13. For subjects with HBV infection, HBV DNA ≤ 2,000 IU/ml at Screening.
14. For female subjects of childbearing potential, serum pregnancy test must be negative within 7 days prior to randomization. Except for female subjects who have been recorded as surgically sterilized or who are postmenopausal, female subjects of childbearing potential or male subjects and their partners must agree to use effective contraception from the signature of the informed consent form (ICF) until at least 6 months after the last dose of study drug.

3. History of liver surgery and/or local treatment for HCC (intervention, ablation therapy, absolute alcohol injection, etc.) or radiotherapy, etc. within 4 weeks prior to first dose.
4. Active or documented gastrointestinal bleeding within 6 months (e.g. esophageal or gastric varices, ulcer bleeding).
5. Presence of ascites detected by physical examination or clinical symptoms caused by ascites during the screening period, or ascites that need for special treatment, such as repeated drainage, intraperitoneal drug infusion, etc.
6. Presence of meningeal metastasis or central nervous system (CNS) metastatic lesions.
7. Subject has clinically significant, uncontrolled cardiovascular disease.
8. History of definite interstitial lung disease or non-infectious pneumonia except that caused by local radiotherapy; history of active tuberculosis.
9. Any serious acute, chronic infections that require systemic antimicrobial, antifungal or antiviral therapy at screening, excluding viral hepatitis.
10. Malabsorption syndrome or inability to take the study drug orally for other reasons.
11. Had primary malignancies other than HCC within 5 years.
12. Subject has had major surgery within 4 weeks prior to first dose (procedures such as central venous cannulation, biopsy, and feeding tube placement are not considered as major surgery).
