NCT07328009

Brief Summary

This is a phase II, multi-arm, Bayesian adaptive platform trial designed to efficiently evaluate novel therapies for advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) after first-line treatment failure. The study aims to rapidly identify the most effective investigational regimens and discover predictive biomarker signatures (from tumor tissue, blood, and imaging) to guide personalized second-line therapy.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Objective Response Rate (ORR) evaluated by the investigator per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors Version 1.1

    ORR is defined as the percentage of participants who have a confirmed complete response (CR: disappearance of all target lesions) or partial response (PR: at least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum of diameters). Responses are according to RECIST 1.1 as assessed by investigator.
