Official title
HAIC in Combination With Atezolizumab Plus Bevacizumab as Conversion Therapy in Unresectable Hepatocellular Carcinoma: a Single-arm, Prospective Study
Overview
Patients with unresectable HCC will be enrolled in the cohort and will receive the combination therapy of HAIC and atezolizumab plus bevacizumab. The objective response rate is the primary endpoint, and the secondary endpoint includes disease control rate, conversion rate, pathologic complete response, major pathologic response, progression-free survival, recurrence-free survival, overall survival, quality of life, and safety.
Primary outcome measures
- Objective Response Rate [Time frame: 2 years]
