Predicting chemo response in children with hepatoblastoma
Part of Cancer clinical trials.
This trial tests a new way to see if chemotherapy will work for children with hepatoblastoma, a type of liver cancer. It uses a blood test (ctDNA 5hmc) to help predict treatment success and monitor if the cancer comes back.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This Phase 3 study tests a modified treatment plan for children newly diagnosed with hepatoblastoma, a type of liver cancer. It may help improve how well treatment works and how safely it can be given by using a structured approach.
This trial tests a combination of an immunotherapy (pucotenlimab), a targeted therapy (lenvatinib), and chemotherapy for children with advanced or relapsed hepatoblastoma that hasn't responded to prior treatment. The goal is to see if this combination can help shrink or control the tumor.
This Phase 1/2 trial tests an immune-cell treatment (ET140203 T cells) in children and teens with certain liver cancers that have come back or did not respond to standard treatment. It aims to see whether these T cells can shrink tumors and is mainly focused on safety and early effectiveness.
This study checks whether measuring a blood test called “circulating tumor DNA” (ctDNA) helps monitor childhood lymphoma during treatment. It’s meant to see if ctDNA tracking can provide useful information alongside standard exams.
This trial is for people with early-stage liver cancer who are scheduled for surgery. It uses a simple blood test to look for tiny bits of tumor DNA after treatment, which may help predict if the cancer will come back.
This study is looking at how well a combination of two drugs (atezolizumab and bevacizumab) works for people with liver cancer that can't be removed by surgery. The goal is to learn how to predict the best response using lab tests and CT scans.
