Filter by:Open-label, dose escalation, multi-center, Phase I/II clinical trial to assess the safety/tolerability and determine the recommended Phase II Dose (RP2D) of ET140203 T-cells in pediatric subjects who are AFP-positive/HLA-A2-positive and have relapsed/refractory HB, HCN-NOS, or HCC.
Liver metastases (MTS) are the main cause of death for patients affected by colorectal carcinoma (CRC) and pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), thus representing the major unmet clinical need for these malignancies. Based on preliminary and published data, the investigators hypothesize that innovative immune, gene and cell therapy approaches might overcome the tolerogenic liver microenvironment and represent powerful therapeutic tools for liver MTS of PDAC and CRC. The investigators have therefore planned an observational clinical study to enroll distinct cohorts of patients (i.e., metastatic CRC, metastatic and non-metastatic PDAC) and finely characterize, through integrated state-of-the-art -omics, the immune and non-immune microenvironment of their primary tumor and/or liver metastases as well as correlate changes in the activation status and phenotype of peripheral blood leukocytes. Healthy volunteers will be enrolled as negative controls. The investigators aim at identifying: i) actionable tumor associated antigens (TAAs) and local immune suppressive and regulatory pathways; ii) biological parameters for early diagnosis of relapse; iii) the effect of therapies on the shaping of anti-tumor immune responses. Data collected will be instrumental for the generation of novel advanced therapy medicinal products (ATMPs). Indeed, this protocol is part of a multi-partner translational program, supported by the AIRC 5 per Mille 2019 grant, focused on the development, validation and implementation for clinical testing of ATMPs to ameliorate the cure of CRC and PDAC and possibly help the study of other solid tumors. Moreover, the systematic and long-term follow-up of enrolled patients will possibly point at early predictors of differential prognosis and patients' categories eligible for tailored therapies, including those with the novel ATMPs.
This study aims to determine whether a breath test could be used for early detection of hepatic fibrosis, cirrhosis or hepatocellular carcinoma. Patients who are attending for a planned liver outpatient services or investigations will be approached to provide a breath sample. Multi platform mass spectrometry analysis will be performed to establish volatile biomarkers that can discriminate between fibrosis, cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma.
Multicentric prospective and observational study to assess the 5-year overall survival in a cohort of patients with unresectable liver-only colorectal metastases, well controlled by chemotherapy prior to liver transplantation.
Blood loss during liver resection surgery affects patients morbidity, short and long-term mortality. Among non-surgical interventions to minimize intraoperative blood loss and perioperative blood products transfusion, maintaining conditions of low central venous pressure is considered as standard of care. In animals undergoing laparoscopic hepatectomy, reducing airway pressures represents a minimally invasive measure to reduce central venous pressure and therefore bleeding from the hepatic vein. Neuromuscular blocking agents are usually administered during anesthesia to facilitate endotracheal intubation and to improve surgical conditions: a deep level of neuromuscular blockade has already been shown to reduce peak airway pressures and plateau airway pressures in non-abdominal procedures. Such airway pressures reduction can potentially limit bleeding from hepatic veins during transection phase in liver surgery. The aim of the present study is to evaluate the impact of deep neuromuscular blockade on bleeding (as a consequence of reduced airway peak pressure and plateau pressure) in hepatic laparoscopic resections. Patients undergoing laparoscopic liver resection will be randomized to achieve, using intravenous Rocuronium, either a deep neuromuscular blockade (post-tetanic count = 0 and/or = 1 and train of four count = 0) or moderate neuromuscular blockade (train of four count ≥ 1 and/or post-tetanic count > 5) during surgery. Neuromuscular blockade measurements will be performed every 15 minutes. The primary endpoint is to assess the total blood loss at the end of the resection phase.
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.
Insufficient future liver remnant (FLR), which may render post-hepatectomy liver failure, is one of the major obstacles for performing liver resection for patients with liver malignants. Associating liver partition and portal vein ligation (ALPPS) was introduced to induce rapid and extensive liver hypertrophy, which offers the opportunity for removing the liver malignancy in the second stage operation for patients with insufficient FLR at their first stage operation. Feasibility of the second stage of ALPPS has been assessed mostly on the basis of laboratory parameters and volumetry by the 3D reconstruction of CT. Meanwhile, part of the patients who underwent the second stage ALPPS still experienced postoperative liver failure, even in patients with sufficient FLR volume. In other words, this volumetric increase may not reflect the increase of liver function. And the laboratory parameters can only partly reflect the global liver function but not the regional liver function. Therefore, the combination of volumetric and global liver function tests might be unsuitable for predicting FLR function after first stage ALPPS because function is distributed unequally between left and right liver lobe. The Gd-EOB-DTPA-enhanced liver MRI, which has remarkable potential to evaluate regional liver function and could therefore be an ideal diagnostic test for performing volumetric and functional measurement after the first stage ALPPS in one examination. Thus we performed this clinical trial in order to evaluate the efficacy of Gd-EOB-DTPA-enhanced liver MRI in evaluating the FLR liver function after the first stage ALPPS.
This is a master protocol for a prospective Phase I-II study evaluating feasibility and efficacy of incorporating magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) simulation into the planning of radiation treatments.
This is a Phase Ib/II, open-label, multicenter, randomized umbrella study in participants with advanced liver cancers. The study is designed with the flexibility to open new treatment arms as new treatments become available, close existing treatment arms that demonstrate minimal clinical activity or unacceptable toxicity, modify the participant population, or introduce additional cohorts of participants with other types of advanced primary liver cancer. Cohort 1 will enroll participants with locally advanced or metastatic hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) who have not received prior systemic therapy for their disease. Eligible participants will initially be randomly assigned to one of several treatment arms (Stage 1). Participants who experience loss of clinical benefit or unacceptable toxicity during Stage 1 may be eligible to receive treatment with a different treatment combination (Stage 2). When a Stage 2 treatment combination is available, this will be introduced by amending the protocol.
