Atezolizumab, Bevacizumab, and Tocilizumab in Advanced Hepatocellular Carcinoma

This is a Phase 2, open-label, single-arm, multicenter study designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of atezolizumab, bevacizumab, and tocilizumab in patients with locally advanced, metastatic, and/or unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Approximately 51 patients will be enrolled at 6 study sites and will receive combination therapy consisting of atezolizumab, bevacizumab, and tocilizumab. Patients assigned to the study will receive atezolizumab 1,200 mg intravenously and bevacizumab 15 mg/kg intravenously on Day 1 of each 21-day cycle, alongside tocilizumab 4 mg/kg intravenously on Day 1 of each 42-day cycle for up to 5 doses. Treatment will continue until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, withdrawal of consent, or other protocol-defined discontinuation criteria are met. The study population includes adult patients with locally advanced, metastatic, and/or unresectable HCC who have received no prior systemic therapy for hepatocellular carcinoma. Eligible patients must have histologically, cytologically, or radiologically confirmed diagnosis, at least one measurable lesion according to RECIST version 1.1, Child-Pugh class A liver function, ECOG performance status 0 or 1, and adequate organ function. The primary objective is to assess the incidence of Grade 3 or higher immune-related adverse events (irAEs) occurring within 24 weeks after treatment initiation according to NCI CTCAE version 5.0. Secondary objectives include evaluation of objective response rate (ORR) and disease control rate (DCR) according to RECIST v1.1, progression-free survival, overall survival, and the rate of treatment discontinuation due to adverse events. Safety evaluations will include assessment of adverse events, serious adverse events, laboratory parameters, vital signs, and other clinical assessments. Exploratory objectives include evaluation of the correlation between treatment response and serum inflammatory markers (such as IL-6 and CRP) and immune cell profiles
