Filter by:The investigators are trying to learn more about the personal perceptions and experiences regarding the needs of patients with liver cancer to help improve the care of all patients. The investigators would like to know whether there are needs that patients have or are aware of, especially those needs that the investigators have not been able to address. The investigators aim to develop a program that helps participants and participant's families to navigate the process of being diagnosed with liver cancer and receiving treatment.
This prospective, single-arm study was aimed to evaluate the efficacy of recombinant human adenovirus type 5 injection combined with tislelizumab and lenvatinib in the treatment of advanced hepatocellular carcinoma. The recombinant human adenovirus type 5 was administered intratumorally on day 1 and 5 in cycle 1 and cycle 2. Lenvatinib was administered orally once daily started on day 1 of cycle 1 .Tislelizumab was administered intravenously every 3 week started on day 1 of cycle 3. The patient accepted the therapy until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity occurred or meet the end point of the study. The primary end point was ORR assessed by investigator using RECIST v1.1 .
Patients with ruptured liver cancer and bleeding after surgical resection were included according to the criteria of admission, and the patients were divided into experimental and control groups. the primary efficacy end point was RFS, and the secondary end point was the rate of abdominal implant metastases and OS.To analyze the efficacy of HIPEC.
National, multicenter, retrospective, non-randomized observational study (Real World Evidence-RWE) with the purpose of analyzing the epidemiological profile of Hepatocellular Carcinomas (BCLC A, B or C), clinical management, progression profile and overall survival of castrated patients treated in national oncology care reference centers, within the last 6 years (between 2017 to 2022).
The aim of this trial is to carry out the first prospective multicentric study which evaluates the efficacy and the safety of SBRT in HCC patients enlisted for LT and not suitable for other bridging interventional treatments (RF or TACE). The incidence of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is increasing worldwide and is currently the first indication for Liver transplantation (LT). HCC patients access to LT is not only determined by the underlying liver function but also by the alpha-fetoprotein (aFP) score which allows to better identify patients with high risk of recurrence. LT is the best curative treatment as it can cure both the tumor and the underlying liver disease. However, the access to LT is limited due to organ shortage and preserved liver function for the majority of the patients with HCC. Bridging therapies, such as ablation by radiofrequency (RF) or microwaves, or trans-arterial chemoembolization (TACE), are carried out routinely to prevent the risk of tumor progression and drop-out during the waiting time (the drop-out rate being 20%). Nevertheless, only 50 to 70% of patients in France will have access to these treatments due to specific contraindications. Stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) has emerged as a non-invasive alternative and potentially efficient treatment of single or bilocular HCC. SBRT is a high-precision technique allowing to deliver a precise high dose irradiation on moving intrahepatic lesions. RTS is feasible only when the hepatic reserve is sufficient to avoid radic hepatitis. Advantages of SBRT, as compared to TACE or RF, are 1) to preserve the hepatic artery, which can be altered by TACE 2) to allow access to complex tumors locations or superficial lesions not feasible by RF 3) to avoid any tumor spread related to punctures 4) to avoid general anesthesia. However, SBRT has not been validated as bridging therapy before LT in a prospective study. Thus, this study is the first prospective multicentric study to evaluate this treatment modality in HCC patients enlisted for LT not suitable to RF or TACE.
Surgical resection and liver transplantation are the primary curative treatments for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). However, many patients are ineligible for these treatments due to advanced disease, social factors, or limited availability of liver donors. Therefore, for patients with unresectable HCC, locoregional therapies like transarterial radioembolization (TARE with Y90) are considered the next best non-operative option, especially when the cancer remains confined to the liver. Despite the use of these liver-directed therapies, relapse rates and mortality remain high, underscoring the need for new predictive biomarkers and therapeutic targets, including immune modulation. The rationale behind NP-101 (TQ formula) stems from its immune modulatory properties as a potent drug derived from a natural substance, black seed or Nigella Sativa. Previous studies have demonstrated its immune modulation and anti-cancer effects, showing promise in preclinical models of HCC. In a randomized phase 2 study conducted in Covid patients, NP-101 exhibited safety and significantly increased T effector cells (CD4+ and CD8+ T lymphocytes), resulting in accelerated recovery. The immune modulation effect of NP-101, observed in the Covid study, and its potential to enhance CD4+ and CD8+ T effector lymphocytes can potentially modify the immune microenvironment and improve outcomes in locally advanced HCC patients undergoing Y90 treatment. This study will investigate the safety, efficacy and maximum tolerated dose of NP-101 in patients with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma. The dosing scheme for NP-101 in this study will follow a Bayesian Optimal Interval design. Based on the target dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) rate of 30% and assuming a 3+3 design, three subjects will be sequentially enrolled at each of the 3 dose levels (beginning with 3g) until at least one DLT occurs. If no DLTs occur, dosing will be escalated to the next dose level for the next three enrolled subjects. At either of the two dose levels, if 1 DLT occurs, three more subjects will be enrolled at that dose level. If no DLTs occur in these subjects, three more subjects will be enrolled at the next highest dose level. Dosing escalation will be stopped if two or more total DLTs occur at any dose level. The maximum tolerated dose (MTD) will be one dose level below the dose level at which two or more DLTs occurred.
The body has different ways of fighting infection and disease. No single way seems perfect for fighting cancers. This research study combines two different ways of fighting cancer: antibodies and T cells. Antibodies are types of proteins that protect the body from infectious diseases and possibly cancer. T cells, also called T lymphocytes, are special infection-fighting blood cells that can kill other cells, including cells infected with viruses and tumor cells. Both antibodies and T cells have been used to treat patients with cancers. They have shown promise but have not been strong enough to cure most patients. In order to get them to kill cancers more effectively, in the laboratory, the study team inserted a new gene called a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) into T cells that makes them recognize cancer cells and kill them. When inserted, this new CAR T cell can specifically recognize a protein found on solid tumors, called glypican-3 (GPC3). To make this GPC3-CAR more effective, the study team also added two genes called IL15 and IL21 that help CAR T cells grow better and stay in the blood longer so that they may kill tumors better. When the study team did this in the laboratory, they found that this mixture of GPC3-CAR,IL15 and IL21 killed tumor cells better when compared with CAR T cells that did not have IL15 plus IL21 in the laboratory. This study will use those cells, which are called 21.15.GPC3-CAR T cells, to treat patients with solid tumors that have GPC3 on their surface. The study team also wanted to make sure that they could stop the 21.15.GPC3-CAR T cells from growing in the blood should there be any bad side effects. In order to do so, they inserted a gene called iCasp9 into the FAST-CAR T cells. This allows us the elimination of 21.15.GPC3-CAR T cells in the blood when the gene comes into contact with a medication called AP1903. The drug (AP1903) is an experimental drug that has been tested in humans with no bad side-effects. This drug will only be used to kill the T cells if necessary due to side effects . The study team has treated patients with T cells that include GPC3. Patients have also been treated with IL-21 and with IL-15. Patients have not been treated with a combination of T cells that contain GPC3, IL-21 and IL-15. To summarize, this study will test the effect of 21.15.GPC3-CAR T cells in patients with solid tumors that express GPC3 on their surface. The 21.15.GPC3-CAR T cells are an investigational product not yet approved by the Food and Drug Administration.

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most common primary liver tumors. Surgical resection remains the first choice of early stage HCC because the result is superior to other treatments and not limited to liver donation. However, liver resection is criticized that tumor recurrent rate is more than 50% in 5 years although the tumors are completely resected. In our large scale study including 1639 patients with liver resection for HCC, the 1-, 3-, and 5-year disease survival were 73.7%, 58.3% and 53.3%, respectively. Currently there are no effective treatment used as adjuvant therapy to prevent HCC recurrence. Dendritic cells (DC) are the most potent professional antigen-presenting cells, and can capture tumor antigens to provoke antigen-specific cytotoxic T-cells. DC pulsed by tumor associated antigens can be used to proceed tumor-specific immunotherapy. Thereafter, DC pulsed HCC tumor-antigens may be used as an adjuvant therapy to prevent HCC recurrence.
