Brief summary: The study is being conducted to evaluate the efficacy and safety of conversion treatment of Hepatic Arterial Infusion Chemotherapy combined with Camrelizumab and Apatinib for unresected hepatocellular carcinoma.

Detailed description: A single-arm exploratory clinical study of conversion treatment of Hepatic Arterial Infusion Chemotherapy combined with Camrelizumab and Apatinib. After screening, subjects who meet the requirements for entry and exclusion signed the informed consent, received carrelizumab combined with apatinib and HAIC for conversion therapy, and After received 2-8 cycles (1 treatment cycle every 21 days) of HAIC combined camrelizumab and apatinib treatment, assess whether the subjects can undergo surgery every 2 cycles during the period: patients who are assessed as being able to undergo radical surgical resection receive elective radical resection surgery, and PD1 antibody should be stopped before surgery For 1 month, TKI drugs will be discontinued for 2-6 weeks; subjects who are assessed as not undergoing radical surgical resection will end this treatment plan. After leaving the group, they can receive any treatment according to the doctor's instructions and continue to follow up until the disease progresses and cannot be tolerated Toxic side effects, withdrawal of informed consent.

Eligibility criteria: Inclusion Criteria:

Subjects without extrahepatic metastases, no diffuse multiple tumors throughout the liver; 6. According to the researcher's assessment, subjects with hepatocellular carcinoma who do not have the conditions for radical resection, but are expected to achieve radical resection after conversion therapy, including but not limited to one of the following situations:

1. There are less than 3 tumors and mainly concentrated on the side of the liver;
2. Imaging proved to be combined with portal vein tumor thrombus (PVTT);
3. The investigator believes that other situations where radical resection may be achieved through conversion therapy.

The researcher believes that it is not suitable for inclusion.
