Filter by:Transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) is considered the gold standard for treating intermediate-stage hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). However, any treatment guidelines do not specify the criteria for repeating TACE. The study,conducted in Europe ，recently published in the journal of Hepatology shows the ART score of >=2.5 prior the second TACE identifies patients with a dismal prognosis who may not profit from further TACE sessions. However,in clinical practice，we also found some patients who showed TACE-resistant at the beginning of treatment may access to get objective response of retreatment with transcatheter arterial infusion (TAI). So the investigators conduct this prospective,randomized controlled study to find out whether the patient who showed TACE-resistant can obtain survival benefit from retreatment with TAI.
TACE is frequently offered to patients with baseline hepatic dysfunction with the purpose of diminishing hepatic tumor burden while patients await transplantation. Without this therapeutic measure, disease may progress beyond UNOS T2 criteria required for organ allocation. The purpose of the study is to determine whether transarterial chemoembolization using doxorubicin-eluting beads (DEB-TACE) can be used safely and effectively to treat patients with liver-only hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and baseline hepatic dysfunction.
Phase 1: Assessment of safety and tolerability of ADI-PEG 20 in combination with folinic acid (leucovorin), fluorouracil and oxaliplatin (FOLFOX) in advanced GI malignancies. Phase 2: Assessment of the objective response rate (ORR), measured by RECIST 1.1 criteria as assessed by blinded independent central review (BICR).
A study of ADI-PEG 20 (pegylated arginine deiminase), an arginine degrading enzyme in patients with histologically proven advanced malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM), advanced peritoneal mesothelioma (in dose escalation cohort only), non-squamous non-small cell lung carcinoma stage IIIB/IV (NSCLC), metastatic uveal melanoma, hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), glioma and sarcomatoid cancers
Primary Phase I:To determine dose limiting toxicities and maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of the oral administration of hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) in conjunction with transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) in treating hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). A conventional 3+3 design will be utilized. Primary Phase II: To evaluate the complete response rate in a cohort of patients treated at the MTD, A Simon's Optimal Two-stage design will be utilized.
This is a two-arm, open-label, prospective, multi-center, randomized, active-controlled clinical trial to assess efficacy and safety of TheraSphere in comparison to standard of care therapy (sorafenib) in the treatment of participants with inoperable liver cancer and blockage of the portal vein.
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the most common solid cancers worldwide, and chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is the most common etiology of HCC in Asia. Transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) is the standard treatment for patients with unresectable HCC in the BCLC intermediate stage, but the HCC recurrence rates and long-term mortality rates are quite high. These intermediate-staged HCC patients usually need repeated TACE due to tumor recurrence, and they may die of HCC progression or liver decompensation after repeated TACE. Improved liver function and decreased liver disease progression due to oral antiviral therapy have been proven to be effective for chronic hepatitis B, and oral antiviral therapy may keep better liver reserve and provide better chance for HCC patients received TACE. In addition, chronic HBV infection is one of the most important factors for HCC development, and antiviral therapy can improve the outcomes after curative treatment. However, the evidence of improving outcomes of HCC patients underwent TACE by oral antiviral therapy is lacking. Moreover, Tenofovir Disoproxil Fumarate (TDF) is one of the most potent oral antiviral agents, and its safety and very low long-term viral resistance rate have been also reported. There is no study to evaluate the impacts of TDF for HBV-related HCC patients underwent TACE. Until now, routine antiviral therapy for HBV-related HCC patients underwent TACE has still not been recommended by current guidelines. The hypothesis of this study is that a potent oral antiviral therapy for patients with HBV-related HCC patients receiving TACE improve patients' outcomes
The objective is to evaluate the safety and therapeutic effect of combined hyperthermia and TACE for unresectable HCC
The main objective is to evaluate the value of dynamic contrast-enhanced Magnetic Resonance Imaging (DCE-MRI) in prediction of response of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) to treatment with Sorafenib assessed by mRECIST.
A retrospective study based on analysis of medical records of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma treated at the Hospital Sírio-Libanês (Sao Paulo-Brazil) between 2001 and 2011 with diagnosis confirmed by imaging or histological specimen underwent surgical resection with curative intent. The study aims to determine the prognostic value of vascular complications related to cancer and to evaluate the survival rate of these patients, comparing the data with those reported in the literature.
