Brief Summary
Objectives: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of PIK-PD-1 Cells in the treatment of advanced Hepatocellular Carcinoma. Methods: This study designs a novel therapy using PIK-PD-1 cells. 40 patients with advanced Hepatocellular Carcinoma will be enrolled. They are randomly divided into dendritic cell-precision multiple antigen T cells (DC-PMAT) group and PIK-PD-1 cells group. Both DC-PMAT treatment and PIK-PD-1 cells treatment will be performed every 3 weeks with a total of three periods. The mail clinical indicators are Progression-Free-Survival and Overall Survival.
Detailed Description
A total of 40 patients may be enrolled over a period of 1-2 years.
