In patients with uHCC in real-world clinical practice in Japan, treatment with lenvatinib was generally well tolerated, and no new safety concerns were identified. The ORR and median OS were similar to or better than the results of the Japanese subset of the global Phase III REFLECT trial. Our results demonstrated that clinically meaningful treatment responses were achieved with lenvatinib in real-world clinical practice.
