Summary

This trial is designed to study new treatments for advanced liver cancer. It is open-label, meaning that participants and researchers will know which treatment is being received, and it is multicenter, meaning that it will be conducted at multiple research sites. The trial is also randomized, meaning that participants will be assigned to different treatment groups by chance.

Who is the study for?
Adults with advanced liver cancer (HCC) who haven't had systemic therapy can join this trial. They must have measurable disease, proper organ function, and no HIV or active hepatitis. Participants need to agree to use contraception and should not have a history of certain medical conditions like severe allergies or autoimmune diseases.
What is being tested?
The study tests multiple immunotherapy combinations including RO7247669 at different doses, Bevacizumab, ADG126, Atezolizumab, Tiragolumab, Tocilizumab, TPST-1120 for effectiveness and safety in treating liver cancer. It's flexible to adapt as new treatments emerge or existing ones show minimal benefit or high toxicity.
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects include immune reactions that may cause inflammation in organs like the liver or lungs; infusion-related reactions; fatigue; blood disorders; increased risk of infections; digestive issues such as nausea and diarrhea.
