About this study
Official title: Effectiveness and Safety of Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy Combined With Iparomlimab and Tuvonralimab and Bevacizumab in Patients With Locally Advanced or Oligometastatic Hepatocellular Carcinoma: A Prospective, Single-Arm, Single-Center Study
SBRT combined with dual PD-1/CTLA-4 blockade (iparomlimab and tuvonralimab, QL1706) and bevacizumab may provide complementary local and systemic antitumor activity in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). This prospective, single-arm, single-center study evaluates the efficacy and safety of stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) to all intra- and extrahepatic lesions combined with QL1706 (7.5 mg/kg intravenously on day 1 every 3 weeks) and bevacizumab (15 mg/kg intravenously on day 1 every 3 weeks) in patients with inoperable locally advanced or oligometastatic HCC (BCLC stage B or C). All lesions receive SBRT at 8 Gy in 3-5 fractions completed within 30 days; systemic therapy starts within 1 week before or after the start of radiotherapy and continues as maintenance for up to 2 years, until progression, death, or unacceptable toxicity. The primary endpoint is objective response rate per RECIST 1.1. Secondary endpoints include complete response, disease control rate, time to response, duration of response, local control, progression-free survival, time to progression, and overall survival per RECIST 1.1 and mRECIST, safety per CTCAE v6.0, and quality of life per EORTC QLQ-C30 and QLQ-HCC18. A total of 33 patients will be enrolled at Beijing Cancer Hospital.
Read the detailed description
Background: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a leading cause of cancer death worldwide. Immune checkpoint inhibition combined with anti-angiogenic therapy is the standard first-line systemic treatment for unresectable HCC, but outcomes remain suboptimal. Radiotherapy is not only an effective local treatment but also a potent immunomodulator; stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) can induce immunogenic cell death, promote type I interferon and damage-associated molecular pattern release, and prime antitumor T-cell responses, providing a rationale for combining SBRT with dual PD-1/CTLA-4 blockade and anti-VEGF therapy. No prospective evidence currently exists for SBRT combined with dual immunotherapy plus anti-angiogenic therapy in unresectable HCC.
Objective: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of SBRT combined with iparomlimab and tuvonralimab (QL1706, a bifunctional PD-1/CTLA-4 antibody) and bevacizumab in patients with inoperable locally advanced or oligometastatic HCC.
Design: Prospective, single-arm, single-center, exploratory interventional study at Beijing Cancer Hospital. Enrollment period: 24 months; estimated 33 participants. Eligibility: adults (>=18 years) with imaging- or pathology-proven, inoperable BCLC stage B or C HCC unsuitable for surgery, ablation, or transarterial therapy, either locally advanced (portal/hepatic/inferior vena cava tumor thrombus permitted) or oligometastatic (up to 5 extrahepatic lesions); no prior systemic therapy or progression/intolerance after first-line therapy; ECOG 0-1; Child-Pugh A or B (score <=7); Child-Pugh class, laboratory thresholds, and the full inclusion and exclusion criteria are listed in the Eligibility module.
Interventions: All intra- and extrahepatic lesions receive SBRT with a prescription of 8 Gy x 3-5 fractions (fraction number determined by lesion location and proximity to organs at risk), one fraction per day or every other day on weekdays, with all treatment completed within 30 days and interfraction intervals of 24-72 hours; image-guided radiotherapy is used at every fraction. QL1706 7.5 mg/kg and bevacizumab 15 mg/kg are given intravenously on day 1 of each 21-day cycle, starting within 1 week before or after the start of SBRT; after the combined-treatment phase, both drugs continue as maintenance until 2 years of cumulative systemic treatment, disease progression, death, or unacceptable toxicity.
Outcome measures and statistical analysis: The outcome measures are listed in the Outcome Measures module; in brief, the primary endpoint is objective response rate per RECIST 1.1, with response assessed by investigators on the first imaging assessment 4-6 weeks after SBRT and every 12 weeks thereafter. Time-to-event endpoints are estimated with the Kaplan-Meier method. Efficacy is analyzed in all patients receiving at least one dose of study treatment or radiotherapy; safety (CTCAE v6.0) is analyzed in all patients receiving any study treatment. All analyses are two-sided with alpha = 0.05. Exploratory translational studies use blood (genetic sequencing, immune-related factors, plasma PD-1/PD-L1, T-cell receptor repertoire) and stool (metabolomics, metagenomics) specimens collected before the first dose, after completion of radiotherapy, and at progression.

What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 2 study testing Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy, Bevacizumab and Iparomlimab and Tuvonralimab in people with Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC), run by Peking University Cancer Hospital & Institute at 1 site in China.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 17 inclusion and 23 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 Oct 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
What does this phase mean?
Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
Contact Xuan Zheng, MD (+86 18810189122, zhengxuan54321@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Objective Response Rate per RECIST 1.1 (time frame: From the first imaging assessment performed 4-6 weeks after completion of SBRT, repeated every 12 weeks until progression, death, or completion of 2-year follow-up). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 20 Oct 2026.
