Treatment Arms

ArmTypeDescription
Durvalumab + zanzalintinibEXPERIMENTALParticipants will receive treatment regimen of durvalumab and zanzalintinib. Each treatment cycle is 28 days. Participants will continue to receive treatment until disease progression, death, or other reasons for withdrawal.
Treatment (Y-90, tremelimumab, durvalumab, zanzalintinib)EXPERIMENTALCYCLE 1: Patients receive tremelimumab IV and durvalumab IV, over 60 minutes, on day 1. 7-14 days later patients undergo transarterial radioembolization with Y-90 in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. 7 days to 12 weeks later patients proceed to cycle 2. CYCLE 2-12: Patients receive durvalumab IV, over 30-60 minutes, on day 1 and zanzalintinib PO QD on days 1-28 of each cycle. Cycles repeat every 28 days for 12 cycles in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients undergo angiogram during screening and undergo SPECT, CT scan or MRI, and blood and urine sample collection throughout the study. Patients optionally undergo tumor biopsy throughout the study.

Frequently asked questions about Durvalumab

What is Durvalumab used for in hepatocellular carcinoma?

Durvalumab is being studied for the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma, including locally advanced and unresectable forms of the disease. It is an investigational antibody being evaluated in combination with other agents in clinical trials for patients with advanced liver cancer.

What does Durvalumab target?

Durvalumab is a monoclonal antibody that targets PD-L1, a protein that helps cancer cells evade the immune system. By blocking PD-L1, Durvalumab may enhance the immune system's ability to fight cancer cells.

Who is developing Durvalumab?

Durvalumab is being developed by Exelixis, Inc., a biopharmaceutical company traded on the NASDAQ under the ticker symbol EXEL. The company is investigating the drug in combination with other therapies for hepatocellular carcinoma.

What phase is Durvalumab in for hepatocellular carcinoma?

Durvalumab is currently in Phase 2 clinical trials for the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma. The drug is investigational and has not yet been approved for this indication, as it is still undergoing clinical development.

What clinical trials is Durvalumab in for hepatocellular carcinoma?

Durvalumab is being evaluated in two Phase 2 trials. NCT07226063 studies maintenance therapy with zanzalintinib and durvalumab in advanced hepatocellular cancer. NCT07511504 combines Y-90 radioembolization, durvalumab, tremelimumab, and zanzalintinib for unresectable and locally advanced hepatocellular carcinoma.

Is Durvalumab the same as Imfinzi?

Durvalumab is the generic name for the drug marketed as Imfinzi. In the clinical trials for hepatocellular carcinoma, the drug is referred to as durvalumab, which is the same active ingredient as Imfinzi.
