Liver cancer trial halted: drug combo vs. standard therapy

NCT ID NCT04777851

First seen Mar 24, 2026 · Last updated May 14, 2026 · Updated 7 times

Summary

This study aimed to see if a combination of two drugs (regorafenib and pembrolizumab) worked better than standard treatments (TACE or TARE) for people with intermediate-stage liver cancer. The trial was planned for about 496 participants but was stopped early, so only limited data is available. The goal was to slow cancer growth and improve survival.
