Brief Summary:
This is a single institution, open-label, multi-arm, pilot study of a personalized neoantigen-based dendritic cell (DC) vaccine combined with microwave ablation in subjects with Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC). Patients with HKLC stage IIa HCC are eligible for enrollment. In this study, the investigators are looking at the safety, feasibility of the personalized neoantigen-based DC vaccine combined with microwave ablation as well as the T cell immune response to the vaccine.

Arm Intervention/treatment
Experimental: Microwave Ablation + Neoantigen Vaccines
The HCC patients will be treated firstly by Microwave Ablation, and then treated by courses of Neoantigen Vaccines.
 Biological: Neoantigen Vaccines
HCC (3cm≤D ≤5 cm, fewer than three tumors) patients were treated with Microwave Ablation and 7 courses of neoantigen-based DC vaccines.The first neoantigen-based DC vaccine injection will take place up to 30 days following the completion of Microwave Ablation. The day of the first vaccine injection will be referred to as Day 1.The schedule of vaccination is Day 1, Day 8, Day 15, Day 22, Day 50, Day78, Day106.
Other Name: Personalized Neoantigen-based Dendritic Cell Vaccine

Procedure: Microwave Ablation
ALL the HCC patients will be treated by Microwave Ablation.
Active Comparator: Microwave Ablation
The HCC patients will be treated only by Microwave Ablation.No vaccine will be used.
 Procedure: Microwave Ablation
ALL the HCC patients will be treated by Microwave Ablation.


Outcome Measures
Go to 
Top of Page Study Description Study Design Arms and Interventions Outcome Measures Eligibility Criteria Contacts and Locations More Information

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Safety of neoantigen-based DC vaccine as measured by the number of subjects experiencing each type of adverse event according to the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events v4.0. [ Time Frame: 1 years ]

Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Immunogenicity of the neoantigen-based DC vaccine as measured by the frequency of antigen -specific T cells using ELISPOT analysis and ICS analysis. [ Time Frame: 2 years ]
  2. Number of participants alive at 2 years [ Time Frame: 2 years ]
  3. Progression-free survival at 2 years [ Time Frame: 2 years ]
