Comparing two treatments for advanced liver cancer
Treatments studied
Part of Cancer, Digestive system clinical trials.
This study tests two different treatment combinations for liver cancer that cannot be removed with surgery. One group gets a treatment called TACE plus a pill combination, and the other gets TACE plus standard targeted immunotherapy. The goal is to see which approach works better.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You are 18 years or older.
- You have been diagnosed with liver cancer (hepatocellular carcinoma) that cannot be treated with surgery, ablation, or a liver transplant.

- Your liver function is reasonably good (Child-Pugh class A or B7).
- You do not have severe allergies to iodine, which is used in the TACE procedure.
- You have not had major bleeding or blood clots events in the last 6 months.

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 Phase 3 trial tests whether combining camrelizumab and apatinib with TACE before/around liver cancer surgery can improve outcomes for people with certain stages of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). It may help by strengthening the immune attack on cancer and by blocking blood supply to tumors.
This trial tests a combination of two treatments for advanced liver cancer: TACE (a procedure that blocks the blood supply to the tumor) and an anti-PD-1 antibody (a type of immunotherapy that helps your immune system fight cancer). The goal is to see if this combination works better than either treatment alone and to understand how it affects the immune system around the tumor.
This trial tests a combination of treatments for liver cancer that cannot be removed with surgery. It uses a procedure to block the tumor's blood supply plus two drugs that help the immune system fight the cancer. This may help shrink tumors and slow the disease.
This trial compares two treatments for people with large liver tumors. One is a liver artery chemotherapy infusion and the other is a chemo-embolization procedure. The study will see which approach works better.
This study compares two treatment approaches for advanced liver cancer that has spread within the liver but not to other parts of the body. Both treatments combine chemotherapy delivered directly to the liver with immunotherapy drugs to help your immune system fight the cancer.
