Overview
This study is a prospective, single-arm, single-center trial evaluating the efficacy of TACE combined with multimodal ablation, Tislelizumab, and lenvatinib in the treatment of unresectable primary liver cancer.
Detailed description
This study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of multimodal ablation combined with Tislelizumab, lenvatinib, and TACE in the treatment of primary liver cancer. By comparing preoperative and postoperative immune markers, the study seeks to clarify the clinical value of multimodal ablation combined with systemic therapy and TACE in the management of primary liver cancer.
Interventions
- Device Multimodal Thermal Therapy
The high-burden tumor is identified as the target lesion for treatment. A pre-treatment biopsy of the target lesion is performed to obtain tumor tissue. Multimodal ablation therapy of the target lesion is conducted under CT guidance. The treatment procedure follows the tumor ablation protocol using the multimodal therapy radiofrequency temperature-controlled mode.
Primary outcome measures
- Objective response rate (ORR) according to RECIST 1.1 and mRECIST [Time frame: Follow-up for 12 months, with evaluations conducted at 2 weeks, 6 weeks, 3 months, 6 months, 9 months, and 12 months postoperatively.]
Secondary outcome measures (3)
- Progression-Free Survival(PFS) [Time frame: Follow-up for 12 months,with assessments conducted every 3 months.]
- Overall Survival(OS) [Time frame: Follow-up for 12 months,with assessments conducted every 3 months.]
- Safety and Tolerability [Time frame: Follow-up for 12 months, with evaluations conducted at 2 weeks, 6 weeks, 3 months, 6 months, 9 months, and 12 months postoperatively.]
Eligibility criteria
Inclusion criteria

- History of esophageal/gastric variceal bleeding within the past month.
- History of other malignancies.
- Last anti-tumor therapy (e.g., radiotherapy, systemic chemotherapy, or local treatment) within <1 month.
- Active infection; HBV co-infection (HBV DNA ≥2000 IU/mL or ≥10⁴ copies/mL unless reduced by one log after antiviral therapy); HCV co-infection requiring guideline-directed antiviral treatment; HIV infection; or biliary tract inflammation.
- History of organ transplantation or hepatic encephalopathy.
- Uncorrectable coagulation disorders.
- Refractory massive ascites, pleural effusion, or cachexia.
- Pregnancy, impaired consciousness, or inability to comply with treatment.
- High tumor burden (sum of the largest liver lesion diameter and number of liver lesions >12).
- Any other condition deemed unsuitable by investigators that may affect study participation.
