Eligibility Criteria

        Phase 2 HCC Subjects:

        Inclusion Criteria:

          1. Advanced histologically or cytologically proven HCC (except with prior liver
             transplantation).

          2. Treatment with at least 2 prior systemic therapy regimens.

          3. Child-Pugh grade A. Child-Pugh status should be determined based on clinical findings
             and laboratory data during the screening period (Appendix C).

          4. Measurable disease using RECIST 1.1 criteria (Appendix A). At least 1 measurable
             lesion must be present. Subjects who have received local-regional therapies are
             eligible, provided that they have either a target lesion which has not been treated
             with local therapy and/or the target lesion(s) within the field of the local regional
             therapy has shown an increase of ≥ 20% in size. Local-regional therapy must be
             completed at least 4 weeks prior to the baseline CT scan.

          5. ECOG performance status of 0 - 1.

          6. Expected survival of at least 3 months.

          7. Age ≥ 18 years.

          8. Fully recovered from any prior surgery and no major surgery within 4 weeks of
             initiating treatment. Surgery or procedure for placement of vascular access devices is
             exempt from this period.

          9. Subjects must agree to use at least one form of highly effective contraception or
             agree to refrain from intercourse for the duration of the study. Contraceptive use
             must be continued until at least 30 days after the last administration of ADI-PEG 20
             and at least 90 days after the last administration of FOLFOX. For female subjects, a
             serum human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) pregnancy test must be negative before entry
             into the study. If HCG pregnancy test is positive, further evaluation to rule out
             pregnancy must be performed according to GCP before this patient is claimed eligible.

         10. Informed consent must be obtained prior to study initiation.

         11. No concurrent investigational studies are allowed.

         12. Total bilirubin < 1.5 x upper limit of normal range.

         13. Serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) ≤ 5 x upper
             limit of normal range.

         14. Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) > 1500/μL.

         15. Platelets > 75,000/μL.

         16. Serum uric acid ≤ 8 mg/dL (with or without medication control).

         17. Serum creatinine ≤ 1.5 x the upper limit of normal range, or, if serum creatinine >1.5
             x the upper limit of normal range, then the creatinine clearance must be ≥ 60
             mL/min/1.73 m2 (calculated using the Jelliffe equation: calculated creatinine
             clearance = 98 - 0.8 [age (yrs.) - 20] /serum creatinine (x 0.9 if female).

         18. Brain metastases are allowed if well controlled and without seizures.

         19. Serum albumin level ≥ 2.8 g/dL.

         20. Prothrombin time (PT)-international normalized ratio (INR): PT <6 seconds above
             control or INR <1.7. Subjects on Coumadin anti-coagulants are to receive only 1 point
             for their INR status.

         21. Subjects with active hepatitis B or C on anti-viremic compounds may remain on such
             treatment, except for interferon.

        criteria:

          1. Serious infection requiring treatment with systemically administered antibiotics at
             the time of study entrance, or an infection requiring systemic antibiotic therapy
             within 7 days prior to the first dose of study treatment.

             or IV), cardiac arrhythmia, or psychiatric illness.

          5. Subjects who have had any anticancer treatment prior to entering the study and have
             not recovered to baseline (except alopecia) or ≤ Grade 1 AEs, or deemed irreversible
             from the effects of prior cancer therapy. AEs > Grade 1 that are not considered a
             safety risk by the Sponsor and investigator may be allowed upon agreement with both.
