Filter by:Fibroblast activation protein (FAP) is a serine protease that belongs to the dipeptidyl peptidase-IV (DPP-IV) family located in fbroblast membranes. FAP is overexpressed in the cancer-associated fbroblasts (CAFs) of 90% of epithelial carcinomas, including primary and metastatic liver cancer. We aim to conduct a prospective study to investigate the diagnostic perfoemance of 18F-FAPI PET/CT in evaluating suspicious liver mass without FDG avidity.
A deep learning-based de-noising (DLD) reconstruction algorithm (ClariCT.AI) has the potential to reduce image noise and improve image quality. This capability of the CliriCT.AI program might enable dose reduction for contrast-enhanced liver CT examination. In this prospective multicenter study, whether the ClariCT.AI program can reduce the noise level of low-dose contrast-enhanced liver CT (LDCT) data and therefore, can provide comparable image quality to the standard dose of contrast-enhanced liver CT (SDCT) images will be evaluated. The aim of this study is to compare image quality and diagnostic capability in detecting malignant tumors of LDCT with DLD to those of SDCT with MBIR using the predefined non-inferiority margin.
To explore the relationship between SARS-CoV-2 infection in different time before operation and postoperative main complications (mortality, main pulmonary and cardiovascular complications) 30 days after operation; To determine the best timing of surgery after SARS-CoV-2 infection.
This study aims to collect biospecimens and explore the correlation of genomics and prognosis in alimentary tract cancers.
The aim of the study is to investigate if iv iron formulation improve recovery after surgery with blood loss. Post-operative anaemia is a common debilitating condition after major surgery due to a combination of preoperative iron deficiency anaemia (IDA) and per-operative blood loss. Median blood loss following hepatopancreatobiliary (HPB) and complex aortic surgery typically range between 500-1000 ml. Bioavailability of iron may be a rate limiting factor in erythropoiesis in anaemia secondary to blood loss. For the IRIS trial, it is hypothesized that intravenously (iv) administered Ferric Carboxymaltose after a per-operative blood loss of 400-4000 ml, improves post-operative recovery and reduces the RBC transfusion. Patients scheduled for elective HPB surgery or complex aortic surgery will be screened for eligibility and recruited into the study. By the end of the surgical procedure, if blood loss is estimated to 400-4000 ml, the patient is randomized 1:1 to iv 1000 mg Ferric Carboxymaltose or placebo. The primary endpoint is a composite of death, number of RBC transfusions, post-operative severe anemia (Hb <80 g/L) and FACT-An Quality of life (QoL) five weeks after surgery, assessed by win ratio. The trial will also examine effects on; a) levels of Hb; b) markers of erythropoiesis and iron bioavailability; c) post-operative complications; d) post-operative recovery; e) performance status; f) subgroups based on type of surgery and degree of anemia and iron deficiency; g) re-admissions; h) long term outcome based on patient medical records and i) how post-operative recovery differs between those with low (<400 ml), high (400-4000 ml) and very high (>4000 ml) per-operative blood loss. Recruitment will continue until 338 patients are randomized or 304 have completed the five week follow up The coordinating center of the trial is the Department of Surgery at Uppsala University Hospital. Participating sites are also Linköping University Hospital and Lund University Hospital, all in Sweden. Other sites may be added.
To learn if using the TriNav Infusion System (TriNav catheter) for the injection of the surrogate/test dose during the planning part of the radioembolization procedure and your actual treatment with the radioactive microspheres match each other better than the standard catheter.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of mRNA vaccine for HBV-positive Advanced Hepatocellular Carcinoma.
Background: This study aims to test whether 5% lidocaine patches can reduce Radiofrequency ablation-induced pain. Methods: The study will enroll patients with hepatocellular carcinoma and schedule a radiofrequency ablation procedure. 200 patients will be invited to allocate randomly into study or control groups: pretreatment with a 5% lidocaine patch (LidotopⓇ) (Group A); pretreatment with a placebo patch (Group B); The skin patch is applied before Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) while admission, and is changed every day till discharge. Pain severity is evaluated by a visual analog scale using a 10-point scale recorded by a study nurse before RFA and after the procedure. The demographic data, hepatocellular carcinoma characteristics, analgesics usage, patient satisfaction with pain control, and visual analog scale will be compared between the two groups. Anticipated results: Pretreatment with 5% lidocaine patches is an effective and straight method of reducing Radiofrequency ablation-induced pain to reduce analgesics usage and improve patient satisfaction with pain control.
This trial will provide the maximum tolerated dose for radiation therapy for liver tumors and describe the toxicity profile using the vGRID therapy technique. Based on trials using this type of radiation in other cancers demonstrating low toxicity rates even with very high radiation doses and high efficacy, it is likely that vGRID therapy in this trial will be well tolerated and allow dose escalation beyond currently common doses for liver tumors.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about advanced liver and bile duct cancers. The main question it aims to answer is: If the combination of Domvanalimab and Zimberelimab are effective in treating advanced hepatobiliary cancers that have failed prior treatment.
