Cryoablation
Cryoablation is performed using the Hygea Co-ablation System (Hygea Medical Technology Co. Ltd, Beijing, China), a combined cryoablation and hyperthermic ablation device. Under CT guidance and local anesthesia with 2% lidocaine, one to five intrahepatic lesions with a maximum diameter \<5 cm are ablated per session. Each ablation consists of two 10-minute freeze cycles, with a passive thaw between cycles. Technical success is defined as ice-ball extension of at least 0.5 cm beyond the tumor margin. Cryoablation is mandatory in the first cycle and may be repeated in subsequent cycles at the discretion of the investigator, for a maximum of four sessions within 3 months.
Iparomlimab and Tuvonralimab
Iparomlimab and tuvonralimab (QL1706; Qilu Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd., Jinan, China) is a dual PD-1/CTLA-4 combination antibody. During the combination phase, QL1706 is administered by hepatic arterial infusion. The catheter tip is positioned in the tumor-feeding artery, proper hepatic artery, or left/right hepatic artery based on intra-hepatic tumor location, and correct positioning is confirmed by repeat angiography. QL1706 7.5 mg/kg diluted in 100 mL of 0.9% normal saline is then infused at a constant rate over 2 hours. Hepatic arterial infusion is given every 3 weeks for a maximum of 4 cycles within 3 months, and if combined with cryoablation, it is administered 7-14 days after ablation. During the maintenance phase, QL1706 is administered intravenously at the same dose every 3 weeks until disease progression or intolerable toxicity. Dose reduction of QL1706 is not permitted.
Dacarbazine
Dacarbazine is administered intravenously as a 2-day regimen at a total dose of 850-1000 mg/m², divided over 2 consecutive days, every 3-4 weeks. During the combination phase, dacarbazine is administered intravenously on the day immediately following hepatic arterial infusion of QL1706 (i.e., day 1 after infusion). During the maintenance phase, dacarbazine is continued intravenously at the same dose and schedule until disease progression, intolerable toxicity, or discontinuation after 2 years of maintenance in patients without disease progression.
Lenvatinib
Lenvatinib is administered orally at a starting dose of 8 mg once daily. During the combination phase, lenvatinib is started on day 3 after hepatic arterial infusion of QL1706 and catheter removal. During the maintenance phase, lenvatinib is continued orally at the same dose until disease progression or intolerable toxicity, and is continued beyond 2 years after discontinuation of immunotherapy and chemotherapy in patients without disease progression.
