New hope to fight devastating weight loss in liver cancer

NCT ID NCT07356037

Summary

This study is testing whether adding a drug called nanocrystalline megestrol acetate to standard liver cancer treatment can help patients who are experiencing severe, disease-related weight loss and poor appetite. The goal is to see if this combination helps people eat better and gain weight compared to standard treatment alone. The trial will enroll 68 adults with a specific stage of liver cancer who are already experiencing or at risk for this debilitating weight loss.
