Summary

This early-phase study tested whether combining donafinib with an anti-PD-1 antibody can safely prevent liver cancer from returning after surgery in patients at high risk of recurrence. 30 adults with hepatocellular carcinoma who had their tumor removed 4-8 weeks earlier took part. The goal was to see if this treatment could improve the one-year recurrence-free rate.
