Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Overall survival (OS)

    OS is defined as the time from randomization to died from any cause. For the subjects who failed to visit, deletion is performed on the final date of knowing the survival of the subjects, for subjects who still survive, deletion is performed on the data expiration date.

    1-2 years

Secondary Outcomes (6)

  • Progression-free survival (PFS)

    1-2 years

  • Time to progress(TTP)

    1-2 years

  • Overall response rate (ORR)

    1-2 years

  • Overall disease control rate (DCR)

    1-2 years

  • Assessment on Quality of life 1

    1-2 years

  • +1 more secondary outcomes

Other Outcomes (2)

  • Biomarker analysis of proteome level (Immunohistochemical method)

    1-2 years

  • Genome level (DNA, mRNA, miRNA) biomarker analysis

    1-2 years

Eligibility Criteria

Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Patients who meet any of the following criteria are not allowed to enter the test:
  • Aged between 18 and 75 years old, no gender restriction;
  • According to "Primary Liver Cancer Diagnosis and Treatment Standard." (2011 Edition) issued by the National Health and Family Planning Commission, advanced or metastatic hepatocellular carcinoma patients who diagnosed by pathology /cytology fail to undergo liver surgery and/or other local treatment (ablation or hepatic artery intervention), or have recurrence and progression after surgery and/or other local treatment;
  • Not previously accepted first-line system therapy (systemic chemotherapy, molecular targeting, immunotherapy and research medication, etc.) for advanced or metastatic HCC, including but not limited to systematic chemotherapy with oxaliplatin, sorafenib, PD-1/PD-L1 antibody and Icaritin, etc.;
  • The central laboratory must receive specimen of tumor tissue (wax block or white slice) at first, and detect the PD-L1of tumor tissues by immunohistochemistry, only positive expression of PD-L1 in immune cells can be enrolled;
  • According to the evaluation criteria of solid tumor reaction (RECIST 1.1), it has at least one measurable target lesion (Non-lymph node lesions with the longest diameter larger than 10mm, lymph node lesions with the short diameter larger than 15mm); the lesions previously received local treatment such as ablation or hepatic artery interventional therapy should be detected by computed tomography (CT) / magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and according to RECIST1.1, It's sure that disease progression has occurred and the longest diameter is more than 1.0cm,it can be used as a measurable target lesions;
  • Liver surgery was performed more than 3 months ago, ablation or interventional treatment of hepatic artery was performed more than 4 weeks ago, and the adverse reactions returned to normal; After surgery or other local treatment, if patients have gone beyond the norm for systemic adjuvant chemotherapy or sorafenib, it will need more than 6 months after the chemotherapy or sorafenib, and disease progression and / or metastasis have occurred;
  • The Child-Pugh score of liver function is grade A or better grade B (score≤7);
  • The ECOG score of physical condition is 0-1;
  • Expected survival time≥12 weeks;
  • weeks before the first medication of the trial, there is no use of modern Chinese medicine preparation with liver cancer indication, including Delisheng injection, Kanglaite injection/soft capsule, Aidi injection or Cotside injection, elemene injection/oral liquid, Huaier granule, cinobufotalin and GanFuLe capsule / tablet and so on.
  • The function of the main organs is basically normal and meets the following requirements:
  • â‘  Marrow: Absolute neutrophil count≥1.5Ă—109/L, platelet≥80Ă—109/L, hemoglobin≥90g/L;
  • â‘¡ Liver: Total bilirubin≤1.5 times of the upper limit of normal(ULN), Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT)≤5 Ă— ULN; albumin≥29g/L;
  • â‘¢ Kidney: Serum creatinine≤ 1.5 x ULN, or creatinine clearance rate≥ 50ml/min;
  • +4 more criteria

You may not qualify if:

  • Patients who meet any of the following criteria are not allowed to enter the test:
  • Imaging examination shows that HCC liver tumors are huge (≥60% of the liver volume), or cancer embolus of portal trunk (occupying ≥50% of the vascular diameter), or cancer embolus invading mesenteric vein or inferior vena cava;
  • Middle or higher ascites which is clinically significant, it requires therapeutic abdominal paracentesis /drainage, or the Child-Pugh score \> 2;
  • Local anticancer therapy (including surgery, ablation, hepatic arterial chemotherapy, embolization or radiotherapy) or major surgery was performed 28 days prior to randomization;
  • Hepatocholangiocarcinoma and fibrolamellar cell carcinoma; In the past or at the same time, there were other cancers whose primary site or histology are entirely different from hepatocellular carcinoma, except cervical carcinoma in situ, previously treated basal cell carcinoma and superficial bladder tumor (Ta, Tis, T1); Patients with other malignancies who have been cured for \>5 years prior to enrollment may be admitted to the group;
  • Pregnant or lactating women;
  • Patients who have high blood pressure and failed to receive good control with antihypertensive drugs (systolic blood pressure \>140mmHg, diastolic pressure \>100mmHg); Patients suffer from CTCAE classification type II or above myocardial ischemia or myocardial infarction, poorly controlled arrhythmia; and/or New York Heart Association(NYHA) grade III to IV cardiac dysfunction.
