Filter by:The purpose of this prospective randomized study is to compare the efficacy and safety of radiofrequency ablation and hepatic resection for small hepatocellular carcinomas with very homogeneous underlying conditions.
Rationale: This study will compare head to head in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) ineligible for surgery or radiofrequency ablation, the standard treatment arm, transarterial chemoembolization with drug-eluting beads (TACE-DEB), with the experimental arm, stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT). The investigators hypothesis is that the time to progression is more favorable after SBRT than after TACE-DEB. The expected time to include the required patients for this trial will be four years. To the best of the investigators knowledge this study will be the first in the world that will compare both techniques in a randomized trial. Objective: To assess the time to progression after TACE-DEB and after SBRT in a comparable population of patients diagnosed with HCC. Study design: Randomized, prospective, open-label, and phase II study. Study population: Patients diagnosed with HCC, Child-Pugh grade A, one to three tumors, cumulative diameter ≤ 6cm, and ≥ 18 years old. Intervention: Patients with HCC will be randomized to receive the standard treatment, TACE-DEB loaded with doxorubicin or the experimental arm, SBRT. Main study parameters/endpoints: The primary endpoint of this study will be time to progression, defined as time from randomization to radiological progression. Secondary endpoints will be: - Time to local recurrence - Response rate (complete and partial response) - Overall survival - Toxicity - Quality of life.
This is a prospective, multicenter study that will be conducted at up to 40 centers in the United States and Outside United States (OUS). Participants in the study will be randomly assigned to receive either ONCO-DOX or sorafenib treatment. This study will evaluate the study participants' outcomes (medical condition) after being treated with ONCO-DOX and compare it to those treated with sorafenib alone.
The Surefire Infusion System is a novel catheter initially developed to prevent reflux of embolic material into non-target vascular territories. Further research has demonstrated improved penetration and distribution of embolic material into treated arterial territories. The purpose of this study is to compare Y-90 glass microsphere distribution and penetration into cancerous tissue within the liver between a standard endhole catheter and the Surefire Infusion System.
This study will follow-up immune cell populations, secreted factors and released nanovesicles in the blood before, during and after high dose radiation therapy which should give new information of the efficacy of the hypofractionated high dose radiation therapy and a rationale for adjuvant immunotherapy.
This is a two arm, open label, multi-center, Phase 2 study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Melphalan/HDS in patients with unresectable Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC) or Intra Hepatic Cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) confined to the liver.
CC-122-HCC-001 is a Phase 1b dose escalation and expansion clinical study of CC-122 in combination with sorafenib for subjects with unresectable HCC who have received no prior systemic therapy for HCC. The dose escalation phase of the study will explore several dose levels of CC-122 in combination with sorafenib, followed by an expansion part of the study using the optimal combination dose regimen.
The trial is a multicentre, prospective, randomised controlled, unblinded, parallel-group superiority trial of SBRT versus standard TAE/TACE for the curative treatment of inoperable HCC treated with a TAE/TACE incomplete cycle.
Metformin treatment during 36 months could be associated with decreased risk of HCC occurrence and liver related death in patients with compensated HCV cirrhosis and insulinoresistance. This study is an ancillary of the observational study from the CIRVIR cohort in which more than 1200 patients with compensated HCV cirrhosis are currently included. participating centers : 26
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and tolerability of the investigational anticancer drug DCR-MYC. DCR-MYC is a novel synthetic double-stranded RNA in a stable lipid particle suspension that targets the oncogene MYC. MYC oncogene activation is important to the growth of many hematologic and solid tumor malignancies. In this study the Sponsor proposes to study DCR-MYC and its ability to inhibit MYC and thereby inhibit cancer cell growth.
