Expected survival time >=3 months; 8. The physical status (PS) score of ECOG was 0 ~ 1; Child-Pugh is rated A; 9. Have not received systematic anti-tumor therapy; 10. Major organ function is normal, that is, meet the following criteria: routine blood test: hemoglobin >=90g/L, neutrophil >=1.5×10^9/L, platelet count >=75×10^9/L; Biochemical test: albumin >=28g/L, total bilirubin <=3× upper limit of normal (ULN), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT)<=5×ULN, alkaline phosphatase (ALP)<=5×ULN, creatinine <=1.5×ULNInternational Standardized ratio (INR) or prothrombin time (PT) <=1.5×ULN, activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) <=1.5×ULN; 11. Have a record of hepatitis virological status, confirmed by serological testing for hepatitis B virus (HBV) and hepatitis C virus (HCV).Patients with active HBV received anti-HBV therapy for at least 14 days prior to initiation of carrellizumab and apatinib mesylate and were willing to continue anti-HBV therapy over the course of the study; 12. Women of reproductive age should have a negative serum or urine pregnancy test within 14 days prior to inclusion in the study, must be non-lactating women, and patients should consent to the use of contraceptives during medication and for 60 days after the end of medication; 13. The subjects had good compliance and cooperated with follow-up.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: 1. There are other primary malignant tumors; 2. Evidence of extrahepatic metastases confirmed by CT and/or MRI scans of the chest, abdomen and pelvis; 3. There is clinically significant ascites; 4. Have a history of hepatic encephalopathy; 5. A history of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, institutional pneumonia (such as bronchiolitis obliterans), drug-induced pneumonia, or idiopathic pneumonia, or evidence of active pneumonia on chest CT scan at screening; 6. Severe infection within 4 weeks, including but not limited to hospitalization due to infection complications, bacteremia, or severe pneumonia; 7. A history of hypertensive crisis or hypertensive major cardiovascular disease (such as New York Heart Society Class II or worse heart disease, myocardial infarction or cerebrovascular accident), unstable arrhythmia or unstable angina within 3 months prior to initiation of study treatment; 8. Inadequate control of arterial hypertension (defined as systolic blood pressure (BP) >=150mmHg and/or diastolic blood pressure >100mmHg) (based on the average of >=3 BP readings obtained from >=2 measurements) allows the above parameters to be achieved through the use of antihypertensive therapy; 9. Have had serious vascular disease within six months (e.g. aortic aneurysm requiring surgical repair or recent history of peripheral autoimmune disease or immune deficiency),Including, but not limited to, myasthenia gravis, myositis, autoimmune hepatitis, systemic lupus erythematosus, rheumatoid arthritis, inflammatory bowel disease, antilecipid antibody syndrome, Wegener granulomatosis, Sjogren's syndrome, Guillain-Barre syndrome, or arterial thrombosis in multiple sclerosis); 10. Contraindicated use of the investigational drug, any other disease, metabolic dysfunction, physical examination findings or clinical laboratory findings that may affect the interpretation of the results or may place the patient at a high risk of treatment complications; 11. systemic immunosuppressive drugs (including but not limited to glucocorticoids, cyclophosphamide, azathioprine, methotrexate, thalidomide, and anti-tumor necrosis factor-a [TNF-a] preparations) within 2 weeks, or systemic immunosuppressive drugs are expected to be required during the study treatment; 12. Evidence of bleeding tendency or severe clotting disorder; 13. Patients who are preparing for or have previously received an organ or allogeneic bone marrow transplant; 14. Use of strong CYP3A4/CYP2C19 inducers including rifampicin (and its analogues) and hypericum perforatum or strong CYP3A4/CYP2C19 inhibitors within 14 days prior to initiation of study therapy.
