CAR T-cell therapy for liver cancer that has GPC3

Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Part of Cancer, Digestive system clinical trials.

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.

Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

Phase
Phase 1/Phase 2
Enrollment
105 people
Ages
18 years to 70 years
Study type
Interventional

Who can take part

  • You have confirmed liver cancer (HCC) by scan or pathology.
  • Your tumor tests positive for GPC3 (from a biopsy or stored tumor tissue from the last year).
  • Your liver cancer is not removable by surgery (BCLC stage B or C), and has gotten worse after standard treatments.
  • You’ve already had at least two types of whole-body (systemic) cancer treatment, and the cancer kept growing during or after them.
  • Your overall health is good enough for treatment (Child-Pugh A or B7, no past liver brain confusion, ECOG 0–1), and you have at least one measurable tumor spot.
  • You must not have certain medical situations (brain/spinal spread, prior organ transplant, major immune/virus infections, or pregnancy/breastfeeding).

CAR T therapy for advanced liver cancer with GPC3

This Phase 1 study tests a personalized immune-cell treatment (CAR T cells) for advanced liver cancer that has the GPC3 protein. It aims to see whether these engineered cells can find and kill cancer cells safely and help shrink the cancer.

GPC3-targeted CAR-T for advanced liver cancer

This trial tests a custom immune-cell treatment (CAR-T) that targets a marker called GPC3 in people with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (a type of liver cancer). It’s for cases where standard treatments have not worked well, and the goal is to shrink tumors and improve outcomes.

Study of C-CAR031 for advanced GPC3-positive liver cancer

This trial tests a new type of cell therapy called C-CAR031, which is designed to target and attack liver cancer cells that have a protein called GPC3. It is for people with advanced liver cancer who have already tried other treatments and are looking for a new option.

CAR-T for solid tumors with high GPC3 protein

This early-phase trial tests a personalized CAR-T cell treatment for cancers that make a lot of a protein called GPC3. If you have advanced cancer that has already tried at least one standard treatment, and your tumor has enough GPC3, this study aims to see how well the treatment can shrink tumors and how safe it is.

Armored CAR T cells for GPC3-positive solid tumors

This trial tests a new type of immunotherapy called CAR T cells that are trained to find and attack cancer cells with a specific marker (GPC3). The CAR T cells are also 'armored' with extra proteins (IL-15 and IL-21) to help them work better. It might be an option for adults with advanced solid tumors, especially liver cancer, that have not responded to standard treatments.

Engineered immune cells for adults with liver and other solid tumors

This trial tests a new type of immune cell (CAR T cell) that targets a protein called GPC3 found on certain solid tumors. It aims to see if these cells are safe and can help adults with liver cancer or other GPC3-positive tumors that have not responded to standard treatments.
