Inclusion Criteria: 1. Patient is willing, able and mentally competent to provide written informed consent prior to any testing undertaken for this study protocol, including screening tests and evaluations that are not considered to be part of the patient's routine care. 2. Male and female patients, age 21 to 90 at the time of signature of the informed consent form. 3. Patient is able to comply with scheduled visits, assessments and other study procedures. 4. Patient diagnosed with HCC or its histological variants who has undergone a resection within 4-12 weeks prior to Day 1 of Cycle 1. * Multimodality treatment is not permitted, for example resection and ablation * Combination treatment is not permitted. 5. Patient has clinically AND histologically proven HCC after liver resection as described below: * Patients must have documented histological HCC confirmation of negative surgical margins (R0) which is documented in a pathology report (patients with microscopically positive \[R1\] or grossly positive \[R2\] resection margins or unknown margins will be excluded from the study). * Patients must have disease-free status documented within 4 weeks prior to Day 1 of Cycle 1 by a complete physical examination and radiographic images, with no subsequent evidence of residual or recurrent disease prior to Day 1 of Cycle 1. A complete set of baseline (post-resection) radiographic images and accompanying report must be available prior to Day 1 of Cycle 1. 6. Patient has an absence of major macrovascular (gross vascular) invasion of the portal vein (Vp3 or Vp4) or major macrovascular invasion in the inferior vena cava (Vv3). 7. Patient has an absence of extrahepatic spread as confirmed by CT or MRI scan of the chest, abdomen, pelvis, and head prior to and following resection . If head scan was not performed prior to resection, this must be performed after resection. 8. Patient has a full recovery from surgical resection within 4 weeks prior to Day 1 of Cycle 1. 9.

If macrovascular invasion of Vp1 or Vp2 is detected on either the pre-operative CT/MRI scan or the pathology report, this should be a high-risk feature 10.

However, patient who has received previous HCC resection more than 5 years ago is deemed to have a de-novo liver tumour and therefore can be included. * Prior use of herbal therapies or traditional Chinese medicines with anti-cancer activity included in the label is allowed, but such therapies must be discontinued at least 7 days prior to Day 1 of Cycle 1 and are prohibited during the study. * Portal vein embolization used to increase the functional liver remnant prior to surgery is permitted. 21.

Benefits and risks should be assessed and caution exercised for use of direct oral anticoagulants. The investigator should consider switching to other approved anticoagulants due to the risk of upper GI bleeding in patients with HCC. 32. Patient has received a core biopsy or other minor surgical procedure, excluding placement of a vascular access device, within 3 days prior to Day 1 of Cycle 1 33.
