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 Visugromab RDE (recommended dose for expansion), Nivolumab, or Lenvatinib. The registry lists allocation as randomized. This is a Phase 2b, randomly assigned, blinded clinical trial investigating the how well it works and safety of visugromab in combination with nivolumab and Lenvatinib compared to double dummy treatment (placebo) and Lenvatinib in participants with unresectable or metastatic HCC and compensated liver function (Child-Pugh A) after failure of 1L treatment that included an anti-PD-(L)1 compound.
They plan to enroll about 104 people at 29 sites. Taking part typically means taking a study drug (or dummy pill), an infusion or injection of a biologic plus check-ins.
