Chemotherapy after surgery for high-risk pancreatic NET tumors
This Phase 2 trial studies whether giving chemotherapy after surgery can lower cancer recurrence risk in people with high-risk pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (NETs). It may help you by testing an added treatment after the tumor has been removed.
Anchorage, AlaskaAges 18 years+ - NCT04143516RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Test tissue testing right after liver tumor ablation
This study looks at liver metastases treated with a procedure that destroys tumors (ablation) and then checks tumor tissue right away. The team wants to see whether the tissue results can guide immediate retreatment to better control cancer in the liver.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT05967143Recruiting
Registry study for first-time SIR-Spheres in liver tumors
This is an observational (real-world) study that follows people with certain unresectable liver tumors who are getting SIR-Spheres for the first time. It helps doctors understand how this treatment is used in routine care and what outcomes patients experience.
Clichy, CedexAges 18 years+ - NCT04690972Recruiting
Collection of blood and tissue samples for liver disease research
This study builds a research library of biological samples (like tissue and blood) from people with chronic liver disease. It aims to create better lab and preclinical models of tumors and long-term liver problems, which may help future treatments.
StrasbourgAges 18 years+ - NCT07428356Recruiting
Sound waves for liver tumors
This study tests a new, noninvasive treatment called histotripsy that uses sound waves to destroy small liver tumors. It is for people whose liver cancer hasn't spread much and who haven't had success with or can't have surgery or other standard treatments.
SingaporeAges 21–99 - NCT06873659RecruitingPhase 1
Testing SON-DP for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug called SON-DP for people with advanced solid tumors that haven't responded to standard treatments. It aims to see if the drug is safe and helps shrink or control the cancer.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT06016855RecruitingPhase 4
Surgery before radiation therapy for neuroendocrine tumors
This trial tests if removing as much tumor as possible through surgery before a targeted radiation therapy (PRRT) can help people with well-differentiated neuroendocrine tumors that have spread to the liver. The goal is to see if this approach works better than radiation therapy alone.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT04075305Recruiting
Study measuring radiation treatment outcomes with an MR-Linac
This study follows what happens when radiation treatment is guided using an MR-Linac (a special machine that combines MRI imaging with radiation). It may help improve how radiation therapy is planned and assessed, especially for people who can safely have MRI scans.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 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 - NCT04842812RecruitingPhase 1
Personalized immune cell therapy for advanced solid tumors
This Phase 1 study tests engineered immune cells (TILs/CAR-TILs) made from your tumor to treat advanced solid cancers that have not responded to standard treatments. It may help your immune system better recognize and attack the cancer, but it is mainly focused on safety and early results.
GuangzhouAges 18–85 - NCT05926336RecruitingPhase 4
Different anesthesia drugs during cancer surgery
This trial compares two types of anesthesia medicines to see how they may affect outcomes after surgery for certain primary cancers. You may be considered if you’re having planned (elective) surgery under general anesthesia and meet the safety and health criteria.
Kaohsiung CityAges 20–80 - NCT06753136Recruiting
Electrochemotherapy for internal organ tumors
This trial tests a treatment called electrochemotherapy for tumors in internal organs (like the liver or pancreas) when standard treatments are no longer possible. It uses a drug called bleomycin plus electric pulses to target cancer cells.
PadovaAges 18–99 - NCT04339036RecruitingPhase 2
CapTem plus Y-90 for liver-spread neuroendocrine tumors
This Phase 2 study tests whether combining capecitabine/temozolomide (“CapTem”) with Y-90 treatment can shrink neuroendocrine tumor (NET) spread in the liver. It may help people whose tumor is mostly in the liver and cannot be fully removed with surgery.
La Jolla, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05815082RecruitingPhase 3
ctDNA-guided chemo after liver surgery for colon cancer
This trial checks whether giving chemotherapy after surgery only for people whose blood test (ctDNA) shows no remaining cancer can help prevent the cancer from coming back. It is for people with colon cancer that has spread to the liver who had the tumor fully removed.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT06398028RecruitingPhase 4
ICG dye before minimally invasive liver surgery
This study tests whether giving a special dye (ICG) before minimally invasive liver surgery helps surgeons see tumors more clearly compared to using ultrasound alone. It’s for people who are already scheduled for keyhole liver surgery.
BarcelonaAges 18 years+ - NCT07390838RecruitingPhase 1
Study of SH009 for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests an investigational drug called SH009 for people with advanced solid tumors that have stopped responding to standard treatments. It aims to see if the drug is safe and effective.
ShanghaiAges 18 years+ - NCT05331911RecruitingPhase 4
Propofol anesthesia vs sevoflurane for liver tumor surgery
This study compares two types of general anesthesia—propofol-based total intravenous anesthesia versus sevoflurane inhaled anesthesia—during planned surgery to remove liver tumors. The goal is to see whether the anesthesia choice affects long-term outcomes after partial liver removal for hepatocellular carcinoma.
Kaohsiung CityAges 20–80 - NCT05556642Recruiting
Liver tumor registry for children with relapsed cancer
This study collects information and may collect fresh tumor tissue to better understand and model relapsed or hard-to-treat liver tumors. Joining could help researchers develop future treatments and more personalized research for affected patients.
Cincinnati, OhioAges Any age - NCT06532799RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
TIL therapy with pembrolizumab for advanced stomach and esophageal cancer
This trial tests a combination of immune cells from your tumor (TILs) and an immunotherapy drug (pembrolizumab) for stomach or esophageal cancer that has spread or returned after other treatments. It may help if standard options have failed.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 16–90 - NCT06594289Recruiting
Liver surgery trial with special blood flow control
This trial tests a new way to control blood flow during laparoscopic liver surgery. It compares two methods to see which is safer and more effective for patients with certain liver conditions.
Guangzhou, China/GuangdongAges 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 - NCT03981497Recruiting
Microwave treatment for small, hard-to-remove liver and kidney tumors
This trial tests using a “microwave ablation” procedure to destroy small liver or kidney tumors when surgery isn’t an option or can’t remove everything. It may help patients avoid major surgery by targeting tumors directly with heat.
