New hope for liver cancer: targeted drug ABSK-011 enters phase 2 trial

NCT ID NCT07327034

First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study tests a new drug called ABSK-011 for people with advanced liver cancer that has not responded to prior treatments. The drug targets a specific protein (FGF19) found in some tumors. About 141 participants will receive either ABSK-011 plus standard care or a placebo plus standard care to see if the drug helps shrink tumors or slow cancer growth.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
ABSK-011
What this could lead to
If it works, this could offer a new treatment option for people with advanced liver cancer who have a specific genetic marker (FGF19 overexpression).
What could go wrong
This is an early Phase 2 trial with only 141 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The drug may not shrink tumors or improve survival, and side effects are still being studied.
