Triple therapy for aggressive liver cancer
Treatments studied
Part of Cancer, Digestive system clinical trials.
This trial tests a combination of three treatments for a specific type of aggressive liver cancer called infiltrative hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). It combines targeted therapy (lenvatinib), immunotherapy (sintilimab), and a procedure that delivers chemotherapy directly to the liver (bTAE-HAIC). The goal is to see if this triple approach works better for people with large tumors or those that have spread to the portal vein.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a type of liver cancer called infiltrative HCC, which looks like a mass without a clear border on scans.
- Your largest tumor is at least 10 cm across, or the total size of all tumors is at least 15 cm.
- You have a blood test showing your liver function is fairly stable (Child-Pugh class A or B).
- You are between 18 and 75 years old.
- You have not had major bleeding in your stomach or intestines in the last month.
- You do not have cancer that has spread to many places (more than 5 spots) or into the main vein that carries blood from your liver.

This trial tests a combination of treatments—bland transarterial embolization (bTAE), hepatic artery infusion chemotherapy (HAIC), and systemic therapy—for people with large liver cancers that have limited spread. It might be an option if you have a big tumor and your liver is still working well.
This trial tests a combination of immunotherapy (sintilimab), a targeted anti-angiogenic drug (bevacizumab biosimilar), and liver-directed therapies (TACE-HAIC) before and after surgery for hepatocellular carcinoma that has spread to the portal vein. The goal is to see if this approach improves outcomes for patients with advanced but resectable liver cancer.
This trial tests a combination of two drugs (lenvatinib and toripalimab, a type of immunotherapy) plus a special chemotherapy infusion directly into the liver artery for people with advanced liver cancer that has not been treated before. The goal is to see if adding the immunotherapy helps shrink tumors better than the standard combination.
This study tests a combination of three treatments—TACE (a procedure that blocks blood flow to the tumor), lenvatinib (a targeted therapy pill), and tislelizumab (an immunotherapy)—for people with liver cancer that has spread into the bile ducts and can't be removed by surgery. The goal is to see if this triple therapy helps shrink or control the cancer.
This trial tests a three-drug combination for a specific type of liver cancer called infiltrative hepatocellular carcinoma. It combines a liver-directed chemotherapy infusion (HAIC) with two oral and intravenous drugs (lenvatinib and a PD-1 inhibitor) to see if it works better than lenvatinib alone.
This trial tests a combination of three treatments for advanced liver cancer that cannot be removed by surgery: a targeted oral drug (Donafenib), an immunotherapy (Sintilimab), and a type of chemotherapy given directly into the liver artery. The goal is to see if this triple therapy works better than current options for people who have not had any prior cancer treatment.
