Condition: HCC · Racial Disparities · Sponsor: Indiana University
This study is a pilot, multi-center randomized controlled trial testing the HCC Liver-Link intervention, a culturally tailored, multi-level program designed to reduce racial disparities in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) care. The intervention combines: (1) patient education to improve HCC-related disease and treatment knowledge, (2) social needs and substance use screening with referral to social work and community resources, and (3) facilitated access to subspecialty cancer care through a multidisciplinary HCC tumor board. A total of 40 Black patients with Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer (BCLC) stage 0, A, or downstaged B disease will be randomized to receive either the HCC Liver-Link intervention or usual care and followed for 6 months or until liver transplant waitlisting. Primary outcomes are time to receipt of curative therapies (liver transplantation or resection) and change in HCC-related knowledge. Findings will inform development of larger interventions to eliminate racial disparities in HCC outcomes.
