Filter by:This trial was designed to investigate whether the survival outcome, response rate and safety of hepatic arterial infusion of oxaliplatin, fluorouracil/leucovorin regimens for patients with Barcelona-Clinic Liver Cancer (BCLC)-C stage hepatocellular carcinoma was superior than those of the standard treatment with sorafenib or not.
The main purpose of this trial is to investigate the safety and tolerability of TAEST16001(TCR Affinity Enhancing Specific T cell Therapy)in the multi-line treatment failed advanced solid tumors except non small cell lung cancer,including liver cancer,gastric cancer,esophageal cancer,bone and soft tissue tumors,breast cancer, bladder carcinoma,prostate carcinoma,thyroid cancer, ovarian cancer and so on. The patients must meet the two criteria: human leukocyte antigens (HLA)-A*0201+ and NY-ESO-1 positive cells≥25% by immunohistochemistry.
To our knowledge, it has not been analyze whether 3D printed liver model would improve the perception of a given liver tumor or the precision of operation planning in liver surgery. We design this prospective controlled trial to test whether the 3D-printed patient specific liver model could be more informative than standard MDCT (multi-row detector computed tomography ) and 3D visualization system in predicting the surgical anatomy of liver.
Patients with resectable liver metastases of colorectal origin will be assigned to laparoscopic liver resection or conventional open liver surgery. Blood samples will be drawn preoperatively and 24 hours after resection. Determination of Interleukin-6 (IL-6) and IL-8 will be done to assess the stress response between open and laparoscopic liver resection (Elisa test). The Messenger Ribonucleic Acid (mRNA) of inflammation related factors (cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) and Matrix metalloproteinase (MMP-9)), angiogenesis related factor (vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and hypoxia induced factor-1 (HIF-1)) in tumor tissue and normal liver parenchyma will be detected by real-time real time-Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-PCR).
Background: Biliary tract cancers are rare but they are serious. Researchers want to see if a certain drug helps the immune system fight cancer cells. The drug is called pembrolizumab. It may work even better with two chemotherapy drugs that are widely used to treat gastrointestinal cancers. Objective: To study if pembrolizumab given with capecitabine and oxaliplatin (CAPOX) increases the time it takes for a person's biliary tract cancer to get worse. Eligibility: People age 18 and older with previously treated biliary tract cancer that has spread to other parts of the body Design: Participants will be screened with tests as part of their regular cancer care. Each study cycle is 3 weeks. For 6 cycles, participants will: Get pembrolizumab and oxaliplatin on day 1 of each cycle. They will be given in an intravenous (IV) catheter. Take capecitabine by mouth for 2 weeks then have 1 week without it. Participants will complete a patient diary. Starting with cycle 7, participants will get only pembrolizumab. They will get it once every 3 weeks. On day 1 of every cycle, participants will have: Physical exam Review of symptoms and how well they do normal activities Blood tests Every 9 weeks, they will have a scan. Participants may have tumor samples taken. Participants will have a final visit about 1 month after they stop the study drug. After that, they will be contacted by phone or email yearly.
This phase III, randomized, prospective clinical study, aiming to compare the analgesic effects of celecoxib, parecoxib, and oxycodone in patients with inoperable hepatic carcinoma undergoing TACE procedure in postoperative pain control.
This study evaluates the intratumoral administration of escalating doses of a novel, experimental drug, INT230-6. The study is being conducted in patients with several types of refractory cancers including those at the surface of the skin (breast, squamous cell, head and neck) and tumors within the body such (pancreatic, colon, liver, lung, etc.). Sponsor also plans to test INT230-6 in combination with anti-PD-1 and anti-CTLA-4 antibodies.
The Engagement of Patients with Advanced Cancer is an intervention that utilizes well-trained lay health coaches to engage patients and their families in goals of care and shared decision-making after a diagnosis of advanced cancer. Although lay health workers have never been tested in this role, we hypothesize that lay health workers can feasibly improve goals of care documentation and help to reduce unwanted healthcare utilization at the end of life for Veterans diagnosed with new advanced stages of cancer and those diagnosed with recurrent disease.
Objective: 1. To study the factors that influence the 3- year recurrence of liver carcinoma after surgery 2. To study the related factors affecting recurrence of liver carcinoma after surgery
Only a small proportion of patients with biliary obstruction caused by hepatopancreatobiliary malignancies are suitable for surgical resection. Therefore, most patients with malignant biliary obstruction will need palliation of their obstructive jaundice to relieve the symptoms and prevent life threatening complications such as biliary sepsis. The endoscopic or percutaneous/transhepatic routes, such as endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) and percutaneous transhepatic cholangiography (PTC), and stents are accepted approaches for the relief of jaundice in malignant biliary obstruction. Improvement in the bilirubin level is also essential before palliative chemotherapy is considered in these patients. However, tumor ingrowth still remains a major cause of obstruction. In this trial, the investigators will use HabibTM EndoHPB (EMcision Ltd., UK) catheter which was used for the endobiliary radiofrequency ablation (RFA) treatment as a form of neoadjuvant therapy in hepatopancreatobiliary adenocarcinoma.
