Summary

The goal of this interventional study (clinical trial) is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of adding dapagliflozin to first-line standard therapy in patients with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and comorbid metabolic syndrome.

The main questions it aims to answer are:

Does the addition of dapagliflozin to first-line therapy improve the objective response rate (ORR) compared with first-line therapy alone in this patient population?

What are the differences between the two treatment groups in terms of overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS), and safety/tolerability profiles?

Researchers will compare the combination group (dapagliflozin plus first-line standard therapy) with the control group (first-line standard therapy alone) to determine whether the addition of dapagliflozin provides superior clinical benefit.

Participants in the combination group will receive dapagliflozin in addition to their prescribed first-line standard therapy, while participants in the control group will receive first-line standard therapy alone. All participants will be regularly monitored for tumor response, survival outcomes, and adverse events throughout the study period.

The findings of this trial are expected to provide clinical evidence supporting the use of dapagliflozin as an adjunctive therapy in patients with advanced unresectable HCC and metabolic syndrome, potentially enhancing the tumor response rate to existing standard-of-care treatments.
