What are liver cancer clinical trials? — Expert Video

Medical oncologist Dr. Ghassan Abou-Alfa, MD, provides an overview of liver cancer clinical trials. Clinical trials are research studies in which people volunteer to test a new drug or treatment before it is available to the public or approved by the regulatory authorities. These trials play a crucial role in advancing ways to diagnose, treat, and prevent diseases like liver cancer. While participation remains low, Dr. Abou-Alfa emphasizes the importance of clinical trials as safe, well-designed opportunities that can benefit both current patients and future liver cancer care.
