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+ - NCT05516628RecruitingPhase 2
Adjuvant atezolizumab plus bevacizumab after liver cancer surgery
This trial studies whether adding atezolizumab and bevacizumab after complete liver cancer surgery can lower the chance the cancer comes back. It also uses “multi-omics” tests (special lab tests on your tissue/blood) to help predict who is more likely to respond or resist treatment.
SingaporeAges 21–90 - NCT05440708RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study drug for advanced liver cancer that cannot be removed
This trial tests TTI-101, by itself and with other cancer medicines, for liver cancer that is advanced and cannot be removed by surgery. It aims to see whether the treatment can slow the cancer down and improve outcomes.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT05375370Recruiting
Testing a blood test to predict liver cancer coming back
This study checks whether a blood test (circulating tumor DNA) can help predict if hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) will return after curative treatment like surgery or ablation. If it works, it may help doctors plan closer follow-up or earlier treatment if recurrence risk is higher.
RouenAges 18 years+ - NCT05185505Enrolling by invitationPhase 4
Immunotherapy before liver transplant for advanced liver cancer
This trial tests whether giving a combination of two immunotherapy drugs before a liver transplant can help people with advanced liver cancer (beyond standard size limits) receive a transplant successfully. The treatment aims to shrink the tumor and improve outcomes.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - 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.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–75 - 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 - NCT04134559RecruitingPhase 2
Pembrolizumab for kids with liver cancer that came back
This trial studies pembrolizumab (an immune therapy) in children and young people with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) that has returned or did not respond to earlier treatment. The goal is to see whether it can shrink tumors and help control the cancer.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges birth–30 years - NCT06550921Recruiting
Ablation plus lenvatinib and immunotherapy for advanced liver cancer
This trial tests whether adding a targeted procedure (ablation) to burn away cancer spots, when combined with lenvatinib and an immunotherapy drug (PD-1 inhibitor), can help control liver cancer that has spread to a few places. It's for people whose liver tumors are already responding to treatment.
Beijing, None SelectedAges 18–75 - NCT06624098Recruiting
Early TIPS for Advanced Liver Cancer with Vein Blockage
This study tests whether placing a small tube (TIPS) early in people with advanced liver cancer and a vein blockage helps their other treatments work better. It is for patients who are already taking lenvatinib and immunotherapy.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT07703735Enrolling by invitation
Survival after ABO-mismatch living donor liver transplant for liver cancer
This trial looks at how well patients with liver cancer do after receiving a living donor liver transplant that is not the same blood type. It compares survival and cancer return for these patients.
Ages 18 years+ - NCT06313190RecruitingPhase 2
SBRT plus immunotherapy for small liver cancer
This trial tests a combination of targeted radiation (SBRT) and immunotherapy for people with small liver cancers that have come back or are still present after prior treatment. It aims to see if this approach can better control the cancer without using heavy chemotherapy.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT07560488RecruitingPhase 2
Immunotherapy and Chemotherapy Combination for Advanced Liver Cancer
This trial tests a combination of four treatments (two immunotherapy drugs, a blood-vessel-blocking drug, and chemotherapy delivered directly to the liver) to shrink unresectable (inoperable) advanced liver cancer and potentially make it removable by surgery. The goal is to help patients who have never had cancer treatment before.
Tianjin, Tianjin MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT07446257RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Combining THIO and cadonilimab for liver cancer surgery
This trial tests two drugs (THIO and cadonilimab) given before surgery to see if they help shrink liver cancer that can be removed. It is for people with early-stage liver cancer who are candidates for surgery.
Dallas, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07410715Recruiting
Surgery or observation after successful liver cancer treatment
This study compares surgery versus watch-and-wait for people whose liver cancer shrank significantly after treatment. It aims to find out if surgery is always needed or if watching closely is just as good.
ChengduAges 18–80 - NCT07252323Recruiting
Carbon ion radiotherapy for liver cancer after TARE
This trial tests a new type of radiation therapy (carbon ion radiotherapy) for people with liver cancer that has not been fully controlled after prior TARE treatment. It aims to see if it is safe and effective for treating the remaining or returning cancer.
SeoulAges 20 years+ - NCT07123545RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Personalized T-cell therapy for advanced liver cancer
