Recruiting PHASE2 Hepatocellular Carcinoma

New treatment option for Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Official title Therasphere® and Systemic Therapy for Patients With Hepatocellular Carcinoma That is High-risk

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT05620771

What this study is testing

What is Y90 + Atezolizumab and Bevacizumab?

Y90 + Atezolizumab and Bevacizumab is an investigational medicine, given as an infusion into a vein, being studied as a potential treatment for hepatocellular carcinoma.

Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.

What it's testing
The purpose of this research is to compare progression free survival between two available systemic therapies - immunotherapy and tyrosine kinase inhibitors - after Therasphere® (yttrium-90) treatment in adult patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma. The immunotherapy consists of a standard-of-care treatment with Atezolizumab and Bevacizumab.
