Filter by:This is a study in adults from Asia with different types of advanced cancer (solid tumours). People can join the study if they have cancer of the stomach, large bowel and rectum, pancreas, liver, head and neck or non-small cell lung cancer. This is a study for people for whom previous treatment was not successful or no treatment exists. People can participate if their tumour has the B7-H6 marker. The purpose of this study is to find the highest dose of BI 765049 that people with advanced cancer can tolerate when taken (alone and) together with ezabenlimab. Another purpose is to check whether BI 765049 taken (alone and) together with ezabenlimab can make tumours shrink. Both medicines may help the immune system fight cancer. Participants can stay in the study up to 3 years, as long as they can tolerate it and can benefit from it. During this time, they visit the study site about every 3 weeks. At the study site they get BI 765049 alone or in combination with ezabenlimab as an infusion into a vein. BI 765049 is given in 3-week cycles, ezabenlimab is given once every 3 weeks. The doctors check the health of the participants and note any health problems that could have been caused by BI 765049 or ezabenlimab. Doctors regularly check the size of the tumour and check whether it has spread to other parts of the body.
Single-arm, open-label, interventional study evaluating adoptive cell therapy (ACT) with autologous tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL) infusion followed by IL-2 after a non-myeloablative(NMA) lymphodepletion preparative regimen for the treatment of patients with advanced liver cancer.
The National Liver Cancer Screening Trial is an adaptive randomized phase IV Trial comparing ultrasound-based versus biomarker-based screening in 5500 patients with cirrhosis from any etiology or patients with chronic hepatitis B infection. Eligible patients will be randomized in a 1:1 fashion to Arm A using semi-annual ultrasound and AFP-based screening or Arm B using semi-annual screening using GALAD alone. Randomization will be stratified by sex, enrolling site, Child Pugh class (A vs. B), and HCC etiology (viral vs. non-viral). Patients will be recruited from 15 sites (mix of tertiary care and large community health systems) over a 3-year period, and the primary endpoint of the phase IV trial, reduction in late-stage HCC, will be assessed after 5.5 years.
The goal of this observational study is to screen and differentiate common cancers in participants with or without suspicious lesions. The main question the investigators aim to answer is: Can the developed model, using peripheral blood cell-free DNA sequencing, work well in screening and classifying common cancers especially in the early stages? Participants will undergo the collection of 15~20ml of blood and 1~2 telephone follow-up calls.
Comprehensive preoperative planning and real-time intraoperative guidance are essential prerequisites for achieving precise liver resection. In pursuit of this goal, the investigators have developed innovative 3D printed liver models utilizing a physically crosslinked self-healing elastomer created through the copolymerization of 4-acryloylmorpholine (ACMO) and methoxy poly (ethylene glycol) acrylate (mPEGA). These printed models exhibit exceptional healing capabilities, efficiently restoring their structure within minutes at room temperature, and rapidly recovering within moments after being incised. Herein, the investigators aim to assess the viability of employing these 3D printed liver models as instrumental tools in designing the optimal surgical approach through an iterative trial-and-error methodology. Concurrently, the investigators aim to determine whether the integration of these 3D printed models into conventional methods (contrast-enhanced CT or MRI) can enhance the safety, ease, and efficiency of hepatic resection procedures.
Percutaneous radiofrequency ablation is a commonly treatment for patients with liver cancer that cannot be surgically resected. During the procedure, patients need to keep awake and cooperate with the procedure, including deep breath and hold breath. However, intolerable pain generated during puncture and radiofrequency heating may cause body movements and interfere the procedure. Oxycodone is frequently used for analgesia but still insufficient. A recent study showed that dexmedetomidine-esketamine combination improves analgesia without increasing adverse events. After stopping infusion, the analgesic/sleep-promoting effects of dexmedetomidine-esketamine seemed to last for up to 24 hours. The investigators hypothesize that dexmedetomidine-esketamine combination as a supplement to oxycodone will improve sedation and analgesia in patients undergoing radiofrequency liver ablation of the liver.
In the recently published multi-center, prospective, single-blind study (THUNDER study), using the methylation signal in cfDNA isolated from the peripheral blood to detect the six types of cancer, the sensitivity for liver cancer detection achieved 87.8%, with a specificity of 98.9%. In this study, a multicenter, case-control study is designed to establish an early cancer detection model based on cfDNA methylation biomarkers using qPCR to detect primary liver cancer and further validate the performance of the model.
The recent global IMbrave150 study evaluated the combination of atezolizumab and bevacizumab versus sorafenib in 501 patients with advanced or metastatic Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC). The median overall survival (OS) was notably better in the atezolizumab/bevacizumab group. However, for HCC patients with intrahepatic macrovascular invasion (MVI), the prognosis remains poor, indicating a significant unmet need in this group. External Beam Radiotherapy (EBRT) has shown promising results in treating HCC with MVI, especially when used in combination with trans-arterial chemoembolization (TACE). It has been reported that radiotherapy may make tumor cells more susceptible to immune-mediated therapy, potentially enhancing the effects of atezolizumab and bevacizumab. Thus, this study aims to investigate the efficacy and safety of atezolizumab/bevacizumab alone versus atezolizumab/bevacizumab in combination with EBRT in HCC patients with macrovascular invasion.
The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate a new type of dendritic cell vaccine in patients with refractory or advanced solid tumors of the esophagus, liver, pancreas and ovaries. The main questions it aims to answer are: - is it feasible to produce and administer these dendritic cell vaccines? - is treatment with these dendritic cell vaccines safe? Participants will first need to undergo a leukapheresis procedure to collect the cellular starting material for the dendritic cell vaccine production. The treatment consists of 6 vaccines, administered at biweekly intervals. Participants will be followed-up until 90 days after the last vaccine.
This is a prospective, multi-center, open-label study to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of Eye90 microspheres® in the treatment of subjects with unresectable Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC). Eye90 microspheres is a medical device containing yttrium-90 (Y-90), a radioactive material, and provides local radiation brachytherapy for the treatment of liver tumors.
