Brief Summary

To observe and evaluate the efficacy and safety of selective internal radiotherapy (SIRT) based on transarterial radioembolization with yttrium (90Y) microspheres combined with immune checkpoint inhibitors and anti-angiogenic-drug sequential hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy (HAIC) for the treatment of initially unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma with transformation potential.

Conditions

Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Study Design

• Allocation Method: NA
• Intervention Model: SINGLE_GROUP
• Primary Study Purpose: TREATMENT
• Blinding Strategy: NONE

Study Groups

SIRT-Y90+HAIC+PD-1 or PD-L1 inhibitors +targeted therapy

Yttrium (90Y) -SIRT treatment: SIRT enables resin-based yttrium (90Y) microspheres. The radioactivity of yttrium (90Y) and the therapeutic dose were calculated by the body surface product method. The designated dose of yttrium (90Y) microsphere injection was infused after hepatic arterial catheterization, tumor donor artery. The treatment sessions targeted the liver lobe with a larger tumor volume.

Patients were monitored for 2 days after treatment. In cases of local tumor progression and contraindications, SIRT may be repeated. Hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy: specific drug dose, drug method according to current guidelines and drug marketing instructions. Every 3 weeks starting after 3 weeks of yttrium (90Y) -SIRT. PD-L1/PD-1 inhibitors and targeted therapy as specified in the guidelines are allowed to be administered during each treatment

Group Type: EXPERIMENTAL

Combination Product：t: SIRT-Y90 +HAIC+Atezolizumab + Bevacizumab

Intervention Type: DRUG

Single or two-staged delivery of SIRT-Y90 (4 to 6 weeks), followed by 1200mg atezolizumab + 15mg/kg bevacizumab administered by IV at every 3 weeks for 18 months.

HAIC：administration of oxaliplatin , fluorouracil, and leucovorin via the tumor feeding arteries every 3 weeks.
