Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) ranks among the most prevalent malignant tumors globally. However, current frontline treatment modalities fail to achieve satisfactory therapeutic outcomes. In recent years, T-cell receptor (TCR)-T therapy has garnered increasing attention as a promising therapeutic ap...
