Sequential TACE-SBRT Combined With Targeted Immunotherapy for Patients With Intermediate to Advanced Liver Cancer

Efficacy and Safety of Sequential TACE-SBRT Combined With Targeted Immunotherapy in Patients With Intermediate to Advanced Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 17 Nov 2025

Brief summary (registry, in English)

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate whether sequential transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) followed by stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) combined with targeted immunotherapy is effective and safe for patients with intermediate to advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) who are not eligible for curative treatment such as surgery or liver transplantation. This is a single-center, single-arm, retrospective study. All participants included in the analysis will have received the combined treatment regimen. The main question the study aims to answer is: Can sequential TACE-SBRT combined with targeted immunotherapy improve the objective response rate (ORR) in patients with intermediate to advanced HCC? Interventions Participants in this study have undergone the following treatments: TACE: a minimally invasive procedure to block the blood supply to the tumor while delivering chemotherapy directly. SBRT: a highly precise form of radiation therapy targeting the liver tumor. Targeted immunotherapy: systemic treatment that stimulates the immune system to recognize and attack cancer cells. Participant Population The study includes adult patients diagnosed with intermediate to advanced HCC who were not candidates for curative resection or transplantation.
