Summary

This phase 2 trial is testing whether a combination of Icaritin soft capsules and a liver-directed chemotherapy infusion (mFOLFOX) can prevent hepatocellular carcinoma from coming back after surgery in patients with high-risk features. About 30 participants will receive the treatment for up to a year. The study tracks how long patients stay cancer-free and their overall survival.

What this could mean

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

Active substance

Icaritin soft capsules and mFOLFOX chemotherapy (oxaliplatin, leucovorin calcium, 5-fluorouracil)

What this could lead to

If it works, this combination could help prevent liver cancer from coming back after surgery in patients at high risk of recurrence.

What could go wrong

This is a small, early-phase trial with only 30 participants and no comparison group, so results may not be conclusive. The chemotherapy and Icaritin can cause side effects like nausea, fatigue, and liver issues.
