68Ga-FAPI PET/MRI scan for liver cancer diagnosis
This trial studies how well a special imaging test (68Ga-FAPI PET/MRI) can detect and evaluate hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), a type of liver cancer. It may help doctors confirm diagnosis and plan next steps by seeing how the cancer takes up the tracer.
SingaporeAges 21–99 - NCT07227012RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of a new drug for advanced liver cancer
This trial tests a new medicine, PF-08634404, alone or with other treatments for adults with advanced liver cancer that cannot be removed by surgery or has spread. It is for people who have not had prior systemic therapy and have good liver function.
Irvine, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07219459RecruitingPhase 2
New drug combo for liver cancer after PD-1/PD-L1 treatment fails
This study tests three drugs (visugromab, nivolumab, lenvatinib) compared to a placebo plus lenvatinib for people with liver cancer (HCC) that cannot be removed or has spread, and who have already been treated with a PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitor without success. The goal is to see if the combination can help shrink tumors or slow the cancer.
Irvine, CaliforniaAges 18–100 - NCT07209813RecruitingPhase 2
Immunotherapy plus TACE for liver cancer
This trial tests a new immunotherapy drug (GKL-006) combined with a standard treatment called TACE (which blocks blood flow to the tumor) for people with liver cancer that cannot be removed by surgery. The goal is to see if adding this drug helps shrink tumors more than TACE alone.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT07186621RecruitingPhase 3
Testing immunotherapy or chemoembolization after liver cancer surgery
This trial compares two treatments after liver cancer surgery to see which better prevents the cancer from coming back. You may be eligible if your surgery had a narrow margin and you have certain risk factors, like a tumor over 5 cm or high AFP levels.
BeijingAges 18–80 - NCT07178587Recruiting
New PET scan for liver and neuroendocrine tumors
This trial tests a new PET imaging method that uses two different tracers to find and stage liver cancer (HCC) or neuroendocrine tumors (GEP-NET) more accurately. It may help doctors decide on the best treatment for you.
BrestAges 18 years+ - NCT07179900RecruitingPhase 2
Radiation plus two drugs for liver cancer that can't be removed
This trial tests a combination of radiation therapy with two drugs (QL1706 and bevacizumab) for people with liver cancer that hasn't spread to other parts of the body but can't be surgically removed. The goal is to see if this approach can shrink or control the tumor.
Shijiazhuang, HebeiAges 18 years+ - NCT07174570RecruitingPhase 2
Celecoxib with immunotherapy for advanced liver cancer
This trial tests a combination of two immunotherapy drugs (durvalumab and tremelimumab) plus a pain reliever (celecoxib) for people with advanced liver cancer that cannot be removed by surgery. The goal is to see if this three-drug combination works better than standard treatments.

Immunotherapy with or without targeted radiation for advanced liver cancer
This trial tests whether adding a precise, targeted form of radiation (called SBRT) to standard immunotherapy (atezolizumab and bevacizumab) can help people with advanced liver cancer that has spread to the blood vessels or outside the liver. You may be asked to participate in one of two treatment groups to see which approach works better.

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.
