Filter by:This trial involves patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) diagnosis treated with transarterial radioembolization (TARE) with resin microspheres loaded with 90Y. Patients will be divided in two groups based on prescription method to calculate the therapeutic radionuclide activity to be injected. In arm A, standard dosimetric approach such as Body Surface Area (BSA) method and Medical Internal Radiation Dosimetry (MIRD) monocompartmental method will be used. In arm B, novel voxel-based dosimetry, based on pre-treatment simulation with 99m-Technetium (99mTc)-Macro Aggregated Albumin (MAA) injection and SPECT/CT image acquisition, will be used. The primary outcome will be the overall survival of patients included in arm A and arm B. Secondary outcomes will be adverse events, tumor response, biomarkers assessed from blood samples prior and after the treatment and voxel-based dosimetry obtained from post-treatment PET/CT images acquisitions.
Non-invasive MRI subclassification of Heptocellular Carcinoma - HepCaSt-Study
The objective of this study is the acquisition of whole blood samples and serum samples from participants with untreated Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC) and subjects undergoing Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC) surveillance. These samples will be used for research purposes to develop and validate the Helio multi-analyte blood test.
This study is a prospective phase II, single arm mono-institutional study conducted in Queen Mary Hospital (Hong Kong) assessing the efficacy and safety of the sequential administration of trans-arterial chemo-embolization (TACE) and stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) with immune checkpoint inhibitors in unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients.
Liver cancer is the sixth most commonly diagnosed cancer and the fourth leading cause of cancer death worldwide. It is the 3rd most common cause of cancer death in Hong Kong. The five-year survival rates of liver cancer differ greatly with disease staging, ranging from 91.5% in early-stage to 11% in late-stage. The early and accurate diagnosis of liver cancer is paramount in improving cancer survival. Liver cancer is diagnosed radiologically via cross sectional imaging, e.g. computed tomography (CT), without the routine use of liver biopsy. However, with current internationally-recommended radiological reporting methods, up to 49% of liver lesions may be inconclusive, resulting in repeated scans and a delay in diagnosis and treatment. An artificial intelligence (AI) algorithm that that can accurately diagnosed liver cancer has been developed. Based on an interim analysis, the algorithm achieved a high diagnostic accuracy. The AI algorithm is now ready for implementation. This study aims to prospective validate this AI algorithm in comparison with the current standard of radiological reporting in a randomized manner in the at-risk population undergoing triphasic contrast CT. This research project is totally independent and separated from the actual clinical reporting of the CT scan by the duty radiologist. The primary study outcome is the diagnostic accuracy of liver cancer, which will be unbiasedly based on a composite clinical reference standard.
Netrin-1 is a dependence receptor ligand participating in the pathology of several cancer types. It is up-regulated in chronic liver diseases, cirrhosis and HCC. We hypothesize that netrin-1 may play a detrimental role in HCC. The goal of this project is to characterize netrin-1 signals in HCC samples with ad hoc controls, to investigate the benefit of capturing netrin-1 in preclinical models of HCC and to try to define patients groups the most likely to benefit from this targeting approach in the clinic.
Combined F index, A index,ATT index and spleen stiffness to predict tumor recurrence in different liver settings after thermal ablation of HCC.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of acetazolamide combined with levamisole in the treatment of advanced HCC.
A Phase II study of immunotherapy with Durvalumab (MEDI4736) and Tremelimumab in combination with either Y-90 SIRT or DEB-TACE for intermediate stage HCC with pick-the-winner design
This is a phase 2 single-arm, open-label clinical trial determining efficacy of cabozantinib in combination with ipilimumab/nivolumab and transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) in subjects with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). These are subjects who are not candidates for curative intent treatment.
