NCT ID NCT07239986
First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This Phase 2 trial tests BB102, a targeted drug that blocks a protein called FGFR4, in 60 adults with advanced liver cancer that has not responded to standard treatments. Participants must have a specific genetic marker (FGF19 overexpression). The study will measure how well the drug shrinks tumors and controls the disease, while monitoring safety.
