Popis: This study aimed to evaluate the correlation between adverse events (AEs) and overall survival (OS) in patients with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma treated with atezolizumab plus bevacizumab (atezo/beva). This was a multicenter study in which 130 patients were enrolled. Hypertension and skin disorders had a significant correlation with longer survival (median survival time (MST): not reached vs. 14.3 months and not reached vs. 14.8 months, p = 0.001 and p = 0.047, respectively). In contrast, liver injuries were significantly correlated with shorter survival (MST: 14.7 months vs. not reached, p = 0.036), and the median development time was 21 days. In a logistic regression analysis, fatigue ≥ grade 2, liver injury ≥ grade 3, and modified albumin–bilirubin grade 2b were identified as independent factors for discontinuation due to AEs. The OS in the no discontinuation due to AE group was significantly longer than that in the discontinuation due to AEs group (MST not reached vs. 11.2 months, p = 0.001). We concluded that the development of liver injury was a negative factor for OS and that we should be vigilant in monitoring AE during atezo/beva treatments.
