ICIs and Anti-VEGF Antibody/TKIs With or Without Interventional Therapy for Advanced HCC

Summary

This trial is designed to explore the efficacy and safety of interventional therapy combined with immune checkpoint inhibitors(ICIs) and anti-vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF) antibody/tyrosine kinase inhibitors in the treatment of advanced hepatocellular carcinoma. Eligible participants will be divided into two groups based on their treatment plans: one receiving ICIs combined with anti-VEGF drugs, and the other receiving ICIs combined with anti-VEGF drugs alongside interventional therapy, which includes C-TACE, D-TACE, and HAIC. The specific number and interval of interventional therapy sessions will be determined according to the patient's individual condition. Researchers will closely monitor and rigorously evaluate the efficacy and safety of the treatment in participants through follow-up assessments. The primary endpoint is the objective response rate , while secondary endpoints include disease control rate, progression-free survival, overall survival, duration of response, adverse events, and serious adverse events.
