Filter by:Early detection of hepatocellular carcinoma is vita to the prognosis of patient. In this study, the occurrence and development of liver cancer were supervised by imaging examination, and the dysplastic nodules will be distinguished from early hepatocellular carcinoma through macro-imaging and micro-pathological features.
This is an open, prospective, single-arm, multi-cohort clinical study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of surufatinib alone or combined with Anti-PD-1 mAb in the treatment of advanced Hepatocellular Carcinoma
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a prevalent malignancy with great disease burden both in Taiwan and worldwide 1. Early stage HCC can be treated by surgical resection, radiofrequency ablation, embolization and liver transplantation. However, treatments for advanced HCC are still unsatisfactory. Systemic therapy is necessary for advanced HCC 2. Target therapy using sorafenib was established a decade ago, but its response rate is quite low (~3%), the adverse effects may be intolerable and it can only extend survival 2.3 to 2.8 months 3,4. Newly developed tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) include regorafenib 5, lenvatinib 6, cabozantinib 7 and ramucirumab 8. The single target therapy objective response rate is around 3-24%. Recently, immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) emerged as a new hope for cancer therapy in various kinds of malignancies including HCC. These include CTLA4, PD-1 and PD-L1 blockades.
In Egypt, chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) is the most prevalent cause of hepatoma. The study aims to evaluate the percutaneous radiofrequency ablation (RFA) efficacy as monotherapy in intermediate versus early-stage hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The present study was a single-center, prospective non-randomized, controlled clinical trial in the Interventional Ultrasonography Unit, Tropical Medicine Department, Beni-Suef University Hospitals, between October 2018 and August 2021. Abdominal ultrasonography and triphasic computerized tomography (CT) abdomen were used to diagnose HCC. The abdominal ultrasonography and a dynamic CT scan were performed six weeks following the ablation to assess treatment efficacy.
The purpose of this real-world study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of lipiodol-TACE with idarubicin for hepatocellular carcinoma.
The purpose of this study is to id transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) in combination with immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) and molecular targeted therapies in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) .
1. To compare systemic neoadjuvant therapy (combination of immune checkpoint inhibitors and anti-angiogenic drugs (short for "targeted-immune therapy") combined with radiofrequency ablation (RFA) and RFA alone in the treatment of recurrent hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC) in 1-year recurrence-free survival (RFS) and overall survival (OS) 2. To evaluate the clinical value of systemic neoadjuvant therapy (i.e. immune checkpoint inhibitors and targeted therapy) combined with RFA in the treatment of recurrent HCC, as well as the safety and efficacy of this strategy.
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a rising public health concern with few curative options but liver transplantion (LT) in highly selected cases. LT could save many other HCC patients but organ shortage has lead to the necessity of selection of patients with the best survival chances, namely the Milan criteria. Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the fifth most common cancer, and the third cause of cancer related-death worldwide. HCC incidence is rising in Western countries including Belgium. There are more than 1,000 new HCC diagnoses in Belgium every year, but only 90 to 100 patients suffering from HCC are listed for liver transplantation (LT). In fact, the scarcity of organ donors has forced the development of strict criteria to limit LT to patients who are likely to have excellent outcomes. The universally accepted LT criteria for HCC are the Milan criteria (1 HCC nodule ≤5 cm or 3 nodules ≤3cm) that lead to a low rate of post-LT recurrence (>80% of disease free recurrence at 5 years). The majority of patients suffering from HCC outside the Milan criteria at the time of diagnosis is not eligible for LT and is therefore limited to palliative care. It is however considered that some of these patients with HCC outside the Milan criteria may benefit from LT with an acceptable risk of recurrence and chances of long-term disease-free survival (DFS). This fact has led to the extension of LT criteria for HCC in some centres in different countries, as for example the University of California San Francisco (UCSF) criteria, the up-to-seven criteria or the Asan criteria. The Belgian Liver-Intestine Allocation Committee (Be-LIAC) is a section of the Belgian Transplantation Society (BTS) composed of the 6 LT Belgian centres in charge of coordinating deceased LT activity in Belgium with the help of Eurotransplant. Be-LIAC has already built a retrospective HCC database that was successfully used for several scientific studies allowing international presentations and publications. Based on this successful experience, Be-LIAC is keen to continue with this national collaboration to initiate a prospective clinical observational database to better study the results of LT in Belgium and to evaluate potential of extension of LT criteria in HCC patients. Inclusion in this database will not change patient management or the allocation process of the liver grafts in Belgium. This project is financed by a 4-year (2019-2022) grant of the Belgian "Fondation contre le cancer" / "Stichting tegen Kanker".
Develop an intelligent system based on contrast-enhanced ultrasound and clinical information to help doctors automatically obtain ablation parameters (ablation needle number, ablation needle type, ablation time,ablation power) when preparing to use microwave ablation to treat hepatocellular carcinoma
This phase I trial tests the safety and tolerability of an experimental personalized vaccine when given by itself and with pembrolizumab in treating patients with solid tumor cancers that have spread to other places in the body (advanced). The experimental vaccine is designed target certain proteins (neoantigens) on individuals' tumor cells. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving the personalized neoantigen peptide-based vaccine with pembrolizumab may be safe and effective in treating patients with advanced solid tumors.
