Radical new approach: cutting out tumors after drugs for tough liver cancers

NCT ID NCT04649489

Summary

This study is for people with advanced liver cancer that has grown into major blood vessels. It tests if adding surgery to remove the tumor after initial drug therapy works better than continuing drugs alone. About 500 patients who respond well to the initial drugs will be randomly assigned to either have surgery followed by more drugs or to just continue the drug treatment. The goal is to see if this aggressive combined approach can better control the cancer and help patients live longer.
