Exclusion criteria

* Known fibrolamellar HCC, sarcomatoid HCC, mixed cholangiocarcinom or recurrent HCC * Any preoperative treatment for HCC including local and systemic therapy * Have received more than 1 cycle of adjuvant TACE following surgical resection * Any acute active infectious diseases, active or history of autoimmune disease, or immune deficiency * Known history of serious allergy to any monoclonal antibody or targeted anti-angiogenic drug * Subjects with inadequately controlled hypertension or history of hypertensive crisis or hypertensive encephalopathy * Active or history of autoimmune disease * Thrombosis or thromboembolic event within 6 months prior to the start of study treatment * Any persistent serious surgery-related complications; esophageal and/or gastric variceal bleeding within 6 months * Abdominal fistula, gastrointestinal perforation or intraperitoneal abscess within 6 months prior to the start of study treatment * Inability or refusal to comply with the treatment and monitoring

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Recurrence-Free Survival (RFS)Randomization up to approximately 36 monthsRFS is defined as the time from randomization to the first documented occurrence of local, regional, or metastatic HCC as determined by BIRC, or death from any cause (whichever occurs first).

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
RFS Rate at 12 and 24 Monthsup to 24 months
Overall Survival (OS)Randomization up to approximately 36 months
Adverse events (AEs)Randomization up to approximately 36 monthsThe incidence and severity of adverse events (AEs) and serious adverse events (SAEs) as assessed by CTCAE v5.0
Quality of Life (QoL) Scale ScoreBaseline up to 36 monthsChange from Baseline in European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) Quality of Life Questionnaire-Core 30 (QLQ-C30) Combined Global Health Status (GHS) / Quality of Life (QoL) Scale Score
Hepatocellular Carcinoma Module (EORTC QLQ-HCC18) Scale ScoreBaseline up to 36 monthsThe EORTC QLQ-HCC18 is an HCC-specific questionnaire, administered in addition to the EORTC QLQ-C30, with scores ranging from 0-100. Higher scores indicate more severe symptoms/problems. Change from baseline in the EORTC QLQ-HCC18 scale score will be reported
