Brief Summary:
This is a multicenter, prospective, observational study in which subjects will be treated with lenvatinib combined with TACE in un-resectable HCC patients who had not received systematic treatment or TACE treatment in the past.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment
Carcinoma, Hepatocellular Drug: Lenvatinib Procedure: TACE

Detailed Description:
Only 30% of HCC patients received radical resection. Most of the patients are in the advanced stage and can only receive palliative treatment such as TACE or systemic treatment. Lenvatinib is a multi-target receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI), which mainly inhibits vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF) receptor-1, 2, 3; fibroblast growth factors(FGF) receptor-1, 2, 3, 4; platelet derived growth factor receptor(PDGFR)α; RET and KIT and showed significant anti-tumor effect in REFLECT study. The purpose of this study is to explore the efficacy and safety of Lenvatinib and TACE in unresectable HCC patients.

Drug Information available for: Lenvatinib

Group/Cohort Intervention/treatment
Lenvatinib and TACE
Patients in Lenvatinib + TACE group will take oral lenvatinib within ten days after TACE.
Drug: Lenvatinib
Lenvatinib capsules will be administered orally, once daily (for patients <60kg, lenvatinib 8mg po; for patients ≥60kg, lenvatinib 12mg po)

Procedure: TACE
TACE will be performed as needed.




Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Objective response rate(ORR) [ Time Frame: up to 12 months ]
    The percentage of patients who have best overall response of complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) according to mRECIST.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Intrahepatic ORR and Extrahepatic ORR [ Time Frame: up to 12 months ]
    The percentage of patients who have best overall response of complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) according to mRECIST intrahepatic or extrahepatic, respectively.

  2. Progression-free survival (PFS) [ Time Frame: up to 12 months ]
    The time from the beginning of treatment of TACE to the time of tumor progression or death from any cause (according to mRECIST standard)

  3. Alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) response rate [ Time Frame: up to 12 months ]
    A decrease in AFP of more than 20% in AFP+ patients treated with lenvatinib is defined as an AFP response.AFP response rate defined as the percentage of AFP response patients in all AFP positive patients.

  4. Time to progression(TTP) [ Time Frame: up to 12 months ]
    The time from the beginning of treatment of TACE to the time of tumor progression. (according to mRECIST standard)

  5. Adverse events(AEs) [ Time Frame: up to 18 months ]
    AEs(adverse events) evaluated by the CTC-AE 5.0
