Most hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients have dismal prognoses because they are already in the advanced stage at the time of initial diagnosis and are unable to undergo upfront surgery. Recent studies of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) and antiangiogenic agents (AAAs) have shown encouraging results for unresectable HCC (uHCC). Here, we report a patient with uHCC who was treated with a combination of anlotinib and sintilimab (sintilimab 200 mg, intravenous glucose tolerance test, q21d and anlotinib 12 mg, orally, d1–14, q21d), an analog of the combination of lenvatinib and pembrolizumab with much lower cost. The patient with recurrent uHCC was downstaged to resectable disease by the combination therapy. After eight cycles of treatment with anlotinib and sintilimab, the patient underwent a second operation. The histology of the resected mass revealed a major and almost complete pathological response. However, this patient was diagnosed with type I diabetes mellitus with ketoacidosis after nearly 10 cycles of combination treatment with anlotinib and sintilimab. Active follow-ups revealed no signs of local recurrence or distant failure. In conclusion, this case report demonstrated that the combination of anlotinib and sintilimab, one of the strategies combining ICIs with AAAs, showed promising efficacy in the treatment of uHCC patients.
Cloud computing promises to increase the velocity with which applications are deployed, increase innovation, and lower costs, all while increasing business agility. Based on the introduction of cloud computing layers and architecture, this paper focuses on discussing how to use cloud computing to design, build, and deliver enterprise applications with Amazon Web Services provided by Amazon. In building, paper also gives some suggestions about security considerations that enterprises must make when adopting and using cloud computing technology. At last, with heartbeat, people can build high availability enterprise application.Keywords-cloud computing; amazon web service; elastic compute cloud; simple storage service; high availability I.
