OUTREACH2 Trial Summary

This trial is testing an experimental treatment (MTL-CEBPA) in combination with a standard of care treatment (sorafenib) in patients with advanced liver cancer (hepatocellular carcinoma) as a result of hepatitis B and/or C infection.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with advanced liver cancer due to hepatitis B/C, who have a life expectancy of over 3 months and are not suitable for surgery or liver transplant. They should be new to tyrosine kinase inhibitors like sorafenib and must have normal organ function tests. Pregnant women, those with severe liver impairment (Child-Pugh B/C), recent serious cardiovascular issues, other active cancers, or known allergies to the drugs tested cannot participate.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study compares two approaches: one group receives MTL-CEBPA via IV every three weeks plus oral Sorafenib starting Day 8; the other gets only Sorafenib from Day 1. The goal is to see if adding MTL-CEBPA improves outcomes in hepatocellular carcinoma patients who've had hepatitis B/C.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects include reactions at the infusion site for MTL-CEBPA, as well as common drug-related risks such as fatigue, digestive problems, skin reactions and high blood pressure from Sorafenib. Previous studies suggest that combining these treatments has an acceptable safety profile.
