Summary

This trial will test a new drug to treat advanced liver cancer after other treatments have failed. It will also study the drug combined with another medicine.

Who is the study for?
Adults with advanced liver cancer (HCC) who've had at least one prior systemic therapy can join. They must have measurable disease, certain blood and organ function levels, controlled hepatitis B or cured hepatitis C, and no severe heart issues. Pregnant women and those with other active cancers or recent major surgeries cannot participate.
What is being tested?
The trial has two parts: first testing Tegavivint alone in different doses for HCC patients after other treatments failed; second combining Tegavivint with Pembrolizumab to find the best dose. Participants are chosen based on specific genetic markers in their tumors.
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include immune system reactions, fatigue, digestive problems, skin changes, potential heart rhythm issues due to Tegavivint's effect on cells' signaling pathways. Pembrolizumab may cause similar immune-related side effects.
