Summary: Preoperative administration of indocyanine green (ICG) improves the detection of liver tumors in patients undergoing minimally invasive liver resection guided by conventional intraoperative ultrasound. The primary objectives of this study are to evaluate the efficacy of ICG fluorescence uptake in combination with intraoperative ultrasonography and preoperative magnetic resonance imaging for detecting liver tumors. Additionally, a machine-learning algorithm will be developed to enhance liver tumor detection using ICG through photographic analysis. Secondary objectives include investigating the distribution of ICG in liver tissue and its correlation with hepatic fibrosis and steatosis, as well as describing patterns of ICG uptake and their relationship with liver tumors. The study also aims to analyze various clinical outcomes such as the 30-day comprehensive complication index, operation time, conversion to open surgery rate, length of hospital stay, liver tumor recurrence, readmission rate, complications, and 90-day mortality. This research seeks to advance tumor detection methods and improve patient outcomes in minimally invasive liver resection procedures.
To evaluate the diagnostic performance of blood-based SPOT-MAS test in symptomatic individuals, we sought to launch a prospective multicenter study, named K-ACCELERATE. The study aims to recruit 1,000 participants who develop symptoms and signs specific to the top five common cancer types including breast, colorectal, gastric, liver and lung cancer. Primary objective: Evaluate the performance of the SPOT-MAS test in detecting cancer in symptomatic populations. Secondary objectives: Evaluate the feasibility of incorporating SPOT-MAS as a triage test into primary care to increase the detection rates of malignant cancer while minimizing unnecessary referrals to invasive procedures.
This is a diagnostic study. Patients were recruited from patients with clinically suspected or confirmed hepatocellular carcinoma and healthy volunteers were recruited for PET/or PET/CT imaging targeting a GPC3-specific probe (in the case of 68Ga-NOTA-aGPC3-scFv) , to observe the reaction of volunteers and patients after injection of drugs, to evaluate the pharmacokinetics in vivo and the efficacy of diagnosis and staging, and to perform PET CT imaging in patients with contraindications. General Information, clinical data, blood routine, liver and renal function, and other imaging data were collected. The final diagnosis was based on the histopathology of biopsy or surgical specimens.
The primary purpose of this study is to determine the sensitivity of CYBRID Score for predicting in-vivo clinical response based on surgical response or RECIST 1.1 for neoadjuvant and locally advanced/metastatic patients, respectively. The secondary purposes is to determine the sensitivity of the CYBRID Score for predicting in-vivo clinical response based on surgical response or RECIST 1.1 for neoadjuvant and locally advanced/metastatic patients, respectively.
It is sometimes difficult to precisely understand whether a primary liver cancer is a hepatocellular carcinoma or a cholangiocarcinoma. The researchers will develop and validate a liquid biopsy, based on exosomal content analysis and powered by machine learning, to help clinicians differentiate these two cancers before surgery.
This is a clinical study focused on the use of fiducial marker-guided stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) for treating malignant tumors, including lung, liver, pancreatic, and kidney/adrenal cancers. Here's a breakdown of the key components of the study: Study Design: Prospective, single-center, exploratory clinical study. Patient Enrollment: The study intends to enroll patients diagnosed with malignant tumors requiring fiducial marker-guided SBRT. Each tumor type (lung, liver, pancreatic, kidney/adrenal) aims to include 15 cases. Informed Consent: Patients are required to sign informed consent before participating in the study, indicating their understanding of the procedures, risks, and benefits involved. Intervention: Enrolled patients will undergo stereotactic radiotherapy for their respective malignant tumors. During this process, fiducial markers will be implanted according to the study protocol. Monitoring: Following implantation of fiducial markers, the study will monitor adverse events associated with the procedure. This includes any complications or side effects resulting from the marker implantation process. Success Rate: The study will assess the success rate of fiducial marker implantation. This likely involves evaluating the accuracy and reliability of marker placement for guiding SBRT treatment. SBRT Treatment Error: The study will also monitor SBRT treatment errors. This involves tracking any deviations or inaccuracies in the delivery of stereotactic radiotherapy, potentially caused by issues such as improper fiducial marker placement or technical errors in treatment administration. Overall, the study aims to explore the feasibility and effectiveness of using fiducial marker-guided SBRT for treating various types of malignant tumors to assess both the safety and the efficacy with a focus on patient outcomes and treatment accuracy.
Primary liver cancer (PLC) is the sixth most common malignancy in the world and the third most common cause of malignancy death. In 2020, there were about 905,677 new cases of PLC worldwide, and 830,180 deaths. Despite the availability of a variety of treatments for PLC, the 5-year net survival rate is still only 5% to 30%. How to effectively reduce the disease burden of PLC is a major public health problem that needs to be solved worldwide. The clinical characteristics and prognosis of PLC caused by different pathogenic factors are different. Therefore, it is of great significance to fully identify the risk factors of PLC, be familiar with the clinical characteristics and prognosis of disease development, and understand the relevant monitoring and follow-up strategies for the prevention and treatment of PLC.
The goal of this clinical trial is to to learn about different combinations of immunotherapy in patients with colorectal cancer whose cancer has spread to their liver and are planning to have surgery to remove tumor metastases from their liver. The main questions it aims to answer are: - whether these combinations of immunotherapy change the tumor microenvironment in the liver - whether these combinations of immunotherapy are safe and effective when used in colorectal cancer with liver metastases Participants will be randomly assigned to one of the following: - Botensilimab and balstilimab - Botensilimab, balstilimab, and AGEN1423 - Botensilimab, balstilimab, and radiation Participants will be asked to come in to receive drug infusions (and radiation, if applicable) before and after their surgical resection. Participants will be followed for up to 2 years.
Irreversible electroporation is a curative treatment for cancerous liver lesions, performed on deep-seated tumors that are not eligible for surgical resection or percutaneous thermal ablation. The EVALHEP project aims to develop criteria for evaluating the effectiveness of the treatment based on imaging, mathematical models, and numerical simulations to assist radiologists who perform these complex procedures.
