NCT ID: NCT00814242 Completed - Clinical trials for Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Hepatectomy Versus Radiofrequency Ablation for Hepatocellular Carcinoma Adjacent to Major Blood Vessels

Start date: December 2008
Phase: Phase 2/Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

This study will compare and analyze the difference between hepatectomy at deep and complex sites(adjacent to major blood vessels) of patients with HCC and PRFA prognosis, recovery after treatment as well as incidence of complications so as to establish treatment standards of HCC at these sites.

NCT ID: NCT00808145 Withdrawn - Clinical trials for Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Study of Sorafenib, Gemcitabine, and Cisplatin in Advanced Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC)

Start date: February 2009
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

This study will look at the safety and efficacy of treating advanced hepatocellular carcinoma in patients who have not yet received systemic chemotherapy. Previous local treatment of hepatic lesions is permitted The treatment will use a combination of three FDA approved chemotherapy drugs, Gemcitabine, Cisplatin and Sorafenib. Sorafenib is FDA approved for the treatment of hepatocellular cancer, gemcitabine and cisplatin are not approved for the treatment of hepatocellular cancer.

NCT ID: NCT00807300 Completed - Clinical trials for Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Computed Tomography (CT) - Guided Brachytherapy Versus Transarterial Chemoembolization in Patients With Unresectable Hepatocellular Carcinoma

CEAL
Start date: October 2006
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

Percutaneous, image-guided tumor ablation has evolved as a genuine alternative for the treatment of unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma. Published data exploring stereotactic or proton beam percutaneous irradiation have revealed,that hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is radiosensitive to certain protocols. In Phase I and II studies, the investigators investigated the potential role of local irradiation in primary and secondary liver tumors employing a Iridium192 source. The promising results of previous studies indicate that CT-guided brachytherapy might play a role in the treatment of unresectable HCC. Therefore, the investigators started a randomized, controlled, clinical Phase-II study to evaluate the efficacy and survival-benefits of brachytherapy versus transarterial chemoembolization in patients with unresectable HCC.

NCT ID: NCT00805896 Active, not recruiting - Clinical trials for Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Songyou Granule and Transarterial Chemoembolization for Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Start date: December 2008
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

Songyou Granule is a mixture of 6 herbs. Vitro and vivo studies showed that Songyou Granule can inhibit HCC cells grow, and HCC metastasis. Hypothesis of this study is that TACE plus Songyou Granule will improve outcome in patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) compared with TACE.

NCT ID: NCT00802555 Completed - Clinical trials for Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Safety Study of ARQ 197 in Cirrhotic Patients With Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC)

Start date: January 2009
Phase: Phase 1
Study type: Interventional

Multi-center, single-arm Phase 1b study designed to evaluate safety and tolerability of ARQ 197 in cirrhotic patients with HCC.

NCT ID: NCT00797251 Active, not recruiting - Clinical trials for Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Anatomical Right Posterior Sectionectomy of the Liver by IOUS-Guided Finger Compression

Start date: September 2007
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

The use of intraoperative ultrasound (IOUS) allows us to perform new conservative hepatectomies. The investigators previously reported the systematic subsegmentectomy by IOUS-guided finger compression for segments 2-3, which is currently applied for patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC)on cirrhosis. The investigators herein describe a novel technique, which consists in the systematic right posterior sectionectomy by IOUS-guided finger compression.

NCT ID: NCT00790218 Completed - Clinical trials for Hepatocellular Carcinoma

A Phase 1-2 Study of CF102 in Patients With Advanced Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Start date: February 2009
Phase: Phase 1/Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

This trial will test the safety and efficacy of CF102 in patients with advanced liver cancer. Successive groups of patients will be given higher doses of CF102 by mouth on a twice-daily basis. Treatment will be assessed for adverse effects and for effects on the tumor.

NCT ID: NCT00784290 Completed - Clinical trials for Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Phase I/II Study of TSU-68 for Advanced Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Start date: September 2003
Phase: Phase 1/Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Orantinib, an oral tyrosine kinase inhibitor of vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-2, platelet-derived growth factor receptor, and fibroblast growth factor receptor, in patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).

NCT ID: NCT00775073 Completed - Clinical trials for Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Antiangiogenic Treatment of Hepatocellular Cancer With Bevacizumab and RAD001

Start date: October 2008
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

This is a prospective open label clinical trial in patients with advanced or metastatic liver cancer to assess the clinical and biological activity of RAD001 (Everolimus) in conjunction with Bevazicumab (Avastin). Approximately 36 patients will be enrolled.

NCT ID: NCT00769730 Completed - Clinical trials for Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Evaluation the Possible Influence of Transcatheter Arterial Chemoembolization on Hepatitis B Viral Replication

Start date: January 2008
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

Transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) is the traditional method for the palliative management of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Few previous studies had demonstrated that the serum level of anticancer drug from patients treated by TACE was similar to those treated by systemic chemotherapy. Since systemic chemotherapy may have the possibility to influence patient's general defense ability, hepatitis B virus may reactivate after chemotherapy.This study is to investigate the possibility of TACE in the reactivation of hepatitis B virus.
