A new exploratory analysis of the HIMALAYA phase III trial involving patients with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (uHCC, an advanced liver cancer that could not be treated with surgery or other localized treatments) has shown that one in five (19.6%) participants treated with STRIDE (Single Tremelimumab Regular Interval Durvalumab) a combination of two immunotherapies, remained alive after five years of follow-up versus one in 10 (9.4%) participants treated with sorafenib, a standard treatment for uHCC when the study was designed.
