  11. Live vaccines less than 4 weeks prior to study medication or likely during the study;
  12. Subject has a known history of psychiatric drug abuse, alcoholism, or drug abuse;
  13. The subject had received treatment with traditional Chinese medicine within 4 weeks before the first treatment;
  14. The investigator considered that the subject should be excluded from this study, for example, the investigator judged that the subject had other factors that might cause forced halfway termination of this study, for example, other serious diseases (including mental illness) required concomitant treatment, there were serious laboratory abnormalities, accompanied by family or social factors, which would affect the safety of the subject, or the collection of data and samples.

    5. Study Description

    Brief Summary
    TACE lays a theoretical foundation for synergistic enhancement in combination with PD-1/PD-L1 immunosuppressive agents by reducing tumor burden and peripheral blood treg, improving the immune status of patients, reducing immune tolerance, and enhancing anti-tumor effects. TACE then causes locally treated tumor cell death and releases tumor-specific antigens, which further induce tumor-associated antigen-specific responses due to this immunogenic cell death (ICD), thereby activating the immune system to attack tumor cells. This is a single-arm, open-label, exploratory clinical study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Envafolimab, Lenvatinib combined with TACE in the treatment of unresectable locally advanced hepatocellular carcinoma.
