Study Summary

This trial aims to test a new combination of three drugs for treating liver cancer. The study will determine safe doses of the drugs and evaluate their effectiveness in improving patient outcomes compared to the current standard treatment.

Who is the study for?
Adults over 18 with advanced-stage liver cancer (HCC) confirmed by biopsy, who can't have or haven't improved with surgery or local treatments. They should be relatively active (ECOG ≤2), have a life expectancy of at least 12 weeks, and not be dealing with other serious cancers. Their liver must still work fairly well (Child-Pugh A or B7), and they need to have at least one measurable tumor that hasn’t been treated.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial is testing a new combination of three drugs: sorafenib, sonidegib, and irinotecan. It aims to find safe doses for these drugs when used together in liver cancer patients. The study will use AI to personalize drug dosing for each patient to maximize benefits while reducing side effects. Success will be measured by looking at changes in ctDNA levels in the blood and how well patients tolerate treatment.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include damage to organs due to toxicity from the medications, which could affect how well they function. Patients might also experience general discomforts like nausea or fatigue as their bodies react to the drug combination.
