Respiratory symptoms, functional impairment, and pack-years of cigarette smoking were the most important determinants of the workers' general HRQOL.

To evaluate the efficacy and safety of cabozantinib in Japanese patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) who had progressed following one or two lines of systemic therapy including sorafenib. An exploratory evaluation in sorafenib-naïve patients was performed. In this open-label, single-arm, phase 2 trial, patients received oral cabozantinib 60mg once daily. The primary endpoint was progression-free survival (PFS) rate at Week 24. Secondary endpoints included PFS, overall survival (OS), objective response rate (ORR, best response of complete/partial response), disease control rate (DCR, objective response or stable disease) and safety. Thirty-four patients received cabozantinib across 17 centers (prior sorafenib cohort, n = 20; sorafenib-naïve cohort, n = 14). PFS rate at 24weeks was 59.8% [90% confidence interval (CI) 36.1-77.2%] in the prior sorafenib cohort, 16.7% (90% CI 4.0-36.8%) in the sorafenib-naïve cohort and 40.1% (90% CI 24.8-55.0%) overall. Median PFS was 7.4months for the prior sorafenib cohort, 3.6months for the sorafenib-naïve cohort, and 5.6months overall. OS rate at 6months was 100.0%, 78.6% and 91.1%, respectively; DCR was 85.0%, 64.3% and 76.5%, respectively. The ORR was 0.0% for both cohorts. All patients required dose modifications due to adverse even
