Combination therapy for infiltrative liver cancer
This trial tests a three-drug combination for a specific type of liver cancer called infiltrative hepatocellular carcinoma. It combines a liver-directed chemotherapy infusion (HAIC) with two oral and intravenous drugs (lenvatinib and a PD-1 inhibitor) to see if it works better than lenvatinib alone.

This trial tests a combination of three treatments for advanced liver cancer that can't be removed by surgery. It uses an immunotherapy drug (cadonilimab), a targeted therapy pill (lenvatinib), and a direct chemotherapy infusion into the liver (HAIC). The goal is to see if this combo can shrink tumors and improve outcomes.

Blood test to tell apart two types of liver cancer
This study uses a blood test (called a liquid biopsy) to help doctors tell the difference between two common types of liver cancer: hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC). If you have been diagnosed with one of these cancers and have a blood sample taken before starting curative treatment, this study may help improve diagnosis and care.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06740370Recruiting
TACE with lenvatinib and immunotherapy for ruptured liver cancer
This trial tests a combination of targeted therapy (lenvatinib), immunotherapy (PD-1 inhibitor), and a procedure called TACE (which delivers chemotherapy directly to the liver tumor) for people whose liver cancer has ruptured. The goal is to stop bleeding and shrink the tumor.
Beijing, None SelectedAges 18–75 - NCT06794073Recruiting
Combination therapy for advanced liver cancer
This trial is testing a combination of treatments for liver cancer that cannot be removed by surgery. It combines a targeted therapy pill (lenvatinib), an immunotherapy that boosts your immune system (PD-1 blocker), a procedure that destroys tumors with heat or cold (ablation), and a chemo procedure that delivers medicine directly to the liver (TACE). The goal is to see if this mix is safe and effective.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT06864221Recruiting
How fat molecules in blood affect liver cancer radiotherapy
This study looks at whether certain fats in your blood can help predict how well radiotherapy works for liver cancer. If you are getting radiation for liver cancer, your blood samples may help doctors learn more about your treatment response.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–80 - NCT06921785RecruitingPhase 3
Combination therapy for first-line liver cancer treatment
This trial tests a new drug combination (rilvegostomig plus bevacizumab, with or without tremelimumab) as a first treatment for people with advanced liver cancer (HCC) that cannot be removed by surgery or treated with local therapies. It aims to see if these combinations help shrink tumors or slow disease progression.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for primary hepatocellular carcinoma?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 185 recruiting primary 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 primary 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 primary 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.
