IIT Study of M1-c6v1 Combined With SHR-1210 and Apatinib in Patients With HCC

A Single-arm Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of Recombinant Oncolytic Virus M1 (M1-c6v1) Combined With Anti-PD-1 Antibody SHR-1210 and Apatinib for Treatment of Patients With Advanced / Metastatic Hepatocellular Carcinoma

This is a single arm and open-label phase I trial to evaluate the safety, tolerability and efficacy of the oncolytic virus M1 （M1-c6v1）(iv 1×109 CCIC50, 1 dose per day, on day 1-5 each 28 day cycle) combined with anti-PD-1 antibody SHR-1201 (iv, 200 mg, once every two weeks) and Apatinib (po. 250 mg qd ) in the patients with advanced/metastatic hepatocellular carcinoma. 10 participants will be sequentially enrolled. The treatment duration is 12 months. All patients continue combination treatment until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, death, or discontinuation for any reason.
