Filter by:The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of robot-assisted simultaneous resection in selected patients with sigmoid colon cancer or rectal cancer liver metastases, and compared with the traditional open procedure.
The standard treatment of unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) or sorafenib. Though the TACE and the agent showed survival benefit in several randomized phase III trials, the benefit was modest. Recently, radiotherapy (RT), especially conformal and higher dose with the advancement of RT techniques, showed favorable response rate with acceptable local control rate. Based on those promising results, RT was actively applied in HCC who are not indicated with surgery and/or radiofrequency ablation. Many researchers reported that there is a relationship between RT dose and tumor response rate. RT dose, however, is frequently limited because the complications (like radiation induced liver disease (RILD), radiation induced gastro-duodenal toxicity, etc.) are also closely related with higher exposed RT dose. Proton beam has characteristic depth-dose distribution contrast to photon, the "Bragg peak". The advantage of this dose distribution could be more highlighted in HCC management, because of the weakness and maintenance importance of liver function itself in HCC patients. In fact, the superior results of proton beam therapy in HCC were constantly reported in several groups as prospectively as well as retrospectively. In this background, the investigators planned the present study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of proton beam therapy in HCC patients who are not indicated with surgery and/or radiofrequency ablation (RFA).
Objectives: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of PIK-HER2 cells in the treatment of advanced Her2 high expressed gastric cancer with liver metastasis patients. Methods: This study designs a novel therapy using PIK-HER2 cells. 40 Her2 positive patients with liver metastasis from gastric cancer will be enrolled. They are randomly divided into dendritic cell-precision multiple antigen T cells (DC-PMAT) group and PIK-HER2 cells group. Both DC-PMAT treatment and PIK-HER2 cells treatment will be performed every 3 weeks with a total of three periods. The mail clinical indicators are Progression-Free-Survival and Overall Survival.
Objectives: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of radical surgery combined with dendritic cell-precision multiple antigen T cells in reducing the recurrence and metastasis of liver cancer Methods: This study designs a novel therapy using dendritic cell-precision multiple antigen T cells. 60 postoperative patients of hepatocellular carcinoma will be enrolled. They are randomly divided into postoperative routine therapy group and dendritic cell-precision multiple antigen T cells combined with postoperative routine therapy group. Dendritic cell-precision multiple antigen T cells treatments will be performed every 3 weeks with a total of three periods. The mail clinical indicators are Progression-Free-Survival and Overall Survival.
The purpose of this study is to observe whether hepatic infusion by oxaliplatin, irinotecan and raltitrexed with or without embolization by lipiodol or microspheres are effective in the treatment of refratory liver metastasis from colorectal cancer.
The aim of this study is to compare the outcomes of Transarterial Chemoembolization (TACE) plus Tegafur with TACE alone in patients with intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma after curative resection
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the fifth most common malignancy in the world and the third most common cause of cancer-related deaths complicating liver cirrhosis in most cases. In Egypt, there has been a remarkable increase of the proportion of HCC among CLD patients from 4.0% to 7.2% over a decade. This rising proportion may be explained by the increasing risk factors such as the emergence of HCV over the same period of time, the contribution of HBV infection, improvement of the screening programs and diagnostic tools of HCC as well as the increased survival rate among patients with cirrhosis to allow time for some of them to develop HCC. The only curative treatment modalities for HCC are surgery, local ablation, and liver transplantation which have high recurrence rate either due to viral hepatitis infection or cirrhosis leading to low success rate and high economic burden. Unfortunately, the majority of patients have unresectable disease at diagnosis. So, patients search for palliative very expensive therapies including chemotherapy and radiotherapy which often fail to eradicate tumor lesions completely and tend to result in many adverse events.Thus, novel approaches for treatment options are needed for patients with advanced HCC . In recent years, immunotherapy has emerged as an efficacious treatment modality with encouraging efficacy and slight adverse events in cancer therapy [Stroncek 2010]. Cytokine-induced killer CIK cells therapy has been evaluated as an adoptive cell immunotherapy for cancer patients in a number of clinical trials and the promising efficacy of CIK cells on malignancies has been proved.
