Filter by:The purpose of this study is to characterize the baseline variability of a panel of tissue (tumor and adjacent) and blood-based biomarkers obtained from participants with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The primary hypothesis is that the upper bound of the 80% Confidence Interval of log beta-catenin protein or messenger RNA (mRNA) expression from one core needle biopsy (CNB) equivalent is =< 0.65.
analysis of the risk factors of intra-hepatic distant recurrence (IDR) of hepatocellular carcinoma within 1 year after radiofrequency ablation.
Radiation-induced liver disease (RILD) is a syndrome characterized by the development of anicteric ascites approximately 2 weeks to 4 months after hepatic irradiation. Previous studies have shown that both the volume of liver irradiated and the dose of radiation delivered are prominent factors for development of RILD. While use of a population-based normal tissue complication probability model allows investigators to limit the risk of RILD to a clinically acceptable level, a test that permits investigators to determine an individual's risk of RILD during the course of treatment may allow for individualized treatment modifications, either to prevent toxicity or increase efficacy.
the value of serum procalcitonin in differentiation between bacterial infection and non infectious inflammation in febrile HCC patients following locoeregional treatment for HCC.
We hypothesise that the use of transarterial chemoembolisation (TACE) after liver resection in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma can eradicate residual cancer cells in the liver and thus improve survival. The aim of this study is to compare the survival of patients undergoing liver resection plus post-operative TACE versus liver resection alone.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether neoadiuvant therapy with sorafenib increases the efficacy of thermal ablation in inducing the necrosis of hepatocellular carcinoma.
The prognosis of patients with obstructive jaundice caused by hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is dismal even after biliary drainage; due to malfunction of the biliary drainage tube caused by hemobilia and/or tumor emboli. Photodynamic therapy (PDT) in hilar cholangiocarcinoma improves biliary drainage and prolongs survival. The aims of this study were to assess the safety and efficacy of PDT in unresectable HCC with bile duct invasion.
This study will evaluate the usefulness of plasma proteasome levels as a tumor marker of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) by studying their variation following curative treatment of HCC. The hypothesis of the study is that plasma proteasome levels will decrease following curative treatment, and that proteasome levels could be used as a marker to detect early recurrence.
This is a randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled, multi-center Clinical Trial. Patients with no tumor lesions one month after resection of hepatocellular carcinoma will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to 1 of the 2 treatment groups:6mg/d Tyroserleutide (injection), or placebo. The objective is to evaluate the effect of Injectable Tyroserleutide on the recurrence-free survival,overall survival,quality of life,and the safety and tolerability of subjects after the resection of hepatocellular carcinoma
Chemoembolization of hepatocellular carcinoma lesions is an accepted and frequently used method for the palliative or curative treatment of these lesions. These attempts are being made to make these patients a better candidate for liver transplant or to provide palliation for their condition.
