View on ClinicalTrials.gov →
Summary
The HALT study aims to evaluate histotripsy in an Asian population for both primary (HCC, CCA) and secondary liver malignancies with liver-limited or oligoprogressive disease. In addition to safety and local control, the study incorporates translational endpoints including immune profiling (PBMCs, cytokines), microbiome shifts, and optional tumour biopsies. This trial will provide critical data on the feasibility, tolerability, and biological impact of histotripsy in a region with the highest burden of liver cancer.
