Filter by:Primary liver cancer is currently the fourth most common malignant tumor and the second leading cause of tumor mortality in China, posing a serious threat to the lives and health of the Chinese people . At present, non-surgical treatment methods are often used, such as radiofrequency ablation (RFA), Transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE), radiation therapy, and systemic anti-tumor therapy. However, whether it is surgical treatment or non-surgical treatment, commonly used liver cancer related biomarkers in clinical practice during the evaluation of treatment efficacy or regular follow-up of patients include AFP, AFP-L3%, DCP, etc. , but there are no reports on whether AKR1B10 can be used for the efficacy evaluation of these treatment methods.Therefore, this project aims to explore the clinical value of AKR1B10 in evaluating the efficacy of liver cancer treatment.
This study intends to evaluate the efficacy and safety of cryoablation combined with Cardonilizumab and Bevacizumab in hepatocellular carcinoma with pulmonary metastases.
This phase II trial compares the impact of subcutaneous (SC) nivolumab given in an in-home setting to an in-clinic setting on cancer care and quality of life. Currently, most drug-related cancer care is conducted in clinic type centers or hospitals which may isolate patients from family, friends and familiar surroundings for many hours per day. This separation adds to the physical, emotional, social, and financial burden for patients and their families. Traveling to and from medical facilities costs time, money, and effort and can be a disadvantage to patients living in rural areas, those with low incomes or poor access to transport. Studies have shown that cancer patients often feel more comfortable and secure being cared for in their own home environments. SC nivolumab in-home treatment may be safe, tolerable and/or effective when compared to in-clinic treatment and may reduce the burden of cancer and improve the quality of life in cancer patients.
This retrospective observational study aimed to assess potential improvements associated with systemic therapies in patients receiving transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) for initially unresectable HCC.
Abdominal lymph node metastasis (LNM) is one of the major modes of extrahepatic metastasis in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Immunotherapy targeting the PD-1/PD-L1 checkpoints combined with targeted therapy is the standard treatment for HCC with abdominal LNM, but the outcome remains very poor, with an objective response rate of 5% to 30%. Previous studies have demonstrated that stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) is an effective local treatment for HCC with abdominal LNM, with a high response rate of 60% to 80%. However, intrahepatic dissemination and distant metastasis remains the major recurrence pattern after SBRT in these patients, suggesting radiotherapy should be combined with systematic treatment. Recently, the combination of immunotherapy with SBRT has shown promising activity in HCC. The aim of this study was to investigate the efficacy and safety of SBRT followed by adebrelimab (an anti-PD-L1 antibody) and lenvatinib in HCC patients with portal abdominal LNM.
Recent years have seen significant advancements in the treatment landscape of advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), with the emergence of targeted and immunotherapy strategies reshaping first-line therapy. Sorafenib, a multi-targeted tyrosine kinase inhibitor, initially set the standard, followed by approvals for lenvatinib, regorafenib, cabozantinib, and ramucirumab. Immunotherapy, particularly combinations like atezolizumab with bevacizumab, has shown superior efficacy over sorafenib. Despite these advances, second-line therapies offer limited progression-free survival (mPFS: 2-3 months), necessitating new approaches. Radiotherapy, bolstered by technological advancements, has shown promise. Techniques like stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) combined with PD-1 inhibitors achieve significant response rates and survival benefits. Combining radiotherapy with targeted immunotherapy has also demonstrated improved outcomes. Radiotherapy, especially in oligometastatic HCC, is increasingly favored due to its ability to enhance local control without increasing toxicity. These developments underscore the evolving landscape of HCC treatment towards personalized and multimodal approaches.
The investigators are trying to learn more about the personal perceptions and experiences regarding the needs of patients with liver cancer to help improve the care of all patients. The investigators would like to know whether there are needs that patients have or are aware of, especially those needs that the investigators have not been able to address. The investigators aim to develop a program that helps participants and participant's families to navigate the process of being diagnosed with liver cancer and receiving treatment.
This prospective, single-arm study was aimed to evaluate the efficacy of recombinant human adenovirus type 5 injection combined with tislelizumab and lenvatinib in the treatment of advanced hepatocellular carcinoma. The recombinant human adenovirus type 5 was administered intratumorally on day 1 and 5 in cycle 1 and cycle 2. Lenvatinib was administered orally once daily started on day 1 of cycle 1 .Tislelizumab was administered intravenously every 3 week started on day 1 of cycle 3. The patient accepted the therapy until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity occurred or meet the end point of the study. The primary end point was ORR assessed by investigator using RECIST v1.1 .
The aim of these study to determine the prevalence of hepatitis Delta virus (HDV) infections and the prognosis of HDV patients in Turkey's southeast. The investigators intend to arrange training sessions for 250 family physicians in Diyarbakir, Batman, Mardin, and Sanliurfa in order to determine those goals. The investigators will talk about diagnosing hepatitis B virus (HBV), HDV, hepatitis C virus (HCV), and Human Immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infections during these events. To ensure that patients with simultaneous HDV infection are evaluated for HIV/HCV and to detect liver fibrosis with a non-invasive method.
For early-stage hepatocellular carcinoma, i.e. Barcelona Clinical Liver Cancer Stage 0, ablation is the standard treatment with a comparable prognosis and less risk of ablation compared with liver resection. However, ablation is demanding on the surgeon and patients often face early recurrence if ablation is not complete. Therefore, it is necessary to find reasonable adjuvant treatment to consolidate the effect of microwave therapy.
