NWRD06 DNA Plasmid for HCC After Curative Resection.

Eligible subjects will receive three injections of 4 mg NWRD06 at Weeks 0, 4, and 8. All enrolled subjects will be assessed by tumor imaging at Weeks 12, 24, 36, 48, and 72 after the first dose. These assessments will continue until the first occurrence of any of the following: disease recurrence, meeting withdrawal criteria, initiation of new antitumor therapy, or the completion of Week 72.

• No residual intrahepatic lesions, no lymph node metastasis, and no extrahepatic metastasis confirmed by imaging within 4 weeks prior to the first dose.
• For patients who underwent radical resection, the following intraoperative criteria must be met: 1) No invasion of adjacent organs, no portal lymph node or distant metastasis.

• Surgical margin negative. 8. No Vp4 macrovascular invasion, hepatic vein or inferior vena cava macrovascular invasion of any grade after radical resection; Notes: Patients with Vp1, Vp2, or Vp3 macrovascular invasion confirmed by imaging or pathology are eligible.

• ECOG Performance Status of 0 or 1 within 1 week prior to the first dose. 10. Child-Pugh score A/B (≤7) within 1 week prior to the first dose. 11. Adequate organ function within 1 week prior to the first dose: 1) Blood routine: Hemoglobin (Hb) ≥90 g/L; Platelet count (PLT) ≥75×109/L; 2) Liver: Total bilirubin (TB) ≤3× upper limit of normal (ULN); Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) ≤5×ULN; Plasma albumin ≥30g/L; 3) Coagulation: International Normalized Ratio (INR) ≤2.3. 4) Renal: Serum Creatinine (Scr) ≤1.5 × ULN, OR Creatinine Clearance ≥40 mL/min (if Scr >1.5 × ULN).

• The expected survival time is more than 6 months; 13. Patients with non-viral primary HCC meet the inclusion criteria. For patients with Hepatitis B virus-related primary HCC(HBV-HCC) or Hepatitis C virus-related primary HCC(HCV-HCC), concurrent antiviral therapy is required.

• Female subjects of childbearing potential must have a negative serum pregnancy test within 1 week prior to the first dose and must agree to use highly effective contraception from the start of the study treatment until the end of the study. Male subjects must be surgically sterile or must agree to use highly effective contraception during the same period.

• Have fully understood the study and voluntarily signed the ICF, have good communication with the investigator, and are able to complete all treatments, examinations, and visits stipulated in the study protocol.

• Received any systemic anti-tumor therapy for HCC (including chemotherapy, molecular targeted therapy, bio-immunotherapy) within 28 days prior to screening.
• Participation in another clinical trial within 28 days prior to screening or still within the observational follow-up period of another trial.
• Continuous systemic corticosteroid therapy (dose equivalent to >10 mg/day prednisone) for more than one week within 28 days prior to screening (excluding hormone replacement therapy and inhaled corticosteroids).
