Recruiting studies
- NCT07405086RecruitingPhase 4
Morning versus afternoon immunotherapy for advanced cancer

This study looks at how the nervous system works in people with liver cancer (hepatocellular carcinoma) or liver scarring (cirrhosis) who need a liver biopsy. It aims to see if there is a link between the nervous system and liver tumors.
LyonAges 18 years+ - NCT07391839RecruitingPhase 1
MDN-001 injection for liver cancer that can't be surgically removed
This trial tests an injection called MDN-001 for people with liver cancer (hepatocellular carcinoma) that cannot be removed by surgery or other local treatments. The goal is to see if it is safe and effective for patients whose cancer has not spread outside the liver.
Hefei, AnhuiAges 18–80 - NCT05417932RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Cell therapy for hepatitis B–related liver cancer
This Phase 1/2 study tests a lab-made cell treatment (SCG101) for people with hepatitis B–related liver cancer who have already had standard treatments. It aims to shrink tumors and improve outcomes in carefully selected patients.
New York, New YorkAges 18–70 - NCT07381660RecruitingPhase 3
SBRT vs. Surgery for small liver cancer
This trial compares two treatments—radiation (SBRT) and surgery—for people with a small liver tumor (≤5 cm) that hasn't spread. The goal is to see which treatment works better.

Immunotherapy with or without radiation for liver cancer
This trial tests a combination of two immunotherapy drugs (atezolizumab and bevacizumab) with or without targeted radiation therapy for liver cancer that has invaded the major blood vessels of the liver. The goal is to see if adding radiation helps shrink tumors or slow the disease.
SeoulAges 20–79 - NCT07378709Recruiting

This study is looking for blood markers that may help doctors learn how well TACE treatment is working for liver cancer. You need to be scheduled for TACE and have a follow-up scan to participate.
BelgradeAges 18 years+ - NCT07364357RecruitingPhase 1
Study of CREPT-618 for advanced liver cancer
This phase 1 trial tests a new drug called CREPT-618 for people with advanced liver cancer that hasn't responded to standard treatments. The drug is designed to target cancer cells with specific markers (CREPT and ASGPR), so only patients whose tumors have these markers can join.
BeijingAges 18–75 - NCT07351669Recruiting
Spectral CT to check TACE response in liver cancer
This study uses a special type of CT scan (spectral CT) to see how well liver cancer has responded to a previous TACE treatment. If you've already had TACE for your liver cancer, this scan may help your doctors decide on the next steps, such as surgery or another procedure.
NanjingAges 18–75 - NCT07337421RecruitingPhase 2
Chemo infusion after liver cancer surgery to lower recurrence risk
This trial tests whether a targeted chemotherapy infusion directly into the liver's main artery (HAIC) after surgery can prevent liver cancer from coming back. It is for people with certain high-risk features, like a large tumor or cancer in blood vessels, who have had their tumor completely removed.
Yangzhou, JiangsuAges 18–75 - NCT06861114Recruiting
Urine test to detect liver cancer return after surgery
This study tests if a simple urine test can help find early signs of liver cancer coming back after surgery. Patients with early-stage liver cancer who have surgery may join to help improve follow-up care.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT07327034RecruitingPhase 2
ABSK-011 with standard care for advanced liver cancer
This trial tests a new drug, ABSK-011, combined with standard care, against a placebo with standard care for people with advanced liver cancer that has a specific marker called FGF19 overexpression. The goal is to see if ABSK-011 can help slow the disease.
Hefei, AnhuiAges 18 years+ - NCT07328009RecruitingPhase 2
Personalized liver cancer treatment trial
This trial tests new treatment plans for people with advanced liver cancer that has worsened after initial therapy. The goal is to find more effective, personalized options based on how your cancer responds.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07331883RecruitingPhase 2
Sintilimab and bevacizumab after surgery for ruptured liver cancer
This trial tests whether combining two immune-based drugs (sintilimab and a bevacizumab biosimilar) after surgery can prevent liver cancer from returning in people whose tumor had ruptured. It’s for patients who have had a complete surgical removal of a ruptured hepatocellular carcinoma and are now cancer-free on imaging.
Sanming, FujianAges 18–75 - NCT07324304RecruitingPhase 2
DNA vaccine for liver cancer after curative surgery
This trial tests a DNA-based vaccine called NWRD06 to lower the risk of liver cancer returning after a curative surgery or ablation. It is for people with a specific protein on their cancer cells and good liver function.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–65 - NCT07322848RecruitingPhase 3
Comparing two TACE methods for liver cancer patients with TIPS
This trial tests whether a newer targeted chemotherapy bead method (DEB-TACE) works better than standard chemo beads (cTACE) for people with liver cancer who already have a TIPS shunt in place. It aims to find a treatment that controls tumors while being safe for patients with this shunt.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT07324824RecruitingPhase 2
Sintilimab plus bevacizumab before surgery for liver cancer
This trial tests two drugs, sintilimab and bevacizumab, given before surgery to treat liver cancer that can be removed. It's for people with a certain stage of liver cancer who haven't had other treatments.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT06371157RecruitingPhase 3
Testing AK104 and Lenvatinib with TACE for liver cancer
This trial tests if adding a new combination of drugs (AK104 and lenvatinib) to a standard liver cancer procedure called TACE is more effective than TACE alone. It is for people whose liver cancer has not spread and cannot be removed by surgery, but who are well enough to receive these treatments.
Zhengzhou, HenanAges 18–75 - NCT06873269Recruiting
Holmium-166 radiation therapy for liver cancer
This trial tests a radiation treatment for liver cancer that cannot be removed with surgery or ablation. Tiny beads containing Holmium-166 are injected into the liver's blood supply to target the tumor directly.

Making large liver tumors removable with immunotherapy and focused radiation
This trial tests a combination of immunotherapy and high-precision radiation (SBRT) to shrink large or multiple liver tumors in people with hepatocellular carcinoma, with the goal of making them small enough for surgery. It's for people who cannot currently have their tumors removed but might become eligible after treatment.

TACE with or without a drug that blocks ABCB1 for liver cancer
This trial tests whether adding an ABCB1 inhibitor to a standard liver cancer treatment called TACE (blocking blood supply and delivering chemo directly into the tumor) works better than TACE alone. You may join if you have a liver tumor that hasn't been treated before and your liver is working well.
BaselAges 18 years+ - NCT07303712Recruiting
Liquid Biopsy for Liver Cancer After Y90 Treatment
This study uses a simple blood test (called a liquid biopsy) to learn more about your liver cancer after you receive a targeted radiation treatment called Y90 radioembolization. The goal is to see if the blood test can help doctors better understand how the cancer responds to treatment.
Palo Alto, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06876753Recruiting

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.
