Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: Lenvatinib + TACE

Patients in Lenvatinib + TACE group will take oral lenvatinib within 3 days of randomization and receive TACE 1 day after oral administration of lenvatinib.

Procedure: TACE
TACE will be performed one day after oral administration of lenvatinib. TACE with either cTACE or DEB-TACE can be used, depending on the condition of each center.

Drug: Lenvatinib
Lenvatinib will be taken within 3 days of randomization (dose: 8 mg qd for patients <60kg, and 12 mg qd for patients >60kg)

Active Comparator: Lenvatinib

Lenvatinib alone

Drug: Lenvatinib
Lenvatinib will be taken within 3 days of randomization (dose: 8 mg qd for patients <60kg, and 12 mg qd for patients >60kg)

Outcome Measures

  1. Overall survival [two years]

    Defined as the time from randomization to death for any cause.

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Time to progression [two years]

    Defined as the time from randomization to disease progression.
