Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) plus antiangiogenic agents can achieve better efficacy than sorafenib in the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) within a certain period of time, but more than half of the patients are still insensitive to the treatment. There is no evidence-based basis for second-line treatment after the progression of the disease.In view of the effectiveness of Hepatic arterial infusion (HAIC) in the first-line treatment of HCC in the Chinese population, this study intends to launch a prospective intervention study to explore the efficacy and safety of HAIC treatment in patients with advanced HCC after the failure of ICIs and antiangiogenic agents combination therapy, and to provide high-level evidence for optimizing the second-line treatment of advanced HCC in the future.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Each patient received an artery catheter procedure guided by digital subtraction angiography. Then, the FOLFOX (oxaliplatin 130 mg/m\^2, leucovorin 200 mg/m\^2, fluorouracil 400 mg/m\^2, and fluorouracil 2,400 mg/m\^2) regimen was sequentially infused through the catheter every cycle (3 weeks).A maximum of 4-6 courses of continuous hepatic artery infusion chemotherapy were received.If the patient has extrahepatic metastasis at baseline, ICIs should be used as a systemic treatment according to the severity of the disease. The drug type and treatment protocol of ICIs should be based on the most advanced treatment progress in the world.

Exclusion Criteria

Local treatments for HCC have been performed within 4 weeks, including surgical resection (including liver transplantation), local ablation, transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE or TAE), radiotherapy (including brachytherapy).

A history of liver decompensation, such as refractory ascites, gastrointestinal bleeding, or hepatic encephalopathy; Uncontrolled complications, including but not limited to: Persistent or activity (except the HBV and HCV) infection, symptoms of congestive heart failure and uncontrolled diabetes, uncontrolled hypertension, unstable angina, uncontrolled arrhythmias, active ILD, severe chronic GI disease accompanied by diarrhea, or compliance with requirements may limit the research, resulted in significant increase risk of AE or influence Subjects provided psychiatric/social problem status on their ability to provide written informed consent. A history of active primary immunodeficiency or human immunodeficiency virus; Active or previous records of autoimmune disease or inflammatory diseases, including inflammatory bowel disease (e.g., colitis or Crohn's disease\], diverticulitis, except \[diverticulosis\], systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), sarcoidosis syndrome or Wegener syndrome (e.g., granulomatous vasculitis, gray's disease, rheumatoid arthritis, the pituitary gland inflammation and uveitis\]).

Known to produce allergic or hypersensitive reactions to any study drug or any excipient thereof.

Significant clinical gastrointestinal bleeding or a potential risk of bleeding was identified by the investigator during the 30 days prior to study entry.

Tumors of the central nervous system, including metastatic brain tumors. Pregnant women or breast-feeding patients.

Complicated with other malignant tumors:

Malignant tumors that have been treated for therapeutic purposes, have no known active disease for 5 years prior to the first administration of the study drug, and have a low potential risk of recurrence.

Fully treated non-melanoma skin cancer or malignant freckle moles with no evidence of disease.

Fully treated carcinoma in situ without evidence of disease.

Is currently using, or has used an immunosuppressive drug within 14 days prior to the first dose of the investigational drug. This standard has the following exceptions:

intranasal, inhaled, topical or topical steroids. (e.g., intraarticular) Systemic corticosteroid therapy not exceeding 10 mg/ day of prednisone or its physiological equivalent as a prophylactic use of steroids for hypersensitivity. (e.g., CT scan pretherapy medication) Steroids as a prophylactic for allergic reactions. A live attenuated vaccine was administered within 30 days prior to the first administration of the study drug. Note: If enrolled, patients shall not receive live attenuated vaccine within 30 days of receiving study drug therapy and after the last administration of study drug.
