Cadonilimab, Lenvatinib, and HAIC for Unresectable Liver Cancer
This trial tests a combination of three treatments for advanced liver cancer that can't be removed by surgery. It uses an immunotherapy drug (cadonilimab), a targeted therapy pill (lenvatinib), and a direct chemotherapy infusion into the liver (HAIC). The goal is to see if this combo can shrink tumors and improve outcomes.
Changsha, HunanAges 18–75 - NCT07832006RecruitingPhase 2
Combination treatment for advanced liver cancer
This trial tests a combination treatment for advanced liver cancer that cannot be removed with surgery. It combines a procedure (irreversible electroporation) that uses electrical pulses to destroy cancer cells, with targeted therapy (lenvatinib) and immunotherapy (sintilimab) to help your immune system fight the cancer.
Beijing, No. 1 Shuaifuyuan, Dongcheng District, Beijing, ChinaAges 18–75 - NCT06470256RecruitingPhase 1
Surgery plus targeted therapy and immunotherapy for advanced liver cancer
This trial tests if removing the main liver tumor with surgery, followed by targeted therapy and immunotherapy, can help people with advanced liver cancer that has spread a little. It is for those who have not had prior treatment and whose liver is still working well.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18–75 - NCT07793695RecruitingPhase 2
Zinc plus immune therapy for advanced liver cancer
This study tests whether adding zinc supplements to standard targeted and immunotherapy improves outcomes for people with advanced liver cancer. Zinc may help the immune system work better against cancer cells.
Hefei, AnhuiAges 18–75 - NCT06550921Recruiting
Ablation plus lenvatinib and immunotherapy for advanced liver cancer
This trial tests whether adding a targeted procedure (ablation) to burn away cancer spots, when combined with lenvatinib and an immunotherapy drug (PD-1 inhibitor), can help control liver cancer that has spread to a few places. It's for people whose liver tumors are already responding to treatment.
Beijing, None SelectedAges 18–75 - NCT06624098Recruiting
Early TIPS for Advanced Liver Cancer with Vein Blockage
This study tests whether placing a small tube (TIPS) early in people with advanced liver cancer and a vein blockage helps their other treatments work better. It is for patients who are already taking lenvatinib and immunotherapy.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (hcc)?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 209 recruiting advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (hcc) 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 hepatocellular carcinoma (hcc) 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 hepatocellular carcinoma (hcc) 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.
