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 will be a prospective, observational, cohort study to determine the impact of integrated diagnostics using quantitative magnetic resonance imaging, whole genome sequencing and digital pathology on intended patient management for liver cancer patients referred for liver resection. Participants with primary or secondary liver cancer will be recruited from Hampshire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust in Basingstoke or Oxford University Hospitals NHSFoundation Trust in Oxford. The incidence of treatable liver tumours is on the rise globally, driven by obesity, viral hepatitis and metastases from colorectal cancers. Survival rates can be improved with optimised allocation of treatment options including surgical resection, radiofrequency ablation, embolisation, chemotherapy and targeted molecular therapies (including immunotherapy). The key motivation of this study is to help patients access the most suitable treatment combinations, based on integrating clinical, radiological and genomic data. A similar integrated approach, integrating radiology and pathology, has been shown to improve outcomes in breast cancer care. Detailed pathologic analysis of the surgical specimen from breast carcinoma biopsy provides valuable feedback to the radiologist, establishes the completeness of surgical intervention, and generates predictive information for therapeutic decisions. Whole genome sequencing (WGS) has discovered cancer driver mutations and the complex molecular profile of liver cancer. In many metastatic solid tumours, WGS has been used to identify a significant patient population (31%) who present with a biomarker that predicts sensitivity to a drug and lacked any known resistance biomarkers for the same drug. Identifying which patients possess druggable mutations will allow clinicians to make the optimal treatment decisions. The next challenge is integrating WGS into scalable clinical practice
Hepatocellular cancer is the 6th most common seen disease in the world and the 3rd in cancer-related deaths. Liver transplantation is the primary curative treatment of HCC, as it eliminates liver cancer and underlying cirrhosis. However, liver transplantation is not offered to every HCC patient, since advanced stage HCC patients are lost with tumor recurrence early after liver transplantation. The Milan criteria, which are accepted worldwide, are the patient selection criteria that we have to follow in cadaver-to-liver transplantation for HCC in our country. However, as the Milan criteria are very strict criteria, it pushes patients out of liver transplantation who exceed the Milan criteria but who can benefit from liver transplantation. Liver transplantation centers all over the world have declared their own criteria under the expanded Milan criteria. In our country, Malatya Criteria have been defined by İnönü University on this subject, and our studies on this subject still continue. When we scan the original articles of all these defined criteria, incomplete data are formed and therefore the strength of the criteria cannot be clearly revealed. For this reason, we aimed to analyze the results of our center and present information about the power of the criteria to the literature.
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.
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.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of relatlimab in combination with nivolumab in participants with advanced liver cancer who have never been treated with immuno-oncology therapy, after prior treatment with tyrosine kinase inhibitor therapy.
Sonazoid as a new generation of ultrasound contrast agent.This study based on the features of Sonazoid specific angiography and his mechanical index, the role of Sonazoidin in the differential diagnosis of benign and malignant focal liver lesions in different liver background was explored
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.
