Recruiting studies
- NCT06904196RecruitingPhase 2
Lenvatinib with or without internal radiation for TACE-resistant liver cancer
This trial compares two treatments for liver cancer (HCC) that has stopped responding to TACE. One group gets lenvatinib (a targeted therapy pill) plus SIRT (internal radiation beads placed in the liver), and the other gets lenvatinib alone. The goal is to see which combination works better.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT07150624RecruitingPhase 4
Polyene phosphatidylcholine for liver injury after surgery
This trial tests whether a medicine called polyene phosphatidylcholine can help protect the liver from damage after surgery for liver cancer. It is for people who are having a specific type of keyhole surgery to remove part of the liver.
Hefei, AnhuiAges 18–70 - NCT07145801RecruitingPhase 2
Y-90 treatment response for liver cancer
This trial tests how well a Y-90 radiation treatment works for liver cancer that hasn't been treated before. It uses ultrasound imaging to check the response.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07106827RecruitingPhase 1
Study of a new drug for advanced or resistant solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug, GV20-0251, for people with advanced solid tumors that have not responded to standard treatments. It aims to see if the drug is safe and helpful.
Chengdu, SichuanAges 18 years+ - NCT07099274RecruitingPhase 2
Combination treatment for advanced liver cancer
This trial tests a combination of two immunotherapy drugs, TACE (a procedure to block blood flow to tumors), and lenvatinib (a targeted therapy) for people with liver cancer that has not responded to initial treatment. It aims to see if this combination can help shrink tumors or slow cancer growth.
Tianjin, Tianjin MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07101237Recruiting
Precision diagnosis and treatment study for liver cancer
This study aims to improve how doctors diagnose and treat liver cancer by combining advanced imaging tests and genetic analysis. It may help in choosing the most effective treatment for each person.
BeijingAges 18–70 - NCT05763277Recruiting
Predicting early response to atezolizumab plus bevacizumab
This study tries to predict how well your cancer responds early after starting a treatment called atezolizumab plus bevacizumab. If you qualify, your information may help doctors choose better treatments sooner for people with advanced liver cancer.
SeoulAges 18–80 - NCT06914648Recruiting
Liver preparation before surgery study for certain liver cancers
This study tests a procedure called portal vein embolization (PVE) to help grow the healthy part of the liver before surgery. It may be an option for people with certain liver cancers who need more healthy liver tissue before their operation.
New Haven, ConnecticutAges 18 years+ - NCT07059936Recruiting
AI and scans to predict immunotherapy response in liver cancer
This study uses artificial intelligence (AI) to analyze your CT or MRI scans and help predict how well immunotherapy might work for your liver cancer. The goal is to find better ways to match you with the right treatment and improve your outcomes.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18 years+ - NCT06877637Recruiting
Tracking bile duct and liver cancer during treatment
This study tracks how bile duct and liver cancers change during treatment, to help doctors find the best therapies for patients. It is for people who are newly diagnosed or starting a new treatment.
KristianstadAges 18 years+ - NCT06819566RecruitingPhase 2
Preventing bleeding from enlarged veins in the esophagus
This study tests whether tying off high-risk veins in the esophagus before starting a common liver cancer treatment can prevent bleeding. It is for people with liver cancer that has spread but who have never had cancer treatment before.
Seoul, Song-paAges 19–80 - NCT05690048RecruitingPhase 2
Fecal transplant to help liver cancer respond to standard drugs
This trial studies whether a fecal microbiota transfer (a “gut bacteria transfer” from a donor) can help liver cancer patients overcome resistance to atezolizumab and bevacizumab. It aims to improve how well the standard medicines control the cancer.
Heidelberg, Baden-WurttembergAges 18 years+ - NCT06689670Recruiting
Liver tumor ablation with a needle-based device
This trial tests a needle-based device that uses heat or cold to destroy liver tumors. It is for people with primary or secondary liver cancer who cannot have surgery or a transplant.
Topkapı, IstanbulAges 18–100 - NCT06537908Recruiting
Check if a new drug combo works for advanced liver cancer
This trial tests a combination of immunotherapy (anti-PD-1/PD-L1) and an anti-VEGF drug for people with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), a type of liver cancer that cannot be removed by surgery or has spread. The goal is to see if these drugs can shrink tumors or slow the cancer's growth.
ShanghaiAges 18–90 - NCT06478693RecruitingPhase 1
Study of MT-303 for advanced liver cancer
This study tests a new drug called MT-303 for people with advanced liver cancer (HCC) or other cancers that produce a protein called GPC3. The drug is designed to target and attack the cancer cells. The trial is in an early phase, so it is looking at safety and how well the drug works.
Sydney, New South WalesAges 18 years+ - NCT06467799RecruitingPhase 2
New drug combo before and after surgery for high-risk liver cancer
This trial tests giving a liver-directed chemotherapy (HAIC) plus an immunotherapy (PD-1) before surgery, followed by more immunotherapy after surgery, for people with a specific type of liver cancer that has a high chance of coming back. The goal is to see if this approach can reduce the risk of recurrence.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT06294548RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Valemetostat plus atezolizumab and bevacizumab for advanced liver cancer
This trial tests a combination of three drugs—valemetostat, atezolizumab, and bevacizumab—for people with advanced liver cancer (HCC) who have not had systemic treatment before. The goal is to see if this combination can shrink tumors or slow disease progression.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 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.
Beverly Hills, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05488522RecruitingPhase 1
Radiation plus immunotherapy for liver cancer
This early-phase trial tests a treatment plan that combines focused radiation with two medicines—an immunotherapy drug and an anti-angiogenesis drug—to treat hepatocellular carcinoma (liver cancer). It may help shrink tumors or control disease when surgery or ablation can’t be used, and when systemic (whole-body) treatment is needed.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18–99 - NCT05199259Recruiting
Blood test study for people at risk for or with liver cancer
This trial tests a new blood test to help detect liver cancer (HCC) or confirm it’s not present in people with cirrhosis who are being monitored. It may help improve how doctors screen for liver cancer and decide who needs further imaging or treatment.
Escondido, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04864054RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study T-cell therapy for advanced liver cancer
This trial tests a custom immune-cell treatment made to target a marker (GPC3) found on some liver cancers. It’s for adults with advanced HCC whose cancer has worsened after standard treatment or who couldn’t tolerate it.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04539717Enrolling by invitation
Fast MRI test for liver cancer screening
This study tests a quicker MRI screening approach for people with cirrhosis to look for liver cancer early. It may help make liver cancer checkups faster and easier while still finding cancers when they are small.

Combination therapy for liver cancer beyond Milan criteria
This trial tests a combination of chemotherapy (mFOLFOX7) plus two targeted/immunotherapy drugs (camrelizumab and apatinib) for people with liver cancer that has grown beyond standard transplant criteria. It aims to shrink tumors and improve outcomes.

- How do I know if I qualify for a 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 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.
