Conditions

Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Brief summary

Cadonilimab is a first-in-class bispecific, humanized IgG1 antibody targeting PD-1 and CTLA-4, which has the potential to boost immune surveillance in tumors. The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluated the efficacy and safety of cadonilimab combined with TACE in patients with intermediate-stage unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma.

Interventions

DRUGCadonilimab+TACE

Cadonilimab: 15mg/kg Q3W Day1 Select the best TACE treatment strategy. Traditional TACE (cTACE) or DEB-TACE can be selected. TACE treatment can be continued as needed based on disease control. The combination of cadonilimab is given 3 to 7 days after the first TACE treatment, and the subsequent administration of cardonilizumab is given once every 3 weeks, if the time overlaps with TACE treatment, it is generally administered 3 to 7 days after TACE treatment. Treatment was discontinued until intolerable toxicity, death, withdrawal of informed consent, initiation of a new antitumor therapy, or other reason specified in the protocol, whichever occurs first. Patients in this study received cadonilimab for up to 24 months.
