Filter by:Biofeedback is an autonomic response observed during the exposure period to CEMBE. After prospectively evaluating 20 healthy individuals or 40 patients with advanced breast cancer or hepatocarcinoma, it was possible to determine subtle hemodynamic changes consistent with the biofeedback effect associated with exposure to a cancer-specific set of modulated frequencies. Once CEMBE is administered through an intra-oral administration device, the human body absorbs the energy applied at the level of 0.2-1 mW / kg, with a peak absorption in 10 g of tissue between 55 and 132 mW / kg. Initially, the discriminatory study analyzing 9 hemodynamic parameters recorded beat heart beat in 18 individuals demonstrated a hemodynamic pattern specific for hepatocarcinoma and breast cancer, with sensitivity of 94.1% and 95%, respectively, and specificity of 75% and 95%, respectively. These findings were validated in blind analysis in the remaining 56 patients, confirming the high rate of discriminatory success. A specific pattern of response associated with exposure of a cancer-specific frequency group was also observed in patients diagnosed with neoplasia, since the control group of healthy individuals did not present these response patterns. This specific signature of response to CEMBE-modulated exposure to cancer-specific frequencies was significantly altered only in patients with hepatocarcinoma after tumor withdrawal (Costa et al, 2015a).
This study is being performed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of 30% PTS100 of total tumor volume as intra-tumoral injection therapy in primary Hepatocellular Carcinoma patients who are ineligible for operation or local regional therapy.
Objectives: 1. To further validate the predictive efficacy of our established microRNA prediction model of HCC lymph node metastasis. 2. To establish a precise therapeutic mode of prophylactic radiation therapy in high-risk patients with HCC with lymph node metastasis under the guidance of a microRNA prediction model.
the purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of aptinib in patients with advanced HCC
To compare the impact on survival of neo-adjuvant TAI for patients with HCC and PVTT who underwent hepatectomy.
Chronic liver disease including cirrhosis is one of the most important factors in the multi-step progression of hepatocarcinogenesis, from benign regenerative nodules to early hepatocellular carcinomas (HCCs) and finally to overt HCCs. Early diagnosis of HCC, differentiation from benign hepatocellular nodules, and surgical resection of the tumor or transplantation of the liver provide the best chance for long-term survival. Several studies have evaluated MRI enhanced with superparamagnetic iron oxide, gadolinium-based contrast material, or both, for the detection and differential diagnosis of focal hepatic lesions. However, the differentiation of HCC from benign and or borderline hepatocellular nodules remains difficult, particularly in patients with cirrhosis, because of the architectural distortion of liver parenchyma and the development of cirrhotic nodules, ranging from benign regenerative nodules to overt HCC, with overlapping imaging features. Recently, gadoxetic acid (gadoliniumethoxybezyl-diethylenetriamine pentaacetic acid; Primovist®, Bayer Health Care Pharmaceuticals), a gadolinium-based paramagnetic contrast agent that produces both dynamic and liver-specific hepatobiliary MRI studies has gained widespread use. Some studies have showed that gadoxetic acid-enhanced MRI allows the accurate detection and characterization of HCC. Investigators plan to assess this in particular as it is a question of great relevance. Execution of well conducted prospective studies will also clarify inclusion of Gd-EOB-DTPA enhanced MRI as the technique of choice in evaluation of patients at risk for HCC.
Randomized study of stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) versus transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) in locally advanced hepatocellular carcinoma.
Comparison of Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy (SBRT) and repeated transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) for Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC)as a Local Salvage Treatment after first incomplete TACE
Compare the effect of liver transplantation (LT) plus ADV-TK gene therapy versus LT only in advanced primary hepatocellular carcinoma.
Prospective evaluation of the circulating cell-free DNA-based epigenetic biomarker (mSEPT9) through a cross-sectional biomarker phase II design. The aim of the SEPT9-CROSS study is to assess the diagnostic accuracy of the plasma mSEPT9 biomarker in a large-scale study of 530 cirrhotic patients recruited in the Nancy University Hospital.
