Hypothesis: SBRT followed by nivolumab or nivolumab and ipilimumab will have similar toxicity to historical controls of SBRT or nivolumab monotherapy.\n\n1.2 Secondary Objectives and Hypotheses Estimate the investigator determined best overall response rate. Hypothesis: Combining radiation and nivolumab or nivolumab and ipilimumab will improve the best overall response rate compared to historical controls with SBRT or nivolumab alone.\n\nEstimate the rates of long-term adverse events (after 6 months) from the end of SBRT. Hypothesis: Long-term toxicity from SBRT with nivolumab or nivolumab and ipilimumab will be comparable to that observed with nivolumab monotherapy.\n\nSummarize the distant disease control, progression-free survival, and overall survival. Hypothesis: Disease control and survival will be comparable to (or better than) that observed with nivolumab monotherapy.\n\nSummarize the local control of the SBRT treated lesion. Hypothesis: Combining SBRT and nivolumab or nivolumab and ipilimumab will have similar (or better) local control rates as observed in SBRT only series.\n\n1.3 Exploratory Objectives Explore changes in inflammatory biomarkers (including, but not limited to CD8/Treg ratio, total CD4 counts, total lymphocyte count) in pretreatment and on-treatment serially collected peripheral blood samples. Hypothesis: Changes in inflammatory biomarkers after radiation therapy may correlate with a more favorable response to immunotherapy.\n\nExplore changes in the tumor microenvironment induced by radiation on pre and post treatment biopsies. Hypothesis: Changes in the tumor microenvironment after radiation therapy will be observed that may correlate with a more favorable response to immunotherapy.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': "Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Be willing and able to provide written informed consent for the trial.\n* Be ≥ 18 years of age on day of signing informed consent.\n* Have ECOG performance status 0-1.\n* Pretreatment CT chest /abdomen /pelvis within 28 days of protocol enrollment.\n* Pathologic diagnosis of hepatocellular carcinoma (including fibrolamellar variants and biphenotypic tumors with an HCC component).\n* Child Pugh Class A (score = 5 or 6)cirrhosis (assessed within 14 days of SBRT)\n* Deemed ineligible for curative intent therapy with surgical resection or liver transplantation.\n* Patients with diffuse/multifocal liver involvement are eligible.\n* Patients with extrahepatic disease are eligible.\n* Prior systemic therapies for HCC are allowed but not required.\n* Must have at least one intrahepatic lesion amenable to SBRT.\n* Prior transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) or radiofrequency ablation (RFA) allowed, however, patient must have separate intrahepatic lesion amenable to SBRT and biopsy.\n* Intrahepatic lesion amenable to pre and post SBRT biopsies, unless the investigator determines that the tumor biopsies would be unsafe.\n* Have measurable disease based on RECIST 1.1.\n* Demonstrate adequate organ function as defined in Table 1.
