This is a Phase II study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of TACE combined with sorafenib and tislelizumab in patients with advanced HCC.~30 subjects with advanced HCC (Barcelona-Clinic- Liver-Cancer [BCLC] stage C, or China liver cancer staging [CNLC] IIIa and IIIb) will be enrolled in the study.~Both sorafenib (400mg P.O. Bid) and tislelizumab (200mg I.V. q3w) will be started at 3-7 days after the first TACE. TACE will be repeated if clinically indicated based on the evaluation of follow-up laboratory and imaging examination. Sorafenib will last until disease progresses, intolerable toxicity, withdrawal of informed consent, loss of follow-up, death, or other circumstances that require termination of treatment, whichever occurs first. Sorafenib administration will be delayed in cases of grade ≥2 hand-foot syndrome, grade >3 hematologic toxicities or grade ≥3 hypertension. After recovery, sorafenib will be reintroduced at a reduced dose according the sorafenib dose delay and reduction guidelines. Treatment of tislelizumab will last up to 24 months, or until disease progresses, intolerable toxicity, withdrawal of informed consent, loss of follow-up, death, or other circumstances that require termination of treatment, whichever occurs first. Patients will be allowed to have sorafenib or tislelizumab as a sigle agent and will be still considered on study when the other drug cause intolerable toxicity.
This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) combined with sorafenib and tislelizumab in patients with advanced hepatocellullar carcinoma (HCC).
