Clinical Trial Summary

To explore the efficacy of radiotherapy plus toripalimab Versus standard treatment of sorafenib in advanced hepatocellular carcinoma with Portal Vein/Hepatic vein Tumor Thrombosis.


Description:

This is an single-center, open, randomized study, which is going to enroll patients filtered to meet the standard of advanced hepatocellular carcinoma, in a 2: 1-proportional randomly assigned to the test group and control group. Patients in the experimental group will be given local vein tumor thrombus/hepatic vein tumor thrombus +/- intrahepatic large lesions with hypofractionated intensity-modulated radiotherapy (tumor area dose 40-60Gy/10-20f), concurrent with and followed by 240mg Q3W of toripalimab within 1 week of radiotherapy started. Patients in the control group will be treated with sorafenib (400mg, twice a day).

Liver function: ALT is within 2.5 times of the upper limit of normal. AST can be within 6 times of the upper limit of normal if ALT is within 1.5 times of the upper limit of normal and cardiac infarction is excluded. If ALT is 1.5 to 2.5 times the upper limit of normal, AST must be within 1.5 times the upper limit of normal. 11. There is no obvious abnormality in the electrocardiography, and no obvious cardiac dysfunction. 12. Renal function: CRE and BUN are within 1.5 times the upper limit of normal. 13.

Willingness to voluntarily participate in the clinical trial and sign informed consent.. Exclusion Criteria: 1. Those who are participating in other clinical trials. 2. Had prior abdominal irradiation, or had prior liver transplantation. 3. Patients with chronic, serious diseases such as cardiac, pulmonary, and renal disease. 4. Suspected or true alcohol, drug abuse history. 5. May be allergic to treatment with sorafenib or toripalimab. 6.

Severe mental or nervous system disorders that affect informed consent and/or expression or perception of adverse events. 8. Previous clinical diagnosis of hepatic encephalopathy in the past 6 months. Patients with hepatic encephalopathy which are controlled by rifaximin or lactulose are not allowed to participate in the study. 9. Moderate to severe ascitic fluid with obvious symptoms. 10.

Suffer from serious unhealed wounds, ulcers or fractures. 13. Active central nervous system metastasis or cancerous meningitis. 14. Active tuberculosis (TB), who are receiving anti-tuberculosis treatment or have received anti-tuberculosis treatment within 1 year before the first medication. 15. History of biliary fistula, gastrointestinal perforation, and intra-abdominal abscess within 4 weeks before the start of the study. 16. History of unstable angina, myocardial infarction, coronary artery bypass grafting, congestive heart failure, cerebrovascular accident (including transient ischemic attack, pulmonary embolism) within 3 months before the start of the study. 17. NCI-CTCAE v.4 grade =2 cardiac arrhythmia, atrial fibrillation, or QT interval prolongation of any NCI-CTCAE v.4 grade (male > 450ms, female > 470ms). 18. Uncontrollable hypertension treated with best antihypertensive drugs (> 150/90mmHg after rational medication). 19. History of HIV infection. 20. Females who are pregnant or breastfeeding. 21. Live vaccines were vaccinated within 30 days before the first dose of study drug. Live vaccines include but are not limited to the following: measles, mumps, rubella, varicella/shingles (chickenpox), yellow fever, rabies, BCG (BCG) and typhoid vaccines. Since seasonal influenza vaccines for injection are usually inactivated virus vaccines, their use is allowed; however, intranasal influenza vaccines (for example, FluMist) are live attenuated vaccines, so they are not allowed. 22. Have an active autoimmune disease that requires systemic treatment in the past 2 years (for example, immunomodulatory drugs, corticosteroids, or immunosuppressive drugs. Autoimmune diseases such as autoimmune hepatitis, interstitial pneumonia, uveal Inflammation, systemic lupus erythematosus, rheumatoid arthritis, inflammatory bowel disease, antiphospholipid syndrome related vascular thrombosis, Wegener's granulomatosis, Sjogren's syndrome, Guillain-Barré syndrome, multiple sclerosis, vasculitis, Glomerulonephritis, etc., hyperthyroidism or hypothyroidism, asthma that requires bronchodilator treatment, etc.). Replacement therapy (for example, thyroxine, insulin, or physiological corticosteroid replacement therapy for adrenal or pituitary insufficiency) is not considered systemic therapy and is allowed. 23. Combined with medical contraindications that cannot accept any contrast-enhanced imaging examinations (CT or MRI). 24. Severely allergic to research intervention and/or any of its excipients (=Grade 3). 25. Uncontrolled metabolic disorders or other non-malignant tumor organs or systemic diseases or cancer secondary reactions, which can lead to higher medical risks and/or uncertainty in survival evaluation. 26. Patients who have received allogeneic tissue/solid organ transplantation. 27. Patients with other acute or chronic diseases, mental illnesses, or abnormal laboratory test values that may cause the following results: increase the risk related to study participation or study drug administration, or interfere with the interpretation of the study results, and the patients shall be treated according to the judgment of the investigator classified as not eligible to participate in this study.

Intervention

Other:
Radiotherapy plus Toripalimab
Intensity modulated radiotherapy has shown important role in the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), especially for advanced disease with portal vein tumor thrombosis (PVTT), or hepatic vein tumor thrombosis. Toripalimab is a recombinant, humanized programmed death receptor-1 (PD-1) monoclonal antibody that binds to PD-1 and prevents binding of PD-1 with programmed death ligands 1 (PD-L1) and 2 (PD-L2).
Drug:
Sorafenib
Sorafenib is a multi-targeted oral drug for the treatment of cancer.Treatment of inoperable advanced renal cell carcinoma ,inoperable or distant metastatic primary hepatocellular carcinoma and so on.
