The interventional, randomized, placebo-controlled, single blind phase II-trial FLORA will assess safety and immunogenicity of fecal microbiota transfer in combination with standard of care immunotherapy in advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in a parallel group design. Subjects will be randomized 2:1 into either the FMT or placebo group.
This study is the first to explore the efficacy and safety of recombinant human adenovirus type 5 injection combined with PD-1 monoclonal antibody and nab-paclitaxel in the treatment of patients with liver metastases of melanoma, in order to provide a new method for the clinical treatment of melanoma. The model also provides reference and basis for other tumor treatments.
This is a large-scale study in China to provide evidence and insights in the role of gender in LT for HCC by analyzing the data of 3769 recipients with HCC registered in the China Liver Transplant Registry.
This is a single center, multi-cohort, phase I basket trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of camrelizumab in combination with bevacizumab and HAIC for metastatic liver cancer after standard treatment failure
Pilot study planned to demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of the use of BioTraceIO 360 for Planning, Monitoring and Assessment of liver tissue ablation procedures Single-center prospective single-arm clinical investigation. Sample size - 10 subjects.
This study is investigator initiated, single-institution, prospective, phase 2 open-label study to determine the efficacy and safety of combination therapy of atezolizumab/bevacizumab and proton beam therapy to portal vein tumor thrombosis with or without main primary tumor in patients with stage 3 or higher hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) with Vp2-4 portal vein invasion who had not undergone systemic therapy for HCC. The primary endpoint of this study is progression-free survival and secondary endpoints are overall survival (OS), time to progression (TTP), objective response rate, disease control rate (DCR), and time to local disease progression (LTP).
The treatment of liver cancer needs integrated medical strategies, including surgery, chemotherapy, target therapy, radiotherapy, and immunotherapy. According to the patient's condition to develop a personalized and best treatment plan. Cryoablation can produce osmotic shock through repeated freeze-thaw to cause tumor cell necrosis, and release tumor antigens to activate anti-tumor immune responses. Immune cell therapy is an emerging field across cancer types in current cancer treatment. This study desired to combine cryotherapy and cellular immunotherapy to achieve the effect of tumor control. In recent years, cancer treatment studies have showed that cryoablation combined with immune cell therapy can play a good auxiliary effect and improve the cancer treatment efficacy significantly. This trial study is a single center, single-arm, non-blind open-label human clinical trial. To explore the therapeutic effect and safety of cryoablation combined with autologous DC-CIK (through hepatic artery infusion, HAI) for patients with advanced liver cancers. The DC-CIK biologics are provided by BOHUI Biotech company. Their core technology (including clinical treatment and cell culture techniques) was transferred from Dr. Hasumi who is a Japanese clinician and this technical founder.
This study plans to observe the changes of liver cancer and immune cell subsets by replicating the high abundance intestinal flora and liver cancer mouse model, reveal the relationship and mechanism of intestinal flora in the immunotherapy of liver cancer, and study the impact on prognosis by regulating the positive correlation of lactic acid bacteria and bifidobacteria of rumen coccus in patients with advanced liver cancer receiving immunotherapy
Background: Removal of part of the liver (resection) is performed as a treatment for some cancers in the liver. To achieve the best possible outcomes, it is important that the cancer is removed completely (R0 resection) (1). Up to 30-50% patients develop recurrence within 2 years of surgery which could be due to incomplete removal of the cancer (2). Various techniques are used by the surgeons to identify the cancer tissue from the normal liver during the surgery so that it can be removed completely. These include examining with the naked eye, having a feel of the tumour, and performing an ultrasound scan. Even with these techniques it is difficult to identify the exact extent of the cancer. Also, the interpretation of the ultrasound scan can be subjective (3). A robust, objective, real-time navigation technique is required which can differentiate cancer from normal tissue. Indocyanine green (ICG) is a dye which when given through the veins, is taken up and retained by cancer cells in the liver and they appear as fluorescent areas as compared to normal liver which appears dark. This principle can be used to identify the cancerous tissue accurately during the surgery and remove it completely (Indocyanine green Fluorescence Image-Guided Surgery: I-FIGS). It can also potentially detect additional tumours which were not identified before the surgery or during the surgery with standard techniques (4,5). However, there is a lack of good quality evidence on the usefulness of I-FIGS in liver surgery, so this needs to be tested in a large group of patients having liver surgery before any recommendations can be made. Research Aim: This initial study aims to assess whether a larger trial evaluating the role of I-FIGS in complete removal of the cancer tissue is feasible. Investigators will assess if patients are willing to take part in the study and whether they can gather relevant clinical outcome data from them all. Investigators will also gather patients' views about this novel technique and participating in the study. Design and methods: This study will involve 40 patients having planned liver surgery for liver tumour/s recruited from University Hospitals, Plymouth. Patients will be randomly allocated to have I-FIGS plus standard surgery or standard liver surgery alone. Patients in the I-FIGS group will have ICG injection 2-4 hrs prior to surgery (0.03-0.05mg/kg dose) on the day of surgery. The surgical planning will be carried out as per the standard approach using the naked eye and intra-operative ultrasound examination. Once this is all recorded, ICG cameras will be switched on, and the additional findings and change to surgical plan will be noted. Focus groups will explore participants experiences of being in the study. This will inform the design of the future larger trial. Patient public involvement: Investigators have involved patients who have had or are having liver surgery in the development of the study. Their views on the technique, trial procedures and outcome measures have been incorporated. They will continue to be involved and advise on the study. Dissemination: Results will be available via research journals and conferences.
