About this study

Official title: The Multi-center, Randomized and Controlled Phase II Trail of Apatinib Mesylate Tablets Combined With PD-1 Antibody SHR-1210 for Adjuvant Treatment of Patients With High Recurrence Risk After Radical Operation of Hepatocellular Carcinoma

The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of Apatinib Mesylate combined with PD-1 antibody SHR-1210 in HCC patients with high risk of disease recurrence contained microsatellite lesions, microvascular invasion(MVI) or secondary and above portal vein tumor thrombosis (PVTT) after radical resection. Patients will be randomized 1:1 either to the experimental arm to receive Apatinib Mesylate and PD-1 antibody SHR-1210 or to the standard therapy arm of hepatic arterial infusion(HAI) .

Read the detailed description

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a common malignancy worldwide, which is the third cause of cancer related deaths. Radical hepatic resection is one of the most potentially curative treatments for HCC. Unfortunately, the long-term survival after radical hepatic resection is unsatisfactory because of the high incidence of tumor recurrence with the recurrence rates at 2 and 5 years are approximately 50 % to 60 % and 80 %,respectively. Microsatellite lesions, microvascular invasion (MVI) , or portal vein tumor thrombosis (PVTT) are the main risk factors for poor prognosis in HCC.

HCC is a typical vascular-rich tumor, and its occurrence, development, metastasis and invasion are closely related to angiogenesis. Due to the long-term chronic inflammatory response of the liver, the establishment and development of HCC can be induced by creating an immunosuppressive microenvironment, including up-regulation of PD-1 receptors. Therefore, immunotherapy is also considered to be a potential effective method for advanced HCC treatment. And there is little convincing evidence indicating that adjuvant therapy reduces the risk of recurrence after hepatic resection. Furthermore, no standard regimen has been established.

In the present study, we assessed the efficacy and safety of Apatinib Mesylate that is Small molecule anti-angiogenic targeted drugs /PD-1 antibody SHR-1210 combination therapy for surgically resected HCCs with high incidence of tumor recurrence containing microsatellite lesions, microvascular invasion(MVI) or secondary and above portal vein tumor thrombosis (PVTT).

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Apatinib Mesylate +SHR-1210Combination product

    Apatinib mesylate tablets: 250 mg, orally once a day. Take about half an hour after a meal with warm water (the daily dose should be as much as possible.

    SHR-1210: 200mg, intravenous infusion for 30 minutes (including the time of the tube, the overall infusion time is not shorter than 20 minutes, no longer than 60 minutes), once every 2 weeks. A total of 6 months of treatment,starting 4-8 weeks after radical hepatic resection.

  • Hepatic Arterial Infusion(HAI)Procedure or surgery

    Twice standard HAI treatment, the first treatment was performed 4-8 weeks after radical hepatic resection, and the second treatment was given 4-8 weeks after the first treatment (the specific time interval depends on the recovery of liver function of the patient). The specific dosage regimen is 80-100 mg of epirubicin or 50 mg of epirubicin + oxaliplatin 50 mg per HAI treatment.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Apatinib Mesylate +SHR-1210 and Hepatic Arterial Infusion(HAI) in people with Hepatocellular Carcinoma, run by Cancer Institute and Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences at 1 site in China.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 13 inclusion and 23 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 Feb 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Hong Zhao (+86-13381106850, pumczhaohong@126.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Recurrence-free survival(RFS) (time frame: 72 month). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 15 Feb 2019.
