This trial tests a new blood test to help detect liver cancer (HCC) or confirm it’s not present in people with cirrhosis who are being monitored. It may help improve how doctors screen for liver cancer and decide who needs further imaging or treatment.
This study follows people with cirrhosis to see how best to detect liver cancer early. If you qualify, you may receive regular monitoring that could help find liver cancer sooner, when treatment is more likely to work.
This trial tests whether saffron, a natural spice, has anti-cancer effects for people with advanced liver cancer (HCC) who cannot have standard treatments like surgery, local therapy, or chemotherapy. It aims to see if saffron can help slow the cancer or improve well-being.
This study is for people having liver cancer surgery. It will look at certain fats in your blood to see if they can help doctors understand and track liver cancer better.
This study will test a real-world blood testing system (Elecsys GAAD) to improve surveillance and earlier detection of liver cancer in people who already have liver scarring (cirrhosis). If it works well, it could help find liver cancer sooner and potentially improve outcomes.
This trial is testing if a blood test can find liver cancer early. It may help people who are newly diagnosed or suspected to have liver cancer and have not started treatment yet.
