About this study

his is a single-arm, phase II clinical study evaluating the efficacy and safety of low-dose bevacizumab (7.5 mg/kg, Q3W) plus adebrelimab (1200 mg, Q3W) combined with transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) followed by hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy (HAIC) with the FOLFOX regimen as first-line treatment for patients with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Eligible participants will receive TACE followed by HAIC (oxaliplatin, leucovorin, and fluorouracil) and subsequent intravenous administration of adebrelimab and low-dose bevacizumab every 3 weeks. The primary endpoint is objective response rate (ORR) assessed by investigators per RECIST v1.1. Secondary endpoints include progression-free survival (PFS), disease control rate (DCR), duration of response (DoR), overall survival (OS), and safety. A total of 38 participants will be enrolled using Simon's two-stage optimal design (alpha=0.05, power=0.8). The study is sponsored by the Third Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University. Adebrelimab is provided free of charge for two years by Shanghai Shengdi Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd.

Being tested
Transarterial Chemoembolization (TACE), Hepatic Arterial Infusion Chemotherapy (HAIC, FOLFOX), Adebrelimab, Low-dose Bevacizumab

  • AdebrelimabDrug

    Intravenous adebrelimab 1200 mg fixed dose, administered every 3 weeks (Q3W).

  • Low-dose BevacizumabDrug

    Intravenous bevacizumab 7.5 mg/kg, administered every 3 weeks (Q3W).

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
TACE-HAIC + Adebrelimab + Low-dose BevacizumabExperimentalParticipants with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) receive first-line treatment with transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) followed by hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy (HAIC) using the FOLFOX regimen (oxaliplatin 85 mg/m², leucovorin 400 mg/m², fluorouracil 400 mg/m² bolus then 2400 mg/m² continuous infusion over 24 hours), administered via hepatic artery catheter. Subsequently, participants receive intravenous adebrelimab (1200 mg fixed dose, Q3W) and low-dose bevacizumab (7.5 mg/kg, Q3W). Each treatment cycle is 21 days. Treatment continues until disease progression (RECIST v1.1), unacceptable toxicity, patient withdrawal, conversion to resectable disease, or investigator decision. Adebrelimab is provided free of charge for two years by Shanghai Shengdi Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd.

What is being measured

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

  1. Objective Response Rate (ORR)

    Percentage of participants achieving complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) as best overall response (BOR) according to RECIST v1.1 criteria, assessed by the investigator.

    Measured: Up to 36 months from the first dose of study treatment

  2. Progression-Free Survival (PFS)

    PFS is defined as the time from the first dose of study treatment to the first documented disease progression per RECIST v1.1 criteria or death from any cause, whichever occurs first, as assessed by the investigator.

    Measured: From the first dose of study treatment until disease progression or death, up to 36 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Transarterial Chemoembolization (TACE), Hepatic Arterial Infusion Chemotherapy (HAIC, FOLFOX) and Adebrelimab in people with Adebrelimab (SHR-1316) and Bevacizumab, run by Third Affiliated Hospital, Sun Yat-Sen University.

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 8 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: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Apr 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Contact Mingsheng Huang (+86-20-85253416, huangmsh@mail.sysu.edu.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Objective Response Rate (ORR) (time frame: Up to 36 months from the first dose of study treatment). 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 28 Apr 2026.
