Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety of atezolizumab and bevacizumab, or atezolizumab alone, as first-line treatment in participants with unresectable, locally advanced or metastatic hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) with Child-Pugh B7 or B8 cirrhosis.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This is a Phase II, open-label, multicohort, multicenter study in participants with unresectable, locally advanced, or metastatic hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) who have Child-Pugh B7 or B8 liver cirrhosis and have received no prior systemic therapy in this treatment setting. The study is designed to non-comparatively evaluate the safety of atezolizumab plus bevacizumab (Cohort A) or atezolizumab monotherapy (Cohort B) in this population.
