Filter by:This is a Phase I study, which means we want to find out what effects, good and/or bad, this combination of drugs may have on the patient and the liver cancer at different dose levels. All patients will have an operation to remove tumors in the liver and may have a pump placed in their abdomen. On this study, both drugs given have been used in other patients for treatment of cholangiocarcinoma and other gastrointestinal cancers. Both drugs are approved by the food and drug administration (FDA) for treatment of liver cancer, but the two drugs have only been combined in a few patients. That means that in this trial we also want to find out if this combination is safe. The study will also evaluate if this treatment works in delaying or stopping the cancer from coming back after surgery.
The investigators study the VEGF signaling in ICC cell lines/human tissues and its mechanism in HCC growth, proliferation and apoptosis.
The purpose of this study is to confirm that prognosis of Intrahepatic Cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) with resection and radiotherapy ,to find which is safe and effective treatment.
The purpose of this study is to use both, liver pump treatment and systemic chemotherapy, to assess the effects this type of treatment has on the patient and the tumor. Liver pump treatment uses a metal pump that is surgically placed in the abdomen and gives chemotherapy directly to the liver. Systemic chemotherapy gives chemotherapy through a vein [intravenously (IV)] and treats the whole body. This type of treatment has been done before and had shown that people with both pump and systemic chemotherapy had improved results. The investigators hope that this combination of treatments improves the response to chemotherapy and reduces the spread of the disease. Another purpose of this study is to learn the clinical importance of a specific type of MRI scan. The investigators would like to see if this type of MRI will help predict the response to the treatment and see if they could help the physician with their treatment plan. These scans will be done at specific time points. The last purpose of this study is to learn more about how the tumor interacts with the chemotherapy. This will be done through a biopsy taken during surgery and blood draws at specific time points. Permission from patients entering the study will be obtained to take normal and tumor liver biopsies at the time of surgery. These samples are voluntary and optional.
To investigate the prognosis due to presence or absence of bile duct resection in intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma that require hepatic lobectomy.
The study enrolls patients with non-resectable or borderline resectable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), intraheaptic choalngiocarcinoma (IHCC) or colorectal cancer metastasis. Patients are not a candidates for liver transplantation and have only limited extrahepatic disease. All patients are treated with radioembolization. Primary endpoint is the percentage of patients that can be downstaged to resectability. Secondary endpoints are radiologic response to radioembolization,tissue response to radiomembolization and systemic immune response and intra-tumoral T-cell response to radioembolization. - Trial with radiotherapy
This study is being done to determine if targeted radiation therapy (stereotactic) can be given to treat liver cancer, for patient who are unable to undergo surgery, over a short period of time with a small amount of side effects.
This study will evaluate the local control rate as well as acute and late toxicity rates of stereotactic body radiotherapy for the treatment of liver metastases and unresectable primary liver tumors such as hepatocellular carcinoma and intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma.
