Recruiting studies
- 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+ - NCT05751343RecruitingPhase 2
Test atezolizumab and bevacizumab with liver cancer procedures
This Phase 2 trial tests whether atezolizumab plus bevacizumab, given along with liver cancer treatment procedures (TACE/HAIC), can help people with advanced liver cancer that cannot be removed by surgery. It mainly looks at whether these medicines can control the cancer more effectively and safely.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT07376707RecruitingPhase 1
Study of TGI-5 alone or with nivolumab for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug called TGI-5, either by itself or combined with another drug (nivolumab), for people with advanced cancer that hasn't responded to standard treatments. It's looking for patients with certain types of solid tumors, especially colorectal, melanoma, lung, or others that have stopped responding to therapy.
ShanghaiAges 18 years+ - NCT07197554RecruitingPhase 1
A study of an experimental drug for advanced solid tumors

Combination therapy for advanced liver cancer
This trial tests a combination of three treatments: an immunotherapy drug (Sintilimab), a targeted therapy (Bevacizumab), and a type of internal radiation (SIRT) for people with intermediate or advanced liver cancer that cannot be surgically removed. The goal is to see if this combination can shrink tumors and improve outcomes.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT06294548RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Valemetostat plus atezolizumab and bevacizumab for advanced liver cancer
This trial tests a combination of three drugs—valemetostat, atezolizumab, and bevacizumab—for people with advanced liver cancer (HCC) who have not had systemic treatment before. The goal is to see if this combination can shrink tumors or slow disease progression.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT06215651RecruitingPhase 2
Testing cadonilimab and lenvatinib before liver cancer surgery
This study tests whether a combination of two drugs (cadonilimab and lenvatinib) can shrink liver cancer enough to make it removable by surgery for people whose cancer was previously too advanced for surgery. You may qualify if your cancer hasn't spread far, you haven't had treatment before, and your liver is still working fairly well.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT05733598RecruitingPhase 2
RP2 plus standard treatment for advanced liver or bile cancers
This Phase 2 trial studies whether RP2, added to standard second-line treatment, can improve outcomes for people with advanced liver cancer or bile duct/gallbladder cancer. It may help by training the immune system to better attack the cancer after the cancer has already grown despite prior treatment.
Beverly Hills, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05652920RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
CAR T-cell therapy for liver cancer that has GPC3
This early-phase study tests modified immune T cells (CAR T cells) to treat hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), a type of liver cancer, when the tumor shows a marker called GPC3. It may help shrink tumors or slow cancer growth, especially after other treatments have stopped working.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–70 - NCT04864054RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study T-cell therapy for advanced liver cancer
This trial tests a custom immune-cell treatment made to target a marker (GPC3) found on some liver cancers. It’s for adults with advanced HCC whose cancer has worsened after standard treatment or who couldn’t tolerate it.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05441475Enrolling by invitationPhase 2
Trial for advanced liver cancer using ABSK-011 plus atezolizumab
This Phase 2 study tests ABSK-011 combined with either atezolizumab or the usual care in people with advanced or unresectable liver cancer. It aims to see if the treatment helps shrink tumors and control the cancer when standard options aren’t working or can’t be used.
Hubei, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT04777942Recruiting
New liver cancer treatment plan for high-risk early-stage patients
This trial studies a treatment approach (a combination given through the liver) for people with early liver cancer that can be surgically removed but has a high chance of coming back. It may help reduce the risk of recurrence after treatment.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT06374485RecruitingPhase 1
AU409 capsule for advanced liver cancer after other treatments fail
This trial tests a new capsule called AU409 for people with advanced liver cancer (HCC) who have already tried standard treatments and they no longer work. The goal is to see if AU409 can help control the cancer.
Hong KongAges 18–75 - NCT06418659RecruitingEarly Phase 1
CD-801 for advanced liver cancer
This early-phase trial tests an experimental drug called CD-801 given through an IV for people with advanced liver cancer (HCC) that cannot be surgically removed and has not responded to or is not suitable for standard treatments. The goal is to see if CD-801 is safe and helps shrink tumors.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06563947RecruitingPhase 2
Fecal transplant for advanced liver cancer after treatment stops working
This trial tests whether giving a fecal transplant (a procedure that replaces the bacteria in your gut) can help people with advanced liver cancer whose current treatment has stopped working. It may help boost your immune system to fight the cancer.

Study of enfortumab vedotin for advanced colorectal or liver cancer
This trial tests a drug called enfortumab vedotin for people whose colorectal or liver cancer has spread or cannot be removed and has stopped responding to or is intolerant to standard treatments. The drug is given through a vein and works by targeting cancer cells.
Tampa, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT07276100RecruitingPhase 2
Fecal transplant to help liver cancer that worsened on first treatment
This trial tests whether transplanting healthy stool bacteria into your gut can help your own immune system fight liver cancer that has stopped responding to the standard first combination treatment (atezolizumab + bevacizumab). It is for patients whose liver cancer has started growing quickly despite that treatment.
Bologna, BOAges 18 years+ - NCT07769827Recruiting

Tegavivint for kids and young adults with hard-to-treat solid tumors
This early-phase study tests tegavivint to see how well it works and how safe it is for children and young adults with solid cancers that have come back or are not responding. It may be an option if your tumor type (including certain lymphomas or desmoid tumors) matches the study’s rules.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 1–30 - NCT05024214RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Test of envafolimab plus lenvatinib for advanced solid tumors
This trial studies whether combining envafolimab (an anti-immune cancer medicine) with lenvatinib (a targeted pill) can shrink or control advanced cancers that have stopped responding to standard care. It may help people whose tumors are not curable with usual treatments, by testing a new combo and finding safe doses.

- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 137 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.
