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+ - NCT07738172RecruitingPhase 3
Adding surgery to osimertinib for EGFR-mutant lung cancer
This trial tests whether removing the main lung tumor with surgery after 12 weeks of osimertinib (a targeted pill) helps control cancer better than osimertinib alone, for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer that has an EGFR mutation and limited spread.
Taipei, Taipei CityAges 18 years+ - NCT06349278Recruiting
Surgery for pancreatic cancer with limited liver spread after chemo
This trial is for people with pancreatic cancer that has spread to the liver (3 spots or fewer). It tests whether removing both the original tumor and the liver spots after a specific chemotherapy (FOLFIRINOX) can be helpful. You may be eligible if the chemo shrinks the tumors enough and you are healthy enough for surgery.
Québec, QuebecAges 18 years+ - NCT07059936Recruiting
AI and scans to predict immunotherapy response in liver cancer
This study uses artificial intelligence (AI) to analyze your CT or MRI scans and help predict how well immunotherapy might work for your liver cancer. The goal is to find better ways to match you with the right treatment and improve your outcomes.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18 years+ - NCT03213002RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
CAPTEM pills after brain radiation for newly diagnosed glioblastoma
This trial studies whether taking two chemotherapy pills (capecitabine and temozolomide) after the initial 6-week radiation-and-chemo phase can help people with newly diagnosed glioblastoma. It aims to test safety and early effectiveness right before the usual maintenance temozolomide phase.
New York, New YorkAges 18–74 - NCT07365527Recruiting
Ultrasound and Tumor Response in Colorectal Liver Metastases
This study is testing a new way to use ultrasound to help treat colorectal cancer that has spread to the liver. It may help doctors see how tumors respond to treatment.
CopenhagenAges 18 years+ - NCT04906434RecruitingPhase 1
Study of ABSK-011 for advanced solid tumors
This early-phase study tests how safe ABSK-011 is, what side effects it causes, and how the body processes the drug. It may help certain patients with advanced solid cancers (including some liver cancer cases) whose tumors have specific test results.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 18–75 - NCT06844357RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
New embolization vs standard for liver cancer
This trial tests a new embolization treatment (TATE) against standard therapy for people with intermediate-stage liver cancer that hasn't spread. The goal is to see if TATE works better at controlling the tumor.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18 years+ - NCT06590259RecruitingPhase 2
Ablation plus drug therapy for colorectal cancer liver metastases
This trial tests a combination treatment that uses heat or cold (ablation) to destroy liver tumors along with medicines that boost your immune system to fight cancer. It is for people whose colorectal cancer has spread to the liver and who could not have surgery, or whose first treatment stopped working.
ShanghaiAges 18–75 - NCT04510740Recruiting
Liver cancer registry study to improve future care
This study records information about people with liver cancer (hepatocellular or bile duct cancer) to help improve how care is planned and delivered. You may join a patient-experience part before or soon after starting your first main treatment.
Multiple SitesAges 18 years+ - NCT05010681RecruitingPhase 2
Lenvatinib plus immunotherapy after prior liver cancer treatment

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for primary liver cancer?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 230 recruiting primary liver cancer 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 liver cancer 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 liver cancer 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.
