Featuring Riccardo Lencioni, MD

01/23/2024

At the ASCO Gastrointesinal Cancers Symposium, Riccardo Lencioni, MD, Pisa University School of Medicine, Pisa, Italy, discussed the results from the phase 3 EMERALD-1 study. This trial found the combination of transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) and durvalumab, followed by durvalumab and bevacizumab, improved the progression-free survival (PFS) among patients with hepatocellular carcinoma, compared with TACE alone.
