Filter by:Currently，the "ALPPS" (associating liver partition with portal vein ligation for staged hepatectomy) procedure which enables the rapid growth of the future liver remnant and extends surgical indication to patients with mid-advanced stage hepatocellular carcinoma becomes a research hot spot. However, the procedure has a high morbidity and mortality rate.Using radio-frequency ablation instead of in-situ split of liver to avoid forming a coagulation band in stage I will reduce the incidence of complications（bile leakage, abdominal infection,hemorrhage e.t.) The investigators named this technique as Radio-frequency Assisted Liver Partition with Portal vein ligation for staged hepatectomy （RALPPS）.Investigators hypothesized that the RALPPS might result in lower morbidity and mortality rate than ALPPS in the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma . This Prospective Randomized Controlled Trial is on the Safety and Efficacy of radio-frequency assisted liver partition with portal vein ligation for staged hepatectomy for hepatocellular carcinoma.
The presence of portal vein tumor thrombosis (PVTT) in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the most significant prognostic factors for poor prognosis, without treatment, their survival is less than 3 months. In the HCC patients who combined with PVTT, Radiation therapy (RT) showed 50% of local control and about 10 months survival duration. Despite the standard treatment of the HCC combined with PVTT is sorafenib, but Korean Liver Cancer Study Group (KLCSG) recommend RT as an alternative option in those patients. Investigators previously reported the retrospective study that the scheduled interval Trans-catheter Arterial Chemo-embolization (TACE) followed by RT for HCC combined with PVTT and 60% of the patients showed objective response without significant elevation of complication. However, the prospective outcomes of TACE followed by RT for HCC are scantly reported. Based on those background, we start this prospective study to evaluate the clinical outcomes and adverse event in the RT after TACE in the unresectable HCC patients who combined with PVTT.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether an investigational drug DCB-BO1202 is effective and safe in the treatment of liver fibrosis in HBV patients having experienced intermediate stage hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC)
This project investigates the feasibility of assessing the relative blood volume of carcinomas in patients with Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC) and liver metastases from pancreatic or colorectal cancer compared to normal liver from DynaCT acquisitions on an interventional platform.
This is an open label, three-arm, phase 1 dose escalation study and phase 2 study of BBI608 in combination with sorafenib, or BBI503 in combination with sorafenib. The study population is adult patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma who have not received systemic chemotherapy.
This pilot phase I/II trial studies the best dose of erlotinib hydrochloride and to see how well it works in preventing liver cancer in patients with scarring (cirrhosis) of the liver. Erlotinib hydrochloride may help to inhibit the development of fibrous tissue and prevent liver cancer from forming in patients with cirrhosis of the liver.
This surveillance's objectives are: 1. Unknown adverse reactions 2. Incidences of adverse drug reaction 3. Factors considered to have effect to safety and effectiveness
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of TLC388 (Lipotecan) as a second line treatment in subjects with advanced Hepatocellular Carcinoma.
60 patients of radiological, biopsy proven advanced HCC (Hepatocellular carcinoma) patient will be randomized into two groups. Cases group will receive Sorafenib plus vitamin K and control group will receive Sorafenib plus placebo
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the most common malignances seen in different regions of the world. The 5-year risk of recurrence of HCC after resection has been reported to be as high as 70%. It has been proposed that best way to reduce recurrence is to search for improved adjuvant therapies. Especially for some postoperative patients who were identified with the risk factors for recurrence, several adjuvant therapies were often used, including TACE. Recently, a variety of Traditional Chinese Medicine combined with TACE for toxicity reduction and enhancing the efficacy have been investigated in the treatment of HCC. Cidan capsules are a formula containing more than ten types of plant extracts, and has been clinically used for >10 years as a safe and nontoxic antitumor drug. However, the safy and efficacy of preventive therapy is still not clear. In this prospective control study, we enroll such HCC patients experienced operation and were identifed with high risk of recurrence. After a preventive TACE, the eligible patients were divided into two groups. One group will accept Cidan therapy and another will not. Under a basis of large sample, the safty and efficacy of Cidan combined with TACE in HCC patients will be investigated and analysed.
