Filter by:This study intends to evaluate the efficacy and safety of blank- microsphere transcatheter arterial embolization-hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy of oxaliplatin, 5-fluorouracil and leucovorin (bTAE-HAIC) plus Lenvatinib and Camrelizumab for patients with infiltrative hepatocellular carcinoma.
To determine accuracy of elastography and color Doppler in follow up of patients with HCC after TACE comparing with modified RECIST criteria.
This study aims to assess biomarkers and their related polymorphisms in the context of cancer-associated thromboembolism, with a particular focus on their interaction with the immune system. The roles of immune checkpoints, inflammatory and angiogenesis factors, as well as circulating immune cells will be elucidated. Additionally, our investigation extends to the exploration of long non-coding RNAs (LncRNAs) and genes associated with the coagulation vascular system. Initially, these aspects will be evaluated in the context of colorectal cancer, with the intention to expand our research to other solid tumors. The identification of these biomarkers and genetic factors holds the potential to revolutionize therapeutic approaches for patients with cancer-associated thromboembolism, shedding light on their chemotherapy resistance. The effectiveness of combining immunotherapy with targeted inhibitors like Palbociclib and anticoagulants such as Rivaroxaban, among other potential interventions, will be assessed. This study aims to make significant contributions to the understanding of these critical aspects, ultimately leading to the development of more effective treatment strategies for cancer patients.
This will be a study to examine the outcomes of open, laparoscopic, and robotic Living Donor Liver Transplantation (LDLT) procedures. The analysis will encompass 3,448 cases (1,724 donor-recipient pairs) from January 2011 to March 2023, documenting the transition between these surgical techniques, with a noted crossover in 2018.
Barriers that prevent healthcare methods supported by science from being adopted in the real world have led to low-quality, inequitable medical care. Implementation science aims to bridge the evidence-to-practice gap but still lacks simple and convenient methods to identify implementation barriers, systematically track which strategies work to improve care, and provide accessible data and expert recommendations to guide implementation strategy selection for use in research and practice. Project OASIS (Optimizing Approaches to Select Implementation Strategies) will conduct a hybrid type-III, cluster-randomized trial of a new decision aid tool that matches site variables and barriers to successful implementation strategies.
This study intends to evaluate the efficacy and safety of blank- microsphere transcatheter arterial embolization-hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy of oxaliplatin, 5-fluorouracil and leucovorin (bTAE-HAIC) plus Lenvatinib and Camrelizumab for patients with intermediate-advanced huge hepatocellular carcinoma.
This study represents a phase I clinical trial that utilizes natural killer (NK) cell therapy for patients diagnosed with liver cancer, specifically those classified as Child-Pugh A and falling within the Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer (BCLC) stages B or C. The expected results include determining the suitable treatment dosage, identifying any resulting side effects, and calculating the average duration of progression-free survival. The target group for the study consists of all individuals diagnosed with liver cancer. At the same time, the practical sample consists of those who received medical care for liver cancer at Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital (RSCM) between May and December 2022. The chosen research sample comprises liver cancer patients who fulfill the predetermined participation criteria. The necessary sample size for discerning appropriate treatment dosages and the occurrence rate of potential side effects shall consist of 2-3 liver cancer patients who are administered autologous NK cells. The process for isolating these NK cells adheres to the guidelines established by Miltenyi Biotec.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare HAIC concurrently with sequentially combined with targeted and immunotherapies in terms of efficacy and safety in patients with potentially resectable intermediate and advanced HCC (CNLC stage IIa~IIIa). The main questions it aims to answer are: - Does a "strong combination" regimen of three simultaneous treatments (HAIC, targeted agents and immunotherapy) definitely result in a higher surgical conversion rate and better survival benefit? - Can the combination of targeted and immunotherapies based on patients' response to HAIC therapy avoid over-treatment of some patients without affecting the surgical conversion rate and overall survival? Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either HAIC concurrently or sequentially combined with targeted and immunotherapies. Researchers will compare concurrent treatment group with sequential treatment group to see if there are different in terms of the conversion resection rate, long-term survival, and safety.
The purpose of this randomized, double-blind trial was to compare the effects of preemptive Oxycodone and sufentanil at the same dose on pain and inflammatory response after transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) of hepatocellular carcinoma. To study the effect of single dose intravenous injection of Oxycodone and sufentanil before TACE on inflammatory reaction after TACE; And (ii) evaluate the effects of different opioid drugs on pain and nausea/vomiting after TACE.
N-acetylcysteine (NAC), a glutathione precursor and potent antioxidant, is known as a liver protector. As a steroid preparation, dexamethasone is known to have efficient anti-inflammation and immunosuppression effects. N-acetyl cysteine and Dexamethasone's roles in preventing post-embolization syndrome following TACE have each been researched individually in the past. Up until now, no study has been done that has compared dexamethasone and NAC in post-embolization syndrome. With this study, we aim to study the efficacy of combining dexamethasone with N-acetyl cysteine in the prevention of post-embolization syndrome within 72 hours among patients who undergo transarterial chemoembolization for HCC.
