Clinical takeaways

  • LEAP-012 further supports the approach of combining locoregional therapies with IO-based therapies
  • Locoregional therapies combined with IO-based therapies should be more frequently considered in clinical practice, particularly for patients with intermediate HCC, as a potential strategy to downstage or downsize the disease
  • Future directions include additional data on overall survival and quality of life, to further define the long-term benefits and clinical applicability
  • Know the latest data of the multimodal approach for intermediate HCC, combining systemic treatment with TACE
  • Be able to place the LEAP-012 results into clinical context, in order to make informed treatment decisions
