Clinical Trials for Liver Cancer

Ablative Dose Single Fraction MRguided Colorectal Liver Metastasis SBRT

Moderate burden on patient

The trial has a moderate burden on patients. An example would be a trial testing an IV drug, with scans every 8 weeks which would be more frequent than standard of care.

HealthScout AI summary: This trial enrolls adults with 1-3 measurable colorectal cancer liver metastases (with specific size/location criteria), ECOG 0-2, and no cirrhosis, including those with prior therapies or extrahepatic disease, to receive a single 40 Gy fraction of MR-guided, adaptive SBRT for local control.

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06130280

A Phase 1/2 Study of Tegavivint (NSC#826393) in Children, Adolescents, and Young Adults With Recurrent or Refractory Solid Tumors, Including Lymphomas and Desmoid Tumors

Active drug

Investigational drug(s) in this trial have shown anticancer activity in clinical trials

High burden on patient

The trial has a high burden on patients. An example would be a phase 1 trial with extra tumor biopsies and frequent pharmacokinetic blood draws.

Started >3 years ago

The trial was activated more than 3 years ago. This is not always bad but can indicate that the trial has less current treatments, or has had trouble getting enough patients to enroll due to other issues.

HealthScout AI summary: This trial enrolls children, adolescents, and young adults with recurrent or refractory solid tumors (including lymphomas and desmoid tumors), treating them with intravenous tegavivint, a small molecule inhibitor targeting TBL1 to disrupt Wnt/beta-catenin signaling. Expansion cohorts focus on specific tumor types and Wnt pathway–driven malignancies.

Phase II Study Evaluating the Efficacy of PDS01ADC in Combination With Hepatic Artery Infusion Pump (HAIP) and Systemic Therapy for Subjects With Metastatic Colorectal Cancer, Intrahepatic Cholangiocarcinoma, or Metastatic Adrenocortical Carcinoma

Investigational drug late phase

The trial is testing an investigational drug and is at least phase 2, suggesting that the drug has shown promise in phase 1 studies and might have a high chance of working well compared to other investigational drugs.

No known activity

No investigational drug(s) in this trial have shown anticancer activity yet in clinical trials

High burden on patient

The trial has a high burden on patients. An example would be a phase 1 trial with extra tumor biopsies and frequent pharmacokinetic blood draws.

HealthScout AI summary: This trial enrolls adults with liver-only or liver-dominant metastatic colorectal cancer, intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma, or adrenocortical carcinoma who have progressed on prior chemotherapy, and treats them with hepatic artery infusion pump (HAIP) floxuridine-based chemotherapy plus standard systemic therapy and PDS01ADC, an investigational IL-12–based immunocytokine targeting necrotic tumor regions to enhance local immune activation. Cohorts are separated by tumor type.

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT05286814

A Phase II Study of Enfortumab Vedotin in Patients With Advanced or Metastatic Colorectal Cancer or Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Moderate burden on patient

The trial has a moderate burden on patients. An example would be a trial testing an IV drug, with scans every 8 weeks which would be more frequent than standard of care.

HealthScout AI summary: This trial enrolls adults with advanced or metastatic colorectal cancer (after 2-3 prior therapies) or hepatocellular carcinoma (after 1-2 prior therapies), who have good performance status and organ function. All patients receive enfortumab vedotin, an antibody-drug conjugate targeting Nectin-4 that delivers MMAE to tumor cells, administered intravenously every 28 days.

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06553885

A Phase II Pilot Study of yttriuM-90 in Combination With capEcitabine and aTezolizumab for oligomEtastatic cOlorectal Cancer With unResectable lIver MeTastasEs (METEORITE)

Moderate burden on patient

The trial has a moderate burden on patients. An example would be a trial testing an IV drug, with scans every 8 weeks which would be more frequent than standard of care.

HealthScout AI summary: This trial enrolls adults with histologically confirmed colorectal adenocarcinoma and unresectable, liver-dominant metastatic disease who have progressed after at least two prior lines of systemic therapy, excluding those with prior Y-90/liver radiotherapy, extrahepatic metastases, dMMR/MSI-H/TMB-H tumors, or previous checkpoint inhibitor exposure. Patients receive intra-arterial yttrium-90 radioembolization, oral capecitabine, and intravenous atezolizumab (an anti–PD-L1 monoclonal antibody) to assess efficacy and safety of this multimodal approach.

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06555133

An Open-label Study of E7386 in Combination With Other Anticancer Drug(s) in Subjects With Solid Tumors

Active drug

Investigational drug(s) in this trial have shown anticancer activity in clinical trials

High burden on patient

The trial has a high burden on patients. An example would be a phase 1 trial with extra tumor biopsies and frequent pharmacokinetic blood draws.

Started >3 years ago

The trial was activated more than 3 years ago. This is not always bad but can indicate that the trial has less current treatments, or has had trouble getting enough patients to enroll due to other issues.

HealthScout AI summary: This trial enrolls adults with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma, metastatic colorectal cancer, or advanced solid tumors (including endometrial carcinoma) who have progressed after standard therapies, testing the investigational oral agent E7386—a CBP/β-catenin interaction inhibitor targeting the Wnt/β-catenin pathway—in combination with lenvatinib or standard chemotherapy. The current dose optimization phase randomizes endometrial carcinoma patients to E7386 plus lenvatinib, lenvatinib monotherapy, or physician’s choice.

IIT2022-05-Sankar-BELIEVE: Phase II Study of Bevacizumab in Combination With Chemoimmunotherapy and Maintenance Atezolizumab in Patients With Extensive Stage Small Cell Lung Cancer and Liver Metastases

Moderate burden on patient

The trial has a moderate burden on patients. An example would be a trial testing an IV drug, with scans every 8 weeks which would be more frequent than standard of care.

HealthScout AI summary: Adults with treatment-naïve extensive-stage small cell lung cancer and radiographic liver metastases receive carboplatin/etoposide plus atezolizumab (anti–PD-L1) and bevacizumab (anti–VEGF) for 4 cycles, followed by maintenance atezolizumab/bevacizumab. Includes ECOG 0–2, measurable disease, and allows selected stable/asymptomatic brain metastases; excludes significant bleeding/thromboembolic risk, uncontrolled hypertension, recent major surgery, active autoimmune disease requiring therapy, and active HBV.

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT05588388

Evaluating Length of Treatment With PD-1/PD-L1 Inhibitor in Advanced Solid Tumors

Low burden on patient

The trial has a low burden on patients. An example would be a trial testing an oral drug, with scans every 12 weeks which would be similar to standard of care.

Started >3 years ago

The trial was activated more than 3 years ago. This is not always bad but can indicate that the trial has less current treatments, or has had trouble getting enough patients to enroll due to other issues.

HealthScout AI summary: Adults with advanced solid tumors (e.g., NSCLC, melanoma, RCC, urothelial, HNSCC, MSI-H/dMMR cancers, TNBC, HCC, gastric/GEJ, cervical, anal, Merkel cell) who have at least stable disease after ~12 months of PD-1/PD-L1 therapy (pembrolizumab, nivolumab, atezolizumab, durvalumab, or avelumab) are randomized to discontinue therapy versus continue until progression. Compares de-escalation after 1 year to ongoing checkpoint blockade to evaluate disease control, time to next treatment, and safety.
