Radiation plus chemo-immunotherapy for colon cancer with liver spread
This trial tests a combination of low-dose radiation, chemotherapy, and immunotherapy for people with colorectal cancer that has spread only to the liver. The goal is to see if this approach can shrink tumors and improve outcomes.

PSMA-targeted radioactive therapy for advanced liver cancer
This trial tests a radioactive treatment called 177Lu-PSMA-617 for advanced liver cancer that has not responded to first-line immunotherapy. You need a PSMA-PET scan first to see if your cancer absorbs the treatment.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT06856252Recruiting
Studying human liver organoids for a fatty liver disease called NASH
This study takes small samples of liver tissue to grow 3D 'mini livers' (organoids) in the lab. Researchers want to learn how non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), a serious fatty liver condition, starts and progresses, which could lead to better treatments.
Milan, MilanoAges 18 years+ - NCT06857773RecruitingPhase 3
Combined pump therapy and chemo for liver-only colorectal cancer
This trial tests a treatment approach where you receive chemotherapy directly into your liver through a surgically placed pump, combined with standard systemic chemotherapy (given through a vein). The goal is to shrink liver tumors enough so they can be removed later with surgery. It is for people whose colorectal cancer has spread only to the liver and has not been treated before.
AmsterdamAges 18 years+ - NCT06860815RecruitingPhase 2
Cemiplimab with liver radiation for breast cancer that spread to the liver
This trial tests a combination of a drug called cemiplimab (an immunotherapy that helps your immune system fight cancer) and a type of targeted radiation (Y-90 SIR-Spheres) given directly to liver tumors. It is for people with breast cancer that has spread to the liver and who have already had at least one type of chemotherapy.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06863376RecruitingPhase 2
Carbocisteine for fatty liver disease: safety and benefit study
This study tests a medicine called carbocisteine to see if it can help treat nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). If you have a fatty liver and no other liver or kidney conditions, this trial may explore whether this drug is safe and effective for you.
TantaAges 18–65 - NCT06866496Recruiting
Better remission in alcohol-related liver cirrhosis
This trial tests if an optimized treatment plan can improve remission in people with liver cirrhosis caused by alcohol. It aims to help patients achieve better health outcomes.
Hvidovre, Capital RegionAges 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+ - NCT06888063RecruitingPhase 2
Chemo pump into the liver for bile duct cancer that can be surgically removed
This trial tests whether giving extra chemotherapy directly to the liver through a small pump (called HAIP) before or after surgery can improve outcomes for patients with bile duct cancer inside the liver. It is for patients whose cancer is considered removable by surgery.
Rotterdam, South HollandAges 18 years+ - NCT06904755RecruitingPhase 1
Stem cell therapy for liver failure through blood purification
This trial tests whether adding mesenchymal stem cells to a blood-cleaning procedure helps people with acute liver failure recover. It may reduce inflammation and improve liver function.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–65 - NCT06905054RecruitingPhase 2
Preventing PSC recurrence after liver transplant
This trial tests whether fenofibrate can prevent primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) from coming back after a liver transplant. It is for adults who had a liver transplant for PSC between 1 and 7 years ago and have certain risk factors.
Scottsdale, ArizonaAges 18–75 - NCT06910722Recruiting
Liver transplant for bile duct cancer after treatment
This trial tests if a liver transplant can help people with a certain type of bile duct cancer (intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma) that cannot be removed by surgery. Before the transplant, you would receive radiation therapy (SIRT) and chemotherapy to shrink the tumor.

Malnutrition's effect on liver and spleen stiffness in kids
This study measures how malnutrition affects liver and spleen stiffness (tissue hardness) in children using a non-invasive ultrasound test called elastography. It compares these measurements between malnourished children and healthy children to understand potential organ changes.

Pioglitazone and empagliflozin for fatty liver in type 2 diabetes
This trial tests two diabetes pills (pioglitazone and empagliflozin) to see if they can reduce liver fat in people with type 2 diabetes and fatty liver disease. It may help if your diabetes is not well controlled and you have a fatty liver confirmed by a special ultrasound scan.
Seongnam-siAges 20 years+ - NCT07001592RecruitingPhase 1

This study tests whether a combination of two medicines (G-CSF and darbepoetin) given in one or more cycles can improve the body's immune and metabolic health in people with early-stage decompensated cirrhosis (advanced liver disease with mild complications). It compares these treatments with standard medical care.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for liver?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 1,253 recruiting liver 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 liver 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 liver 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.
