What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Pathological response rate

    CPR,MPR

    Measured: Up to 2 months

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Objective response rate

    ORR is defined as the percentage of participants who achieved CR or PR

    Measured: up to 2 months

  2. Percentage of R0 resection

    Used for assessment of the feasibility of the neoadjuvant therapy.

    Measured: up to 8 months

  3. Time to operation

    Used for assessment of the feasibility of the neoadjuvant therapy.

    Measured: up to 8 months

  4. Progression free survival

    Used for assessment of the efficacy.

    Measured: up to 3 years

  5. Overall survival

    Used for assessment of the efficacy.

    Measured: up to 3 years

  6. Incidence of adverse events

    Graded using the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events version 5.0. Safety will be recorded through the incidence of adverse events, serious adverse events and specific laboratory abnormalities (worst grade) in each treatment arm.

    Measured: up to 3 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing Toripalimab (JS001 ) and Toripalimab (JS001 ) Lenvatinib in people with Hepatocellular Carcinoma, run by Shanghai Junshi Bioscience Co., Ltd. at 1 site in China.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 0 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 29 Nov 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this combined phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study was stopped early (reason given: Enrollment is over, the study was completed). Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Pathological response rate (time frame: Up to 2 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03867370, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 29 Nov 2023.
