Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: 1.The subjects voluntarily participate in this study, sign the informed consent form, and demonstrate good compliance.?; 2.Age >= 18 years, regardless of gender?; 3.Histologically/cytologically confirmed HCC, or meeting the clinical diagnostic criteria of the Chinese Guidelines for Primary Liver Cancer (2024 Edition), without evidence of extrahepatic metastasis?; 4.Criteria for potentially resectable HCC:?? a. ??Unsuitable for upfront surgical resection?? as assessed by the multidisciplinary team (MDT) of the research center; b. ??At least one untreated measurable lesion?? per RECIST v1.1 criteria (Note: Subjects who received prior local therapy for non-target lesions are eligible. Local treatment must be completed >= 4 weeks before baseline scans.); c. ??Tumor diameter >= 5 cm and = 3 months?; 10.Major organ functions must meet the following criteria within 7 days prior to treatment:?? ??Hemoglobin (Hb) >= 90 g/L?? ??White blood cells (WBC) >= 3.5×10^9/L?? ??Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) >= 1.5×10^9/L?? ??Platelets (PLT) >= 75×10^9/L?? ??AST and ALT = 40 mL/min; urine protein = 2+, a 24-hour urine collection must show 24-hour urine protein <1 g.?? ??Normal coagulation function, defined as International Normalized Ratio (INR) <= 1.5 and activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) <= 1.5×ULN.?? ??Normal thyroid function, defined as thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) within the normal range. If baseline TSH is outside the normal range, subjects may still be enrolled if total T3 (or free T3, FT3) and free T4 (FT4) are within normal limits.?; 11.Male subjects and female subjects of childbearing potential must use adequate contraception from the time of signing the informed consent form until 6 months after the last study treatment. Females of childbearing potential must have a negative pregnancy test within 7 days prior to the first treatment.
