Study of liver disease and genes in people with fatty liver
This study collects information about metabolic and unexplained (cryptogenic) liver disease and looks at “omics” tests, which are lab tests that measure patterns in blood or tissue to learn what drives the disease. It may help researchers better understand fatty liver and related serious complications, like liver scarring and liver cancer.
Roma, Rome/lazio/italyAges 18 years+ - NCT05608213RecruitingPhase 3
Lenvatinib plus radiation seeds vs lenvatinib alone for liver cancer
This Phase 3 trial compares lenvatinib plus implanted radiation seeds versus lenvatinib alone in people with liver cancer that no longer responds to TACE. It aims to improve how long patients can control the cancer inside the liver.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT05608200RecruitingPhase 3
Lenvatinib plus immunotherapy with TACE versus standard TACE
This study compares a stronger treatment plan (lenvatinib plus sintilimab plus TACE) against a standard plan (lenvatinib plus TACE) for advanced liver cancer. It aims to see which plan works better to control tumors and help patients live longer.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT05985798RecruitingPhase 3
Immunotherapy plus TACE vs. Targeted Therapy plus TACE for Advanced Liver Cancer
This trial is testing a combination of two immunotherapy drugs (sintilimab and bevacizumab) plus a procedure called TACE (chemoembolization) against a targeted therapy pill (lenvatinib) plus TACE for people with advanced liver cancer. The goal is to see which approach works better to shrink tumors and improve outcomes.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT05994859Recruiting
SIRT for potentially removable liver cancer
This trial tests a targeted radiation treatment (SIRT) for people with liver cancer that is still confined to one side of the liver and has not been treated before. The goal is to see if SIRT can shrink the tumor enough to make surgical removal possible.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT06190665Recruiting
Bead type comparison for liver cancer TACE
This trial compares two types of tiny beads used in a liver cancer treatment called TACE to see which works better. If you have liver cancer that needs TACE and your liver is still working fairly well, you may be able to join.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT06205472RecruitingPhase 2
Radiation after liver cancer surgery with narrow margins
This trial tests whether adding a type of radiation (SIB radiotherapy) after liver cancer surgery can improve outcomes for patients whose tumors were removed with very narrow clear margins (less than 1 cm). It may help reduce the chance of cancer coming back in the remaining liver.
BeijingAges 18 years+ - NCT05062837RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Surgery plus two drugs for advanced liver cancer
This trial combines surgery to remove liver tumors with two drugs, camrelizumab (an immunotherapy that helps your immune system fight cancer) and apatinib (a targeted therapy that may cut off the tumor's blood supply). It aims to see if this combination helps people with advanced liver cancer that has spread outside the liver (but not to the brain) and who have chosen not to have other standard treatments like TACE or radiation. Participating could potentially control the spreading cancer and improve outcomes.
NanningAges 18–75 - NCT05652920RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
CAR T-cell therapy for liver cancer that has GPC3
This early-phase study tests modified immune T cells (CAR T cells) to treat hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), a type of liver cancer, when the tumor shows a marker called GPC3. It may help shrink tumors or slow cancer growth, especially after other treatments have stopped working.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–70 - NCT06311929RecruitingPhase 4
