A Phase I/II Study of RAD001 in Advanced Hepatocellular Carcinoma
In Brief
A Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating RAD001 for Hepatocellular Carcinoma. Completed, enrolled 28 participants across 3 sites.
Detailed Summary
Laboratory studies have shown that RAD001 can prevent cells from multiplying. Consequently, the study drug is being tested in medical conditions in which excessive cell multiplication (as in cancer) needs to be stopped. The main purpose of this research study is to find the highest dose of RAD001 that can be given safely (without causing severe side effects) and to learn the effects (good or bad) RAD001 has on participants with liver cancer.
