NCT ID NCT05537402
First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated Jun 19, 2026 · Updated 34 times
Summary
This study aimed to compare two standard treatments for people with large intermediate-stage liver cancer that cannot be surgically removed. One group would receive a combination of two immunotherapy drugs (atezolizumab and bevacizumab), while the other would receive local treatments like chemoembolization or radioembolization. The trial was terminated after enrolling only one participant, so no meaningful results were obtained.
