Interventional Oncology LEGACY Study

Legacy Study.

The LEGACY study is a robust multi-centre study confirming TheraSphereTM as a neoadjuvant or
standalone therapy in treating HCC.*


Included 162 consecutive treated patients with HCC |
Presented by Riad Salem, MD at CIRCE 2020.

Exceeding the Standards of Care


"We studied Y-90 in HCC patients at all stages of the disease and we found that it was either equal to or better than the current standards of care but providing a much more gentle treatment for patients. And that was enough to seal the deal."

Prof. Riad Salem, MD an Interventional Radiologist at Northwestern Memorial Hospital

Exceeding the Standards of Care
 

Study Objective

To assess local tumor control and duration of response following treatment with Y-90 glass microspheres in patients with unrespectable solitary HCC lesions.

 

Key Study Results

Patients in the LEGACY study responded to TheraSphereTM treatment(s)
Overall Survival rate in patients with transplant or resection following TheraSphereTM at 3 years
Demonstrated rate of best response by TheraSphereTM

Overall Survival

(Treated population)

93% overall survival rate in patients with transplant or resection following TheraSphereTM at 3 years.

Tumor Response

Tumor Response

(Best Response in evaluable population, localized mRECIST)
88% demonstrated rate of best response by TheraSphereTM (i.e. CR, PR) by localized mRECIST.

 

Study Design:

Multi-center, single-arm, retrospective study conducted at 3 U.S. sites.** Consecutive patients meeting the eligibility criteria were treated with TheraSphereTM Y-90 Glass Microspheres at each site between January 2014 and December 2017.


First and Only:

  • Used highly clinically relevant criteria for localized tumor control (mRECIST)
  • Reported a median dose to perfused liver volume of 410 Gy
  • Demonstrated 100% of patients achieved CR or PR (localized mRECIST)

Key Eligibility Criteria:

Unresectable solitary lesions (≤ 8 cm); Selective, lobar, or mixed administration of Y-90 glass microspheres (TheraSphereTM); Treatment purpose (neoadjuvant to transplantation or resection or stand-alone treatment); Child-Pugh score A; BCLC A or BCLC C (ECOG 1); No prior liver transplantation, resection, locoregional treatment or systemic therapy; No portal vein thrombosis or extrahepatic disease.


 
Timeline
 

Primary Study Endpoints Were Met

Determined by Blinded Independent Central Review (BICR)

Objective Responsive Rate

Objective Response Rate (ORR) defined as CR or PR using localized mRECIST (defined as the response within the Y-90 glass microspheres treatment area) with confirmation of response (>4 weeks).

Duration of Response (> 6 months)

Duration of Response (DoR) using localized mRecist.

Safety: Majority of adverse events were mild and resolved without medical intervention.

LEGACY STUDY CONCLUSION:


LEGACY is the first multi-centre study to report a high median perfused volume absorbed dose of 410 Gy with TheraSphereTM, which resulted in an 88% best response, excellent and durable tumor control and high overall survival rate in patients with early and advanced HCC.
