Liver cancer risk study for people with fatty liver disease
This study looks at your risk of developing liver cancer (hepatocellular carcinoma) if you have a liver condition such as NAFLD or a related disease. It aims to improve how doctors predict who might be at higher risk, so they can offer better monitoring and care.
Milan, MilanoAges 45–75 - NCT06526338RecruitingPhase 2
Study treatment after liver surgery or microwave ablation for liver cancer
This study tests an investigational drug called IP-001 given after surgery or microwave ablation for liver cancer. The goal is to help prevent the cancer from coming back.
Louisville, KentuckyAges 18 years+ - NCT06523608Recruiting
Predicting liver problems in advanced chronic liver disease
This study looks at people with advanced chronic liver disease to find ways to predict when they might get worse or develop liver cancer. Researchers hope to use this information to prevent complications and improve care.
Münster, North Rhine-WestphaliaAges 18 years+ - NCT06015022RecruitingPhase 2
Green tea extract to prevent liver cancer in cirrhosis
This trial tests whether a green tea extract called EGCG can prevent liver cancer in people with cirrhosis. It looks at how the extract affects liver cell changes that could lead to cancer.
Dallas, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06503146RecruitingPhase 2
New imaging tracer for detecting various cancers
This trial tests a new imaging agent, [18F]FAPI-74, which might help detect certain cancers more clearly. The scan looks for a protein called fibroblast activation protein (FAP) that is often found in tumors. If you have one of the listed cancers and are about to start treatment, this study could help doctors see where the cancer is and how it responds to therapy.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–120 - NCT06478693RecruitingPhase 1
Study of MT-303 for advanced liver cancer
This study tests a new drug called MT-303 for people with advanced liver cancer (HCC) or other cancers that produce a protein called GPC3. The drug is designed to target and attack the cancer cells. The trial is in an early phase, so it is looking at safety and how well the drug works.
Sydney, New South WalesAges 18 years+ - NCT06179602Recruiting
Study of thermal ablation for liver tumors
This study follows patients who are having a procedure called thermal ablation to treat liver tumors. It aims to learn more about how well the procedure works and how safe it is.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for hepatocellular carcinoma?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 581 recruiting hepatocellular carcinoma 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 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 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.
