Abstract
Aim
Lenvatinib mesylate (LEN) is an oral tyrosine kinase inhibitor used to treat various cancers, including hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). HCC treatment with LEN is associated with a very high incidence of adverse events. This study was aimed at investigating the incidence of LEN-induced palmar-planter erythrodysesthesia syndrome (PPES) and its relationship with patient demographics by analyzing clinical laboratory data of LEN-treated patients with HCC.
Methods
This was a single-centre, retrospective study of patients with HCC who received LEN between April 19, 2018, and September 30, 2020. The observation period was from 1 week before the start of LEN administration to 1 month after the end of administration.
Results
Overall, 75 patients with HCC were enrolled. LEN-induced PPES was found in 48.0% (36/75 patients). In these patients, alkaline phosphatase (ALP), γ-Glutamyl transpeptidase (γ-GTP) and monocytes (MONO) were significantly high (ALP: p = 1.32 × 10−3, γ-GTP: p = 4.25 × 10−3 and MONO: p = 0.013). The cut off values of ALP, γ-GTP and MONO for LEN-induced PPES were estimated at 573 U/L, 89 U/L, and 310 counts/μL, respectively. In the multivariate analysis, γ-GTP and MONO were independent risk factors for LEN-induced PPES.
Conclusions
High γ-GTP and high MONO were risk factors for LEN-induced PPES.
