Official title
A Phase III Trial of Sintilimab Plus Lenvatinib in Hepatocellular Carcinoma With Portal Vein Tumor Thrombosis (PVTT) After Surgical Resection
Overview
To compare the impact on recurrence risk of adjuvant Sintilimab (a recombinant fully human anti-PD-1 monoclonal antibody) plus Lenvatinib for patients with hepatocellular carcinoma and portal vein tumor thrombus (PVTT ) after hepatectomy.
Interventions
- Drug Sintilimab
IV infusion of Sintilimab (200mg intravenously every 3 weeks for a total of 18 cycles or tumour recurrence) - Drug Lenvatinib
8mg orally once a day for 1 year - Procedure Transarterial Chemoembolization (TACE)
One cycle of TACE postoperatively
Primary outcome measures
- Recurrence-Free Survival (RFS) [Time frame: Randomization up to approximately 36 months]
Secondary outcome measures (5)
- RFS Rate at 12 and 24 Months [Time frame: up to 24 months]
- Overall Survival (OS) [Time frame: Randomization up to approximately 36 months]
- Adverse events (AEs) [Time frame: Randomization up to approximately 36 months]
- Quality of Life (QoL) Scale Score [Time frame: Baseline up to 36 months]
- Hepatocellular Carcinoma Module (EORTC QLQ-HCC18) Scale Score [Time frame: Baseline up to 36 months]
