description •Combination regimen provides superior efficacy than immune checkpoint inhibitor monotherapy.•As an early surrogate, DCR is significantly correlated with PFS and OS.•The correlation between PFS and OS is more significant in combination groups. Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) are increasingly used in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) trials. However, the correlations between early endpoints, such as progression free survival (PFS), objective response rate (ORR), and disease control rate (DCR), and overall survival (OS) are unclear. In this study, the correlations between OS and other early endpoints were evaluated in HCC patients who received ICI. Pubmed and Embase were searched to October 2020. Clinical studies evaluating efficacy and outcomes of HCC patients treated with ICI were included. ORR, DCR, PFS and OS were extracted from individual studies. The Spearman's rank correlation coefficient and linear regression model were used to assess the correlation. 74 studies involving 9001 HCC cases were included. For HCC patients treated with ICI, the pooled ORR and DCR were 16% (95% CI: 14–18%) and 52% (95% CI: 47–57%), and the median PFS and OS were 3.75 (95% CI: 2.88–4.90) months, and 13.20 (95% CI: 11.88–14.82) months, retrospectively. The correlation between ORR, DCR, PFS and OS were 0.35 (R2 = 0.21, p
