Key Inclusion Criteria:
- Confirmed diagnosis of HCC by histological examination or by non-invasive criteria according to European Association for the Study of the Liver (EASL) or American Association for the Study of Liver Disease (AASLD) guidelines (Part 1, 2 and 3).
- For Part 1 and 2, the patient has unresectable disease and has been previously treated with sorafenib, has declined treatment with sorafenib, or does not have access to sorafenib.

- For Part 1, willing to provide archived tumor tissue (if available) and willing to undergo pre- and on-treatment tumor biopsy (if considered safe and medically feasible by the treating investigator)
- For Part 2 and 3, all patients must have an FGF19 IHC result available. Only FGF19 IHC+ HCC patients will be eligible for Part 3.
