Combination treatment for advanced liver cancer
Part of Cancer, Digestive system clinical trials.
This trial tests a combination of two treatments for advanced liver cancer that cannot be removed by surgery. One treatment delivers chemotherapy directly to the tumor, and the other uses tiny beads to block the tumor's blood supply. This approach may help shrink tumors and slow the cancer's growth.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have been diagnosed with advanced liver cancer that cannot be removed with surgery.
- You are between 18 and 80 years old.
- You are generally able to take care of yourself (ECOG score 0-1).
- Your liver function is mostly preserved (Child-Pugh class A or B).
- Your blood counts and liver/kidney function tests meet certain minimum levels.
- You have not had prior liver cancer treatments like TACE, radiation, or targeted pills.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial combines surgery to remove liver tumors with two drugs, camrelizumab (an immunotherapy that helps your immune system fight cancer) and apatinib (a targeted therapy that may cut off the tumor's blood supply). It aims to see if this combination helps people with advanced liver cancer that has spread outside the liver (but not to the brain) and who have chosen not to have other standard treatments like TACE or radiation. Participating could potentially control the spreading cancer and improve outcomes.
This study is testing whether combining targeted therapy with immunotherapy (or using two immunotherapies together) can help people with liver cancer that cannot be surgically removed. The goal is to understand how well these treatments work and how they affect biomarkers (signals in your body that show treatment response).
This trial tests whether giving a combination of chemotherapy, immunotherapy, and targeted therapy before surgery can shrink liver cancer and reduce the chance of it coming back, compared to going straight to surgery. The treatment includes medicines like pembrolizumab (sintilimab) and a drug that blocks blood vessel growth (bevacizumab).
This trial tests a combination of three treatments for advanced liver cancer that can't be removed by surgery. It uses an immunotherapy drug (cadonilimab), a targeted therapy pill (lenvatinib), and a direct chemotherapy infusion into the liver (HAIC). The goal is to see if this combo can shrink tumors and improve outcomes.
This trial tests a new combination for liver cancer that cannot be surgically removed yet. It uses tiny radioactive beads (yttrium-90) to deliver radiation directly to the tumor, along with immunotherapy drugs and a targeted therapy to shrink the tumor, with the hope that it can later be surgically removed.
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.
