• Serious hemorrhagic tendency or coagulopathy, or currently receiving thrombolytic therapy
• Active tuberculosis (TB), currently receiving anti-tuberculosis treatment or received such treatment within 1 year before the first dose
• Active or poorly clinically controlled serious infections. Severe infections within 4 weeks before the first dose, including but not limited to hospitalization caused by infection, bacteremia, or severe pneumonia complication
• Receipt of immunosuppressants within 4 weeks before the first dose, excluding local glucocorticoids administered by nasal, inhaled, or other topical routes, or systemic glucocorticoids of physiological doses (no more than 10 mg/day of prednisone or equivalents), while the temporary use of glucocorticoids for preventing allergies or treating dyspneic symptoms of such diseases as asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease is permitted
• Receipt of major surgery (craniotomy, thoracotomy, or laparotomy) within 4 weeks before the first dose or having unhealed wounds, ulcers, or fractures. Receipt of tissue biopsy or other minor surgeries within 7 days before the first dose, barring venipuncture and catheterization for intravenous infusion.
• Receipt of systemic treatment with traditional Chinese medicines with cancer indications or immunomodulators (including thymosin, interferon, and interleukin, barring local use for controlling pleural fluid or ascites) within 2 weeks before the first dose
• Known hypersensitivity to any ingredients in sintilimab, bevacizumab and lenvatinib preparations or previous severe hypersensitivity reactions to other monoclonal antibodies

Más betegség

• History of hepatic encephalopathy
• History of organ and cell transplantation
• Presence of any life-threatening bleeding events within the past 3 months, including the need for transfusion, surgery or local treatment, and continuous medication therapy
• Any arterial or venous thromboembolic events within 6 months, including myocardial infarction, unstable angina, cerebrovascular accident or transient cerebral ischemic attack, pulmonary embolism, deep vein thrombosis, or any other history of serious thromboembolism. Presence of implantable venous port or catheter-derived thrombosis, or superficial venous thrombosis, barring stable thrombosis following the conventional anticoagulation treatment. Prophylactic use of low-dose low-molecular-weight heparin (e.g., enoxaparin 40 mg/day) is permitted.
• Uncontrolled hypertension after the optimal medical treatment, history of hypertensive crisis or hypertensive encephalopathy.
• History of gastrointestinal perforation and/or fistula, history of bowel obstruction (including incomplete bowel obstruction requiring parenteral nutrition), extensive bowel resection (partial colectomy or extensive small bowel resection accompanied with chronic diarrhea), Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, or chronic diarrhea within the past 6 months

• Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infected (HIV 1/2 antibody positive) and known syphilis infection requiring treatment
• Presence of active autoimmune diseases requiring systemic treatment (e.g., use of disease-modifying drugs, corticosteroids, or immunosuppressants) within 2 years before the first dose. Use of alternative therapies (e.g., thyroxine, insulin, or physiological corticosteroids for adrenal or pituitary insufficiency) is permitted. Known history of primary immunodeficiency diseases. For patients with positive autoimmune antibodies only, they should be assessed by the investigator to determine whether they had an autoimmune disease
• History of malignancy other than HCC

Laborértékek

• Acute or chronic diseases, psychiatric disorders, or laboratory abnormalities that may lead to the following consequences: increased study participation or drug-related risks, or interference with interpreting trial results, and considered ineligible for participating in the trial by the investigator
