New drug combo shows promise in keeping liver cancer at bay after surgery

NCT ID NCT05367687

Summary

This study tested whether adding a second drug (rivoceranib) to an immunotherapy drug (camrelizumab) works better than the immunotherapy alone at preventing liver cancer from returning after surgery or ablation. The trial involved 251 patients who had their liver cancer removed but were at high risk of it coming back. Researchers compared how long patients remained cancer-free between the two treatment groups.
