Filter by:This is a Phase IIb, multicohort, open-label multicenter study of combination immunotherapies in patients who have previously received treatment with PD-1/PD-L1 immune checkpoint inhibitors. All patients in Cohorts 1-4 will receive the combination treatment of PD-1/PD-L1 checkpoint inhibitor plus N-803 for up to 17 cycles. Each cycle is six weeks in duration. Some patients who experience disease progression while on study in Cohorts 1-4 may roll over into Cohort 5 and receive combination therapy with a PD-1/PD-L1 checkpoint inhibitor, N-803, and PD-L1 t-haNK cellular therapy for up to an additional 17 cycles. Each cycle is six weeks in duration. All patients will receive N-803 once every 3 weeks. Patients will also receive the same checkpoint inhibitor that they received during their previous therapy. Radiologic evaluation will occur at the end of each treatment cycle. Treatment will continue for up to 2 years, or until the patient experiences confirmed progressive disease or unacceptable toxicity, withdraws consent, or if the Investigator feels it is no longer in the patient's best interest to continue treatment. Patients will be followed for disease progression, post-therapies, and survival through 24 months past administration of the first dose of study drug.
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most common primary liver cancer and is the third leading cause of cancer that related death in the worldwide. Although, current most of doctors and laboratorians of HCC diagnoses bases are medical imaging such ultrasound, MRI, CT-scan and laboratory analyses tests for serum tumor markers such as alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) which characterized by very low of sensitivity in the detection of HCC. Last two decades, scientists was focused researches of small molecules called MicroRNAs which are produced by human cells and can be released in the blood. MicroRNAs are class of (20 - 25 nucleotide in length) non-coding RNAs, and its emerging non-invasive diagnostic biomarker for cancer diagnosing, screening, monitoring treatment and to predict prognosis. A number of studies exposed an abnormal expression of human serum MicroRNAs in many tumors such as liver, pancreatic and colorectal carcinoma. Recently, MicroRNAs have a role in the development of HCC, but still it is unknown if these small molecules will be used as biomarker for diagnosis and survival of HCC. The aim of this study is to establish MicroRNAs as biomarkers for diagnostic tool of HCC patients and to compare to circulating levels of MicroRNAs in chronic liver diseases patients and health volunteers and those HCC patients and To determine the clinical utility of MicroRNAs as a diagnostic maker of hepatocellular carcinoma comparing with alpha fetoprotein the current marker of (HCC).
This phase II trial studies the side effects and how well nivolumab with or with ipilimumab works in treating patients with liver cancer that can be removed by surgery. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab and ipilimumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread.
Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC) is a major health concern in the United States, particularly among people with liver cirrhosis. Out of every 100 patients with liver cancer, only 18 will survive 5 years or more. While locoregional therapies are utilized in an effort to combat this disease, the recurrence rate of HCC after these therapies are high. Statins are widely used drugs that lower cholesterol levels. Some studies have suggested that statins lower risk of HCC recurrence, but this possibility has not been studied thoroughly in a clinical trial. This study will examine the effects of pravastatin, a type of statin, on time to HCC recurrence in patients with early stage HCC. It is possible that pravastatin in combination with locoregional therapies may delay or protect against HCC recurrence.
This phase I trial studies the best dose and side effects of tazemetostat in treating patients with solid tumors or B-cell lymphomas with liver dysfunction that have spread to other places in the body or cannot be removed by surgery. Tazemetostat may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.
Non-anatomical liver resection with appropriate resection margin was regarded as a potential curative treatment for selected major hepatic carcinoma due to preserving maximal normal liver, especially in cirrhotic patients. But occurrence of cutting surface related complications become a main challenge.
Many investigators have studied for prevention and care of Hand-Foot Skin Reaction(HFSR), and urea cream is typical representative. Recent study was performed prevention effect of urea cream for Hand-Foot Skin Reaction(HFSR) on 871 Chinese. But the study did not designed as placebo-control group and it had big defect in double-blinded. Therefore, it needs complementary study as double-blinded placebo-controlled trial and effect of urea cream on Korean patient group.
The purpose of this study is to determine the feasibility and safety of the Surefire Infusion System (SIS) for delivery of Drug Eluting Beads Transcatheter Chemoembolization (DEB-TACE) in the HCC population. This study will allow us to determine the effectiveness of SIS for HCC in terms of disease response.
This phase Ib/II trial studies how well sorafenib tosylate and pembrolizumab work in treating patients with liver cancer that has spread to other parts of the body. Sorafenib tosylate may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving sorafenib tosylate and pembrolizumab may work better in treating patients with liver cancer.
Hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC) is a high malignancy cancer which progress rapidly , and the rates of morbidity and mortality is very high in China. Radiotherapy as a effective treatment is commonly used in unresectable HCC patients. Preclinical models have shown that anti-angiogenesis medicine,such as rh-endostatin, can normalize the tumor vasculature to make it more efficient for oxygen delivery, which can enhance the radiosensitivity subsequently. This study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of rh-endostatin combined with radiotherapy in the treatment of HCC.
