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+ - NCT06397222RecruitingPhase 2
Combination therapy for advanced liver cancer
This trial tests a combination of three treatments: an immunotherapy drug (Sintilimab), a targeted therapy (Bevacizumab), and a type of internal radiation (SIRT) for people with intermediate or advanced liver cancer that cannot be surgically removed. The goal is to see if this combination can shrink tumors and improve outcomes.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT06487663Recruiting
TACE plus immunotherapy for untreated liver cancer
This study tests combining TACE (a procedure to block the tumor's blood supply) with immunotherapy drugs for liver cancer that has not spread outside the liver. It is for people who have not had any prior treatment for their liver cancer and are healthy enough for TACE.
TianjinAges 18–75 - NCT05844046RecruitingPhase 2
Triple drug treatment for advanced liver cancer that can’t be removed
This Phase 2 trial tests three medicines together (durvalumab, tremelimumab, and bevacizumab) to treat non-surgical (non-resectable) liver cancer. It may help shrink tumors and slow disease progression by boosting the immune system and blocking tumor blood supply.
MunichAges 18 years+ - NCT06561399Recruiting
Triple therapy followed by radiation for liver cancer
This trial tests whether adding targeted radiation therapy can help people with liver cancer that cannot be surgically removed. It is for people who have already received a combination of TACE, lenvatinib, and sintilimab and whose tumors have not grown.
Fuzhou, FujianAges 18–75 - NCT06607107RecruitingPhase 2
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.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT06707233RecruitingPhase 2
Y-90 radioembolization for large liver cancer (over 7 cm)
This trial tests a treatment called Y-90 radioembolization (SIRT) for people with liver cancer that is too large to be removed surgically. The treatment delivers tiny radioactive beads directly to the tumor through the liver's blood supply, which may shrink the tumor and improve outcomes.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT06492395RecruitingPhase 3
Three treatments for large liver cancer with portal vein spread
This trial tests adding a second liver-directed treatment (hepatic artery infusion) to the usual combination of targeted therapy (lenvatinib) and chemoembolization (DEB-TACE) for people with large liver cancer that has spread into the portal vein, to see if the triple therapy works better.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT06397235RecruitingPhase 2
Combination therapy for large liver cancer tumors
This trial tests whether a combination of two treatments—chemoembolization (DEB-TACE) plus chemotherapy given through the liver artery (RALOX-HAIC)—works better than chemoembolization alone for people with large liver cancer tumors (over 7 cm). The goal is to see if the combination shrinks tumors more effectively.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT05992220RecruitingPhase 2
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 - NCT05713994Recruiting
Liver cancer treatments together for unresectable liver tumors
This trial tests a combined treatment plan—chemo delivered to the liver, targeted therapy, anti-VEGF therapy, and immunotherapy—to control unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). It may help shrink tumors or slow progression when surgery isn’t possible.
Quanzhou, FujianAges 18 years+ - 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 - NCT07122089RecruitingPhase 2
SIRT plus immunotherapy for liver cancer with portal vein clot
This trial tests a two-step approach for liver cancer that has spread into the portal vein. First, you receive internal radiation (SIRT) to shrink the tumor, followed by immunotherapy drugs (durvalumab with or without tremelimumab) to help your immune system fight the cancer. The goal is to see if this combination is safe and effective.
GrenobleAges 18 years+ - NCT06904183RecruitingPhase 2
Study of lenvatinib, sintilimab, and DEB-TACE with or without HAIC for large liver cancer with portal vein tumor thrombus
This trial tests a combination of two drugs (lenvatinib and sintilimab) plus a liver-directed treatment (DEB-TACE) with or without another liver treatment (HAIC) for people with large liver cancer (over 7 cm) that has spread into the main blood vessel of the liver. The goal is to see if adding HAIC helps shrink the cancer more effectively.
