First seen Nov 21, 2025 · Last updated Apr 29, 2026 · Updated 19 times

Summary

This early-stage study tested a new drug (TQB2223) combined with an immunotherapy (penpulimab) in 22 people with advanced liver cancer. The goal was to see if the combination could shrink tumors or slow the disease. The trial was terminated early, so results are limited. Participants had to be in relatively good health despite advanced cancer.
