-
Anatomic vs nonanatomic liver resection after conversion therapy for liver cancer
This study tests whether removing more precisely targeted liver tissue (anatomic resection) works better than removing tissue more broadly (nonanatomic) for patients whose unresectable liver cancer became eligible for surgery after PD-1/PD-L1–based therapy.
-
Impact of Anesthesia on Inflammation and NETosis During HCC Ablation
This study tests whether a propofol–fentanyl anesthesia plan with lidocaine during radiofrequency ablation for hepatocellular carcinoma affects inflammation and NETosis in patients with small tumors.
-
Pre-emptive topical indomethacin to prevent sorafenib-related hand-foot syndrome in advanced liver cancer
This trial will test whether applying 1% indomethacin gel to both hands twice daily can reduce hand-foot syndrome in adults with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma starting sorafenib.
-
Becotatug vedotin (MRG003) for previously treated advanced liver cancer with EGFR testing
This study will test whether Becotatug vedotin (MRG003) helps people with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma whose cancer progressed after PD‑1/L1 therapy.
-
TACE or Ablation With Sintilimab and Ipilimumab Before Surgery for Liver Cancer
This study tests whether combining local tumor treatments with immunotherapy before surgery helps people with resectable hepatocellular carcinoma at higher risk of recurrence.
-
Personalized adaptive second-line treatments for advanced liver cancer
This trial tries different personalized second-line treatments to find which work best for people with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma after first-line immunotherapy-based regimens stop working.
-
TACE with doxorubicin plus ABCB1 blocker nicardipine versus standard TACE for liver cancer
This trial tests whether adding the ABCB1 blocker nicardipine to doxorubicin-based TACE helps people with hepatocellular carcinoma (tumors 3–8 cm) get better tumor control than standard TACE alone.
-
Using fecal microbiota transplantation to try to restore response to atezolizumab and bevacizumab in people with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma.
This will try whether giving a fecal microbiota transplant and then restarting atezolizumab plus bevacizumab can restore treatment response in adults with unresectable HCC who progressed early on those drugs.
-
Camrelizumab plus apatinib with or without FOLFOX chemotherapy for advanced liver cancer
This research will test whether adding FOLFOX chemotherapy to camrelizumab plus apatinib helps adults with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma who have not received prior systemic treatment.
-
Detecting hepatocellular carcinoma with the Delta-HLD blood test
This project will test whether the Delta-HLD liquid biopsy can detect hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) using blood and matched liver tissue from people with HCC and from people with cirrhosis without cancer.
-
How ALPPS surgery affects liver regrowth after major liver cancer operations
This project will follow adults with liver cancer who undergo ALPPS surgery to see if the quickly regrown liver tissue works well and how that relates to cancer coming back.
-
Outpatient versus inpatient care for catheter-based treatment of primary liver cancer (CHOC)
This trial will see if having TACE or TARE as an outpatient (ambulatory) procedure is as safe and more satisfying than staying in the hospital for adults with hepatocellular carcinoma or intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma.
-
Evaluating PIVKA-II levels in liver cancer patients with portal vein thrombosis
This study is trying to see if measuring a specific protein in the blood can help tell if liver cancer patients have a blockage in their portal vein caused by the tumor.
-
Evaluating liver stiffness to predict immunotherapy response in liver cancer
This study is testing if a special scan can help predict how well people with advanced liver cancer will respond to immunotherapy treatment.
-
Combining HAIC with Donafenib and Sintilimab for Liver Cancer Treatment
This study is testing if a new combination of chemotherapy and medications can help people with liver cancer who are at high risk of their cancer coming back after surgery.
-
Combining PD-L1 antibody and Bevacizumab with chemotherapy for advanced liver cancer
This study is testing a new combination of treatments for people with advanced liver cancer to see if it can help them live longer and feel better.
