Treatments tested in this trial
Epalrestat
DrugFor the first 6 patients in the safety lead-in period, the starting dose of epalrestat was 50 mg, three times per day. If dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) occurred in the first 6 patients, the dose for the second round of 6 patients in the safety lead-in period would be adjusted to 50 mg, twice per day. If DLT occurred in the second round of 6 patients, the dose for the third round of 6 patients in the safety lead-in period would be adjusted to 50 mg, once per day.
Donafenib + Tislelizumab
Drugdonafenib 0.2g BID, tislelizumab 200mg/21days
HAIC
Procedure/SurgeryInclude FOLFOX and RALOX.
Treatment groups
Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
12-month Event-free survival (EFS) Rate
The proportion of patients who have remained event-free from the start of treatment until the 12-month time point.(Predefined events include: progression of disease, death for any reason, terminate the treatment due to intolerable AEs.)
Secondary outcomes
Event-free survival (EFS)
Defined as the time from treatment to the first occurrence of a predefined event (progression of disease, death for any reason, terminate the treatment due to intolerable AEs).
Overall survival (OS)
The OS is defined as the time from the enrollment to death due to any cause.
Progression free survival(PFS) (Overall)
The PFS is defined as the time from the enrollment to the first documented progressive disease (according to mRECIST) or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first.
Progression free survival(PFS) of intra-hepatic lesions
The PFS is defined as the time from the enrollment to the first documented progressive disease of intra-hepatic lesions or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first.
