Introduction and Objectives

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the third most common cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide. We aimed to explore HCC-related population-wide public health policies (PHP) worldwide.

Materials and Methods

We conducted a 43-item survey about HCC: policies and civil society (18 questions), clinical guidelines (5 questions), epidemiology (7 questions), and care management (13 questions). The survey was completed electronically (2022–2023). Data were collected in a spreadsheet, revised by two independent reviewers, and verified with governmental institutions, regulatory agencies, scientific societies, and scientific publications. We classified policies into eight dimensions, including criteria for low, moderate, and strong PHP establishment. We estimated an index using multiple correspondence analysis.

Results

We obtained 134 responses from 66 countries/territories (Africa N=16, the Americas N=18, Asia N=10, Europe N=21, and Oceania N=1). The median index was 43.7 [IQR: 30.9–59.3]. The lower scores were observed in Sierra Leone (0), Lebanon (5.5), and Pakistan (5.5), while Italy (79.7), Brazil (94.1), and Sweden (100) obtained the highest scores (Figure). In particular, 46 (69.7%) countries had a written national cancer strategy or action plan, but only 5 (7.6%) had a specific written national strategy or action plan on HCC. Thirty-two (48.5%) countries had national clinical practice guidelines on HCC and 54 (81.8%) countries had a national disease registry that included HCC. The most common strategies for staging HCC were Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer (BCLC)(85%) and TNM classification (10%). The survey reflects important differences in the availability of treatments, including surgery (98.4%), tyrosine kinase inhibitors (95.1%), chemoembolization (85.2%), radiofrequency or alcohol ablation (82%), immunotherapy plus anti-VEGF (82%), liver transplant (74.2%), stereotactic body radiation therapy (42.6%), and radioembolization (36.4%).

Conclusions

The existence of PHP on HCC is insufficient worldwide. The most common strategy for staging is BCLC, but there are important differences in treatment availability across countries, especially regarding curative therapies.
