Lenalidomide with targeted therapy and immunotherapy for advanced liver cancer
This trial tests whether adding lenalidomide (a drug that boosts the immune system) to your current targeted therapy and immunotherapy can help advanced liver cancer that has progressed after previous treatments. You would be eligible if your cancer has already been treated with at least two prior drug combinations and initially responded before growing back.

Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–70 - NCT07617038Enrolling by invitation
MRI Scan to Predict Liver Cancer Treatment Response
This trial uses a special type of MRI scan to see if doctors can predict how well a liver cancer treatment (called TACE) will work for you. The scan may help doctors understand your treatment response better.
Montreal, QuebecAges 18–70 - NCT07610551Recruiting
Combination therapy for advanced liver cancer
This trial studies whether combining three treatments—an immunotherapy drug (Atezo), a blood-vessel-blocking drug (Bev), and a radioactive bead treatment (SIRT-Y90)—can help patients with advanced liver cancer that cannot be surgically removed. The goal is to see if using all three together works better than using fewer treatments.
Xi’an, ShanxiAges 18 years+ - NCT05185739RecruitingPhase 2
Pembrolizumab and lenvatinib before liver surgery for resectable cancer
This trial tests whether giving pembrolizumab (an immune therapy) and lenvatinib (a targeted pill) before planned liver surgery can improve outcomes for people with certain types of operable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). It’s meant for tumors that can be removed with curative intent, but still carry a risk of coming back.
BirminghamAges 18 years+ - NCT07560488RecruitingPhase 2
Immunotherapy and Chemotherapy Combination for Advanced Liver Cancer
This trial tests a combination of four treatments (two immunotherapy drugs, a blood-vessel-blocking drug, and chemotherapy delivered directly to the liver) to shrink unresectable (inoperable) advanced liver cancer and potentially make it removable by surgery. The goal is to help patients who have never had cancer treatment before.
Tianjin, Tianjin MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT07547553RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
HH-009 for Advanced Liver Cancer with FGF19 Marker
This trial tests a new drug called HH-009 for advanced or inoperable liver cancer (hepatocellular carcinoma, or HCC) that has a specific genetic marker called FGF19. The drug is designed to target this marker and may help slow or shrink the cancer in people whose disease has gotten worse despite previous treatment.
Bengbu, AnhuiAges 18–75 - NCT05871892Recruiting
PET/CT or PET/MRI scans for suspected or diagnosed liver cancer
This study looks at how well special imaging scans (PET/CT or PET/MRI) work in adults with suspected or diagnosed liver cancer. It may help doctors better see the cancer and plan next steps.

Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18 years+ - NCT06446154RecruitingPhase 2
Fruquintinib after immunotherapy for advanced liver cancer
This trial tests a new drug called fruquintinib for people with advanced liver cancer who have already tried immunotherapy. It may help shrink tumors or slow cancer growth.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for hepatocellular carcinoma (hcc)?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 478 recruiting 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 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.
