Recruiting studies
- NCT07227012RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of a new drug for advanced liver cancer
This trial tests a new medicine, PF-08634404, alone or with other treatments for adults with advanced liver cancer that cannot be removed by surgery or has spread. It is for people who have not had prior systemic therapy and have good liver function.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07219459RecruitingPhase 2
New drug combo for liver cancer after PD-1/PD-L1 treatment fails
This study tests three drugs (visugromab, nivolumab, lenvatinib) compared to a placebo plus lenvatinib for people with liver cancer (HCC) that cannot be removed or has spread, and who have already been treated with a PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitor without success. The goal is to see if the combination can help shrink tumors or slow the cancer.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18–100 - NCT07010497RecruitingPhase 2
Study of a three-drug combo for advanced liver cancer
This trial tests a new combination of three drugs (Irpagratinib, Atezolizumab, and Bevacizumab) for people with advanced liver cancer that cannot be removed by surgery. It aims to see if this combination is safe and effective.
SeoulAges 19 years+ - NCT03894917Recruiting
Study blood and imaging features in older adults with liver cancer
This study looks at what liver cancer is like in newly diagnosed people who are older and whose cancer cannot be removed by surgery. It may help doctors better understand disease behavior and how treatments may work and affect the body.

Atezolizumab and bevacizumab before liver transplant for liver cancer
This trial tests giving atezolizumab plus bevacizumab before liver transplant in people with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) that is too advanced to be listed within the “Milan criteria,” but still transplant-eligible. The goal is to control the cancer outside the transplant period and improve transplant outcomes.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05257590RecruitingPhase 2
CVM-1118 plus nivolumab for advanced liver cancer
This Phase 2 trial tests whether CVM-1118 given with nivolumab can help people with advanced, unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (a type of liver cancer) that can’t be cured with surgery. It’s for patients whose cancer has worsened after earlier cancer medicines or treatments.

ChanghuaAges 18–99 - NCT05408221RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Liver cancer trial testing Rulonilimab plus Lenvatinib
This Phase 2/3 study tests whether combining rulonilimab with lenvatinib can control unresectable advanced liver cancer (HCC) that cannot be removed by surgery or treated locally. You may be considered if you have not had prior whole-body (systemic) cancer treatments and your organs and blood counts are strong enough.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT05440708RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study drug for advanced liver cancer that cannot be removed
This trial tests TTI-101, by itself and with other cancer medicines, for liver cancer that is advanced and cannot be removed by surgery. It aims to see whether the treatment can slow the cancer down and improve outcomes.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT05528952RecruitingPhase 2
Vaccine plus immunotherapy for unresectable liver cancer
This Phase 2 trial studies whether adding a cancer vaccine (to help the immune system recognize your tumor) to two medicines—atezolizumab and bevacizumab—can better control unresectable or advanced liver cancer. It’s for people who haven’t had prior whole-body (systemic) cancer treatment.
BesançonAges 18 years+ - NCT05594927RecruitingPhase 3
Test icaritin vs huachansu for advanced liver cancer with poor health
This Phase 3 trial compares two medicines—icaritin soft capsules versus huachansu tablets—as first treatment for unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) that has “poor prognosis” blood test markers. It aims to see which option works better and is safer for people who can’t use standard first-line treatments or don’t want them.
Nanchang, JiangxiAges 18 years+ - NCT05713994Recruiting
Liver cancer treatments together for unresectable liver tumors
This trial tests a combined treatment plan—chemo delivered to the liver, targeted therapy, anti-VEGF therapy, and immunotherapy—to control unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). It may help shrink tumors or slow progression when surgery isn’t possible.
Quanzhou, FujianAges 18 years+ - NCT05844046RecruitingPhase 2
Triple drug treatment for advanced liver cancer that can’t be removed
This Phase 2 trial tests three medicines together (durvalumab, tremelimumab, and bevacizumab) to treat non-surgical (non-resectable) liver cancer. It may help shrink tumors and slow disease progression by boosting the immune system and blocking tumor blood supply.
MunichAges 18 years+ - NCT05992584RecruitingPhase 2
Lenvatinib, sintilimab, and SIRT for liver cancer
This trial tests a combination of two drugs (lenvatinib and sintilimab) plus a procedure called SIRT (radioactive beads) for people with liver cancer that can't be surgically removed. The goal is to see if this triple approach works better than standard treatments.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT06034977RecruitingPhase 2
ADI-PEG 20 and Lenvatinib for liver cancer
This trial tests a combination of two drugs, ADI-PEG 20 and Lenvatinib, for people with advanced liver cancer that cannot be removed by surgery. It aims to see if this combination can help shrink or control the cancer.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (hcc)?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 141 recruiting unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (hcc) 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 unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (hcc) 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 unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (hcc) 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.
