Filter by:Guanabana, known also as Graviola or Annona muricata is a tropical fruit which has been commonly used as complimentary/alternative medicine in Latin American countries. The main compounds in Graviola are the annonaceous acetogenins. These acetogenins have been shown to be selective and toxic against various types of cancer cells in-vitro and in-vivo experimental animal models. In spite of this evidence of anti tumor activity of Graviola, no prospective clinical studies have been carried out to determine if it also has clinical activity.The Investigator have observed two patients at Auxilio Mutuo Cancer Center who experienced significant tumor shrinkage while taking a tea made of Graviola leaves. Neither of these patients were taking any other treatment for their cancer. The investigator propose to conduct a study using guanabana leaves extract in patients with Gastroesophageal junction(GEJ) adenocarcinoma, as well as in Gastric adenocarcinoma, Hepatocellular carcinoma, Pancreatic adenocarcinoma, Low Grade Lymphomas and Colorectal adenocarcinoma.
In patients with hgepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and portal vein tumoral thrombosis (PVTT), Sorafenib represents the treatment of choice but more recently, trans-arterial radioembolization (TARE) with yttrium-90 has been also proposed. A considerable percentage of such patients are not only able to achieve stability of the disease, but also to obtain a complete radiological response (CR). The possibility of achieving a CR might allow these patients to be listed for liver transplantation (LT), in order to cure not only the cancer but also the underlying cirrhosis that generated it.
To study the safety and clinical effect of injection of drug-eluting microspheres with multiple chemodrug and protein drugs into advanced solid tumors.
The CaPture trial is a prospective, multi-centre, non-randomized phase II study. Its aim is to assess feasibility, safety and efficacy signals of Cabozantinib treatment in patients with HCC and prior non-response or disease progression during a PD-1 or PD-L1 inhibitor treatment. Since the potential study population is very small, the sample size has been fixed in advance to N = 40. Time on treatment (TT) will be measured as primary endpoint.
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a common cancer that poses a heavy economic burden on the healthcare system. In Egypt, it is the most common cause of mortality and morbidity-related cancer. Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a metabolic disorder characterized by hyperglycemia. Cancer and type II diabetes (T2DM), the world's two most prevalent diseases, share many overlapping risk factors and predisposing pathological conditions. The exact mechanisms linking those two diseases are yet to be fully understood. In this study, the investigators aim to assess the relationship between Long Non-Coding RNA (lncRNA) H19 and Insulin-Like Growth Factor 1 Receptor (IGF-1R) mRNA gene expressions in the blood samples of HCC & T2DM patients to investigate the probability of the presence of a pathophysiological link between HCC and DM that may become a therapeutic target for both diseases. To the investigator's knowledge, there is currently no human research study investigating both H19 and IGF-1R in both DM and cancer.
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) has a global importance due to its high rate of progression and high mortality rates. Significant risk factors for the development of HCC are metabolic syndrome, obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM). Dysregulation of adipose tissue derived hormones(adipocytokines/adipokines) might also be involved in obesity-related liver carcinogenesis & due to the wide spectrum of visfatin and vaspin activities ,we focus in this study on their potential role in patients with HCV-related liver cirrhosis with and without HCC on top.
This phase II trial studies how well 68Ga-PSMA PET/MRI or PET/CT works in early detection of liver cancer. 68Gallium-PSMA is a radioactive tracer designed to circulate through the body and attach itself to the prostate- specific membrane antigen (PSMA) protein on liver cancer cells. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a scan that uses magnetic and radio waves to produce detailed structural information of the organs, tissues, and structures within the body. Positron emission tomography (PET) is an imaging test that helps to measure the information about functions of tissues and organs within the body. A PET scan uses a radioactive drug (tracer) to show this activity. Computed tomography (CT) scan uses X-rays to create images of the bones and internal organs within your body. Combining a PET scan with an MRI or CT scan may help make the images easier to interpret. This trial may help determine if 68Ga- PSMA PET/MRI or PET/CT can improve upon the diagnosis and management of liver cancer in the future.
This is a single center, single arm and open-label study to determine the safety of mRNA modified HBV-TCR redirected T-cells and to analyze the changes in tumor microenvironment caused by these HBV-TCR redirected T-cells in subjects with HBV-related HCC who are not amenable to/failed conventional treatment.
Radiation is a standard treatment option for patients with liver cancer. Unfortunately, the tumour grows after radiation in many patients and radiation can harm normal tissues. A new treatment using a specialized radiation procedure called Stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) may increase the chance to control liver cancer and reduce the chance of harm to normal tissues. SBRT allows radiation treatments to be focused more precisely, and be delivered more accurately than with older treatments. SBRT has become a routine treatment. Further research has found that specialized computer programs can possibly guide the selection of an appropriate SBRT dose. This is called radiobiological guidance. However, this has not yet been proven to improve outcomes and/or reduce toxicity. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to find out if SBRT at standard dose versus SBRT guided by radiobiological techniques is better for you and your liver cancer.
This is a multi-center,open-label study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of anti-PD-1 antibody HX008 plus bevacizumab or lenvatinib in the first-line treatment of patients with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma.
