Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of simple local ablation, local ablation combined with apatinib, local ablation combined with apatinib and PD-1 antibody SHR-1210 for the treatment of advanced liver cancer.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Drug: Apatinib Mesylate
Phase 2

Detailed Description

Primary liver cancer is a common malignant tumor in the world. Its pathogenesis is concealed and clinically asymptomatic. It is mostly in the middle and late stages of the disease. It is often combined with different degrees of cirrhosis. The liver function reserve is poor.About 80% of patients are in the first place. The operation has been lost at the time of diagnosis.

Primary liver cancer is not sensitive to conventional treatments such as radiotherapy and chemotherapy because of its unique tissue type. For advanced liver cancer, ablation combined with other systemic treatments is expected to alleviate the patient's condition, prolong the patient's survival time, and benefit more patients. The long-term clinical efficacy of tumor thermal ablation has been reported more, the basic conclusion is consistent, hat is, the 5-year survival rate of early stage tumors such as liver cancer less than 3cm is not inferior to surgical resection, or even better. Liver cancer is rich in blood supply and tumor blood vessels are dense. The formation and maintenance of these blood vessels requires pro-angiogenic signals, of which VEGFR is a key component. Apatinib is a small molecule tyrosine kinase inhibitor that inhibits VEGFR at very low concentrations. SHR-1210 is a humanized anti-programmed cell death receptor 1 antibody.

This study was designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of simple local ablation, local ablation combined with apatinib, local ablation combined with apatinib and PD-1 antibody SHR-1210 for the treatment of advanced liver cancer.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
No Intervention: Thermal ablation

Taking standard thermal ablation treatment. Its specific number and time interval depend on the patient's own condition and disease.

Experimental: Thermal ablation combined with apatinib

Taking standard thermal ablation treatment. Its specific number and time interval depend on the patient's own condition and disease. Oral apatinib mesylate tablets, 250 mg, orally once a day. Take about half an hour after a meal (the daily dose should be as much as possible), and take it with warm water. Apatinib was discontinued 7 days before each thermal ablation treatment, and after the thermal ablation treatment, the patient's aminotransferase returned to normal and continued to take apatinib.
