Filter by:Liver transplantation has become an important treatment in hepatocellular cancer (HCC). While the generally determined malign indication in the world is HCC, some centers perform liver transplantation in both cholangiocarcinoma and mixed type hepatocellular-cholangiocarcinoma diseases and investigate the differences in recurrence and survival outcomes compared to HCC. Although liver transplantation for intrahepatic cholangiocarcinomas of small diameter <2cm is a popular topic of discussion around the world, a common consensus has not been established.
Curative treatment of peri hilar cholangiocarcinomas is R0 surgery and require major hepatectomy with biliary tract resection. These complexe procedures can lead to high morbidity and mortality. A severe alteration of nutritional status before the surgery might be a poor prognosis for survival.
Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) is a malignant tumor of biliary epithelial cells that originates from the branches of the intrahepatic bile duct at the second level and above. Its incidence accounts for about 15%-20% of primary liver malignancies, showing a gradually increasing trend. Surgical resection is currently the main method for the treatment of ICC. However, most (60% -70%) patients are diagnosed at the advanced stage. Gemcitabine plus cisplatin is the standard first-line incurable resection recommended in international and domestic guidelines. There is not a standard second-line treatment that has progressed after standard first-line chemotherapy. The clinical benefits of immune therapies for HCC are emerging. Early clinical data already show the safety of immune checkpoint inhibition. This study is to analyze the safety and efficacy of drug-eluting beads transarterial chemoembolization combined with apatinib and carrelizumab injection in the treatment of ICC that has progressed after standard first-line chemotherapy. Patients who were aged 18 to 80 years with a histological or cytological diagnosis of ICC，locally advanced or multiple liver metastases, including progression after gemcitabine chemotherapy, will be enrolled in this trial.
For patients with locally advanced cholangiocarcinoma with resectable margins, patients who meet the selection criteria are randomly divided into two groups A and B. Group A: neoadjuvant PDT therapy combined with radical surgery; Group B: radical surgery. This study aims to explore the clinical effectiveness and safety of neoadjuvant photodynamic therapy for cholangiocarcinoma, as well as its role in destroying local tumors and enhancing systemic inflammation.
This is an open-label, parallel group, non-randomized, multicenter phase II study to evaluate the efficacy of spartalizumab (cohorts 1 and 2) and tislelizumab (cohort 3) in monotherapy in patients with PD1-high-expressing tumors.
The purpose of this randomized controlled study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the Radiation-Emitting Metallic Stents (REMS) combined with Trans-Arterial Infusion (TAI) for unresectable hilar cholangiocarcinoma.
This study evaluates the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and efficacy of WM-S1-030 in patients with advanced solid tumors.
This research will have a significant impact on the overall management of those cancer patients and their family members who are at risk for hereditary cancer due to germline inactivation of BAP1. Our study will ultimately facilitate the development of novel screening, prevention and treatment strategies for these individuals with the syndrome. Because the vast majority of UM develop in pre-existing nevi, characterization of individuals at high risk for development of UM will allow closer screening and earlier intervention which would improve the treatment outcome not only for retaining vision but also for overall survival. Similarly in patients with germline BAP1 mutation CM develops in premalignant atypical melanocytic lesions and careful follow up of these patients will improve the outcome of their disease. In addition this study could have impact on the management of patients with personal and/or family history of several other cancers reported in patients with germline BAP1 mutation such as mesothelioma, renal cell carcinoma, cholangiocarcinoma, hepatocellular carcinoma, meningioma and basal cell carcinoma.
The purpose of the study is to observe the effect of PD-1 Antibody（Tislelizumab） Combined With Capecitabine as Adjuvant Therapy to Prevent the Recurrence in High-risk Patients With Cholangiocarcinoma After Curative Resection.
Malignant biliary obstruction usually arise in patients suffering from primary or metastatic hepatobiliary tumors. Approximately 80% of malignant biliary obstruction patients are not eligible for surgical resection, and as such palliative stent insertion is the only treatment option available for most patients. At present, I-125 seeds loaded stent has been developed to improve the stent patency and patients' survival. Hilar malignant biliary obstruction is an important part of malignant biliary obstruction. Hilar cholangiocarcinoma is the most common disease which causes hilar malignant biliary obstruction. Herein, we assessed the clinical and long-term efficacy of I-125 seeds loaded stent insertion for hilar cholangiocarcinoma patients.
