  • Gender unlimited, age from 18 years to 70 years
  • The patient is diagnosed as hepatocellular carcinoma by pathological/ radiological test and he (she) is in the stage of I or II. (refer to the attached file 10). Hepatocellular carcinoma should be shown by radiological test; on dynamic CT, dynamic MRI or on angiography.
  • Child-Pugh Score should be less than 6
  • No matter how the patient has been treated before, his (her) tumor should be totally removed by curative resection (RFA or operation). (based on the agreement date for written consent)
  • Patients must have adequate cardiac function(no cardiac disease, LVEF≥40% ), adequate pulmonary function as indicated by room air oxygen saturation of \>94%, and adequate renal function(Cr≤133umol/L).
  • Patient's remaining life-time should be expected at least more than 3 months.

You may not qualify if:

  • Hepatocellular carcinoma has been transferred by pathological/ radiological test (Stage III or Stage IV, refer to the exhibit 10)
  • The carcinoma has been invaded to main portal vein or major branch hepatic vein
  • Child-Pugh score is over 6
  • Patient has serious problem with pulmonary function by sub- investigator's opinion
  • Patient who has disease history of immune deficiency
  • Diagnosed as an immune deficiency patient
  • Patient who has disease history of malignant tumor within 5 years before this clinical trial.
  • Patient who had anti-cancer medication before the clinical trial
  • Patient has serious allergic-history by sub- investigator's opinion
  • Patient has serious mental disease by sub- investigator's opinion
  • Pregnant women, nursing mother or having intention of being pregnant during the clinical test
  • Patient who participated in other clinical trial within 4 weeks before this clinical trial
  • Patient who is incongruent to this clinical trial by sub- investigator's opinion.
