Recruiting studies
- NCT05092373RecruitingPhase 1
Tumor treating device plus targeted or immune drugs for advanced cancers
This Phase 1 study tests whether a tumor treating fields device works better when added to standard cancer drugs. It may help people with advanced solid tumors in the chest or belly, especially when standard treatment didn’t work or can’t be tolerated.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05003895RecruitingPhase 1
CAR-T for solid tumors with high GPC3 protein
This early-phase trial tests a personalized CAR-T cell treatment for cancers that make a lot of a protein called GPC3. If you have advanced cancer that has already tried at least one standard treatment, and your tumor has enough GPC3, this study aims to see how well the treatment can shrink tumors and how safe it is.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–120 - NCT04634357RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing donor-like immune T cells for children with liver cancer
This Phase 1/2 trial tests an immune-cell treatment (ET140203 T cells) in children and teens with certain liver cancers that have come back or did not respond to standard treatment. It aims to see whether these T cells can shrink tumors and is mainly focused on safety and early effectiveness.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 1–21 - NCT04221893Recruiting
Radiation therapy for metastatic gastrointestinal cancers
This trial tests whether adding radiation therapy to your current immunotherapy can help control cancer that has spread in the digestive system. It aims to improve symptoms and possibly slow the cancer's growth.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT03823144Recruiting
Imaging small live tumor details during surgery
This study uses a special camera to look at solid tumors from inside the body during an operation. It tests whether “live” tumor imaging (using a medicine called fluorescein) can be safely performed in people with certain solid cancers.
Jacksonville, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT06261125RecruitingPhase 2
SBRT plus immunotherapy and targeted drug for liver cancer
This trial tests a combination of radiation (SBRT), an immunotherapy drug (PD-L1 inhibitor), and a targeted therapy (lenvatinib) for people with liver cancer that has spread to abdominal lymph nodes. It may be an option if you haven't taken certain immunotherapies before or if your cancer progressed after them.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT06470256RecruitingPhase 1
Surgery plus targeted therapy and immunotherapy for advanced liver cancer
This trial tests if removing the main liver tumor with surgery, followed by targeted therapy and immunotherapy, can help people with advanced liver cancer that has spread a little. It is for those who have not had prior treatment and whose liver is still working well.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18–75 - 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 - NCT05057845RecruitingPhase 2
Freezing treatment plus immunotherapy and a pill for liver cancer
This trial tests whether freezing (cryoablation) combined with tislelizumab and lenvatinib can help shrink advanced liver cancer and improve outcomes after earlier treatments stopped working or caused side effects. It may be an option if your cancer can’t be removed with surgery and you’ve already tried one prior systemic (whole-body) treatment.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06986785RecruitingPhase 2
Study of new drug combinations for advanced liver cancer
This trial tests a new drug called BL-B01D1, alone or together with other drugs, in people with advanced liver cancer that has not improved with other treatments. The goal is to see if these combinations can help shrink tumors or slow the cancer's growth.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT06902389RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Multi-target immune cell therapy for advanced liver cancer
This trial tests a new type of immune cell therapy (multi-target Hi-TCR-T cells) for people with advanced liver cancer that hasn't responded to earlier treatments. The therapy targets several markers on your cancer cells to try to attack the tumor more effectively.
Shanghai, Yangpu DistrictAges 18–75 - NCT06789848RecruitingPhase 2
Testing two immunotherapy drugs for advanced liver and bile duct cancers
This trial tests two investigational drugs, ligufalimab and cadonilimab, for people with advanced liver cancer (hepatocellular carcinoma, HCC) or bile duct cancer (biliary tract cancer, BTC) that has not responded to previous treatment with an immunotherapy drug. The goal is to see if this combination can shrink tumors or slow cancer growth.
Dallas, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06530251RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
AK112 for advanced liver cancer (HCC)
This trial tests a new immunotherapy drug called AK112 for people with advanced liver cancer that hasn't spread to the brain or key blood vessels. It may be an option if you haven't had immunotherapy before and your liver is still working well.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT04248569RecruitingPhase 1
Vaccine plus immunotherapy for a specific liver cancer gene change
This Phase 1 trial tests a personalized peptide vaccine (targeting the DNAJB1-PRKACA fusion) combined with immunotherapy drugs to treat fibrolamellar hepatocellular carcinoma (FLC) or other eligible non-FLC cancers with the same gene fusion. It aims to see whether this immune-based treatment can shrink tumors and improve outcomes safely.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 12 years+ - NCT07186010Recruiting
Immune therapy biomarkers in advanced liver cancer
This trial studies how liver cancer changes during immunotherapy and looks for biological markers that may predict treatment response. It helps doctors understand why some patients benefit more from treatment.
Seoul, Song-paAges 19 years+ - NCT06254248RecruitingPhase 2
Safety of two cancer drugs after liver transplant
This trial tests a combination of two drugs (atezolizumab and bevacizumab) for people whose liver cancer has returned after a liver transplant and cannot be treated with surgery or other local procedures. The goal is to see if this treatment is safe for liver transplant recipients.
ClichyAges 18–90 - NCT06618664RecruitingPhase 3
New triple combo vs standard therapy for advanced liver cancer
This trial tests a new combination of three drugs (SHR-8068, adebrelimab, and bevacizumab) against two standard immunotherapy combinations (sintilimab or atezolizumab plus bevacizumab) for people with advanced liver cancer who haven't had systemic treatment before. The goal is to see if the new combo works better for shrinking or controlling the cancer.
Hefei, AnhuiAges 18 years+ - NCT07850882Recruiting
Virus injection plus immunotherapy for advanced colorectal, stomach, or liver cancer
This study tests whether a special virus injected directly into tumors can help your body fight cancer when combined with an immunotherapy drug. It is for people with advanced colorectal, stomach, or liver cancer that has spread and who have tumors that can be reached for injection.
Guangdong, FoshanAges 18–75 - NCT06553885RecruitingPhase 2
Study of enfortumab vedotin for advanced colorectal or liver cancer

New immune vaccine plus nivolumab for liver cancer
This trial studies whether an individualized “neoantigen” cancer vaccine given to immune cells (dendritic cells) plus nivolumab can improve outcomes in people with liver cancer and/or colorectal cancer that has spread only to the liver. It focuses on tumors that can be removed with curative surgery (with or without local ablation) and on people with good enough liver and overall health.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for metastatic hepatocellular carcinoma?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 154 recruiting metastatic 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 metastatic 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 metastatic 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.
