Filter by: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.
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most common type of primary liver cancer and is a leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide. The prognosis of HCC remains poor, with a 5-year survival rate of 18%. Risk factors for HCC include viral infection, autoimmune hepatitis, chronic alcohol use or metabolic fatty liver disease, obesity, and diabetes mellitus.
Clinically significant portal hypertension limits the therapeutic options for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), which is closely associated with patient prognosis. HCC patients with CPSH are heterogeneous and treatment allocation remains controversial. The aim of this study was to compare the survival benefits of liver resection (LR) and transarterial chemoembolisation (TACE) in these populations.
This is a single-center, prospective, open-labeled, single-arm, interventional study to evaluate liver reserve and tumor response using Ga-68 Dolacga positron emission tomography and the safety of the investigational product in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma before and after proton therapy.
The goal of this double-blind clinical trial is to compare the efficacy of octreotide versus placebo in laparoscopic hepatectomy surgery in patients diagnosed with resectable hepatocarcinoma or liver metastases. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Decrease in intraoperative bleeding measured in ml of blood lost. - Decrease in the need for blood transfusion and use of intraoperative vasoactive drugs. Participants will receive octreotide or placebo after signing the informed consent form.
To evaluate the ability of Erector spina Plane Block decrease postoperative pain and analgesia requirements in patients undergoing percutaneous Radiofrequency ablation of Hepatocellular Carcinomas.
This is a phase 2 open-labeled study to compare the Ga68-Dolacga positron emission tomography with computer tomography volumetry and indocyanine green retention test for measurement of liver reserve among scheduled surgery operation patients.
Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection and the resulting coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) have afflicted tens of millions of people in a worldwide pandemic. Considering its high mortality and rapid spread, an effective vaccine is urgently needed to control this pandemic. Recently, mass vaccination campaigns using newly approved vaccines, ranging from conventional viral and protein-based vaccines to those that are more cutting edge, including DNA- and mRNA-based vaccines are beginning in many parts of the world. Randomized clinical trials of different vaccines reported efficacies for preventing COVID-19 in the range of 50% to 95%. Although these randomized clinical trials are considered the "gold standard" for evaluating intervention effects, they have notable limitations of sample size and subgroup analysis, restrictive inclusion criteria, and a highly controlled setting that may not be replicated in a mass vaccine rollout. The aim of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, immunogenicity, and efficacy of different vaccines against COVID-19 under real-world practice conditions.
There is a high prevalence of hepatic cirrhosis in patients with hepatocellular carcinomas (HCC), or chemotherapy-induced hepatic atrophy or hepatosteatosis in patients with liver metastases associated with high risk of radiation-induced liver disease (RILD) after stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT). MRI-SPION radiotherapy planning will facilitate detection and maximize avoidance of residual functionally active hepatic parenchyma from over-the-threshold irradiation thus increasing safety of liver SBRT in patients with pre-existing liver conditions. The investigators have previously demonstrated that liver SBRT with SPECT/CT functional treatment planning utilizing 99mTc sulfur colloid in transplant eligible patients associated with minimal hepatotoxicity and without hastening of advanced hepatic cirrhosis progression while patients await liver transplant. Switching from nuclear medicine to an MR-Linac-SPION based quantitative treatment-planning platform will substantially improve diagnostic accuracy in defining safe volumes of residual functional hepatic parenchyma for liver SBRT planning on MR-Linac.
