[Advances in targeted and immune therapies for hepatocellular carcinoma].

Targeted and immunotherapy drugs for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) have been rapidly developed. Atezolizumab in combination with bevacizumab has been recommended as the first-line standard of care for unresectable or advanced HCC in several national and international guidelines. The combination therapies with sindilizumab and bevacizumab biosimilar, apatinib and carrilizumab, dulvalizumab and tremelimumab are also recommended as first-line standard regimens for advanced HCC in the guideline of Chinese Society of Clinical Oncology. Local therapy combined with targeted drugs (such as sorafenib and lenvatinib) or immune checkpoint inhibitors can significantly improve outcomes. Therefore, some progress has also been made in the study of single-agent or combination regimens as perioperative neoadjuvant therapy.

[Hepatocellular carcinoma immune microenvironment].

The tumor immune microenvironment (TIME) plays crucial roles in the growth, progression, and therapeutic response of hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC) which is a prototypical inflammation-associated cancer. The efficacy of immunotherapy largely depends on the TIME. Targeting the immune microenvironment is an attractive strategy for the treatment of HCC. This review provides the characteristics of immune microenvironment of HCC,therapeutic approaches based on immune microenvironment,and information on the immune microenvironment underlying the response or resistance of HCC to immunotherapies.
