Filter by:This trial is a single arm, non-randomized prospective trial. The objective of this trial is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the HistoSonics System for the treatment of primary or metastatic tumors located in the liver. The co-primary safety and efficacy endpoints must be met for the trial to be successful.
This study is being done to look at how effective the drug, atezolizumab, with or without the drug bevacizumab, is for people with inoperable liver cancer or non-small lung cancer that has spread to the liver. This will be done by looking at the duration of time from starting the study drug(s) until the cancer worsens in study participants. This study will collect blood and tumor tissue samples from participants to look at changes to their tumor(s) before and after receiving atezolizumab and/or bevacizumab.
Colorectal cancer is the second deadliest malignant tumor worldwide, and liver is the most common site of hematogenic metastasis of Colorectal cancer. Surgery is an effective treatment for colorectal cancer with liver metastasis, however, only 10%-20% of patients with liver metastasis are feasible for radical surgical resection. Many single-center retrospective studies have demonstrated that thermal ablation for liver metastases is comparable to surgery. Chemotherapy can kill the microscopic cancer foci of the liver. The timing of ablation-related chemotherapeutic administration still needs to be explained. The purpose of this study was to compare the clinical efficacy of thermal ablation or combined with perioperative chemotherapy and postoperative chemotherapy in the treatment of colorectal cancer with liver metastasis.
The prognosis of patients with metastatic right-sided colon cancer is worse than that of patients with metastatic left-sided cancer. Different guidelines have different recommendations on specific conversion therapy for colorectal liver metastases. The United States NCCN guidelines do not recommend standard chemotherapy combined with anti EGFR monoclonal antibody for patients with right colon cancer. The European ESMO guidelines recommend that patients with Ras / BRAF wild-type right-sided colon cancer should first consider three drugs ± bevacizumab, but considering the objective response rate results, standard chemotherapy + anti EGFR monoclonal antibody is still one of the choices. China CSCO guidelines recommend standard chemotherapy ± bevacizumab, and also recommend standard chemotherapy + cetuximab for patients with right-sided colon cancer. Therefore, the targeted therapy for RAS / BRAF wild-type metastatic right colon cancer is still controversial. Therefore, we are ready to carry out the clinical trial of cetuximab and bevacizumab in conversion therapy for RAS / BRAF wild-type metastatic right colon cancer. The conversion resection rate is the primary point, and the objective response rate, perioperative safety and long-term survival are the secondary points.
establishment and validation of the prediction model of avastin plus chemotherapy as first line treatment in simultaneous ras mutant unresectable CRLM patients
Liver resection is the only curative treatment for patients with colorectal liver metastases (CRLM). Most patients undergo chemotherapy (CT) before liver surgery. CT objectively decreases patient functional capacity. It has already been demonstrated that a structured training program carried out during the 4 weeks following CT, while the patient is waiting for liver resection, is able to return the functional capacity to baseline levels. Despite this, multimodal prehabilitation programs (MPP) during preoperative CT have not been evaluated or implemented. The aim of this study is to investigate whether a 16-week MPP applied during and following CT in CRLM patients will result in a significant increase in physical fitness when compared to those that undergo MPP only during the 4-weeks, between the end of CT and liver resection.
For patients with unresectable colorectal cancer liver metastases, preclinical studies have shown that after the resistance of cetuximab, the treatment sensitivity can be restored by stopping cetuximab for a period of time. This is called the cetuximab re-challenge. And the circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) test is reported a biomarker for the efficacy of cetuximab rechallenge. However, there is still no randomized controlled trial for verification. This study aims at patients after the first-line treatment of cetuximab has progressed. After the second-line non-cetuximab treatment has progressed, the effects of re-application of combined with cetuximab and chemotherapy alone are compared to verify the re-challenge effect.
Liver metastasis may not be detected by CT and MRI due to their small size while they can be detected by EUS. Also, EUS-FNA has a great impact in improving the diagnostic accuracy of EUS. Objectives: To assess the feasibility of EUS in the detection of occult small hepatic focal lesions at the time of primary tumor staging, not seen by CT or MRI.
Uveal melanoma is the most common primary intraocular malignancy in adults. Despite successful control of the primary tumour, metastatic disease will develop in approximately 35%-50% of the patients within 10 years. The liver is the most common site for metastases, and about 50% of the patients will have isolated liver metastases. Isolated hepatic perfusion is a regional treatment where the liver is completely isolated from the systemic circulation, allowing a high concentration of chemotherapy to be perfused through the liver with minimal systemic exposure. The introduction of modern immunotherapy in the treatment arsenal for cutaneous melanoma also creates hope for patients with uveal melanoma metastases. However, the results of immunotherapy have so far been disappointing. The reason for the low efficacy could be that uveal melanoma develops in the immune privileged eye. The hypothesis in this trial is that isolated hepatic perfusion with melphalan causes an immunogenic type of cell death by local tumour destruction while leaving the immune-system intact. This will cause an activation of the immune-system and the addition of ipilimumab and nivolumab will enhance this effect, ultimately increasing the treatment efficacy. The primary objective of this trial is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of isolated hepatic perfusion together with ipilimumab and nivolumab when given at the same time or as a sequenced regimen. The study design is a phase I randomized controlled, multicentre, open-label trial. Active follow-up will be performed for 2 years. Patients will be randomized after diagnoses of metastatic disease to one of the following treatment arms: Arm A. Patients will be treated with IHP followed by 4 courses of ipilimumab 3mg/kg and nivolumab 1mg/kg every third week followed by continued nivolumab 480mg q4w up to 1 year. Arm B. Patients will be treated with 1 course of ipilimumab 3mg/kg and nivolumab 1mg/kg followed by IHP after 3 weeks and then another 3 courses of ipilimumab 3mg/kg and nivolumab 1mg/kg every third week followed by continued nivolumab 480mg q4w up to 1 year.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the safety and feasibility of curative intended irreversible electroporation (IRE) in the treatment of liver tumors neighboring major vessels or bile ducts.
