New combo therapy trial for tough liver cancers halted early

NCT ID NCT05171166

Summary

This study aimed to see if adding a specific type of chemotherapy directly into the liver's blood vessels (HAIC) before a standard artery-blocking treatment (TACE) and a targeted drug (donafenib) works better than just TACE plus the drug. It was for people with a specific advanced stage of liver cancer that cannot be removed by surgery. The trial was stopped early after enrolling only 18 of a planned 156 participants.
