About This Trial

This study focuses on the treatment of liver metastases from three common cancers: colorectal cancer, triple-negative breast cancer and melanoma. Currently, there are limitations in the treatment of liver metastases of these cancers. Multimodal thermophysical ablation therapy can reshape the tumor microenvironment, release neoantigens, and act as an in-situ vaccine. On this basis, the combination of multimodal ablation with immunotherapeutic drugs such as pucotenlimab will be explored. The efficacy and safety of this combination therapy in patients with liver metastases of solid tumors will be investigated, with the expectation of breaking through the existing treatment limitations.

What Stage of Research Is This?

Phase 2 trials evaluate whether a treatment actually works against Triple Negative Breast Cancer Metastatic and continue monitoring side effects. Phase 2 enrolls larger groups (typically 100–300 patients) and produces the first real efficacy signal. A successful Phase 2 readout is what unlocks the much larger Phase 3 confirmatory trials needed for FDA approval.

This trial is currently recruiting participants. The sponsor has registered the study with ClinicalTrials.gov as actively enrolling, which means new applicants who meet the eligibility criteria can be considered for screening. Trial status can change between updates — confirm current recruiting status with the study contact before traveling for a screening visit.

Target enrollment of 95 participants puts this in the typical range for a Phase 2-style efficacy study or a moderate Phase 3 trial in a focused Triple Negative Breast Cancer Metastatic subpopulation. At this scale, the study has enough statistical power to detect a clear treatment effect but is not the largest cohort in the field.

Is participating in a clinical trial safe?

Clinical trials in the United States are regulated by the FDA and overseen by Institutional Review Boards (IRBs) that review the protocol for safety. Risk varies by trial — Phase 1 studies test new treatments in humans for the first time, while Phase 3 trials use treatments that have already passed earlier safety screening. The informed consent document for any specific trial details the known risks and what to expect. Discuss those risks with your physician before deciding whether to participate.
