About this trial

This is a multicenter, retrospective study planned to enroll patients with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (uHCC) who received first-line donafenib combined with an anti-PD-1/L1 monoclonal antibody and either TACE or HAIC at 8 sites between June 1, 2021 and November 30, 2024. The study consists of two cohorts: Cohort A consists of patients who received donafenib + PD-1/L1 inhibitor + TACE, and Cohort B consists of patients who received donafenib + PD-1/L1 inhibitor + HAIC, with a planned enrollment of 200 patients per cohort. Relevant data will be collected to evaluate the efficacy and safety of donafenib combined with an anti-PD-1/L1 monoclonal antibody and either TACE or HAIC in the treatment of uHCC in real-world clinical practice.
