New combo aims to control resistant liver cancer
NCT ID NCT05718882
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested whether adding an experimental drug (VIC-1911) to the standard drug lenvatinib could help people with liver cancer that no longer responds to lenvatinib alone. Only 5 people were enrolled before the study was stopped early. The goal was to see if the combination could slow cancer growth and improve survival, but results are limited due to the small size.
