HCC patients diagnosed with primary hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) by pathology (histology and/or cytology) or by imaging diagnosis (e.g., dynamic enhanced CT or dynamic enhanced MRI); 3. HCC patients who have failed standard therapy (including at least immunotherapy or targeted therapy) or are intolerant to standard therapy, and are not suitable for surgical resection or cannot be completely surgically removed; 4. The presence of at least one evaluable lesion confirmed by the investigator (according to RECIST v1.1 criteria); 5.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: 1. History of any other malignancies within 3 years (except for basal cell carcinoma of the skin, carcinoma in situ of the cervix and other malignancies that have been effectively controlled without treatment within the past 3 years); 2. Patients with clinical symptoms of central nervous system metastasis or meningeal metastasis, or other evidence that the central nervous system metastasis or meningeal metastasis has not been controlled, and the investigators judged that they were not suitable for inclusion; 3.
