Hepatocellular Carcinoma study: AZD9793 Intravenous vs AZD9793 Subcutaneous
Official title First in Human Study to Evaluate AZD9793 in Participants With Advanced or Metastatic Solid Tumours
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06795022
What this study is testing
What is AZD9793?
an investigational intravenous antibody being studied as a potential treatment for hepatocellular carcinoma is designed to bind the GPC3 protein on tumor cells and engage T cells to attack those cells
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
- This study is testing whether AZD9793, a lab-made antibody that targets GPC3, is safe and works against advanced liver cancer.
- Who it's for
- You may be able to join if you have advanced or metastatic liver cancer that tests positive for GPC3.
- What's involved
- You would receive AZD9793 through an IV. You will have doctor visits and tests to check safety and any effect.
- Time commitment
- The study lasts several months with regular visits during treatment and follow‑up.
- Phase 2: a mid-size study of how well it works
A plain-language read of the study's public ClinicalTrials.gov listing. The study team confirms the details.
