Filter by:The purpose of this study is to establish molecular subtyping of HCC.
This study uses to suppress the growth of tumors, extend the patient's survival time and improve the quality of life as much as possible. Through the treatment, the patient is given the chance to undergo surgical resection, thereby more effectively prolonging the OS. Apatinib is a small-molecule VEGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor. It mainly treats malignant tumors by inhibiting VEGFR and exerting anti-angiogenic effects. Preclinical studies have shown that its anti-tumor effect is better than that of the similar drug PTK787. Phase II studies of hepatocellular carcinoma have initially demonstrated the effectiveness and safety of apatinib in the treatment of advanced HCC. Radiotherapy of tumors and portal vein tumor thrombi can promote further tumor shrinkage, and at the same time, the physiological basis for the recanalization of the original tumor thrombus itself will result in necrosis and fibrosis of the tumor thrombus, completely blocking the blood supply to the tumor portal vein. As a result, blood supply to the other side of the portal vein increases, and hepatocyte regeneration in a healthy liver is promoted, so that the patient can obtain surgical opportunities. Based on the therapeutic potential of apatinib and radiotherapy, we designed a prospective exploratory clinical study of this patient with advanced liver cancer.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of traditional Chinese medicine Babaodan on tumor recurrence of hepatocellular carcinoma after curative resection, as well as the safety of this treatment

TACE embolized tumor artery blood supply to inhibit tumor growth and shrink tumors. Based on the therapeutic potential of apatinib, and TACE in their respective tumors, we designed a prospective exploratory clinical study of this patient with advanced liver cancer.
Hepatocellular carcinoma represents the commonest primary cancer of the liver.serum lactate dehydrogenase is an indirect marker of tumor hypoxia,angioneogenesis and worse prognosis.
The aim of this study is to elucidate the utility of the immune checkpoint inhibitor pembrolizumab in preventing the recurrence of HCC when administered before and after curative surgery or ablation.
Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of preoperative liver stiffness measurement(LSM) by FibroScan in predicting the progress of liver fibrosis and prognosis after transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Background: Progress of liver fibrosis and liver failure and related poor prognosis after TACE which are not completely predictable by current method including Child-Pugh Classification. LSM is used to calculate the degree of liver fibrosis and is affected by several liver injury, e.g. elevated Alanine aminotransferase（ALT）, Aspartate transaminase(AST) and Bilirubin et al. The investigators assume that LSM could be use to predict progress of liver fibrosis and adverse effects after TACE in HCC. Methods: At least 200 patients will be recruited in this prospective observational study with preoperative LSM, demographic, laboratory, radiological and other treatment-related factors. Participants will be followed up till death or to the end of study no matter the liver failure occurs or not. Data will be analyzed to build a mathematical predicting model. Research hypothesis：TACE is related to progress of liver fibrosis and a mathematical model with LSM is able to predict the risk of liver failure and prognosis in HCC.
Hepatocellular carcinoma is a highly malignant tumor that is progressing rapidly. Hepatic arterial embolization chemotherapy (TACE) is a common method for the treatment of unresectable of hepatocellular carcinoma.But for patients with > 10cm hepatocellular carcinoma, the intervention effect was not satisfied.The cyberknife is a kind of stereotactic radiotherapy which can track the movement of tumor and monitor the position deviation of tumor in real time.This stuy is aimed to observe the efficiency and safety of the combination of TACE and cyberknife in the treatment of massive hepatocellular carcinoma.
to observe the outcome of hepatocellular carcinoma patients under the combination treatment of transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) and CpG DNA
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most common primary liver cancer and is the third leading cause of cancer that related death in the worldwide. Although, current most of doctors and laboratorians of HCC diagnoses bases are medical imaging such ultrasound, MRI, CT-scan and laboratory analyses tests for serum tumor markers such as alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) which characterized by very low of sensitivity in the detection of HCC. Last two decades, scientists was focused researches of small molecules called MicroRNAs which are produced by human cells and can be released in the blood. MicroRNAs are class of (20 - 25 nucleotide in length) non-coding RNAs, and its emerging non-invasive diagnostic biomarker for cancer diagnosing, screening, monitoring treatment and to predict prognosis. A number of studies exposed an abnormal expression of human serum MicroRNAs in many tumors such as liver, pancreatic and colorectal carcinoma. Recently, MicroRNAs have a role in the development of HCC, but still it is unknown if these small molecules will be used as biomarker for diagnosis and survival of HCC. The aim of this study is to establish MicroRNAs as biomarkers for diagnostic tool of HCC patients and to compare to circulating levels of MicroRNAs in chronic liver diseases patients and health volunteers and those HCC patients and To determine the clinical utility of MicroRNAs as a diagnostic maker of hepatocellular carcinoma comparing with alpha fetoprotein the current marker of (HCC).
