ClinicalTrials ID:NCT07174570

This clinical trial is exploring a new treatment combination using celecoxib, durvalumab, and tremelimumab to see if it can help control advanced or metastatic liver cancer. The study aims to determine the effectiveness and safety of this combination therapy.

Patient Parameters

Program Overview

This study is testing a combination of three drugs—celecoxib, durvalumab, and tremelimumab—to see if they can work together to treat liver cancer that has spread or is advanced. Celecoxib is a pain reliever that may also help stop cancer cells from growing. Durvalumab and tremelimumab are immunotherapy drugs that help the immune system attack cancer cells. The goal is to find out if this combination can better treat liver cancer that has spread or is advanced.

Description

The main goal of this study is to see how well the combination of celecoxib, durvalumab, and tremelimumab works in treating advanced liver cancer. Researchers also want to understand how safe this treatment is and how it affects the body.

Participants will take celecoxib by mouth twice a day and receive durvalumab and tremelimumab through an IV. The treatment cycles repeat every 28 days unless the cancer progresses or side effects become too severe. Throughout the study, participants will have regular blood tests and scans to monitor their health and the cancer's response to the treatment. Some participants may also have a tissue biopsy before starting the treatment.

After finishing the treatment, participants will have follow-up visits 30 days later and then every 12 weeks for up to two years to check on their health and any long-term effects of the treatment.
