NCT ID NCT04945720
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested a combination of an immunotherapy drug (durvalumab) and chemotherapy delivered directly to the liver (HAIC) in 30 adults with advanced liver cancer that had spread into the main portal vein. The goal was to see if the combination could improve one-year survival. Participants received the treatment as an open-label, single-arm regimen. The study is completed, and results will help determine if this approach is safe and effective for this difficult-to-treat condition.
