Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most common primary liver tumors. Surgical resection remains the first choice of early stage HCC because the result is superior to other treatments and not limited to liver donation. However, liver resection is criticized that tumor recurrent rate is more than 50% in 5 years although the tumors are completely resected. In our large scale study including 1639 patients with liver resection for HCC, the 1-, 3-, and 5-year disease survival were 73.7%, 58.3% and 53.3%, respectively. Currently there are no effective treatment used as adjuvant therapy to prevent HCC recurrence. Dendritic cells (DC) are the most potent professional antigen-presenting cells, and can capture tumor antigens to provoke antigen-specific cytotoxic T-cells. DC pulsed by tumor associated antigens can be used to proceed tumor-specific immunotherapy. Thereafter, DC pulsed HCC tumor-antigens may be used as an adjuvant therapy to prevent HCC recurrence.

Phase Ib: Dose exploration: To assess the safety, tolerability, and determine the recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) of BC3402 in combination with durvalumab in subjects with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) Phase II: Dose Expansion: To assess the antitumor activity of BC3402 in combination with durvalumab in subjects with advanced HCC.

To compare the impact on recurrence risk of adjuvant Sintilimab (a recombinant fully human anti-PD-1 monoclonal antibody) for patients with hepatocellular carcinoma and microvascular invasion (MVI) after hepatectomy.
Precision oncology aims to improve clinical outcome of patients by offering personalized treatment through identifying druggable genomic aberrations within their tumors. This is particularly valid when it comes to offering alternative treatment options for patients with advanced tumors that are chemo-refractory. Patient-derived organoids (PDOs) are 3 dimensional tumoroids that can be expanded ex vivo and are both pheno- and genotypically identical to patients' tumors. Observational studies have shown that PDO-based drug screens can predict treatment response with high sensitivity and specificity. Vlachogiannis G. reported a living biobank of patient-derived organoids (PDOs) from patients with advanced GI cancers enrolled in clinical trials. PDOs can recapitulate patients' clinical response to chemotherapeutic agents. In 19 tumor organoids, the group performed molecular profiling and drug screens and then compared ex vivo organoid responses to anticancer drugs. Drug response to PDO based orthotopic mouse tumor xenografts correlated to the drug response of the patient in clinical trials. Further to the study, there were other retrospective validation studies utilizing PDOs from patients enrolled in clinical trials such as the TUMOROID, CinClare to predict clinical response. Ooft studied PDOs from patients with metastatic colorectal cancers enrolled in the TUMOROID study to predict response to irinotecan-based therapies. Yao generated a organoid biobank of 80 locally advanced rectal cancers. These patients were derived from a phase III study (CinClare) that compared neoadjuvant chemo-radiation using either capecitabine or CAPIRI. Response to chemoradiation in patients matched to that of rectal cancer organoids (sensitivity 78% and specificity 91.9%). In a systematic analysis of 17 studies (9 on advanced GI and pancreatic cancers, one on renal cell cancer and others on miscellaneous cancers), the pooled sensitivity and specificity for discriminating patients with a clinical response through PDO-based drug screen was 0.81 (95%CI 0.69-0.89) and 0.74 (95%CI 0.64-0.82) respectively. Within 4-6 weeks, PDO-based drug screen creates a true personalised platform by predicting patient-specific drug response with high accuracy. Recent technical advancements in growing these PDO 'avatars' from biopsies have made it possible to test suitable anticancer drugs in patients with advanced inoperable tumors, and explore the new possibilities for treatment options that otherwise would be missed by standard conventional therapies. In 2019, our group embarked on PDO research; investigators obtained tissues from patients with advanced/ inoperable solid tumors, and performing drug screens on these PDOs ex vivo. In several patients, investigators were able to identified drugs not otherwise used through sequencing data, and observed remarkable clinical response in patients with PDO responsive tumors. Investigators illustrate with cases that underwent PDO culture and drug screens. [ See appendix ] In the literature, the clinical utility of treatment based on PDO informed drug options has however not been fully established. Investigators therefore propose a phase 2 proof-of-concept clinical trial to evaluate efficacy of NGS/ PDO guided treatment in patients with inoperable or metastatic solid tumors..
To determine accuracy of elastography and color Doppler in follow up of patients with HCC after TACE comparing with modified RECIST criteria.
N-acetylcysteine (NAC), a glutathione precursor and potent antioxidant, is known as a liver protector. As a steroid preparation, dexamethasone is known to have efficient anti-inflammation and immunosuppression effects. N-acetyl cysteine and Dexamethasone's roles in preventing post-embolization syndrome following TACE have each been researched individually in the past. Up until now, no study has been done that has compared dexamethasone and NAC in post-embolization syndrome. With this study, we aim to study the efficacy of combining dexamethasone with N-acetyl cysteine in the prevention of post-embolization syndrome within 72 hours among patients who undergo transarterial chemoembolization for HCC.
This is an multi-center, single arm, exploratory study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of anlitinib combined with TQB2450 in patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC)who failed prior immune checkpoint inhibitor therapies.
