Sequential FOLFOX-HAIC-TACE Plus Sintilimab-Bevacizumab Neoadjuvant Therapy Versus Direct Resection in Resectable High-Risk Recurrence Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Efficacy and Safety of Sequential FOLFOX-HAIC Followed by TACE Combined With Sintilimab Plus Bevacizumab as Neoadjuvant Therapy, Followed by Surgical Resection, Versus Direct Surgical Resection in Patients With Resectable Hepatocellular Carcinoma and High-Risk Recurrence Factors: A Single-Center, Open-Label, Two-Arm, Randomized Study

This study is designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of sintilimab-bevacizumab doublet combined with FOLFOX-HAIC and TACE as the perioperative adjuvant therapy in surgical resection to hepatocellular carcinoma with high-risk features. (1) Evaluate for some high-risk patients with resectable tumours, whether or not sintilimab-bevacizumab doublet combined with FOLFOX-HAIC and TACE reduces the risk of recurrence and improves the survival of patients. (2) Evaluate the safety of sintilimab-bevacizumab doublet combined with FOLFOX-HAIC and TACE for the neoadjuvant therapy of resectable hepatocellular carcinoma.
