Zusammenfassung:Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a common malignant tumor with high extent of invasiveness. Its invasion process is closely related to complex tumor microenvironment and microvascular characteristics. Recently, immune combined targeted therapy has been applied to patients, combination therapy program with better effect needs to be explored. Atezolizumab combined Bevacizumab regimen in phase III clinical trial IMbrave150 was approved by U.S. Federal Drug Administration (FDA) for HCC treatment. This program is mostly used for liver malignant tumors have failed other treatments. Patients in terminal stage, overall curative has an unsatisfactory effect, survival time of patients is limited. Therefore, seeking best plan for combined treatment to improve patient's life quality and survival rate are still one of the most important clinical difficulties. This report describes a 37-year-old male who suffered from HCC repeatedly relapsed after hepatectomy. The patient received transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE), microwave ablation (MWA), targeted therapy, and other combined treatments, all showed poor treatment effects. He received liver transplantation (LT) after receiving PD-1 blockade combined targeted therapy, eventually died due to severe immune rejection. It's first case of an allogeneic liver transplantation patient who received PD-1 blockade and Lenvaxen combined therapy. PD-1 blockade treatment and clinical observations of this case were summarized.
