Filter by:Case control Study to assess the difference of immune cell responses between patients with chronic HCV- related liver cirrhosis who develop HCC after treatment with DAAs and those who do not develop HCC
The present study has been developed with multiple aims: 1) to refine available models for liver transplantation which would be able to cover the fate of HCC candidates from an ITT point of view; 2) to develop such an approach on cohorts coming from both Eastern and Western countries; 3) to maintain simplicity of use; 4) to provide individual prognostication taking into account different causes of death, through a competing-risk model; 5) to provide an external validation on cohorts coming from both Eastern and Western countries. All these aims converge at providing a comprehensive and useful assessment suitable for both candidates selection and allocation priority.
Liver resection has improved health outcomes in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in Singapore and worldwide. However, due to acute ischaemia/reperfusion injury (IRI) to the liver at the time of surgery, patients still experience significant morbidity and mortality. Therefore, novel therapies are required to protect the liver against acute IRI during partial hepatectomy. Remote ischaemic conditioning (RIC) using transient limb ischaemia/reperfusion has been shown to protect the liver in experimental animal studies. In the ERIC-LIVER trial the investigators investigate whether RIC can reduce liver injury and preserve liver function in patients with HCC undergoing partial hepatectomy.
Numerous studies found that anesthetic methods can influence the recurrence of tumor and the overall survival of patients after primary cancer surgery. Radiofrequency (RF) ablation is now widely used in clinic for treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Currently, diverse anesthetic methods, including general anesthesia (GA), epidural anesthesia and local anesthesia (LA), are used for RF ablation surgery. Using serum from HCC surgery patients randomized to receive either GA or LA during surgery, we investigated the effects of anesthetic methods on proliferation, migration and metastasis in HepG2 hepatic cancer cells in vitro.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of ex vivo expanded autologous immune killer cells in treating hepatocellular carcinoma patients in： 1. Reduction of tumor size 2. Reducing the relapse rate: Reducing the frequency of TACE treatment by IKC injections.
This is an Asian multi-regional clinical trial (MRCT) in which ATG-008 will be administered orally to hepatitis B positive (HBV+) HCC subjects who have received at least one prior line of systemic therapy. It is designed as an open-label phase 2 trial evaluating the pharmacokinetics (PK), safety, tolerability and efficacy of oral ATG-008 administered daily until the radiologic disease progression (according to RECIST 1.1) or intolerable toxicity.
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the most commonly malignant tumors around the world. Hepatic resection or liver transplantation is the radical method to cure the disease. However, due to large tumors, surgical treatment is suitable for early-stage and well-reserved liver function patients. Therefore, in clinical practice, transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) is a preferential and standard treatment of potentially resectable HCC. EACH trial opened the door to FOLFOX-based system chemotherapy for advanced HCC patients. Recently, investigators have showed that hepatic arterial infusion of FOLFOX-based chemotherapy (HAIC) was safe and efficient for HCC patients. Several clinical studies showed that HAIC bring better tumor response rate that the conditional TACE. The combination of TACE with HAIC (TACE-HAIC), theoretically can significantly increase the local doses of chemotherapeutic agents in the liver, reduce the viability of HCC cells and increase the hepatectomy rate. However, this hasn't been verified in clinical application. To identify a more effective and safety way for treating potentially resectable HCC patients, this study is designed to compare the safety and efficacy between HAIC and TACE-HAIC for those patients.
Hepatocellular carcinoma is one the leading cause of increasing cancer-specific mortality worldwide. Early diagnosis of hepatocellular carcinoma provides opportunity for curative therapeutic approaches and relatively favorable prognosis. Herein, we intended to establish a biosignature for early diagnosis of hepatocellular carcinoma and stratification of risk population for intensive follow-up by implementing biannual follow-up investigation and collecting peripheral blood samples for screening.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of cabozantinib in Japanese participants with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) who have received prior systemic anticancer therapy.
This is a single arm, non-randomized, single center study to evaluate ablation, oncologic outcomes and safety in the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma.
