Program Overview
The study aims to find out if a single injection of IP-001 can help prevent the return of liver cancer (HCC) in patients who have already had surgery or ablation to remove the cancer. This treatment is being tested in patients who are at an intermediate or high risk of the cancer coming back.
Description
This is a Phase 2 study with two groups of patients. It is designed to test the safety and effectiveness of a single injection of IP-001 directly into the tumor area after patients have had surgery or ablation to treat liver cancer (HCC). The study is looking at whether this additional treatment can help prevent the cancer from returning in patients who are at a higher risk of recurrence.
