Study Summary

This trial is studying the effectiveness of two different antibodies in treating liver cancer.

Who is the study for?
Adults with advanced liver cancer who haven't had systemic therapy can join this trial. They need good kidney function, controlled hepatitis if present, and at least one measurable tumor. They must not have severe lung conditions or be on recent immunosuppressants, live vaccines, or have other active cancers (with some exceptions). Pregnant women are excluded.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial is testing the combination of two immune system-boosting drugs: TSR-022 (cobolimab) and TSR-042 (dostarlimab), to see if they help the body fight liver cancer better together than existing treatments.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include immune-related reactions that could affect various organs, infusion-related symptoms like fever or chills, fatigue, potential blood abnormalities, and increased risk of infections due to immune system changes.

Frequently Asked Questions

These questions and answers are submitted by anonymous patients, and have not been verified by our internal team.

Are there any opportunities for volunteers to join this research study?

"The information available on clinicaltrials.gov states that this trial is searching for participants at present; the initial post date was December 19th 2019 and it was most recently updated October 21st 2022."

Answered by AI

Have any previous experiments been conducted with TSR-022 and TSR-042?

"In 2010, the City of Hope conducted initial studies on TSR-022 and TSR-042. Since then, one complete trial has been concluded with 40 ongoing trials being carried out predominantly in Honolulu."

Answered by AI

To what extent could TSR-022 and TSR-042 pose a threat to patient safety?

"Due to its status as a Phase 2 trial, our team at Power judged TSR-022 and TSR-042's safety level to be a 2. This is because there are some data points regarding the drugs' general safety but no evidence yet of their efficacy."

Answered by AI

What goals are being sought through this research endeavor?

"The primary objective, as reported by GlaxoSmithKline and measured over a 36 month period from initial treatment until the best documented response is Objective Response Rate. Additionally, secondary objectives such as irRC (Objective response based on immune related Response Criteria), Progression free survival (Time from treatment to cancer progression or death) and Duration of Response (Time from tumor response to progression) will also be evaluated."

Answered by AI

How many volunteers are involved in this experiment?

"Affirmative. Clinicaltrials.gov data verifies that this investigation, initially posted on December 19th 2019, is currently enrolling individuals in the trial. 42 subjects will be recruited from two distinct medical locations."
