Filter by:The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy (HAIC) of oxaliplatin plus fluorouracil/leucovorin compared with HAIC of oxaliplatin alone in patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC)
This study aims to evaluate the feasibility of indocyanine green (ICG)-based fluorescence imaging in the detection of liver tumors. By correlating the ICG fluorescence patterns with pathologically confirmed tumors , it would be possible to use fluorescence navigation system in helping promoting oncology treatment.
The primary reason for recurrence of hepatocellular carcinoma after radiofrequency ablation (RFA) is the micro-metastatic lesion that has not been ablated and inactivated in the transitional area.Some clinical trials have confirmed that H101(recombinant human adenovirus type 5 injection) has selective oncolysis in a variety of solid tumors.However, there are no reports that H101 which is injected during surgery can improve the efficacy of RFA in liver cancer at present.Therefore,We used a multicenter prospective randomized controlled study as the main method to prospectively compare the short-term and long-term efficacy of RFA combined with H101 group and traditional RFA group in the treatment of small liver cancer (single lesion , diameter less than or equal to 3cm,to evaluate the value of RFA combined with H101 injection in reducing the postoperative recurrence rate of small hepatocellular carcinoma, and to provide a reliable evidence-based medical basis for the selection of treatment methods for small hepatocellular carcinoma.
Progastrin is a pro-hormone that, in physiological conditions, is maturated in gastrin in G cells of the stomach. The role of the gastrin is to stimulate the secretion of gastric acids during digestion. It is also important for the regulation of cell growth of the gastric mucosal. In a healthy person, progastrin is not detectable in the peripheral blood. However, progastrin is abnormally released in the blood of patients with different cancers (colorectal, gastric, ovarian, breast, cervix uterus, melanoma…) The gene GAST coding for progastrin is a direct target gene of the WNT/ß-catenin oncogenic pathway. The activation of this oncogenic pathway is an early event in cancer development. Chronic activation of the WNT/ß-catenin oncogenic pathway occurs in almost all human solid tumors and is a central mechanism in cancer biology that induces cellular proliferation, blocking of differentiation leading to primary tumor growth and metastasis formation. Progastrin measured in the peripheral blood of patients on treatments, could be a new powerful marker for diagnosis and prognosis at different stages.
Hepatic artery infusion chemotherapy (HAIC) is effective and safe for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Recombinant Human Type-5 Adenovirus (H101) is safe for HCC. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of HAIC combined with H101 compared with HAIC alone in patients with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) at barcelona clinic liver cancer A-B stage.
evaluate the effect of different oxaliplatin dose in TAI in treating unresectable HCC.
The main risk factor for development of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is cirrhosis of any etiology, with an annual incidence risk between 1-6%; currently the leading cause of death in patients with cirrhosis and the 2nd cause of death by cancer worldwide. Chronic hepatitis C (HCV) is the first single cause associated to cirrhosis and HCC in the Western world. With the advent of new direct antiviral agents (DAA) of chronic HCV infection, virological cure generally exceeds 90% of the cases. Previous studies have shown that the incidence of HCC is lower in patients with virologic cure after treatment with pegINF schemes. However, recently published data, open up more controversy regarding the incidence of HCC after virologic cure with DAA. An increasing incidence of HCC after virologic cure in patients treated with DAA has been observed, opening a paradox yet unexplained. This project proposes to answer the following clinical research question: in patients with HCV cirrhosis treated with DAA, is there a change in the incidence of hepatocellular carcinoma? To answer this question a prospective longitudinal cohort study of patients with Child Pugh A-B cirrhosis will be held at 3 years minimum follow-up. A minimum of 210 patients will be included with clinical or histological or non-invasive diagnosis of cirrhosis Child Pugh A or B, with HCV treated with DAA and without hepatocellular carcinoma at the time of enrollment. From this cohort, patients who develop HCC during follow-up will be identified. Routine screening will be done through ultrasound every 6 months in all subjects enrolled and the diagnosis of HCC will be according to recommendations of European and American guidelines.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of sorafenib combined with hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy (HAIC) compared with lenvatinib combined with HAIC in patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC)
We propose a randomized controlled study to compare the treatment efficacy of microwave ablation to liver resection for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in patients with borderline liver function.
This trial was designed to investigate the safety, response rates and survival outcomes of patients with advanced solid tumors by trans-artery/intra-tumor infusion of PD1/PDL1 antibody and/or CTLA4 antibody ipilimumab plus chemotherapeutic drug and to compare their differences.
