Adding sapanisertib to cabozantinib for beta-catenin mutant liver cancer
This trial tests whether adding a new drug (sapanisertib) to the usual chemotherapy (cabozantinib) can help people with advanced liver cancer that has a specific genetic change (beta-catenin mutation). It is for patients who have already had at least one prior treatment and are looking for a new option.
Irvine, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06821958Recruiting
Radio wave treatment for advanced liver cancer
This trial tests a new type of treatment using low-energy radio waves (called electromagnetic fields) for people with advanced liver cancer that can't be removed by surgery. The goal is to see if adding this therapy can help your immune system fight the cancer better.
BerlinAges 18 years+ - NCT06860490RecruitingPhase 2
Liver cancer trial: HAIC plus immunotherapy and anti-angiogenesis
This trial tests a combination of liver-directed chemotherapy (HAIC), an immunotherapy drug (sintilimab), and a drug that blocks blood vessel growth (bevacizumab biosimilar) for advanced liver cancer that hasn't been treated with systemic therapy before. The goal is to see if this triple therapy can shrink or control the cancer.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06873269Recruiting
Holmium-166 radiation therapy for liver cancer
This trial tests a radiation treatment for liver cancer that cannot be removed with surgery or ablation. Tiny beads containing Holmium-166 are injected into the liver's blood supply to target the tumor directly.
BrusselsAges 18 years+ - NCT06876753Recruiting
Advanced liver cancer: TACE with immunotherapy and anti-angiogenesis
This trial is for people with advanced liver cancer (HCC) that has spread outside the liver. It tests whether combining a TACE procedure with immunotherapy and anti-angiogenesis drugs can improve outcomes. You must not have had prior systemic therapy and must have received TACE in a specific time window around starting these drugs.

- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 210 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.
