Filter by:Estimate the maximum tolerated dose and/or recommended phase II dose and efficacy of FGF401 as single agent and in combination with PDR001 in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma and as single agent in patients with other solid malignancies based on RECIST 1.1.
The main purpose of this study is to collect the safety data of Sumitomo Heavy Industries' proton therapy equipment for the treatment of solid cancer patients in Linkou Chang Gung Memorial Hospital, including the patients' early-stage adverse reactions and the efficacy on tumors, as well as to assess the operating functionality of the proton therapy system.
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the 9th leading cause of cancer-related death in the US and one of the leading causes of death in patients with cirrhosis. Fewer than 1 in 5 high-risk patients undergo HCC screening, with lower rates in non-Caucasian and low socioeconomic status patients receiving care through safety-net health systems. Screening and follow-up failures lead to more advanced cancers, when curative therapies are not available and survival is significantly worse. Over 60% of HCC are diagnosed at advanced stages, due to poor recognition of high-risk patients, underuse of screening among these patients, and poor follow-up of abnormal screening tests. To address these barriers, the investigators propose to conduct a comparative effectiveness research randomized controlled trial of three screening strategies among a socioeconomically disadvantaged and racially diverse cohort of cirrhotic patients at high risk for developing HCC. Overall, 1800 patients attending Parkland, the Dallas safety-net health system, will be randomized to: - Group 1: Usual care, with visit-based HCC screening per discretion of individual providers - Group 2: Mailed HCC screening invitation outreach to eligible patients (low resource intensity) - Group 3: Mailed HCC screening invitation outreach to eligible patients combined with centralized patient navigation to promote screening completion and follow-up (high resource intensity) Through three specific aims, this effectiveness research randomized controlled trial will: - Aim 1: Engage stakeholders in design and implementation of HCC screening outreach interventions. - Aim 2: Compare the clinical effectiveness and patient acceptability of the intervention strategies to increase completion of one-time and repeat HCC screening. - Aim 3: Evaluate whether intervention effects are moderated by patient sex, race, ethnicity, English proficiency, and connectedness to primary care. The screening intervention strategies combine EMR-enabled case identification, system-level screening outreach, and patient navigation to improve identification of previously unrecognized cirrhotic patients, promote HCC screening completion, and facilitate follow-up of abnormal screening tests. This study will engage stakeholders throughout the research process, evaluate the effectiveness and acceptability of HCC screening strategies, and determine which patient subgroups benefit the most.
The administration of SIR-Spheres microspheres (yttrium-90 resin microspheres) is a form of selective internal radiation therapy (SIRT) for the treatment of patients with primary and secondary liver tumours. The primary objective is to observe the real-life clinical application of radioembolisation with SIR-Spheres and the impact of the treatment in clinical practice. Secondary objectives are to observe safety and effectiveness of SIR-Spheres treatment in terms of adverse events, Overall Survival (OS), Progression-free survival (PFS), technical considerations, liver PFS and Quality of Life (QoL) + subgroup analyses
The main purpose of this study is to see whether the combination of trametinib and sorafenib can help people with hepatocellular cancer. Researchers also want to find out if the combination of trametinib and sorafenib is safe and tolerable.
This project investigates the feasibility of assessing the relative blood volume of carcinomas in patients with Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC) and liver metastases from pancreatic or colorectal cancer compared to normal liver from DynaCT acquisitions on an interventional platform.
This is an open label, three-arm, phase 1 dose escalation study and phase 2 study of BBI608 in combination with sorafenib, or BBI503 in combination with sorafenib. The study population is adult patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma who have not received systemic chemotherapy.
This pilot phase I/II trial studies the best dose of erlotinib hydrochloride and to see how well it works in preventing liver cancer in patients with scarring (cirrhosis) of the liver. Erlotinib hydrochloride may help to inhibit the development of fibrous tissue and prevent liver cancer from forming in patients with cirrhosis of the liver.
This surveillance's objectives are: 1. Unknown adverse reactions 2. Incidences of adverse drug reaction 3. Factors considered to have effect to safety and effectiveness
60 patients of radiological, biopsy proven advanced HCC (Hepatocellular carcinoma) patient will be randomized into two groups. Cases group will receive Sorafenib plus vitamin K and control group will receive Sorafenib plus placebo
