Notes

Child-Pugh A only fully studied (CP-B partial data; CP-C contraindicated). SHARP (NEJM 2008): first systemic agent with OS benefit in advanced HCC (mOS 10.7 vs 7.9 mo placebo); REFLECT established lenvatinib non-inferiority. Now largely 2L after atezo+bev or durva+treme; remains relevant in Child-Pugh B / when ICI contraindicated. HFSR pre-emptive: emollient, avoid friction and pressure, urea-containing creams as prophylaxis. Common dose- reduction: 400 → 200 mg BID for Grade 2-3 HFSR. Baseline + serial BP, LFTs, TSH, ECG. Hold for hypertensive crisis, severe HFSR with skin breakdown, hemorrhage, or hepatic decompensation. UA: зареєстрований; НСЗУ покриває ГЦК Child-Pugh A, RCC 2L+, радіойод-рефрактерний DTC.
