Summary

This study tests a program where patients with liver cancer meet with a navigator who helps them connect to medical and community resources. The goal is to understand patient needs and improve access to care and research participation. Adults with hepatocellular carcinoma or other liver cancers can join.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Target Navigation Pilot Program
What this could lead to
If successful, this program could improve access to care and clinical research for liver cancer patients, especially those from underserved communities.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage behavioral study, so results may not apply broadly. It focuses on feasibility and patient experience, not a direct treatment effect.

Expected to finish

Oct 2026

An estimate. End dates often move.

Lead sponsor

Other sponsor

The registry's catch-all category, for sponsors it does not file as a company, a government agency, or a research network.

Who can take part

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * HCC Patients: * Enrolled or eligible for enrollment in Unified Prospective Registry and Biorepository of Patients with Chronic Liver Disease or Hepatobiliary Cancers Including Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC) and Cholangiocarcinoma. * Diagnosis of hepatocellular carcinoma, confirmed by clinical chart review and International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision (ICD-10) C22.0. * Adults, age 18 or older * Able to provide informed consent * All other interviewees: * Advocates who will self-identify as having had HCC. * Others who self-identify as either a caregiver or support person of an HCC patient. Physicians/Licensed Independent Practitioners, Social Workers, Nurse Navigators, and Research Coordinators will all self-identify as being involved in the care of HCC patients. Exclusion Criteria: * Unable to speak Spanish or English * West Haven Grade 2 or higher hepatic encephalopathy19 or other cognitive impairment. * Adults unable or unwilling to consent * Individuals who are not yet adults (infants, children, teenagers) * Prisoners * Given that this study is minimal risk and there are no risks to a potential fetus, investigators will not exclude pregnant women; however, no data about pregnancy or their fetus is being collected
