Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: 1. Patients who are willing to participate in the study can understand and sign the informed consent; 2. The tumor tissue was identified as primary hepatocellular carcinoma by immunohistochemical detection; 3. Hepatocellular carcinoma with GPC3 positive expression greater than 25% of tissue samples collected within one year were detected by immunohistochemistry; 4. Aged between 18 and 70; 5. Patients with advanced liver cancer confirmed by histopathology or cytology who are not candidates for surgery or local therapy (including ablative therapy, access, and radiotherapy) and who have developed progression or intolerance after prior systemic therapy (systemic therapy) Treatment includes but is not limited to systemic chemotherapy, molecular targeting and other therapies), and there is no effective treatment at the time of enrollment; 6.
