Combined ablation and immunotherapy for pancreatic cancer with liver spread
This study tests a new treatment combining tumor destruction with heat/cold (ablation) and an immunotherapy drug (PD-1) for people whose pancreatic cancer has spread to the liver. The goal is to help the immune system fight the cancer better.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–70 - NCT06690528RecruitingPhase 2
Surgery vs. palliative care for pancreatic cancer with limited liver spread
This trial compares surgery to remove the primary tumor and up to 3 liver spots against standard palliative care for people with pancreatic cancer that has spread only to the liver (up to 3 spots). It is for those whose cancer has not grown after initial chemotherapy and who are healthy enough for surgery.
Padova, ItalyAges 18–75 - NCT07430202RecruitingPhase 1
Vaccine plus drug combination for advanced fibrolamellar carcinoma
This study tests a new vaccine (a shot that may help your immune system attack cancer cells) combined with a glutamine-blocking drug (DRP-104) and two immunotherapy drugs (nivolumab and ipilimumab) for advanced fibrolamellar carcinoma. It aims to see if this combination can shrink tumors or slow their growth.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 12 years+ - NCT07459309Recruiting
Combination treatment for liver cancer for people who can't have surgery
This trial tests a new combination treatment that uses heat (ablation) and other therapies to destroy liver tumors. It's for people who cannot have surgery or choose not to, and whose tumor is a specific size.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT06225843RecruitingPhase 2
Testing a new drug combo before liver surgery for colorectal cancer
This trial is for people with colorectal cancer that has spread to the liver. It tests whether adding a new drug (sotevtamab) to standard chemotherapy (FOLFOX) before surgery can help shrink tumors and improve outcomes.
Montreal, QuebecAges 18 years+ - NCT07277322RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Two immunotherapy drugs before surgery for MSS colorectal cancer with liver spots
This trial tests a combination of two immunotherapy drugs (Dupilumab and Toripalimab) before surgery for people with MSS colorectal cancer that has spread to the liver. The goal is to see if this treatment can shrink the liver tumors and help the body's immune system fight the cancer.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT07160946Recruiting
Liver cancer risk check for people with hepatitis B
This study looks at your risk of developing liver cancer if you have hepatitis B. It uses your medical history and test results to give you a better idea of your risk and help guide next steps.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 30–75 - NCT02081755Enrolling by invitationPhase 4
Everolimus after liver transplant to lower liver cancer return
This trial studies whether everolimus, a transplant medicine, can safely reduce the chance that liver cancer comes back after liver transplant. It compares how well the treatment works while carefully monitoring side effects and safety.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06875128RecruitingPhase 2
Liver-directed chemo with standard chemo for breast cancer
This trial tests if giving a high dose of chemotherapy directly into the liver, followed by standard chemotherapy, is safe and works better than standard chemo alone for people with breast cancer that has spread mostly to the liver.
Tampa, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT06567353Recruiting
