Testing immune treatment benefit based on beta-catenin activity in liver cancer
Part of Cancer, Digestive system clinical trials.
This Phase 2 trial studies whether a liver-cancer feature called beta-catenin activity can predict who benefits from immune checkpoint inhibitor treatment. If you may not be a good candidate for surgery or local therapies, the trial may help match the right patients to this type of immunotherapy.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older
- You have confirmed liver cancer (hepatocellular carcinoma) and it cannot be fully treated with surgery or only local treatments, or it has come back/progressed
- You have at least one measurable tumor spot on a CT or MRI done within the last 6 weeks
- Your doctor expects you can live at least 6 months
- Your liver and kidney blood tests are within the required limits (Child-Pugh 9 or less, and other liver/kidney markers not too high)

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial tests a combination of a personalized immune cell treatment (made from your own cells) and a pneumococcal vaccine along with an “immune checkpoint” drug after high-dose radiation for certain unresectable liver cancers. The goal is to help your immune system better attack the cancer and to see how safe and effective this approach is.
This trial tests a combination of focused radiation (SBRT), an immunotherapy drug (adelimumab), and a targeted therapy pill (apatinib) before surgery for liver cancer. The goal is to shrink tumors enough to make surgery possible or more effective.
This trial tests new treatment plans for people with advanced liver cancer that has worsened after initial therapy. The goal is to find more effective, personalized options based on how your cancer responds.
This trial aims to discover new immune system targets on liver cancer cells and other tumors to develop better immunotherapies. Researchers will analyze tumor samples to find these targets, which could lead to more effective treatments.
This trial tests a combination of liver-directed chemotherapy (HAIC), an immunotherapy drug (sintilimab), and a drug that blocks blood vessel growth (bevacizumab biosimilar) for advanced liver cancer that hasn't been treated with systemic therapy before. The goal is to see if this triple therapy can shrink or control the cancer.
This study is testing whether combining targeted therapy with immunotherapy can help people with advanced liver cancer that cannot be surgically removed. The goal is to see if this combination treatment is safe and effective.
