Abstract
Background and Objective Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the fourth leading cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide. Despite recent advances, more effective therapeutic options for patients with advanced HCC are still required. The aim of this Phase 2, multicenter, multinational, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study (NCT02528643) was to investigate the potential benefit of enzalutamide in the treatment of patients with advanced HCC. Methods Patients aged >= 18 years diagnosed with advanced HCC (Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer stage B or C and Child-Pugh class A at screening who had progressed on, or were intolerant to, sorafenib or other anti-vascular endothelial growth factor therapies) were randomized 2:1 to receive either enzalutamide 160 mg daily or placebo. The primary endpoint was overall survival (OS); secondary endpoints included progression-free survival (PFS) and safety. Results In total, 165 patients were randomized to enzalutamide (n = 110) or placebo (n = 55). The hazard ratio (HR) (95% confidence interval [CI]) for OS was 1.15 (0.774-1.696) and median OS was 7.8 months and 7.7 months for enzalutamide and placebo, respectively. The HR (95% CI) for PFS was 1.04 (0.732-1.474) and median PFS was 2.2 months and 1.9 months for enzalutamide and placebo, respectively. The overall frequency of treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) was broadly similar between the groups: 105 (98.1%) enzalutamide patients experienced >= 1 TEAEs compared with 49 (89.1%) placebo patients. Conclusions The results of this study indicate that enzalutamide does not provide a benefit in patients with advanced HCC. No unexpected safety findings were observed in the trial. ClinicalTrials.gov identifier NCT02528643.
