Filter by:This clinical trial evaluates whether 68Ga-PSMA PET/MRI or PET/CT can improve upon the diagnosis and management of liver cancer. MRI stands for magnetic resonance imaging, a scan that uses magnetic and radio waves to produce detailed structural information of the organs, tissues and structures within the body. PET stands for positron emission tomography, an imaging test that helps to measure the information about functions of tissues and organs within the body. A PET scan uses a radioactive drug (radiotracer) to show this activity. CT scan uses X-rays to create images of the bones and internal organs within the body. In patients that have been diagnosed with liver cancer, a protein called prostate specific membrane antigen (PSMA) appears in large amounts on the surface of the cancerous cells. The radioactive chemical compound (68Ga-PSMA) has been designed to circulate through the body and attach itself to the PSMA protein on liver cancer cells. 68Ga-PSMA PET/MRI or PET/CT may be better in diagnosing and managing liver cancer.
The purpose of this study was to explore the correlation between postoperative recovery of liver function and gut microbiota in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Liver resection patients were divided into the recovery group and the recovery delay group according to the recovery level of liver function on the fifth day after the operation. Benign liver disease was used as a control. Statistical analysis was performed to compare the differences in gut microbiota between the three groups. Then, fecal microbiota transplantation was performed in a mouse hepatectomy model. Through this study, the investigators hope to understand the relationship between gut microbiota and postoperative recovery of liver function in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma, so as to provide a new therapeutic direction for patients in the aspect of perioperative liver function recovery.
The study evaluates artificial intelligence method based on multimodal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) images and clinical data in preoperative prediction of prognosis in early hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients treated with minimally invasive treatment. The correlation between prognosis-related MRI features and pathological features was studied through artificial intelligence method, so as to provide the interpretability of image features for predicting the prognosis of HCC patients treated with minimally invasive treatment.
The objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of transcatheter arterial chemoembolization combined with anti-pd-1 antibody in patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma as first line therapy.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety of lenvatinib in HCC.
This is a Phase II , Open-label , Investigator-initiated Trail of SHR-1210 (an Anti-PD-1 Inhibitor) in Combination With Apatinib in Patients With Hepatocellular Carcinoma(HCC).This study aims to evaluate the safety and efficacy of SHR-1210 combination with Apatinib as a preoperative treatment of HCC.
Two hundred HCC patients with partial hepatectomy were enrolled as a cohort for observational study. The inclusion criterion was intended curative hepatectomy for HCC patients by image analysis, and the exclusion criteria were unresectable disease, synchronous cancers, recurrent cancers, or distant metastasis. The study endpoint was 30 March 2019, and tumor staging was based on the 8th edition of the American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) TNM staging system for HCC
PD1 blockade has been approved as salvage therapy for advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Although there is not solid evidence that PD1 blockade would induce hepatitis B virus (HBV) reactivation, previous clinical trials of PD1 blockade required enrolled patients to receive anti-HBV medications and control the viral load to be under 100-2000 IU/mL before initiation of PD1 blockade therapy. Such a requirement may not be necessary and could delay the treatment. Guidelines for prevention of chemotherapy induced HBV reactivation only suggest combining anti-HBV medications during the chemotherapy course without such a requirement of very load HBV viral load. The investigators hypothesized that under anti-HBV medications, patients with advanced HCC and active chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection can receive durvalumab treatment without increased risks of HBV reactivation and related complications.
This study compares gadolinium contrast-enhanced Abbreviated MRI (AMRI) to standard ultrasound for Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC) screening and surveillance in subjects with liver cirrhosis.
The vast majority of primary liver cancer (90%) is hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), and the majority of HCC patients have been locally advanced or metastatic disease when they are diagnosed in clinics. Most of them are not suitable for radical treatment. In the case of supportive treatment, the median survival time was only 7.9 months. Therefore, there is an urgent need for effective treatment for these patients. At present, the overall objective response rate (ORR) of single or sequential therapy is not satisfied, and the over survival (OS) improvement is not ideal. Therefore, combined therapy maybe the good choice for patients with advanced HCC. This study focuses on the in-operable, middle and late stage (BCLC-B and BCLC-C) HCC patients. Through the combination of immunotherapy (PD-1 monoclonal antibody), local therapy (TACE) and anti-angiogenic therapy (lenvatinib), it is expected to change the tumor microenvironment, restore the immune response, strengthen the anti-tumor effect of various treatments, and improve the therapeutic efficacy in patients with middle and late stage HCC.
