NCT ID NCT06698250

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

Summary

This Phase 2 trial is testing whether a combination of three drugs—zanzalintinib, durvalumab, and tremelimumab—can shrink tumors in people with advanced liver cancer that cannot be removed surgically. The study will enroll 40 participants who have not received prior systemic therapy. Researchers aim to find the best dose and measure how many patients respond to treatment.

Active substance

zanzalintinib (XL-092) combined with durvalumab (Imfinzi) and tremelimumab (Imjudo)

What this could lead to

If successful, this combination could offer a new treatment option for people with advanced liver cancer that cannot be removed by surgery.

What could go wrong

This is an early Phase 2 trial with only 40 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The drug combination may cause significant side effects or fail to shrink tumors.
