  • Performance status of Karnofsky scale 60%-100% or ECOG performance scale 0-2.
  • Life expectancy ≥ 12 weeks.
  • Hematopoietic Function: WBC ≥ 2,500/mm3; ANC ≥ 1000/mm3; Hemoglobin ≥ 8 g/dL; Platelet count ≥ 50,000/mm3; Coagulation: INR ≤ 1.3.
  • AST and ALT \< 5 times ULN; ALP \< 5 times ULN; Bilirubin ≤ 1.5 times ULN; Creatinine ≤ 1.5 times ULN and eGFR ≥ 50.
  • Thyroid Function: Total T3 or free T3, total T4 or free T4 and THS ≤ CTCAE Grade 2 abnormality.
  • Renal Function: Adequate renal function in the opinion of the Investigator with no clinically significant renal impairment or uncontrolled renal disease.
  • Cardiovascular Function: Adequate cardiovascular function in the opinion of the Investigator with no clinically significant uncontrolled cardiovascular disease.
  • Respiratory Function: Adequate respiratory function in the opinion of the Investigator with no clinically significant uncontrolled respiratory disease.
  • Immunological Function: Adequate immune system function in the opinion of the Investigator with no known immunodeficiency disease.

Exclusion

  • Target Lesion(s) must not be contiguous with, encompass or infiltrate major blood vessels.
  • Primary HCC amenable to resection, transplant or other potentially curative therapy.
  • Surgery: Subjects who have received hepatic surgery, ablation or chemoembolization within 4 weeks of PV-10 administration.
  • Radiation Therapy: Hepatic radiation within 4 weeks of PV-10 administration.
  • Chemotherapy: Chemotherapy within 4 weeks of PV-10 administration (6 weeks for nitrosoureas or mitomycin C).
  • Investigational Agents: Investigational agents within 4 weeks (or 5 half-lives) of PV-10 administration.
  • Phototoxic or Photosensitizing Agents: Concomitant agents posing a clinically significant risk of photosensitivity reaction within 5 half-lives of PV-10 administration.
  • Concurrent or Intercurrent Illness: Impaired wound healing due to diabetes; Significant concurrent or intercurrent illness, psychiatric disorders or alcohol or chemical dependence that would compromise Subject safety or compliance or interfere with interpretation of the study; Uncontrolled thyroid disease or cystic fibrosis; Presence of clinically significant acute or unstable cardiovascular, cerebrovascular (stroke), renal, gastrointestinal, pulmonary, immunological (with the exception of the presence of hepatitis B virus (HBV), viral hepatitis, or cirrhosis), endocrine, or central nervous system disorders; Current encephalopathy or current treatment for encephalopathy; Variceal bleeding requiring hospitalization or transfusion within 4 months of screening; History of human immunodeficiency virus or acquired immune deficiency syndrome; The clinical presence of ascites.
  • Pregnancy: Female subjects who are pregnant, lactating or have positive serum β HCG pregnancy test taken within 7 days of PV-10 administration; Fertile subjects who are not using effective contraception (e.g., oral contraceptives, intrauterine devices, double barrier methods such as condoms and diaphragms, abstinence or equivalent measures).
