Inclusion criteria

  • {"criterion_text":"- Histological diagnosis of HCC\n- Life expectancy of at least 12 weeks\n- Disease which is not amenable to curative surgical or ablation treatment but eligible for locoregional treatment including portal vein invasion Vp1-3. Patients who are candidates for liver transplantation list are eligible at the discretion of the local investigator.\n- Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 or 1\n- Preserved liver function, as defined by a Child-Pugh score A and B7"}

Exclusion criteria

  • {"criterion_text":"- Diffuse HCC or presence of vascular invasion in the portal vein main stem (Vp4) or extrahepatic spread (including extrahepatic lymph node affection or metastasis) or more than 7 lesions or at least one lesion ≥ 10 cm\n- Major gastrointestinal bleeding within 4 weeks prior to inclusion\n- Known fibrolamellar HCC, sarcomatoid HCC, or mixed cholangiocarcinoma and HCC\n- Decompensated liver function as defined by any of the following: Clinically meaningful ascites, hepatic encephalopathy or history of hepatic encephalopathy, Child Pugh ≥8 points. The presence of clinically meaningful ascites is defined as any ascites requiring non-pharmacologic intervention (eg, paracentesis) to maintain symptomatic control, within 6 months prior to the first scheduled dose. Subjects on stable doses of diuretics for ascites for ≥2 months are eligible.\n- Uncontrolled pleural effusion or pericardial effusion\n- Co-infection of HBV and HCV. Patients with a history of HCV infection but who are negative for HCV RNA by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) will be considered non-infected with HCV.\n- Prior systemic therapy for HCC (including previous CPI or VEGFi treatment)\n- Prior treatment with TACE or SIRT if active tumor recurrence is located in previously treated hepatic segment or recurrence within ≤ 6 months after prior TACE or SIRT\n- Ineligibility for locoregional treatment"}
