5. Study Description

Brief Summary
Compared with systemic therapy alone, conversion therapy is promising to improve the prognosis of patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Triple therapy (lenvatinib combined with transcatheter arterial chemoembolization and camrelizumab) may have significant efficacy in conversion therapy in patients with advanced HCC, but its safety and efficacy are unknown. We designed a randomized, open-label, parallel-controlled trial to investigate the safety and efficacy of lenvatinib combined with transcatheter arterial chemoembolization and camrelizumab versus lenvatinib alone in conversion resection for advanced HCC. Totally 168 patients with BCLC C stage HCC will be rigorously screened and included, and the primary endpoints of the study are 2-year overall survival and conversion resection rate. This study will serve as a reference for new treatment strategies for advanced HCC.
