NCT ID NCT07145385

What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting This study
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only

Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.

Summary

This study aims to find out how often a rare genetic condition called alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency (AATD) occurs in people who develop liver cancer (hepatocellular carcinoma) but do not have cirrhosis or other known causes like hepatitis or heavy drinking. Researchers will look back at medical records of 71 adults with this type of liver cancer to see if AATD is a hidden risk factor. The results could help identify a new cause for some liver cancers.
