Primary liver cancer is one of the most common malignant tumors in the world, and more than 90% of primary liver cancers are pathologically characterized as hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The intermediate stage (BCLC-B) HCC is highly heterogeneous, and there is no consensus on the treatment of this stage of the tumor in Western and Eastern countries. New tools are urgently needed to guide the choice of treatment options for patients with this stage of the tumor in order to reduce the risk of postoperative recurrence and the overall survival rate.
Aged 18-75.
No previous local or systemic treatment for hepatocellular carcinoma.
Child-Pugh liver function score ≤ 7.
ECOG PS 0-1.
Pregnant and lactating women.
Tumor distribution in two liver lobes, diffuse growth, or other reasons why radical R0 resection is not possible.
Suffering from a condition that interferes with the absorption, distribution, metabolism, or clearance of the study drug (e.g., severe vomiting, chronic diarrhea, intestinal obstruction, impaired absorption, etc.).
A history of gastrointestinal bleeding within the previous 4 weeks or a definite predisposition to gastrointestinal bleeding (e.g., known locally active ulcer lesions, fecal occult blood ++ or more, or gastroscopy if persistent fecal occult blood +) that has not been targeted, or other conditions that may have caused gastrointestinal bleeding (e.g., severe fundoplication/esophageal varices), as determined by the investigator.
