Filter by:The purpose of this study is to compare the therapeutic outcomes and safety of the study patients who received radiofrequency ablation (RFA) using separable clustered electrodes with those of a matched historical control group who had received RFA using multiple internally-cooled electrodes.
Increasing rates of highly malignant hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and biliary tract cancers (GBTC) observed in Western populations may be related to obesogenic lifestyle factors and their metabolic consequences, such as metabolic syndrome (MetS), inflammation and altered production of bile acids (BA). Such lifestyle behaviours may induce changes in the gut microflora which in turn affect BA profiles, increasing their carcinogenicity. Some elevated BA may be oncogenic in exposed liver, bile ducts and gall bladder. Vertical sleeve gastrectomy may change bile acid composition. The aims of this study are: 1. whether specific presurgical bila acid profiles are predictive of efficacy of vertical sleeve gastrectomy, reflective of liver function and metabolic dysfunction; 2. whether specific presurgical bile acid profiles are predictive of the efficacy of sleeve gastrectomy
The aim of our study was to elucidate the difference in the rates of complication, hospitalization days, medical expenses, MRI showed that the degree of tumor necrosis, and overall survival rates of the therapies between PEI, MVA and RFA, and make the standard for minimally invasive treatment of very early stage HCC.
The aim of this study is to establish a platform of detecting and sorting circulating tumor stem cells from peripheral blood in HCC patients; to investigate the relationship between circulating tumor stem cells and their effects on postoperative recurrence and metastasis, in order to provide a new therapeutic target for hepatocellular carcinoma treatment.
Fusion imaging of US and MRI is very helpful for interventional procedure such as radiofrequency ablation in liver. However, manual registration of US and magnetic resonance (MR) imaging is somewhat time-consuming and difficult for less-experienced physicians. Recently, automatic registration function was developed to help the fusion of US and CT/MRI imaging. The purpose of this trial is to compare the registration time and accuracy of manual registration system and automatic registration system.
The purpose of this study is to characterize the safety and tolerability and determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) or the recommended fixed dose of the combinations of mogamulizumab and nivolumab in subjects with locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors.
This is a efficacy and safety study of pembrolizumab (MK-3475, KEYTRUDA®) as monotherapy in participants with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in two cohorts: participants with advanced HCC and with no curative option after disease progression on sorafenib or intolerance of sorafenib (Cohort 1) or who had not received treatment for systemic disease (Cohort 2). Study participants may receive pembrolizumab once every 3 weeks for up to 35 initial cycles (up to approximately 2 years) and a potential additional 17 cycles in a re-treatment phase (approximately an additional 1 year of treatment) . The primary objective of this study is to determine the Objective Response Rate (ORR) of pembrolizumab given as monotherapy in participants with HCC. Effective with Amendment 7: Upon study completion, participants are discontinued and may be enrolled in a pembrolizumab extension study, if available.
This is a study of pembrolizumab (MK-3475) in participants with previously systemically treated advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The primary objectives of this study are to determine 1) Progression-Free Survival (PFS) and 2) Overall Survival (OS) of pembrolizumab plus best supportive care (BSC) compared with placebo plus BSC. The primary hypotheses of this study are: 1) pembrolizumab plus BSC prolongs PFS per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1, assessed by Blinded Independent Central Review compared to placebo plus BSC, and 2) pembrolizumab plus BSC improves OS compared with placebo plus BSC. Effective with Amendment 4: Upon study completion, participants are discontinued and may be enrolled in a pembrolizumab extension study, if available.
Prospective multicenter cohort recruiting consecutive patients from 7 hospitals in Andalusia, southern Spain, according to following criteria: 1) HIV infection, 2) Chronic active HCV infection, 3) Older than 18 years, 4) New diagnosis of liver cirrhosis on the basis of a liver stiffness above 14 kiloPascals, 5) No previous or concomitant decompensation of liver disease. Patients are prospectively followed-up according to a uniform protocol of care. Epidemiological, clinical and laboratory variables are periodically recorded. The primary outcomes are the emergence of a liver decompensation (including hepatocellular carcinoma), liver transplant or death. The predictors of these outcomes are analyzed.
Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC) recurrence rate is high among liver transplant patients, while treatment measures are limited. This study plans to recruit 39 subjects with Hepatitis B virus (HBV) related HCC after liver transplantation. The objective of the study is to assess the safety, tolerability and effectiveness of the HBV specific T cell receptor (HBV/TCR) redirected T cell in the target population.
