HAIC plus Camrelizumab and Rivoceranib for advanced mixed liver-bile duct cancer
This trial tests a combination of three treatments for a rare form of liver cancer that is both hepatocellular and cholangiocarcinoma: HAIC (chemotherapy given directly into the liver artery), Camrelizumab (an immunotherapy that helps your immune system attack cancer cells), and Rivoceranib (a targeted therapy that blocks blood vessel growth to tumors). It may be an option if you haven't had prior systemic therapy for this cancer and your liver function is stable.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06859684RecruitingPhase 2
Triple therapy for advanced bile duct cancer of the liver
This trial tests a combination of three treatments for people with advanced bile duct cancer that cannot be removed by surgery or has spread. The treatments include a chemotherapy infusion directly into the liver artery (HAIC), an immunotherapy drug (durvalumab), and a targeted therapy pill (lenvatinib). It aims to see if this triple therapy can shrink or control the cancer better than standard treatments.
Chengdu, SichuanAges 18–75 - NCT05010681RecruitingPhase 2
Lenvatinib plus immunotherapy after prior liver cancer treatment
This Phase 2 trial tests lenvatinib combined with the immunotherapy drug sintilimab in people with advanced liver cancer who got worse after prior PD-1/PD-L1 treatment. It aims to slow cancer growth and improve outcomes after immune therapy hasn’t worked.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for advanced cholangiocarcinoma?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 57 recruiting advanced cholangiocarcinoma studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a advanced cholangiocarcinoma trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a advanced cholangiocarcinoma trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
