Roche: positive data in liver cancer study
(CercleFinance.com) - Roche has announced that the phase III IMbrave050 study of Tecentriq plus Avastin in people with early-stage hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) at high risk of recurrence after surgery has met its primary endpoint.
In the interim analysis of this study, the combination Tecentriq-Avastin showed a statistically significant improvement in liver cancer recurrence-free survival compared to active surveillance.
New adjuvant therapies are urgently needed as an estimated 70%-80% of people with early-stage HCC experience disease recurrence after surgery, Roche said.
