Recruiting studies in Texas
- NCT07689175RecruitingPhase 2
Testing a flexible dose of immunotherapy for advanced liver cancer
This study tests a new way of giving immunotherapy drugs for advanced liver cancer that cannot be removed by surgery. The goal is to find the best dose for each patient, which may help control the cancer with fewer side effects.
Dallas, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07176650RecruitingPhase 1
Testing a biosimilar ipilimumab for advanced liver cancer
This trial tests a new version of the immunotherapy drug ipilimumab (called HLX13) against the approved version (YERVOY) for people with advanced liver cancer that cannot be removed by surgery. The goal is to see if the new version works similarly and is as safe.
Houston, TexasAges 18–65 - NCT07116486RecruitingPhase 1
Using a new PET scan to guide liver cancer treatment
This trial tests a special PET scan (18F-FSPG) to help guide therapy for people with liver cancer (HCC) who are planning to receive Y90 radioembolization. The scan may help doctors better plan your treatment.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06921785RecruitingPhase 3
Combination therapy for first-line liver cancer treatment
This trial tests a new drug combination (rilvegostomig plus bevacizumab, with or without tremelimumab) as a first treatment for people with advanced liver cancer (HCC) that cannot be removed by surgery or treated with local therapies. It aims to see if these combinations help shrink tumors or slow disease progression.
Amarillo, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06726161RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Targeted radiation therapy for advanced liver cancer
This trial tests a new way to find and treat liver cancer that cannot be removed by surgery. First, a special dye (RYZ811) is used to see if your cancer cells have a marker called GPC3. If they do, you may receive a targeted radiation treatment (RYZ801) that seeks out those cells. This trial is for people whose liver cancer has grown despite receiving at least one prior therapy.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06600321RecruitingPhase 1

Dallas, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05176483RecruitingPhase 1
New drug combinations for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug called zanzalintinib, which may slow or shrink various types of advanced cancer. It is given together with other cancer treatments, and the study is looking at many different cancers including kidney, prostate, bladder, lung, liver, and more.
Austin, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05185505Enrolling by invitationPhase 4

This Phase 1 study tests whether a tumor treating fields device works better when added to standard cancer drugs. It may help people with advanced solid tumors in the chest or belly, especially when standard treatment didn’t work or can’t be tolerated.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT03894917Recruiting
Study blood and imaging features in older adults with liver cancer
This study looks at what liver cancer is like in newly diagnosed people who are older and whose cancer cannot be removed by surgery. It may help doctors better understand disease behavior and how treatments may work and affect the body.
San Antonio, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT04134559RecruitingPhase 2
Pembrolizumab for kids with liver cancer that came back
This trial studies pembrolizumab (an immune therapy) in children and young people with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) that has returned or did not respond to earlier treatment. The goal is to see whether it can shrink tumors and help control the cancer.
Houston, TexasAges birth–30 years - NCT07446257RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Combining THIO and cadonilimab for liver cancer surgery
This trial tests two drugs (THIO and cadonilimab) given before surgery to see if they help shrink liver cancer that can be removed. It is for people with early-stage liver cancer who are candidates for surgery.
Dallas, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05797805RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Tegavivint for advanced liver cancer after prior treatments
This early-phase study tests tegavivint in people with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), a type of liver cancer. It’s meant for cases where the cancer can’t be treated with curative surgery/local procedures or has progressed after standard systemic medicines.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06789848RecruitingPhase 2
Testing two immunotherapy drugs for advanced liver and bile duct cancers
This trial tests two investigational drugs, ligufalimab and cadonilimab, for people with advanced liver cancer (hepatocellular carcinoma, HCC) or bile duct cancer (biliary tract cancer, BTC) that has not responded to previous treatment with an immunotherapy drug. The goal is to see if this combination can shrink tumors or slow cancer growth.
Dallas, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07175441RecruitingPhase 2
Testing a new drug combo for advanced liver cancer
This trial tests a new drug called RBS2418 added to two immunotherapy medicines (tremelimumab and durvalumab) for people with advanced liver cancer that cannot be removed by surgery.

Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05143619Recruiting
Teaching liver cancer diagnosis to radiologists worldwide
This study looks at whether a “teaching the teachers” approach improves how radiologists understand and apply liver cancer (HCC) diagnosis guidelines. It may help by standardizing how liver imaging results are interpreted across different countries and practice settings.
Houston, TexasAges Any age - NCT06184152Recruiting
Comparing two scans to find liver cancer early
This trial compares two types of imaging scans (CEUS and AMRI) to see which one is better at finding liver cancer (HCC) in patients who have an unclear spot on their liver (an indeterminate nodule). It is for people with cirrhosis who have at least one such nodule but no confirmed liver cancer yet.

Houston, TexasAges 16 years+ - NCT05733598RecruitingPhase 2
RP2 plus standard treatment for advanced liver or bile cancers
This Phase 2 trial studies whether RP2, added to standard second-line treatment, can improve outcomes for people with advanced liver cancer or bile duct/gallbladder cancer. It may help by training the immune system to better attack the cancer after the cancer has already grown despite prior treatment.

What taking part in a hepatocellular carcinoma (hcc) 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 carcinoma (hcc) clinical trials in Texas?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 33 recruiting hepatocellular carcinoma (hcc) studies with a site in Texas, 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 carcinoma (hcc) study in Texas?
- 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 Texas to take part?
- Not necessarily. These studies have a site in Texas, 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 carcinoma (hcc) 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?
