Nowadays, primary liver cancer, especially hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) has become the second leading cause of cancer-related death. Unfortunately, the therapeutic strategies are still limited for HCC. For HCC patients at advanced stage, up to now, sorafenib and regorafenib are applied for palliative therapy to prolong the patients' life. PD-1 blockade has became a promising immunotherapeutic strategy in many cancers. While it showed limited efficacy in liver cancer. Polyinosinic-polycytidylic acid (PolyIC) has been widely studied as a new anti-tumor drug and recent study showed that polyIC and PD-L1 mAb has a quite synergetic effect on the treatment of HCC. This study is aimed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the combination of PolyIC and PD-1 mAb in unresectable late-stage HCC patients.
