Filter by:Fruquintinib (HMPL-013) is a novel oral small molecule that selectively inhibits vascular endothelial growth factor receptors (VEGFR) 1, 2, and 3 and has demonstrated potent inhibitory effects on multiple human tumor xenografts. Combined with hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy (HAIC), this study is conducted to assess the efficacy and safety of this regimen in patients with unresectable colorectal cancer liver metastases as the third-line therapy.
This single arm study aims to evaluate the rate of conversion therapy in patients with unresectable liver-limited metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) using FOLFOXIRI neoadjuvant regimen and to assess the other outcome including the response rate, the survival rate and the safety profile.
After a patient is diagnosed with colon cancer, they receive a CT of the chest, abdomen, and pelvis to see if the cancer has spread (metastasized) to other parts of the body. A common site for the cancer to spread to is the liver. If an abnormality is seen in the liver on CT, sometimes an MRI of the liver is required to determine a) whether it is cancer or not and b) whether there are small tumours in the liver that were not visible on CT. During the MRI, the patient is injected with intravenous (IV) contrast. This makes liver lesions more conspicuous and also helps determine if they are cancerous or not. The most commonly used IV contrast agent is called Gadovist. However, there is another IV contrast agent called Primovist that is better at detecting liver metastases from colon cancer than Gadovist. This is very important information for surgeons, because if they considering cutting out (resecting) the liver tumours, they want to make sure they get them all. Unfortunately, Primovist is used sparingly in Canadian hospitals because it is more expensive than Gadovist and the MRI takes longer. Some early small studies have suggested that it may be possible to shorten the Primovist MRI significantly (e.g. from 60 minutes to 15 minutes), making it economically feasible to offer Primovist to more patients. However, there have not been any large studies performed to confirm these findings. The purpose of this study is to compare the accuracy of colon cancer liver metastasis detection between a regular, full-length Primovist MRI versus a shortened Primovist MRI protocol. The economic impact will also be assessed.
This study is an interventional open label prospective study that aims to assess both overall and disease-free survival of patients treated with LDLT, partial or whole graft LT from deceased donors for unresectable CRLM. Secondary outcomes are graft survival and donor outcomes in terms of safety and quality of life. Donor selection is performed according to the currently used Institutional and National standards and protocols.
The study aims to evaluate the efficacy of liver transplantation in the context of non-resectable colorectal liver metastasis. The primary endpoint is the overall survival in this group of patients while the secondary endpoint is the disease-free survival. Patients included in this protocol will be evaluated either for whole or partial liver transplantation from deceased or living donors. Type of different transplantations proposed are as follows: 1. Whole liver graft or partial liver (split) from a deceased donor 2. Partial liver graft retrieved from a deceased donor and orthotopically implanted after having performed a left hepatectomy in the recipient. 3. Partial liver graft retrieved from a deceased donor and heterotopically implanted if total hepatectomy can not be performed. 4. Partial liver graft retrieved from a living donor and orthotopically implanted after having performed total hepatectomy. 5. Partial liver graft retrieved from a living donor and orthotopically implanted after having after having performed a left hepatectomy in the recipient. 6. Partial liver graft retrieved from a living donor and heterotopically implanted if total hepatectomy can not be performed. In cases 2-3-5-6 total hepatectomy of native liver can be secondarily performed after having achieved a proper graft hypertrophy in order to avoid a small for size syndrome
Unlike hepatocellular carcinoma, liver transplantation in patients with liver metastasis from colorectal cancer is limited in only few centers. Previously, it was not generally implemented due to lack of organs and high recurrence rates after transplantation. However, due to progressive development in treatments, good results such as increased survival rates can be expected even in liver transplant patients with liver metastasis from colorectal cancer, which is known to have poor prognosis. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to analyze the efficacy of liver transplantation as an alternative treatment for liver metastasis from colorectal cancer.
To compare the efficacy of FOLFOXIRI plus Cetuximab and FOLFOXIRI plus Bevacuzumab in the conversion therapy of right-sided colon cancer liver metastases
To examine radio frequency ablation as a treatment supplement to stimulate immunogenicity and improve survival for patients undergoing curative-intent surgery for colorectal liver metastases.
The treatment proposed in this trial is to administer intra-arterial chemotherapy to liver metastases from colorectal cancer when the blood flow to and from the liver has been isolated via balloon catheters through a vascular access system called the AVAS. The objective of this study is to evaluate the tumour response of repeated and isolated intra-arterial liver isolation oxaliplatin compared with the standard systemic chemotherapy (intravenous 5-FU + leucovorin + oxaliplatin [FOLFOX] or oral capecitabine with IV oxaliplatin [XELOX]).
Preoperative chemotherapy is often used for patients with colorectal cancer liver metastasis (CLM). Many small CLMs (<=2cm) may disappear after chemotherapy, while most of these are still alive. Ultrasonography (US) is a common imaging modality for the intraoperative detection tumor. Sonazoid is new echo-contrast agent, which is more stable and sensitive for detecting of small tumor. Investigators initially this prospective study to compare the detection performance before and after using sonazoid.
