NCT ID NCT06311851

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

Summary

This early-phase trial is testing a new approach for people with liver metastases (cancer that has spread to the liver from elsewhere). Doctors are using a procedure called TACE to deliver the drug bevacizumab directly into the liver's blood vessels, aiming to concentrate the treatment where it's needed most. The study will enroll 40 participants to see if this method is safe and improves survival.

What this could mean

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

Active substance

Bevacizumab (a drug that slows blood vessel growth) delivered directly to liver tumors via a procedure called TACE

What this could lead to

If successful, this could offer a new treatment option for people with liver metastases that haven't responded to other therapies.

What could go wrong

This is an early pilot study with only 40 participants, so results may not apply broadly. The combination of bevacizumab and TACE is new and could have unexpected side effects.
