Recruiting studies in California
- NCT07166406RecruitingPhase 3
Immunotherapy with or without targeted radiation for advanced liver cancer
This trial tests whether adding a precise, targeted form of radiation (called SBRT) to standard immunotherapy (atezolizumab and bevacizumab) can help people with advanced liver cancer that has spread to the blood vessels or outside the liver. You may be asked to participate in one of two treatment groups to see which approach works better.
Orange, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07197554RecruitingPhase 1
A study of an experimental drug for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug, ST-01156, designed to attack cancer cells by breaking down a protein called RBM39. It may be an option for people with advanced solid tumors that have not responded to other treatments.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 16 years+ - NCT06427941RecruitingPhase 1
Study of BGB-B2033 drug for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug, BGB-B2033, alone or with other treatments, for people with advanced liver, stomach, lung, or germ cell cancers that have not responded to standard therapy. The goal is to see if the drug is safe and works against these tumors.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05486572Recruiting
Ultrasound or MRI to help prevent liver cancer deaths
This study compares ultrasound scans versus MRI scans to see which one better helps prevent deaths from liver cancer in people with cirrhosis. You may be assigned to one of the two imaging tests and follow-up visits to track whether liver cancer develops or is caught early.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 18–75 - NCT07164313RecruitingPhase 1
ZW251 for advanced solid tumors
This trial is testing a new drug called ZW251 for people with advanced liver cancer (hepatocellular carcinoma), non-small cell lung cancer, or germ cell tumors that have spread or cannot be removed by surgery. It aims to see if the drug is safe and effective.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05791448RecruitingPhase 1
AU409 for advanced liver cancers or liver-spread tumors
This Phase 1 trial studies AU409, a new medicine, for advanced primary liver cancers or other solid tumors mainly in the liver. It aims to find a safe dose and see how well the treatment works for people whose usual options have not worked or are not available.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06811116RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
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.

What taking part in a hepatocellular cancer study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.

Common questions
- Are there hepatocellular cancer clinical trials in California?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 31 recruiting hepatocellular cancer studies with a site in California, each rewritten in plain language so you can see what it's testing and who it's for.
- How do I find out if I qualify for a hepatocellular cancer study in California?
- Each study lists its eligibility rules — age, diagnosis, prior treatments. On every trial page we explain these in plain language and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Do I have to live in California to take part?
- Not necessarily. These studies have a site in California, but eligibility is about your health, not your address — some people travel to take part, and a few studies reimburse travel. The study team can tell you what's required.
- Does it cost anything to join a hepatocellular cancer trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what's covered before you decide.
Not the right time?
New hepatocellular cancer studies open in California regularly. Set up a health profile and we’ll quietly watch for studies that fit you and email you when one opens.
Clin2 helps you find and understand clinical trials and does not provide medical advice. Study data comes from ClinicalTrials.gov. Talk with your doctor about whether a specific trial is right for you.
