Filter by:This study utilizes a new method to explore compare the overall survival (OS) and cancer-specific survival (CSS) in patients aged 18-45 years with stage I-II HCC who underwent different types of surgery. The SEER database, which is one of the most comprehensive and authoritative databases concerning cancer, was used to estimate the survival benefit of patients who underwent local tumor destruction (LTD), wedge or segmental resection (WSR), lobectomy resection (LR), liver transplantation (LT), or non-surgery. This study discovered surgery offered a survival benefit compared with non-surgery for young patients with stage I-II HCC. Furtherly, LT is associated with superior survival than WSR, LR and LTD in those patients. Our results facilitate the selection of surgical strategies.
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) can present itself in many forms (size, number of lesions) for the treatment of which a therapeutic panel can be elaborated and layered. If a curative treatment cannot be considered in case of an HCC classified in an intermediate stage, a Transcatheter Arterial Chemoembolization (TACE) can be proposed. In case of a partial response or the treatment of some lesions of a multifocal HCC, a combined treatment by stereotaxic radiotherapy (CK), radiofrequency ablation (RFA) or microwave ablation (MWA) may be initiated in accordance with a decision of the multidisciplinary consultation meeting. The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical outcome of HCC receiving MWA, RFA or CK after downstaging with TACE.
To prove the treatment concept of the use of balloon assistance in transarterial therapy for HCC.
The application of transarterial chemoembolisation (TACE) with drug-eluting beads in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma and its response to the treatment will be observed. The registry has the following objectives: To assess the response to the treatment by standard methods and volumetric analysis as well as trying to determine any predictive response factors To determinate interobserver variability of the methods.
In patients with hgepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and portal vein tumoral thrombosis (PVTT), Sorafenib represents the treatment of choice but more recently, trans-arterial radioembolization (TARE) with yttrium-90 has been also proposed. A considerable percentage of such patients are not only able to achieve stability of the disease, but also to obtain a complete radiological response (CR). The possibility of achieving a CR might allow these patients to be listed for liver transplantation (LT), in order to cure not only the cancer but also the underlying cirrhosis that generated it.
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a common cancer that poses a heavy economic burden on the healthcare system. In Egypt, it is the most common cause of mortality and morbidity-related cancer. Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a metabolic disorder characterized by hyperglycemia. Cancer and type II diabetes (T2DM), the world's two most prevalent diseases, share many overlapping risk factors and predisposing pathological conditions. The exact mechanisms linking those two diseases are yet to be fully understood. In this study, the investigators aim to assess the relationship between Long Non-Coding RNA (lncRNA) H19 and Insulin-Like Growth Factor 1 Receptor (IGF-1R) mRNA gene expressions in the blood samples of HCC & T2DM patients to investigate the probability of the presence of a pathophysiological link between HCC and DM that may become a therapeutic target for both diseases. To the investigator's knowledge, there is currently no human research study investigating both H19 and IGF-1R in both DM and cancer.
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) has a global importance due to its high rate of progression and high mortality rates. Significant risk factors for the development of HCC are metabolic syndrome, obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM). Dysregulation of adipose tissue derived hormones(adipocytokines/adipokines) might also be involved in obesity-related liver carcinogenesis & due to the wide spectrum of visfatin and vaspin activities ,we focus in this study on their potential role in patients with HCV-related liver cirrhosis with and without HCC on top.
An open-label multi-center phase II study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of anti-PD-1/CTLA-4 bispecific antibody AK104 alone or in combination with lenvatinib in patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the image quality and clinical feasibility of double low-dose liver computed tomography using a deep-learning-based iodine contrast boosting algorithm in participants at high risk for hepatocellular carcinoma.
The purpose of this study is to compare the safety and efficacy of combined therapy with conventional transarterial chemoembolization (cTACE) + microwave ablation (MWA) versus only TACE or MWA for treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) >3-<5 cm.
