Recruiting NA Hepatocellular Carcinoma

New treatment option for Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Official title A Study of the Application of HAIC in Advanced HCC Previously Treated With ICIs and Antiangiogenic Agents

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT05718492

What this study is testing

What is FOLFOX (oxaliplatin , leucovorin , fluorouracil , and fluorouracil )?

FOLFOX (oxaliplatin , leucovorin , fluorouracil , and fluorouracil ) 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
Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) plus antiangiogenic agents can achieve better efficacy than sorafenib in the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) within a certain period of time, but more than half of the patients are still insensitive to the treatment. There is no evidence-based basis for second-line treatment after the progression of the disease.In view of the effectiveness of Hepatic arterial infusion (HAIC) in the first-line treatment of HCC in the Chinese population, this study intends to launch a prospective intervention study to explore the efficacy and safety of HAIC treatment in patients with advanced HCC after the failure of ICIs and antiangiogenic agents combination therapy, and to provide high-level evidence for optimizing the second-line treatment of advanced HCC in the future.
