Hepatocellular Carcinoma study: BAY

Official title A First-in-human Study to Learn About the Safety of BAY 3547926 and How Well it Works in Participants With Advanced Liver Cancer

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06764316

What this study is testing

What is BAY 3547926?

This is an investigational antibody conjugate being studied as a potential treatment for advanced hepatocellular carcinoma. It is designed to deliver a radioactive agent directly to cancer cells to damage them.

Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment. It is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.

What it's testing
The study aims to find the safest and most effective dose of BAY 3547926 and to see how the drug behaves in the body. It also looks at how well the drug can kill cancer cells using a small amount of radiation.
Who it's for
Adults with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (a type of liver cancer) that expresses the Glypican 3 protein.
What's involved
Participants will receive different doses of the drug in the first part of the study. After the safe dose is found, more people will get the drug alone or with other treatments. Throughout the study, doctors will do health checks, scans, and collect blood and urine samples, and ask about side effects.
Time commitment
The study lasts several months, with multiple clinic visits for dosing, monitoring, and testing. The exact number of visits depends on the study part the participant is in.
