CI: 1.03-4.81, P: 0.041], washout[HR: 0.35, 95% CI: 0.15-0.84, P: 0.019], and capsule [HR: 0.44, 95% CI: 0.22-0.88, P: 0.021]. The β-coefficients of these variables were utilized to develop the weighted NTRScore(c-index 0.72, 95% CI: 0.65-0.79). The NTR occurrence increased across the three categories (low: 5.6%, medium: 13.6%, high: 35.1%, p < 0.001), and the Kaplan-Meier curves of recurrence-free survival(RFS) and overall survival(OS) show significant differences (p = 0.004 and p<0.001). Furthermore, the higher NTR categories may be associated with an increased risk of extrahepatic recurrence. Conclusion The NTRScore demonstrated strong discriminatory ability and may serve as a clinically useful tool to assist in risk stratification and potential to guide treatment and optimal surveillance for patients of solitary hepatocellular carcinoma within UCSF criteria.

Primary versus Salvage Liver Transplantation after Curative-Intent Resection or Radiofrequency Ablation for Hepatocellular Carcinoma: Long-Term Oncological Outcomes. Cancers (Basel) 2023; 15:5030. [PMID: 37894397 PMCID: PMC10605470 DOI: 10.3390/cancers15205030] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/20/2023] [Revised: 10/02/2023] [Accepted: 10/10/2023] [Indexed: 10/29/2023] Open
Abstract
Liver transplantation for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) may be performed ab initio, primary liver transplantation (PLT), or for HCC recurrence after previous treatments such as liver resection (LR) or radiofrequency ablation (RFA), salvage liver transplantation (SLT). The aim of this study was to evaluate the oncological outcomes of SLT vs. PLT. For this, a retrospective study was carried out on patients undergoing liver transplantation for HCC. The outcomes of PLT were compared with those of SLT. The primary outcome was disease-free survival (DFS). The secondary outcomes included overall survival (OS), cancer-specific survival (CSS), and major postoperative complications. A sub-analysis of SLT-LR and SLT-RFA was also performed. In total, 141 patients were included: 96 underwent PLT and 45 SLT. Among the SLT group, 25 patients had undergone previous LR while 20 had had RFA. There were no differences in the major postoperative complications. Unadjusted DFS was significantly longer in the PLT group (p = 0.02), as were OS (p = 0.025) and CSS (p = 0.001). There was no difference in DFS between PLT and SLT-LR groups, while a significant difference was found between the PLT and SLT-RFA groups (p = 0.035). Nonetheless, DFS was no different between the SLT-LR and SLT-RFA groups. PLT appears to offer superior long-term oncological outcomes to SLT. Both SLT-LR and SLT-RFA offer acceptable OS and CSS. Further prospective studies are needed to confirm these results, but the re-direction of grafts and transplant philosophy towards PLT rather than SLT may need to be considered.

Salvage versus Primary Liver Transplantation for Hepatocellular Carcinoma: A Twenty-Year Experience Meta-Analysis. Cancers (Basel) 2022; 14:3465. [PMID: 35884526 PMCID: PMC9320001 DOI: 10.3390/cancers14143465] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/18/2022] [Revised: 07/04/2022] [Accepted: 07/12/2022] [Indexed: 02/04/2023] Open
Abstract
(1) Background: Primary liver transplantation (PLT) for HCC represents the ideal treatment. However, since organ shortage increases the risk of drop-out from the waiting list for tumor progression, a new surgical strategy has been developed: Salvage Liver Transplantation (SLT) can be offered as an additional curative strategy for HCC recurrence after liver resection. The aim of this updated meta-analysis is to compare surgical and long-term outcomes of SLT versus PLT for HCC. (2) Materials and Methods: A systematic review and meta-analysis was conducted using the published papers comparing SLT and PLT up to January 2022. (3) Results: 25 studies describing 11,275 patients met the inclusion criteria. The meta-analysis revealed no statistical difference in intraoperative blood loss, overall vascular complications, retransplantation rate, and hospital stay in the SLT group compared with the PLT group. However, the SLT group showed a slightly significant lower 5-year OS rate and 5-year disease-free survival rate. (4) Conclusion: meta-analysis advocates the relative safety and feasibility of both Salvage LT and Primary LT strategies. Specifically, SLT seems to have comparable surgical outcomes but slightly poorer long-term survival than PLT.

Abstract
Increasing evidence has suggested that elevated systemic inflammation with a high neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) is associated with poor prognosis after liver transplantation (LT). The ongoing molecular events involved in poor survival remain unclear. This retrospective study evaluated LT recipients whose data was collected at Kaohsiung Chang Gung Memorial Hospital between 2005 and 2014. Clinical records of 347 patients with hepatocellular carcinoma from seven days before LT to 30 days after LT illustrated that longitudinal values of lymphocytes, RBC, and hemoglobin were persistently low in patients with peritransplant high NLR (PTH-NLR, pre-LT ≥ 4 and post-LT ≥ 5), which indicated a significantly worse survival rate in association with increased RDW-CV and pancytopenia when compared to other patients (p = 0.008). We further found that PTH-NLR patients had decreased DNA damage response (DDR) genes and detoxifying enzymes of ADH and ALDH families, and increased mitochondrial stress response genes in their liver tissues. Reduced lineage markers of liver progenitor cells were also observed in PTH-NLR patients signifying the presence of unresolved impairments after LT. Our results demonstrate the association between hematopoietic deficiencies and lack of protection against DDR with PTH-NLR in LDLT recipients with HCC and may imply abnormal hematological and organismal defects in those patients.

Salvage living donor liver transplantation for hepatocellular carcinoma recurrence after hepatectomy: Quantitative prediction using ADV score. JOURNAL OF HEPATO-BILIARY-PANCREATIC SCIENCES 2020; 28:1000-1013. [PMID: 33175453 DOI: 10.1002/jhbp.863] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/26/2020] [Revised: 10/27/2020] [Accepted: 10/29/2020] [Indexed: 12/25/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Salvage liver transplantation is a definite treatment for recurrent hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) after hepatectomy. ADV score is calculated by multiplying α-fetoprotein and des-γ-carboxyprothrombin concentrations and tumor volume. Prognostic accuracy of ADV score was assessed in patients undergoing salvage living donor liver transplantation (LDLT) and their outcomes were compared with patients undergoing primary LDLT. METHODS This study was a retrospective, single-center, case-controlled study. Outcomes were compared in 125 patients undergoing salvage LDLT from 2007 to 2018 and in 500 propensity score-matched patients undergoing primary LDLT. RESULTS In patients undergoing salvage LDLT, median intervals between hepatectomy and tumor recurrence, between first HCC diagnosis and salvage LDLT, and between hepatectomy and salvage LDLT were 12.0, 37.2, and 29.3 months, respectively. Disease-free survival (DFS, P = .98) and overall survival (OS, P = .44) rates did not differ significantly in patients undergoing salvage and primary LDLT. Pretransplant and explant ADV scores were significantly predictive of DFS and OS in patients undergoing salvage and primary LDLT (P < .001). DFS after prior hepatectomy (P = .52) and interval between hepatectomy and LDLT (P = .82) did not affect DFS after salvage LDLT. Milan criteria and ADV score were independently prognostic of DFS and OS following salvage LDLT, and prognosis of patients within and beyond Milan criteria could be further stratified by ADV score. CONCLUSIONS Risk factors and posttransplant outcomes were similar in patients undergoing salvage and primary LDLT. ADV score is surrogate biomarker for posttransplant prognosis in salvage and primary LDLT recipients. Prognostic model incorporating ADV scores can help determine whether to perform salvage LDLT.

Abstract
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the major causes of morbidity, mortality, and healthcare expenditure in patients with chronic liver disease in India. The Indian National Association for Study of the Liver (INASL) had published its first guidelines on diagnosis and management of HCC (The Puri Recommendations) in 2014, and these guidelines were very well received by the healthcare community involved in diagnosis and management of HCC in India and neighboring countries. However, since 2014, many new developments have taken place in the field of HCC diagnosis and management, hence INASL endeavored to update its 2014 consensus guidelines. A new Task Force on HCC was constituted that reviewed the previous guidelines as well as the recent developments in various aspects of HCC that needed to be incorporated in the new guidelines. A 2-day round table discussion was held on 5th and 6th May 2018 at Puri, Odisha, to discuss, debate, and finalize the revised consensus statements. Each statement of the guideline was graded according to the Grading of Recommendations Assessment Development and Evaluation system with minor modifications. We present here the 2019 Update of INASL Consensus on Prevention, Diagnosis, and Management of Hepatocellular Carcinoma in India: The Puri-2 Recommendations.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The survival outcomes of recurrent hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) after curative resection remain unclear due to lack of clear basis for the selection of treatment option. We investigated overall survival (OS) after intrahepatic recurrence and re-recurrence free survival (rRFS) of the patients with recurrent HCC, and whether Milan criteria (MC) status at resection and recurrence impacts on OS and rRFS. METHOD We enrolled 959 patients who experienced recurrence after primary hepatic resection for HCC. We divided the cohort into four groups according to MC at two periods: IN-rIN MC (HCC within MC at the time of resection-recurrence within MC), IN-rOUT MC (HCC within MC at the time of resection-recurrence outside MC), OUT-rIN MC (HCC outside MC at the time of resection-recurrence within MC), and OUT-rOUT MC (HCC outside MC at the time of resection-recurrence outside MC). RESULTS In the entire cohort, 1-, 3-, and 5-year OS after recurrence was 81.0%, 55.7%, and 45.8%, respectively, while rRFS was 63.7%, 46.1%, and 42.0%, respectively. The IN-rIN MC group had the best outcomes (5-year OS and rRFS, 54.5% and 45.7%, respectively). The IN-rOUT and OUT-rIN MC groups had better 5-year OS outcomes than the OUT-rOUT MC group (46.5%, 38.6%, and 24.8%, respectively; P < 0.05). However, 5-year rRFS did not differ among the three groups (37.5%, 36.6%, and 31.9%, respectively; P > 0.05). CONCLUSION Survival after first recurrence following curative primary resection for HCC was affected by MC at both time of resection and recurrence. Both the IN-rOUT and OUT-rIN MC groups with similar survival outcomes can be saved via curative treatment.
