Clinical Trials for Liver Cancer

A Pilot Study of a DNAJB1-PRKACA Fusion Kinase Peptide Vaccine Combined With Nivolumab and Ipilimumab for Patients With Fibrolamellar Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Started >3 years ago

The trial was activated more than 3 years ago. This is not always bad but can indicate that the trial has less current treatments, or has had trouble getting enough patients to enroll due to other issues.

No known activity

No investigational drug(s) in this trial have shown anticancer activity yet in clinical trials

High burden on patient

The trial has a high burden on patients. An example would be a phase 1 trial with extra tumor biopsies and frequent pharmacokinetic blood draws.

TrialFetch AI summary: For patients ≥12 years with unresectable/metastatic fibrolamellar hepatocellular carcinoma or adults with other solid tumors harboring the DNAJB1‑PRKACA fusion, including checkpoint‑naïve and some checkpoint‑experienced FLC cohorts. Treatment combines an off‑the‑shelf DNAJB1‑PRKACA junction neoepitope peptide vaccine (adjuvanted with TLR1/2 agonist XS15) with nivolumab (PD‑1 inhibitor) and ipilimumab (CTLA‑4 inhibitor) to augment vaccine‑primed T‑cell responses; a re‑enrollment option may use nivolumab plus vaccine if prior CTLA‑4 toxicity.

An Open-Label, Dose Escalation, Phase I/II Clinical Trial of ET140203 T Cells in Pediatric Subjects With Relapsed/Refractory Hepatoblastoma (HB), Hepatocellular Neoplasm-Not Otherwise Specified (HCN-NOS), or Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC)

The trial has a high burden on patients. An example would be a phase 1 trial with extra tumor biopsies and frequent pharmacokinetic blood draws.

TrialFetch AI summary: Pediatric and young adult patients (1–21 years) with relapsed/refractory, AFP-high (≥100 ng/mL), HLA-A2–positive hepatoblastoma, HCN-NOS, or HCC receive a single infusion of autologous ET140203 T cells after lymphodepletion. ET140203 (JWATM-203) is an engineered T-cell therapy using an ARTEMIS receptor with a TCR-mimic that targets AFP158–166/HLA-A*02:01 to selectively kill AFP+/HLA-A2+ liver cancer cells.
