Heterogeneity and Evolution of hepatoceLlular Carcinoma in Post-transplant HCC Recurrence (HELP-2020)
Translational Study of Molecular-subtype Heterogeneity and Evolution Pattern in Patients With hepatoceLlular Carcinoma Post-transplant Relapse - HELP 2020 Cohort Study
Objective of Study: This study will evaluate the heterogeneity and evolution pathway between primary HCC and tumor relapse after liver transplant.
According to the "Seed-Soil" theory, the primary hypothesis of this study is that HCC patients with different molecular-subtype experience altered different pattern of post-transplant recurrence, thus may have altered postoperative Recurrence-Free Survival (RFS). Because the donors' liver construct different microenvironment for CTC(circulating tumor cells) colonization. The investigators design this translational study to ①explore potential high recurrent risk HCC molecular-subtypes which might benefit from neoadjuvant systematic therapy or early adjuvant systematic therapy;②identify the molecular subtype heterogeneity of primary and recurrent HCC to guide the precision medicine.

Cohorts and Interventions

Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
Retrospective cohort
20 HCC patients experienced post-transplant HCC
|
Liver transplantation for hepatocellular carcinoma has the potential to eliminate both the tumor as well as the underlying cirrhosis and is the ideal treatment for HCC in cirrhotic liver as well as massive HCC in noncirrhotic liver.
xome sequencing analysis of liver tumors could reveal mutational signatures associated with specific risk factors of recurrence.

Perspective cohort
20 HCC patients who underwent liver transplant, the patients would be recruited if recurrence would be diagnosed >6 months after liver transplant

What is the study measuring?
Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
molecular-subtype heterogeneity between primary HCC and post-transplant HCC recurrence
Time Frame: up to 2 years
|
It is defined as the change of HCC molecular subtype by comparing the primary tumor with intrahepatic or intrapulmonary recurrent tumor.
|
up to 2 years
|
Secondary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
molecular-subtype
Time Frame: up to 2 years
|
I.Progenitor Type: defined by the transcriptional and protein overexpression of hepatic progenitor markers, inactivating mutations in RPS6KA3 and AXIN1 and hyperphosphorylation of ERK. The main signalling pathways specifically activated in the progenitor subclass are IGF1R and AKT. II.TGFβ-Wnt Type: characterised by activation of both TGFβ and Wnt pathways and an exhausted immune response. Also, an enrichment in TP53 inactivating mutations, amplification of FGF19 and CCND1, as well as frequent activation of pro-survival signalling pathways including cell cycle, mTOR, RAS-MAPK and MET can be detected. III.G4 Type: It frequently harbour a steatohepatitic phenotype, as well as exhibiting activation of the IL6/JAK-STAT pathway. IV.CTNNB1 Type: a subset of HCC harbouring CTNNB1 mutations. TERT promoter mutations are more frequent in this subclass |
up to 2 years
|
Recurrence-Free Survival (RFS)
Time Frame: up to 3 years
|
RFS is defined as the time from inclusion to first documentation of disease recurrence (intrahepatic or intrapulmonary) as assessed by BICR or by pathology consistent with HCC if required per the site's standard of care, or death due to any cause (both cancer and non-cancer causes of death)
|
up to 3 years
