About this study
This is a single-arm, phase II study of patients with advanced liver cancer or hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) who are eligible for first-line treatment with T300+D. The invesitgators hypothesize that T300+D will be safe and tolerated in CP-B patients with HCC. HCC mostly affects disadvantaged populations with higher rates among racial/ethnic minorities, who are often not included in clinical trials (i.e., Hispanics, Blacks, underserved, low socioeconomic status) and present with more severe disease. Given there is not much data in the US patient cohort, this study provides a chance to gain that knowledge.

You may qualify if…
- ✓ 1. Patients diagnosed with HCC based on pathologic diagnosis from biopsy or radiographic diagnosis on CT liver or MRI liver (i.e., Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer (BCLC) stage B and not candidate for locoregional therapies or BCLC stage C)10
- ✓ 2. Patients with Child-Pugh-B7 or -B8 liver cirrhosis11
- ✓ 3. ECOG performance status score 0-1
- ✓ 4. Patients with Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) infection are required to receive effective antiviral therapy and have a viral load less than 500 IU/mL at screening; antiviral therapy is not required for patients with Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) infection.
- ✓ 5. Adequate organ and bone marrow function:
- ✓ 1. Absolute neutrophil counts ≥1000/uL
- ✓ 2. Platelets ≥60 × 100/uL
- ✓ 3. Hemoglobin ≥8.0 g/dL
You may not qualify if…
- ✕ 1. Patients who are candidates for curative treatments
- ✕ 2. History of uncontrolled hepatic encephalopathy in the past 6 months; patients who are stable on medical therapy are eligible.
- ✕ 3. Active substance abuse or alcohol abuse at the time of consent or enrollment, which in the opinion of the treating physician would interfere with the safety of the patient and/or adherence to the study protocol.
- ✕ 4. Participants must not have a prior or concurrent malignancy whose natural history or treatment (in the opinion of the treating physician) has the potential to interfere with the safety or efficacy assessment of the investigational regimen.
- ✕ 5. Prior systemic therapy for locally advanced or metastatic HCC
- ✕ 6. Participation in another clinical study with an investigational product during the last 1 month.
- ✕ 7. Concurrent enrolment in another clinical study, unless it is an observational (non-interventional) clinical study or during the follow-up period of an interventional study.
- ✕ 8. Any concurrent chemotherapy, IP, biologic, or hormonal therapy for cancer treatment. Concurrent use of hormonal therapy for non-cancer-related conditions (e.g., hormone replacement therapy) is acceptable. \<\<amend as required based on any combination studies with other anticancer agents\>\>
