About this trial
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) with spontaneous rupture is a potentially fatal complication and usually has poor prognosis. In most conditions, the tumors could not be radically moved. Then minimally therapy like transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) could effectively stanch the ruptured tumor and bleeding vessels. Then TACE combined the Lenvatinib and PD-1 inhibitor for this subtype HCC could effectively inhibit the tumor and improve the prognosis.

diagnosis of primary HCC, confirmed histologically or clinically according to the criteria of the American Association for the Study of Liver Diseases;
presence of hemostasis in the enhanced CT scan;
integrity of the tumor is disrupted and there is hematoma around the liver;
receipt of Lenvatinib and PD-1 inhibitor as the first-line systemic therapy;
Disqualifiers
recurrent HCC;
non-ruptured HCC;
Lenvatinib and PD-1 inhibitor treated with as second systemic therapy;
age < 18 years or > 75 years;
Trial design
Single group
Treatments tested in this trial
TACE
Procedure/SurgeryTACE procedure was a 2.8-F microcatheter was super-selectively inserted into the tumor feeding artery using the coaxial technique. Then a combination of lipiodol (5-15 ml), lobaplatin (30-50 mg), and Pirarubicin (30-50 mg) was infused into each tumor. We defined technical success as complete embolization of the tumor-feeding artery resulting in no tumor staining observed by angiogram at the end of procedure.
Lenvatinib
Drug(12 mg (body weight ≥60 kg) , 8 mg (body weight \<60 kg) orally once a day
PD-1 Inhibitors
DrugTislelizumab (200mg intravenously every 3 weeks), Sintilimab (200mg intravenously every 3 weeks), Camrelizumab (200mg intravenously every 3 weeks)
Treatment groups
Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Progression-Free-Survival (PFS)
Progression was defined as progressive disease by independent radiologic review
Secondary outcomes
Objective response rate (ORR)
ORR, as determined based on tumor response according to mRECIST, is defined as the proportion of all included patients whose best overall response including complete response or partial response.
Overall survival (OS)
OS is the length of time from the date of inclusion until death from any cause.
