Phase II of Lenvatinib Plus Toripalimab for Advanced HCC

Phase II of Lenvatinib Plus Toripalimab Advanced Hepatocellular Carcinoma: a Single-arm Prospective Trial

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of lenvatinib combined with toripalimab in patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC)

Lenvatinib was non-inferior to sorafenib in overall survival in untreated advanced hepatocellular carcinoma. No study has evaluated the efficacy and safety of lenvatinib plus toripalimab. Thus, the investigators carried out this single-arm, prospective, phase II study to find out it.

Inclusion Criteria:

• The diagnosis of HCC was based on the diagnostic criteria for HCC used by the European Association for the Study of the Liver (EASL)

• Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status of 0 to 2
• with no previous systemic treatment
• No Cirrhosis or cirrhotic status of Child-Pugh class A only
• Not amendable to surgical resection ,local ablative therapy and any other cured treatment.
