Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Incidence of adverse events

    Safety will be monitored by addressing and recording all adverse events (AEs), serious adverse events (SAEs) and specific laboratory abnormalities (worst grade). Toxicities will be graded using the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI CTCAE) version 4.0.

    Up to 30 days after last treatment dose

Secondary Outcomes (7)

  • Objective response rate(ORR)

    2 years

  • Progression free survival(PFS)

    2 years

  • To the relief time (TOR)

    2 years

  • Duration of relief(DOR)

    2 years

  • Disease Control Rate (DCR)

    2 years

  • +2 more secondary outcomes

  • Expected survival ≥12 weeks
  • Non-surgical sterilization or women of childbearing age need to use a medically-accepted contraceptive (such as an intrauterine device, contraceptive or condom) during the study period and within 3 months after the end of the study treatment period.

You may not qualify if:

  • The patient has any active autoimmune disease or a history of autoimmune disease (such as the following, but not limited to: autoimmune hepatitis, interstitial pneumonia, uveitis, enteritis, hepatitis, pituitary inflammation, vasculitis, nephritis, thyroid Hyperfunction; patients with vitiligo; complete remission of asthma in childhood, can be included without any intervention after adulthood; asthma patients who require bronchodilators for medical intervention cannot be included);
  • The patient is using immunosuppressive agents or systemic hormonal therapy to achieve immunosuppressive purposes (agents amount \> 10 mg / day of prednisone or other therapeutic hormones), and continue to use within 2 weeks before enrollment;
  • Have clinical symptoms or disease that are not well controlled;
  • Significant clinically significant bleeding symptoms or a clear bleeding tendency within 3 months prior to randomization;
  • Arterial/venous thrombosis in the first 6 months of randomization
  • According to the investigator, the patient has other factors that may affect the results of the study or lead to the termination of the study, such as alcohol abuse, drug abuse, other serious diseases (including mental illness) requiring combined treatment, and serious laboratory abnormalities.#with family or social factors, it will affect the safety of patients.
  • Liver tumor burden greater than 50% of the total liver volume, or patients who have previously undergone liver transplantation;Known for a history of central nervous system metastasis or hepatic encephalopathy;Severe allergic reactions to other monoclonal antibodies;
