Summary: This study was designed to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of mFOLFOX7（Oxaliplatin,Calcium Levofolinate,Fluorouracil） combined with Apatinib and Camrelizumab for Hepatocellular Carcinoma. The primary outcome measure is to evaluate the primary pathological response (MPR) rate of the therapy for Hepatocellular Carcinoma. The secondary Outcome measures include the objective response rate (ORR), the duration of response (DOR), disease control rate (DCR), progression-free survival rate (PFSR) [ Time Frame: 6- and 12-month], overall survival rate (OSR) [ Time Frame: 6- and 12-month], the median progression-free survival time (mPFS) and median overall survival time (mOS) of the therapy for Hepatocellular Carcinoma. Moreover, this study aims to assess the safety and tolerability of the Therapy for Hepatocellular Carcinoma.

Detailed description: Hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC) is a common high-grade malignant tumor in my country, with limited treatment options and poor prognosis. Early and middle stage (BCLC A or B) surgical resection is the main curative method for liver cancer, except for a few very early stages. Small liver cancer has a high short-term recurrence rate after surgery, with a median survival time of about 2 years and a 5-year survival rate of<20%. Treatment objectives for advanced liver cancer. Previously, systemic therapy and transcatheter arterial chemoembolization(TACE) were mainly used for treatment, while targeted therapy and immunotherapy in systemic therapy have made rapid progress in recent years. Trastuzumab and chemotherapy can increase the ORR of human epidermal growth factor receptor 2(HER2) positive advanced gastric cancer from 51.9% to 74.4%. Preliminary small sample studies have shown that veins the combination of mFOLFOX7 regimen with Carolizumab and Apatinib may be a potential treatment for CNLC stage III hepatocellular carcinoma.A strategy that is effective, safe, and easy to implement, with preliminary research results similar to FOLFOX-HAIC combined with targeted immunotherapy. Especially for patients with concomitant main portal vein tumor thrombus showed very good results, and the extremely low microvascular invasion(MVI) in postoperative pathology also suggests the possibility of good therapeutic value for microvascular metastasis of liver cancer. The Milan standard is an international standard used in liver transplantation, and patients who meet the standard have a lower recurrence rate and a longer lifespan.Survival period, specifically as follows: (1) The diameter of a single tumor does not exceed 5 cm; (2) The number of multiple tumors should not exceed 3 and the most Large diameter not exceeding 3cm; (3) The tumor has no invasion of large hepatic vessels or distant metastasis. We can also find that the Milan standard can significantly distinguish the treatment effect of liver cancer, and surpassing Milan's standard liver cancer has a significantly higher early recovery rate. There are also studies showing that liver cancer patients who exceed Milan's standards are receiving downgraded treatment of the overall survival rate and disease progression free survival rate after liver transplantation in patients who meet Milan's criteria are correlated with the overall survival rate after liver transplantation nearly. Therefore, in our study, neoadjuvant therapy targeting liver cancer with a high risk of recurrence has a high clinical value. The significance and expectation of camrelizumab and apatinib combined with intravenous mFOLFOX7 chemotherapy regimen are to improve the MPR rate of liver cancer treatment and reduce patient risk. The MVI rate is increased to achieve a phase reduction effect and prolong the patient's life
