Abstract
Open AccessWith the widespread application of systemic treatments for hepatocellular carcinoma, liver injury caused by molecular targeted drugs and immune checkpoint inhibitors has become a common clinical problem. The Chinese Society of Hepatology, Chinese Medical Association, organized domestic experts to summarize and analyze adverse liver reactions, as well as advances in the diagnosis and treatment related to systemic therapy for liver cancer, both domestically and internationally. Based on this work, we formulated the "Consensus on the Management of Liver Injury Associated with Targeted Drugs and Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors for Hepatocellular Carcinoma", aiming to provide practical recommendations and decision-making guidance for clinicians in hepatology and related specialties. This guidance focuses on the monitoring, diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of liver injury during targeted and immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy, ultimately helping more liver cancer patients benefit from targeted immunotherapy.
