Brief summary
This is a prospective clinical study aiming to tests the safety and efficacy of lenvatinib in combination with gefitinib in people with lenvatinib resistant hepatocellular carcinoma. This study will help find out if lenvatinib and gefitinib is a safe and useful combination for treating patients with lenvatinib resistant hepatocellular carcinoma.
Interventions
First week: Gefitinib: 125mg/day, oral; Lenvatinib: 8mg/day (weight ≤ 60Kg) or 12mg/day (weight \> 60Kg), oral. One week later: Gefitinib: 250mg/day, oral; Lenvatinib: 8mg/day (weight ≤ 60Kg) or 12mg/day (weight \> 60Kg), oral.
