NCT ID NCT07324304

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This phase 2 trial tests a DNA vaccine called NWRD06 in 30 people with a specific type of liver cancer (GPC3-positive) who have had surgery to remove their tumors. The vaccine is given as a shot followed by a mild electric pulse to help it enter cells. The goal is to see if it can keep the cancer from coming back for at least 72 weeks.

Active substance

NWRD06 DNA plasmid vaccine

What this could lead to

If successful, this could help prevent liver cancer from coming back after surgery, offering a new way to control the disease.
