Cabozantinib for liver cancer that returns after liver transplant
This trial studies cabozantinib, a cancer medicine, for liver cancer that has come back after a liver transplant. It’s for people whose cancer can’t be cured with more surgery or local procedures, to see if the treatment can help control the disease.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT04430452RecruitingPhase 2
Durvalumab with or without tremelimumab after liver radiation
This study tests whether the immunotherapy drugs durvalumab (with or without tremelimumab) can help control hepatocellular carcinoma (liver cancer) after you receive palliative, targeted radiation. It especially focuses on people whose cancer continued to grow after, or without, certain prior immune therapies.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04499833Recruiting
Test an AI score to guide liver transplant decisions
This study looks at a prediction tool that estimates outcomes for people with liver cancer and cirrhosis, to help decide whether a liver transplant is a good option. It may help doctors choose the right timing and patients who could benefit most from transplantation.
LisbonAges 18–70 - 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.
GrazAges 18 years+ - NCT04823403RecruitingPhase 1
Targeted liver delivery of immunotherapy for advanced liver cancer
This early-phase study tests how well giving ipilimumab directly into the liver (via an artery) and nivolumab through a vein works for advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (liver cancer). It is for people whose cancer cannot be removed with surgery or treated with a transplant, especially after standard treatment failed or wasn’t tolerated.
VillejuifAges 18 years+ - NCT04851119RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Tegavivint for kids and young adults with hard-to-treat solid tumors
This early-phase study tests tegavivint to see how well it works and how safe it is for children and young adults with solid cancers that have come back or are not responding. It may be an option if your tumor type (including certain lymphomas or desmoid tumors) matches the study’s rules.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 1–30 - 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 - NCT05155189RecruitingPhase 1
Armored CAR-T treatment for advanced liver cancer
This Phase 1 trial tests the safety and early signs of effectiveness of an “armored” CAR-T cell therapy (C-CAR031) for advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (liver cancer). It may help by teaching the body’s immune cells to better recognize and attack the cancer.
