简要总结
Primary Objective: To evaluate the effect of nanocrystalline megestrol acetate versus placebo on body weight and appetite in patients with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma receiving TACE combined with targeted and immunotherapy.Secondary Objectives: To evaluate the effect of nanocrystalline megestrol acetate versus placebo on quality of life, inflammatory markers, nutritional indicators, and psychological stress in patients with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma receiving TACE combined with targeted and immunotherapy.Exploratory Objective: To explore the impact of nanocrystalline megestrol acetate versus placebo on survival benefit in patients with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma receiving TACE combined with targeted and immunotherapy.

- The incidence and severity of adverse events (AEs) assessed by CTCAE5.0(Adverse events (AEs) of each subject will be followed up for 30 days after the last dose of nanocrystalline megestrol acetate or until the initiation of new anti-tumor therapy, whichever occurs first.)
- Objective Response Rate(Baseline(day1), and after every two treatment cycles(up to 2 years).each cycle lasts 21-28 days.)
- Life quality(Baseline(day1); prior to dosing in each systemic treatment cycle(each cycle lasts 21-28 days).)
- Overall Survival(Baseline(day 1); prior to dosing in each systemic treatment cycle(up to 2 years,each cycle is 21-28 days), assessed up to 100 weeks.)
- Inflammatory markers(Baseline(day1); prior to dosing in each systemic treatment cycle(each cycle is 21-28 days).)
- Anxiety and depression(Baseline(day1); prior to dosing in each systemic treatment cycle(each cycle lasts 21-28 days).)
- Progression-Free Survival(Baseline(day1); prior to dosing in each systemic treatment cycle(each cycle lasts 21-28 days)with a maximum follow-up of 100 weeks.)
- Appetite status assessment(Baseline(day1); prior to dosing in each systemic treatment cycle(each cycle is 21-28 days).)
