New treatment option for Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC)
Official title FOLFOX Combined With Durvalumab (MEDI4736), Bevacizumab, and Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy in Sequential Treatment of Potentially Resectable Locally Advanced Hepatocellular Carcinoma
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT07012798
What this study is testing
What is Durvalumab?
Durvalumab is an investigational medicine, given as an infusion into a vein, being studied as a potential treatment for hepatocellular carcinoma (hcc).
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
- Study Design: This is a pilot study with a single arm in a single centre assessing safety and efficacy of durvalumab in combination with bevacizumab and HAIC followed by SBRT. This study will be conducted in selected patients with intermediate or advanced stage HCC not amenable to curative therapy.
- Phase 2: a mid-size study of how well it works
A plain-language read of the study's public ClinicalTrials.gov listing. The study team confirms the details.
