Filter by:This multicentre prospective and randomized study aims to compare the sealant effect after surgical liver resection of a new collagen - polyethylene glycol hemostatic / sealant patch (Hemopatch) vs standard of care.
This trial was designed to investigate whether the survival outcome, response rate and safety of hepatic arterial infusion of oxaliplatin, fluorouracil/leucovorin regimens for patients with Barcelona-Clinic Liver Cancer (BCLC)-C stage hepatocellular carcinoma was superior than those of the standard treatment with sorafenib or not.
The main purpose of this trial is to investigate the safety and tolerability of TAEST16001（TCR Affinity Enhancing Specific T cell Therapy）in the multi-line treatment failed advanced solid tumors except non small cell lung cancer,including liver cancer,gastric cancer,esophageal cancer,bone and soft tissue tumors,breast cancer, bladder carcinoma,prostate carcinoma,thyroid cancer, ovarian cancer and so on. The patients must meet the two criteria: human leukocyte antigens (HLA)-A*0201+ and NY-ESO-1 positive cells≥25% by immunohistochemistry.
To our knowledge, it has not been analyze whether 3D printed liver model would improve the perception of a given liver tumor or the precision of operation planning in liver surgery. We design this prospective controlled trial to test whether the 3D-printed patient specific liver model could be more informative than standard MDCT (multi-row detector computed tomography ) and 3D visualization system in predicting the surgical anatomy of liver.
The purpose of the study is to find out the effects of using nivolumab with Drug Eluting Bead Transarterial Chemoembolization (deb-TACE) in the treatment of liver cancer.
Patients with resectable liver metastases of colorectal origin will be assigned to laparoscopic liver resection or conventional open liver surgery. Blood samples will be drawn preoperatively and 24 hours after resection. Determination of Interleukin-6 (IL-6) and IL-8 will be done to assess the stress response between open and laparoscopic liver resection (Elisa test). The Messenger Ribonucleic Acid (mRNA) of inflammation related factors (cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) and Matrix metalloproteinase (MMP-9)), angiogenesis related factor (vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and hypoxia induced factor-1 (HIF-1)) in tumor tissue and normal liver parenchyma will be detected by real-time real time-Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-PCR).
Background: Biliary tract cancers are rare but they are serious. Researchers want to see if a certain drug helps the immune system fight cancer cells. The drug is called pembrolizumab. It may work even better with two chemotherapy drugs that are widely used to treat gastrointestinal cancers. Objective: To study if pembrolizumab given with capecitabine and oxaliplatin (CAPOX) increases the time it takes for a person's biliary tract cancer to get worse. Eligibility: People age 18 and older with previously treated biliary tract cancer that has spread to other parts of the body Design: Participants will be screened with tests as part of their regular cancer care. Each study cycle is 3 weeks. For 6 cycles, participants will: Get pembrolizumab and oxaliplatin on day 1 of each cycle. They will be given in an intravenous (IV) catheter. Take capecitabine by mouth for 2 weeks then have 1 week without it. Participants will complete a patient diary. Starting with cycle 7, participants will get only pembrolizumab. They will get it once every 3 weeks. On day 1 of every cycle, participants will have: Physical exam Review of symptoms and how well they do normal activities Blood tests Every 9 weeks, they will have a scan. Participants may have tumor samples taken. Participants will have a final visit about 1 month after they stop the study drug. After that, they will be contacted by phone or email yearly.
Liver cancer including primary hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and metastatic liver cancers is one the most common malignancies in the world. Over 10000 new cases per year are diagnosed in Taiwan. Despite the many treatment options, the prognosis of HCC remains dismal. More than 8000 people died of this cancer every year in Taiwan. A majority (70% to 85%) of patients present with advanced or unresectable disease. In contrast, small liver cancers can be cured with an appreciable frequency. Five-year disease-free survival exceeding 50% has been reported for surgical resection, and for the inoperable patients who do not have vascular invasion or extrahepatic spread. Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) is recommended as an alternative curative therapy. However, the main drawback of RFA is its limitation to tumor size and location. The tumors larger than 5 cm in diameter or located adjacent to vessels, could not be ablated completely sometimes. Microwave ablation (MWA) can ablate tumor by higher temperature than RFA, so is supposed not to be diminished by adjacent vessels.
This phase III, randomized, prospective clinical study, aiming to compare the analgesic effects of celecoxib, parecoxib, and oxycodone in patients with inoperable hepatic carcinoma undergoing TACE procedure in postoperative pain control.
This study evaluates the intratumoral administration of escalating doses of a novel, experimental drug, INT230-6. The study is being conducted in patients with several types of refractory cancers including those at the surface of the skin (breast, squamous cell, head and neck) and tumors within the body such (pancreatic, colon, liver, lung, etc.). Sponsor also plans to test INT230-6 in combination with anti-PD-1 and anti-CTLA-4 antibodies.
