NCT ID NCT03143270
First seen May 16, 2026 · Last updated May 16, 2026
Summary
This early-stage study tests the safety of combining the immunotherapy drug nivolumab with a procedure called drug-eluting bead transarterial chemoembolization (deb-TACE) in 20 adults with advanced liver cancer. The approach delivers chemotherapy directly to the tumor while also activating the immune system. The main goal is to see what side effects occur and how well patients tolerate the combination.
