Reduce liver cancer return after surgery using anti–TIM-3
This trial studies whether blocking TIM-3 (an immune “brake”) can help stop hepatocellular carcinoma (liver cancer) from coming back after a curative surgery. It may help by improving your immune system’s ability to find and control remaining cancer cells.

New immune plus anti-cancer pills to prevent liver cancer returning
This Phase 3 trial studies anlotinib capsules plus penpulimab (an immune therapy) to help prevent hepatocellular carcinoma from coming back after it has been fully removed or fully destroyed. It may help high-risk patients lower the chance of recurrence and improve survival.
Bengbu, AnhuiAges 18–75 - NCT05444478Recruiting
Microwave ablation plus lenvatinib for recurrent liver cancer
This trial tests whether combining heat treatment to kill liver tumors (microwave ablation) with the medicine lenvatinib can better control recurrent hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). It may help shrink tumors or slow growth for people whose cancer has come back but who have limited tumor burden.
Changsha, HunanAges 18–75 - NCT05221398Recruiting
Immunotherapy after liver cancer surgery
This trial tests whether giving immunotherapy after surgery to remove liver cancer can help lower the risk of the cancer coming back. It may be an option for people who have certain risk factors for recurrence.
Nanning, GuangxiAges 18–75 - NCT06406634RecruitingPhase 2
Cadonilimab, Lenvatinib, and HAIC for Unresectable Liver Cancer
This trial tests a combination of three treatments for advanced liver cancer that can't be removed by surgery. It uses an immunotherapy drug (cadonilimab), a targeted therapy pill (lenvatinib), and a direct chemotherapy infusion into the liver (HAIC). The goal is to see if this combo can shrink tumors and improve outcomes.
Changsha, HunanAges 18–75 - NCT07848750Recruiting

Blood and tissue markers for liver cancer treatment response
This study looks at blood and tissue samples from people with liver cancer to find markers that can predict how well treatment works and whether the cancer might come back. It may help doctors personalize treatment and follow-up care.
TianjinAges 18 years+ - NCT06498622RecruitingPhase 2
Liver cancer relapse prevention after surgery
This trial tests a combination of two drugs (Donafenib and Envafolimab) after surgery to lower the risk of liver cancer coming back in people who have high-risk features. It may help if you qualify based on your tumor(s) and overall health.
Fuyang, AnhuiAges 18–80 - NCT07793695RecruitingPhase 2
Zinc plus immune therapy for advanced liver cancer
This study tests whether adding zinc supplements to standard targeted and immunotherapy improves outcomes for people with advanced liver cancer. Zinc may help the immune system work better against cancer cells.
Hefei, AnhuiAges 18–75 - NCT07795437Recruiting
New PET imaging tracer for liver cancer
This study tests a new imaging tracer to better see liver cancer on PET scans, which might help doctors find or monitor tumors more accurately.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06519578Recruiting
Liver Cancer Study: Comparing Two Chemotherapy Drugs via Artery Infusion
This study compares two chemotherapy drugs (raltitrexed and 5-fluorouracil) given directly into the liver's main artery to treat liver cancer. It aims to see which drug works better and is safer for people with hepatocellular carcinoma.
ShanghaiAges 18–75 - NCT06581315Recruiting
Donafenib after surgery for high-risk liver cancer
This trial tests a drug called Donafenib (a targeted therapy) taken after surgery to see if it can prevent liver cancer from coming back in people at high risk of recurrence.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT05072041Recruiting
Degradable chemo bead treatment for liver cancer
This trial studies a new type of “degradable” chemo bead delivered through a catheter to treat hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). It aims to check safety and whether the treatment works when surgery or transplant is not an option.
Seoul, SeoulAges 19–79 - NCT06652243RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Cell therapy for advanced liver cancer with GPC3 protein
This trial tests a new cell therapy called SN301A for people with advanced liver cancer that has a specific protein (GPC3) on the tumor cells. The goal is to see if this treatment can help when other treatments have stopped working.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–70 - NCT06609850Recruiting
Comparing TACE plus lenvatinib with or without ablation for recurrent liver cancer
This trial compares two treatments for people whose liver cancer has come back (recurrent intermediate-stage hepatocellular carcinoma). One group gets TACE plus lenvatinib (a targeted therapy), the other gets TACE plus lenvatinib plus ablation (a procedure that destroys tumors with heat or cold). The goal is to see which combination works better.
Beijing, None SelectedAges 18–75 - NCT06609876Recruiting
Donafenib after ablation for recurrent liver cancer
This trial tests whether taking the drug donafenib after a procedure called ablation (which destroys liver tumors) can help keep your liver cancer from returning. It is for people whose liver cancer has come back within the past year and who have small, treatable tumors.
Beijing, None SelectedAges 18–75 - NCT06689540RecruitingPhase 1
MTS105 for advanced liver cancer with GPC3
This trial tests a new treatment called MTS105 for people with advanced liver cancer (HCC) that has not responded to standard therapies. It targets a protein called GPC3 found on some liver cancer cells, aiming to stop the cancer from growing.
BeijingAges 18 years+ - NCT06653062Recruiting
Blood test to watch for liver cancer return
This trial studies a new blood test that looks for DNA from cancer cells' mitochondria to see if it can catch liver cancer coming back earlier. The goal is to help doctors find recurrence faster and improve follow-up care.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18 years+ - NCT04803994RecruitingPhase 3
Atezolizumab plus bevacizumab versus TACE for liver cancer
This trial studies whether a combination of immune therapy (atezolizumab) and a blood-vessel-targeting drug (bevacizumab) works better than a standard procedure called TACE for people with intermediate-stage liver cancer (HCC). It may help shrink tumors and help patients live longer with fewer complications.

Chengdu, SichuanAges 18–80 - NCT05920863RecruitingPhase 2
Lenvatinib, immunotherapy, plus liver artery treatment before surgery
This Phase 2 trial tests whether giving lenvatinib and immunotherapy along with TACE (a liver artery treatment) before surgery can lower the risk of hepatocellular carcinoma coming back after surgery. It targets people with certain higher-risk early-stage liver tumors (CNLC IB/IIA).

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for hepatocellular carcinoma recurrent?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 170 recruiting hepatocellular carcinoma recurrent 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 recurrent 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 recurrent 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.
