Filter by:The LNA-i-miR-221 Phase I trial has been designed as a monocentric open label dose escalation study which received written approval by the Competent Authority and independent Ethics Committee (IEC). LNA-i-miR-221 will be investigated for safety and tolerability in patients, men and women age ≥18 yrs, affected by Refractory-MM and advanced solid tumors.
To investigate the efficacy and safety of carelizumab combined with regorafenib in second-line treatment for patients with primary hepatocellular carcinoma.
This phase II trial studies the effect of stereotactic body proton radiotherapy in treating patients with liver cancer. Proton radiotherapy is a type of treatment that uses high-energy beams to treat tumors.
The ABC-HCC trial is a Phase IIIb, randomised, multicenter, open-label study designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of atezolizumab plus bevacizumab versus TACE in patients with intermediate-stage HCC. Approximately 434 patients in two arms of treatment will be enrolled.
This study is a prospective multicenter study of the duration of treatment, the success rate, the frequency of complications, and the local recurrence rate of 12 months when Radio-frequency ablation therapy is performed for the treatment of HCC using the 'No touch' technique as a combined high-frequency transmission mode with Octopus electrodes. It aims to evaluate through. In addition, the results obtained from this prospective study were as follows: 1) Patients who underwent Radio-frequency ablation therapy by puncturing an existing tumor, and 2) Patients who underwent microwave ablation during the study period. The secondary goal is to evaluate which method is more effective in reducing the treatment time and recurrence rate compared to.
To study the clinical effect of Trametinib combined with Everolimus and Lenvatinib in the treatment of Recurrent/Refractory advanced solid tumors.
Developed in Japan in the 1980s, TACE became the most frequent treatment for unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in patients with preserved hepatic function after 2002, when two radiochemotherapies (RCTs) showed survival benefits for HCC patients who underwent conventional Lipiodol-based TACE (cTACE). Nowadays, nearly half of HCC patients undergo this procedure during their clinical history. In the last ten years, cTACE has been challenged by an alternative procedure, drug-eluting beads-TACE (DEB-TACE), after the introduction of calibrated embolizing microspheres loaded with a chemotherapeutic agent. DEB-TACE is considered to be less toxic and better standardized than cTACE, with reported no differences in patient survival. Since 2006, DEB-TACE has become the standard in many centers worldwide. Though, the need of adding doxorubicin to small beads embolization alone (TAE) remains unsettled. Though cTACE/DEB-TACE and TAE have been compared in several RCTs, no study demonstrated a clear survival benefit associated with the former. Our study aims to compare first-line DEB-TACE and TAE on a random sample of HCC with the hypothesis that the addition of drug to embolization with small size beads is not associated with a survival benefit when compared to embolization alone performed with tiny calibrated microspheres. HCC is considered a chemo-resistant tumor and to date there is no clear evidence of benefits in associating anticancer agents to TAE. On the other hand, the optimal size of embolic agents has still to be defined. A comparative evaluation of TACE and TAE is essential for two additional reasons: a) it is still unclear whether side effects following embolization procedures are related to the embolization itself, to drug addition or both; b) DEB-TACE procedure is more expensive than TAE and, given the current attention on cancer-related health care cost control, identification of opportunities for cost savings in HCC treatments of an increasingly common cancer would be valuable.
By 2030, hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) will become the second leading cause of cancer-related death, accounting for more than one million deaths per year according to the World Health Organization. To this date, screening for hepatocellular carcinoma in France remains uniform for all patients, based solely on a liver ultrasound every 6 months. This strategy has three main limitations: lack of personalisation, low compliance, relatively poor performance of the ultrasound. Risk stratification models have been developed for chronic hepatitis C, alcoholic cirrhosis and non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) including clinical and biological parameters but no analysis of the liver parenchyma which is the physiopathological substrate of hepatocarcinogenesis. The advent of new artificial intelligence techniques could revolutionize the approach and lead to a personalised radiological screening strategy. Deep learning, a subclass of machine learning, is a popular area of research that can help humans performing certain tasks by automatically identifying new image features not defined by humans. The hypothesis of this study is that the non-tumor cirrhotic liver parenchyma is rich in structural information reflecting the severity of the hepatopathy, its carcinological risk and the process of hepatocarcinogenesis. Its analysis combined with clinical and biological data, which have already been studied to stratify the risk of hepatocarcinogenesis, will allow to define a very high-risk population, particularly in the context of Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) eradication and Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) control. Consequently, this study proposes to design prospectively a deep learning model for stratification of the risk of hepatocarcinogenesis by including clinical, biological and radiological ultrasound parameters.
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) recurs in up to 60% of patients who undergo resection. Circulating tumor cells (CTC) have been advocated as promotors of the recurrence. However, their role as prognostic markers in the surgical setting is unclear. The aim of the present study has been to assess the association between CTC from peripheral blood samples and the risk of recurrence after surgery. Patients with a first diagnosis of HCC, no previous treatment for this condition, no other oncological history, and BCLC stage 0-A-B will be enrolled in 2 centers. Patients will undergo to serial liquid biopsies (i.e., a 15ml peripheral blood sample on each time point) at day 0-30-90-180-365 after surgery. After isolation of peripheral blood mononucleate cells, CTC will be detected by FACSymphony™ and subsequently the following markers will be identified: EpCAM, N-cadherin (N-cad) and CD90. Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) will be analyzed by an index estimated as the ratio between the number of EpCAM+/N-cad- and EpCAM+/N-cad+ cells (EMT Index). Patients will be divided according to the recurrence status.
This is a phase II, single arm, open-label study of two parallel cohorts (advanced stomach and gastroesophageal junction cancer and hepatocellular carcinoma), evaluating the effects of telatinib in combination with Keytruda on progression-free survival.
