Filter by:Background Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most common primary malignancy in the liver. Chronic infection with hepatitis C virus (HCV) is a significant risk factor and may be associated with inferior outcome. According to the Danish national guidelines, ablation should be offered patients with early HCC (tumor < 3 cm) in a cirrhotic liver, who are not transplant candidates. However, the effect of size of the HCC tumor and Hepatitis C virus (HCV) as etiology are insufficiently investigated. Purposes 1. Investigate association between HCC tumor size and survival and recurrence after ablation. 2. Investigate survival and recurrence after ablation in patients with HCV-related HCC compared with HCC due to other etiologies. Methods This study is based on data from the Danish Liver and Bile Duct Cancer Database (DLGCD) and the Danish Database for Hepatitis B and C (DANHEP) and the laboratory database (DANVIR), which collectively include information on patient characteristics, tumor characteristic, laboratory results, and information regarding ablation, HCV status, and antiviral treatment, respectively. Perspectives Ablation has been widely used for decades, but studies investigating the effect of ablation for HCC in patients with HCV and size of HCC are lacking. This study will contribute considerably to the level of evidence and may impact both Danish and international guidelines for HCC treatment.
This is a phase 2, single-arm trial designed to assess the clinical benefit of treatment with nivolumab administered in patients with untreated, borderline resectable HCC.
This is a single blind, case control, multicenter study jointly developed by Zhongshan Hospital of Fudan University, Shanghai Public Health Clinical Center, Shanghai Xuhui Central Hospital, Qingpu Branch of Zhongshan Hospital Affiliated to Fudan University, and Shanghai Singlera Genomics Company. The enrolled population will include positive group, precancerous lesions and healthy control group, which is expected to enroll 2,430 participants. The primary objective is to establish molecular testing methods for non-invasive screening and early diagnosis of digestive system cancers through ctDNA methylation and mutation, cfDNA and ctDNA fragment size, and end motif based model (for esophageal, gastric, colorectal cancer), and through ctDNA methylation detection, ctDNA low-pass WGS, miRNA7 and CTC detection and analysis technology based model (for hepatocellular carcinoma). The sensitivity and specificity of the models in cancer early detection will be evaluated.
Based on the follow-up data of patients who underwent hepatectomy for HBV-related HCC at the First Affiliated Hospital of Xi'an Jiaotong University. patients who met the enrollment criteria were screened for tumor recurrence and survival for statistical analysis to understand the prognosis of patients and analyze the risk factors affecting their prognosis.
Based on the follow-up data of elderly donation after cardiac death(DCD) donor liver transplant recipients from the CLTR, a database and official website for national data gathering. patients who met the enrollment criteria were screened for postoperative complications and survival for statistical analysis to understand the prognosis of patients and analyze the risk factors affecting their prognosis.
For the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma, liver resection is still one of the optimal options, but the recurrence rate is as high as 70% five years after the operation, and the prognosis of patients with high-risk recurrence factors such as portal vein tumor thrombus and microvascular invasion is even worse, so it is particularly urgent to find effective postoperative adjuvant treatment. The role of PD-1 inhibitors in preventing the postoperative recurrence of HCC requires further study.
This study aims to investigate the feasibility and accuracy of Multi-Detector CT angiography acquired before Trans-arterial Chemo-embolization (TACE) in detecting Hepato-cellular carcinoma feeding vessels compared to DSA angiography acquired during TACE.
evaluate the prognostic value of genetic polymorphisms in HCC Egyptian patients undergoing TACE using lipiodol and doxorubicin.
In Egypt, chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) is the most prevalent cause of hepatoma. The study aims to evaluate the percutaneous radiofrequency ablation (RFA) efficacy as monotherapy in intermediate versus early-stage hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The present study was a single-center, prospective non-randomized, controlled clinical trial in the Interventional Ultrasonography Unit, Tropical Medicine Department, Beni-Suef University Hospitals, between October 2018 and August 2021. Abdominal ultrasonography and triphasic computerized tomography (CT) abdomen were used to diagnose HCC. The abdominal ultrasonography and a dynamic CT scan were performed six weeks following the ablation to assess treatment efficacy.
Considering the treatment landscape with its dynamic algorithms and new approaches of sequencing, it is important to identify patient management patterns and survival outcomes arising from the current standard of care. Based on all these considerations, this multicountry, multicentre, noninterventional, real-world, retrospective study is designed to describe the management patterns, clinical characteristics, possible predictors, and survival outcomes in patients with unresectable HCC. The results of this study might help oncologists in optimal patient selection and sequencing of the systemic therapies.
