Study Title:
A PHASE III, RANDOMIZED, DOUBLE-BLIND, PLACEBO-CONTROLLED STUDY EVALUATING ATEZOLIZUMAB AND BEVACIZUMAB, WITH OR WITHOUT TIRAGOLUMAB, IN PATIENTS WITH UNTREATED LOCALLY ADVANCED OR METASTATIC HEPATOCELLULAR CARCINOMA
Study Objectives:

Primary outcome: 

1. To evaluate the efficacy of atezolizumab plus bevacizumab plus tiragolumab compared with atezolizumab plus bevacizumab

2.To evaluate the efficacy of atezolizumab plus bevacizumab plus tiragolumab compared with atezolizumab plus bevacizumab

 

Secondary outcome: 

1. To evaluate the efficacy of atezolizumab plus bevacizumab plus tiragolumab compared with atezolizumab plus bevacizumab

2. To evaluate the safety of atezolizumab plus bevacizumab plus tiragolumab compared with atezolizumab plus bevacizumab

3. To characterize the PK profile of atezolizumab plus bevacizumab plus tiragolumab

4. To evaluate the immune response to tiragolumab and atezolizumab

Laymans Summary:
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of tiragolumab, an anti-TIGIT monoclonal antibody, when administered in combination with atezolizumab and bevacizumab as first-line treatment, in participants with unresectable, locally advanced or metastatic hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Despite recent advances in the first-line treatment setting for patients with HCC, notably cancer immunotherapy (CIT)-based combination regimens, there remains a need for novel therapeutic approaches that target mechanisms of resistance to CIT and provide more durable clinical benefit and improve long-term survival outcomes. TIGIT is believed to play an important role in HCC pathogenesis and resistance to PD-1/PD-L1 blockade. The addition of tiragolumab to atezolizumab plus bevacizumab may augment anticancer immunity, thereby improving clinical outcomes.
