Description

Summary

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of atezolizumab and bevacizumab, or atezolizumab alone, as first-line treatment in participants with unresectable, locally advanced or metastatic hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) with Child-Pugh B7 or B8 cirrhosis.

Official Title

A Phase II, Open-Label, Multi-Cohort, Multicenter Study in Patients With Unresectable Hepatocellular Carcinoma and Child-Pugh B7 and B8 Cirrhosis

Details

This is a Phase II, open-label, multicohort, multicenter study in participants with unresectable, locally advanced, or metastatic hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) who have Child-Pugh B7 or B8 liver cirrhosis and have received no prior systemic therapy in this treatment setting. The study is designed to non-comparatively evaluate the safety and efficacy of atezolizumab plus bevacizumab (Cohort A) or atezolizumab monotherapy (Cohort B) in this population.
