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+ - NCT06858735RecruitingPhase 2
HYPERION CCA: a Phase 2 Trial of Systemic Therapy With or Without Liver-directed Radiation Therapy for Patients With Advanced Intrahepatic Cholangiocarcinoma
Phase 2 trial evaluating systemic therapy ± liver-directed RT for advanced intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma, with broad eligibility for patients who have received at least 4 cycles of gem/cis/durvalumab.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07416890RecruitingPhase 2
Study of thiotepa, pirtobrutinib, and sintilimab for CNS lymphoma
This trial tests a combination of three drugs for people with central nervous system (CNS) lymphoma that has come back or not responded to treatment, or for those who cannot take standard chemotherapy. The goal is to see if this new combination is safe and effective.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–80 - NCT05969860RecruitingPhase 2
Home cancer treatment vs clinic treatment for advanced cancer
This Phase 2 trial compares giving certain standard cancer infusions at home versus in a clinic. It may help people avoid clinic visits while still receiving the same cancer treatment safely.
Jacksonville, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT05001009Enrolling by invitation
Goals of care conversation support for certain serious illnesses
This study helps primary care clinicians and their patients have structured “goals of care” conversations (about what matters most and care preferences). It may help you get clearer, earlier planning—especially if you have a serious illness and higher risk of hospitalization or death.

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.
