Abstract
Hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy (HAIC) for liver metastases (LMs) from breast cancer is not a standard of care, but its effectiveness in patients with extensive LMs who cannot tolerate systemic therapy has been reported. Herein, we report a case of breast cancer LMs that were controlled by anthracycline-based HAIC. A 46-year-old woman with estrogen receptor-positive, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative metastatic breast cancer who had multiple LMs and bone metastases underwent seven lines of systemic therapy (paclitaxel/bevacizumab for 38 months; letrozole, nivolumab/fulvestrant, eribulin, gemcitabine/vinorelbine, high-dose toremifene/abemaciclib, and capecitabine for 21 months in total). However, owing to its adverse effects and the continued progression of the LMs, systemic therapy was switched to HAIC (40 mg/body epirubicin on day 1, 4 mg/body mitomycin C on days 1 and 15, and 500 mg/body 5-fluorouracil on days 1, 8, and 15; 28-day courses). In response to HAIC, the LMs remarkably regressed and were controlled for 17 months without severe adverse effects. HAIC was stopped when multiple brain metastases arose, and the patient died 2 months later. This case suggests that HAIC is a reasonable option for patients with extensive LMs, even in the late stage of treatment. HAIC recipients should be carefully selected through multidisciplinary discussions as the survival benefits of HAIC over systemic treatment remain unclear. Our findings identify a potential window for the use of traditional chemotherapeutic agents such as anthracyclines. Novel strategies to improve drug delivery are warranted in the future.

[PMID: 36686799 PMCID: PMC9846108 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2022.1071860] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/17/2022] [Accepted: 12/09/2022] [Indexed: 01/05/2023] Open
Abstract
Background In recent years, hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy (HAIC) has gained popularity in the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma. Although several studies have been published, no bibliometric analysis have been conducted on this topic. Objectives To understand the development status and future trends in the application of HAIC, we conducted bibliometric analysis to examine the cooperation and influence among countries, institutions, authors, and journals. Methods All relevant articles and reviews on the use of HAIC in HCC treatment were retrieved from the Web of Science database. A bibliometric analysis of countries, institutions, journals, authors, and keywords related to this field was performed using R and VOSviewer software. The main aspects analyzed were the research status and key fields of HAIC in HCC treatment. Results A total of 1026 articles published in 292 journals by 4937 authors from 959 institutions between 1974 and 2021 were retrieved. A rapid increase in articles published after 1990 was observed, which reached the peak in 2021. Japan had the most publications and citations. Yonsei University, Sun Yat-sen University, and Hiroshima University were the three leading institutions in research on this topic. Kwang-Hyub Han and Masatoshi Kudo have the greatest academic influence in this field. Most publications were made in the Hepato-Gastroenterology, whereas cancer had the most citations. The main aspects of HAIC treatment of HCC include HAIC and TACE, chemotherapy drug selection, HAIC and targeted therapy and immunotherapy, HAIC and surgery, and hepatotoxicity. Keywords such as FOLFOX, lenvatinib, hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy are hot words in this field in recent years. Conclusion The research on the use of HAIC in the treatment of HCC has been on the rise. Currently, HAIC combined with targeted therapy or immunotherapy has attracted significant attention.

Gastroenterol Res Pract 2022; 2022:3546455. [PMID: 35529034 PMCID: PMC9068314 DOI: 10.1155/2022/3546455] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/10/2022] [Accepted: 02/16/2022] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the leading causes of cancer-related death, with most of the people who have the disease developing numerous liver metastases. Sixty percent of colon cancer patients have liver metastases. Only 25% of those with resectable hepatic metastases are alive, and recurrence occurs in nearly half of these cases. Regardless of the fact that left-sided cancer has a higher rate of liver metastases, past study reveals that left- and right-sided liver metastatic colon cancer patients have different survival rates. Hepatic artery infusion (HAI) combined with systemic chemotherapy is a treatment option for patients with unresectable liver-only or liver-dominant colon liver metastases. Although HAI has only been performed in a few locations previously, this study used randomized trials of floxuridine (FUDR) to characterize patient selection and first perioperative results during the deployment of a new HAI program. In this research, we also looked at the technical aspects of placing implantable pumps and catheters for HAI chemotherapy, as well as the efficacy, morbidity, and outcomes of this therapy in colon cancer patients with numerous liver metastases. The parameters like toxicity, overall survival rate, response rate, and progression-free response for the suggested therapy are also analyzed. These findings have important implications for colon cancer adjuvant HAI chemotherapy.
