What this phase means
Phase 2: researchers already know a roughly safe dose (from phase 1). This stage asks whether the treatment actually helps the condition, and watches side effects more closely.
Phase labels are FDA/ICH categories applied to the registry Phase field. They are not a finding that this study succeeded.
What the registry says happens
If you join, the listed intervention(s) are Biospecimen Collection, Cabozantinib S-malate, or Imaging Procedure. The registry lists allocation as randomized. This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of sapanisertib when given together with cabozantinib, and to see how well they work in treating patients with liver cancer that has spread from where it first started to other places in the body (metastatic) and contains a mutation (change) in the β-catenin gene.
They plan to enroll about 92 people at 4 sites. Taking part typically means taking a study drug (or dummy pill), a procedure as part of the study plus check-ins.
