About this study
Official title: A Phase II Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of GT90001 in Combination With Nivolumab as a Second-line Treatment in Subjects With Advanced Hepatocellular Carcinoma
This is a global phase II, open label study in the subjects with Advanced Hepatocellular Carcinoma (aHCC) who were intolerant or had progressed after or intolerant to first-line Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors (ICI) such as Atezolizumab plus Bevacizumab, or ICI plus Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor (TKI).
Based on published and first-hand experience with the safety and tolerability of both GT90001 and Nivolumab, the proposed dose is GT90001 7 mg/kg in combination with Nivolumab 240 mg, infusion every two weeks.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 2 study testing Nivolumab and GT90001 in people with Hepatocellular Carcinoma and HCC, run by Suzhou Kintor Pharmaceutical Inc, at 5 sites in United States.
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 7 inclusion and 19 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 Feb 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 5 sites in United States. 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 phase mean?
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?
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?
The Objective Response Rate (ORR) (confirmed) as evaluated by an Independent Review Committee (IRC) according to RECIST v1.1 (time frame: Approximately 2 years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
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 22 Feb 2024; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 7 Nov 2026.
