About this study

Official title: A Real-world Study on the Addition of Lenalidomide to Reverse Resistance After First-line Treatment Lenvatinib Combined With PD-1 Therapy in Advanced Hepatocellular Carcinoma

This study is a real-world, single-arm, observational study primarily collecting data on patients with hepatocellular carcinoma who experienced disease progression after receiving lenvatinib in combination with PD-1 inhibitors as part of routine clinical practice, and evaluating the efficacy of adding lenalidomide to their treatment regimen.

Read the detailed description

This study is a real-world, single-arm, observational study primarily collecting data on patients with hepatocellular carcinoma who experienced disease progression after receiving lenvatinib in combination with PD-1 inhibitors as part of routine clinical practice, and evaluating the efficacy of adding lenalidomide to their treatment regimen.

The treatment drugs used in this study are: Lenvatinib mesylate capsules (imported or domestically produced), immunotherapy: PD-1 inhibitors (approved for marketing in China and abroad), and Lenalidomide capsules.

The study population was divided into three groups: 1. Patients with advanced, unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma treated with lenvatinib in combination with a PD-1 inhibitor, who showed imaging evidence of disease progression (defined as an increase in the maximum diameter of the primary tumor by more than 20% or the emergence of new lesions) and were planned to receive additional treatment with lenalidomide; 2. Patients currently receiving lenvatinib plus PD-1 inhibitor plus lenalidomide therapy due to disease progression; 3. Patients who have previously received lenvatinib plus PD-1 inhibitor plus lenalidomide therapy; Participants in categories 1 and 2 will sign an informed consent form and be enrolled in this study for symptomatic treatment. Category 3 study participants, who have previously received this treatment regimen, cannot obtain informed consent. Therefore, this study has applied for informed consent waiver for Category 3 study participants (this option is not available in the reporting system).

According to standard clinical treatment principles, collect hematological examination data from patients one week and one month after receiving combination therapy with lenvatinib + PD-1 inhibitor + lenalidomide.Collect hematological and imaging examination data two months after combination therapy, and evaluate the imaging data at the two-month mark to determine whether the tumor has progressed.Each observation cycle lasts two months.

Enrollment standard:

1.Age ≥ 18 years old 2.Patients with hepatocellular carcinoma who previously received lenvatinib and PD-1 inhibitors and whose tumors progressed on imaging (enhanced MRI, enhanced CT, or PET-CT) were treated with lenalidomide.

3.Expected survival period exceeding 3 months 4.Patients with a history of other malignant tumors who have been disease-free for more than 2 years after initial treatment (such as non-melanoma skin cancer or cervical carcinoma in situ) 5.Participants of childbearing age agreed to use contraception during the study period Exclusion standard:

  1. Fibrous plate layer or sarcomatous HCC or mixed type HCC-ICC
  2. Currently participating in and receiving other experimental treatments, or participating in an immune checkpoint inhibitor study and receiving study treatment.
  3. Previously underwent solid organ transplantation, diagnosed with immunodeficiency
  4. Bleeding from esophageal or gastric varices within 3 months prior to enrollment
  5. Hepatic encephalopathy in the past 6 months, or obvious ascites at the time of enrollment.
  6. Active infection requiring systemic treatment
  7. CTCAE grading Platelet count < 50 × 10⁹/L or neutrophil count < 1 × 10⁹/L
  8. Pregnant or breastfeeding women
  9. Patients with myocardial ischemia or myocardial infarction classified as grade II or higher according to the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE), uncontrolled arrhythmia
  10. Patients who have previously used pomalidomide or thalidomide
  11. Patients who have previously received CTLA-4 in combination with PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors

What participants receive

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

  • lenalidomideDrug

    Also called lenalidomide capsules

    For patients with hepatocellular carcinoma who have experienced disease progression after receiving standard clinical treatment with lenvatinib in combination with PD-1 inhibitors, the addition of lenalidomide capsules to the three-drug combination therapy was followed by a 2-month follow-up liver imaging examination to observe changes in the target lesion and whether new lesions had developed in other areas.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Treatment groupExperimentalIn clinical practice, for patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) who have received targeted therapy combined with immune checkpoint inhibitors as first-line treatment and subsequently experienced disease progression, lenalidomide capsules are incorporated into the regimen (administered orally on days 1-21, followed by a 7-day treatment-free interval, repeating every 28 days per cycle).
Receives: Drug: lenalidomide

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. 1 year PFS

    The time from enrollment in the clinical study until the first evidence of disease progression or death.Every two month, up to 1 year

    Measured: Following the administration of lenalidomide combination therapy, imaging examinations of lesion sites should be performed every two months to assess tumor status.

  2. OS

    From the start of treatment until death from any cause

    Measured: For one year or longer, until death

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing lenalidomide in people with HCC - Hepatocellular Carcinoma, run by Beijing Tsinghua Chang Gung Hospital 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 5 inclusion and 12 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 Sep 2025. 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.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

1 year PFS (time frame: Following the administration of lenalidomide combination therapy, imaging examinations of lesion sites should be performed every two months to assess tumor status.). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 19 Sep 2025.
