Filter by:This study evaluates a concept called 'Teaching the Teachers' and whether it is helpful in disseminating guidelines on the national and international levels. "Teaching the Teachers" involves teaching the guidelines to experts who later teach the same guidelines to other radiologists, trainees, and physicians to assume the teacher's role and disseminate the guidelines and so on.
A multicentre, parallel group, randomized controlled Phase II clinical trial evaluating neoadjuvant Atezolizumab/Bevacizumab versus neoadjuvant SBRT in patients with biopsy proven solitary HCC with PVTT involving the portal vein branches. Both arms are considered experimental, and as such, a Simon two-stage design will be initially used within both arms. Only if both arms are deemed of interest for further study will a comparison between arms, using a pick-the-winner design, be conducted. Following the completion of neoadjuvant therapy, study participants will undergo a CT scan or MRI to assess tumour response to neoadjuvant therapy. Hepatic resection will be performed for those participants who meet the surgical resection criteria.
The efficacy and safety of HAIC combined with tyrosine kinase inhibitor and immunotherapy have been proved by the clinical research. In this single-arm, open-label, prospective study, for those patients with unresectable primary HCC, in the case of failure of TACE treatment, the combination of HAIC, TKI and immunotherapy is expected to bring new breakthroughs.
To investigate efficacy and toxicity of regorafenib after treatment with atezolizumab and bevacizumab combination
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and clinical activity of NKG2D-based CAR-T cells infusion in the treatment of relapsed/refractory NKG2DL+ solid tumors.
ICIs combined with AATDs have gradually become the mainstream treatment modality for advanced hepatocellular carcinoma, and more related clinical trials are underway. This is undoubtedly a breakthrough and the main direction for improving the overall 5-year survival rate of the liver cancer population in the next decade, and a touchstone for exploring the development and value of liver surgery in the era of comprehensive treatment for advanced hepatocellular carcinoma. Overall, there are relatively few reports on various types of translational therapy for advanced HCC, probably for the following two reasons: (1) advanced hepatocellular carcinoma is complex, rapidly progressing, difficult to treat, and has low translational efficiency; (2) the existing translational therapy strategies are highly selective in terms of applicable population, complex treatment process, and institutional dependence, and cannot achieve efficient and successful translation. At present, there are few studies reported on the application of TACE+ICIs+AATDs to carry out translational therapy. In the absence of relevant guidelines for reference, advanced hepatocellular carcinoma may be the best entrance to carry out translational therapy with ICIs combined with AATDs, and after satisfactory results are achieved in the treatment of this group of patients, a point-to-point effect can be generated, facilitating the transformation of TACE+ICIs+AATDs The target population of TACE+ICIs+AATDs translational therapy can be further expanded. To promote the development of hepatocellular carcinoma treatment and improve the long-term survival rate of the overall hepatocellular carcinoma population. In this study, we enrolled patients with advanced HCC and used TACE+ICIs+AATDs for conversion therapy to improve the conversion rate, so that unresectable HCC patients could be converted to a chronic disease state and achieve long-term survival on the one hand, and provide potential for sequential surgical treatment on the other. The drug of choice is lenvatinib. This study provides a basis for the clinical application of translational therapy for advanced hepatocellular carcinoma.
With 8,000 related deaths per year, HCC is one of the most dangerous cancers in France. The main reason for the poor prognosis of HCC is most often a diagnosis at an advanced stage ineligible for curative treatment. In the field of oncology, low participation to screening is closely linked to socioeconomic status (e.g. level of education, income, employment). In HCC, the socioeconomic status is linked to incidence, overall survival and treatment allocation in US, UK and Australia. This suggests that the social environment should be taken into account when designing interventions and policies that allows facilitating the medical pathways for patients with HCC with the ultimate goal of improving the overall prognosis. However, the studies assessing the impact of social determinants on the management of HCC in France are limited. Bryère at al. reported that the highest incidence and the worst prognosis of HCC were observed in the most disadvantaged populations in France. To date, there is no available data concerning the influence of social determinants on: implementation of surveillance programs of HCC, stage of disease at the time of diagnosis or treatment allocation. This data is essential for better understanding the geographic disparities observed in France and for developing the strategies to remedy them. CHIEF is a multicenter longitudinal observational study of patients with HCC (ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT04348838), that will collect the exhaustive data including patient and tumor characteristics, diagnostic circumstances and modalities, care pathway from diagnostic imaging to referral to expert center, treatment allocation and implementation, and 5-year follow up including recurrent assessment of quality of life. Social-CHIEF is an ancillary study to the CHIEF cohort (approved by CHIEF scientific committee). The population of this study will consist in a subset of patients from the CHIEF prospectively included or already recruited who accept to participate in this study. The data collected in CHIEF will be retrieved from the CHIEF main database and additional data about social determinants will be specifically investigated by self-administrated questionnaires. The results obtained will provide a better understanding of the influence of social determinants on health trajectories of HCC patients. These data will be essential in recommending new health policies and in designing innovative intervention studies to address social disparities.
The purpose of the study is to determine if the type of catheter used in the mapping procedure prior to radioembolization improves the delivery of radioactivity to tumor(s) in participants with liver cancer. The name of the devices involved in this study are: - Pressure Enabled Drug Delivery (PEDD)/TriNav Infusion System - Standard 2.4F microcatheter, not otherwise specified
Interventional therapy is an effective alternative for patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) who are not indicated for surgery. CT or MRI imaging findings are important diagnostic and evaluation criteria for preoperative diagnosis and postoperative efficacy evaluation of TACE. In addition, the recurrence rate of liver cancer is very high, even with radical treatment, the 5-year recurrence rate is still as high as 70%. Therefore, postoperative follow-up and early detection of recurrent lesions by imaging are beneficial to the prognosis and survival benefit. Gadoxetic acid is a liver-specific MRI contrast agent for the diagnosis of liver cancer, especially in early stage, or small liver cancer (<2cm). Therefore, gadoxetic acid enhanced MRI is very important for the decision making and prognosis of HCC patients. TACE combined with ablative therapy has received clinical attention, which can significantly improve the clinical efficacy and reduce liver function damage. The study forces on evaluating the changes in survival in patients with liver cancer who were scheduled to receive TACE combined with ablation and regularly followed up, compared with enhanced CT or conventional MRI as imaging assessment (preoperative diagnosis and postoperative follow-up).
Transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) is considered the gold standard for treating intermediate-stage hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). However, any treatment guidelines do not specify the criteria for repeating TACE. This study was to compare HAIC with FOLFOX with sorafenib who showed TACE-resistant.
