Pathological vs radiological response in neoadjuvant immunotherapy for HCC

Antonio D'Alessio, MD, Imperial College London, London, UK, discusses a follow-up analysis of the NeoHCC academic consortium, a global academic collaboration investigating neoadjuvant immunotherapy for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The primary analysis established a link between major pathological response and improved relapse-free survival (RFS). However, the follow-up highlights a key challenge: a mismatch between pathological and radiological response when assessing immune checkpoint inhibitors. Additionally, pathological response demonstrated a stronger correlation with RFS than radiological response when assessing immune checkpoint inhibitors, underscoring the need for refined trial endpoints in future HCC immunotherapy studies.
