Filter by:Hepatic dysfunction limits the therapeutic options for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), which is closely associated with patient prognosis. Established practice guidelines for patients with HCC and impaired liver function are lacking. The treatment allocation in these populations is heterogeneous and remains controversial. This study compared the survival benefits of liver resection (LR) and transarterial chemoembolisation (TACE) in patients with HCC and impaired liver function.
This study is designed to characterize the safety, tolerability, and anti-tumor activity of MDX2001 in patients with advanced solid tumors.
Short-acting coloration for normal liver protection in liver cancer patients undergoing radioembolization therapy a study on the effectiveness of all substances
This study is a single-center, prospective, randomized controlled trial that aims to compare the efficacy and safety of a new indocyanine green (ICG) administration protocol with the current guideline-recommended protocol for near-infrared (NIR) fluorescence imaging in laparoscopic anatomical hepatic resection. Primary liver cancer is a common malignancy worldwide. Laparoscopic liver resection has become increasingly popular due to its minimally invasive nature. During open and laparoscopic liver resection surgery, ICG, a fluorescent dye, is widely used to visualize liver segments and define tumor margins. However, there is a lack of high-level evidence regarding the timing and dosage of ICG administration in current protocols. In our preliminary study, we discovered a new method of pre-mixing ICG with albumin, which creates a more stable conjugate that could enhance fluorescence imaging during NIR laparoscopic hepatectomy. This study will include 100 patients with primary liver malignancies who are scheduled for laparoscopic anatomical hepatic resection. The patients will be randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to either the new ICG-albumin protocol (experimental group) or the standard ICG alone protocol (control group). The primary outcome will be the efficacy of fluorescence imaging, which will be evaluated using a 5-point scoring system by three independent experts. Secondary outcomes will include operation time, blood loss, tumor margin status, complications, length of stay, long-term recurrence, and survival. The hypothesis of this study is that pre-binding ICG with albumin creates a more stabilized fluorescent complex, which could significantly improve the efficacy of fluorescence navigation and hepatectomy outcomes compared to standard ICG alone. This study aims to provide high-quality evidence on optimal protocols for ICG use in laparoscopic fluorescent image-guided liver surgery. The results of this study could help establish standardized guidelines to improve the application of this important navigation technique and enhance surgical precision and outcomes for liver cancer patients worldwide. The study protocol will be approved by the Ethics Review Board and publicly registered before enrollment starts. All participants will be required to provide informed consent. This study will be conducted in compliance with the Declaration of Helsinki and national regulations on human subject protection to ensure ethics, privacy, and safety.
The goal of this study is to assess the efficacy of intraoperative celiac plexus block (CPB) to reduce opioid consumption following laparoscopic hepato-pancreato-biliary surgery
To evaluate the effectiveness of TACE combined with immunotherapy and targeted therapy versus TACE alone in patients with intermediate and advanced liver cancer.
The SYLMET Trial is a randomized trial to compare simultaneous and two-staged resection of primary colorectal and synchronous liver metastases. This is an investigator-initiated, multicentre, randomized controlled trial to assess complications (primary endpoint), survival, cost-effectiveness, and quality of life (secondary endpoints).This trial will include patients with resectable primary tumour in the colon or upper rectum with less than five liver metastases that is possible to treat with surgical resection and/or ablation (RFA/MWA) at time of evaluation.
The primary objective of this phase IIb/III, prospective, randomized clinical trial is to compare the efficacy of irreversible electroporation (IRE) with stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) in patients with perivascular or peribiliary colorectal liver metastases (CRLM), that are not amenable for surgical resection or thermal ablation. Efficacy is assessed in terms of local control at 2 years.
Patients with liver metastasis from esophagus squamous (ESC) are usually offered systemic therapy. However, for those with predominant liver disease or failure of system therapy, local liver management becomes an option. This prospective single center study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and adverse events of hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy (HAIC) using percutaneous catheter placement techniques for liver metastases from esophagus squamous (ESC).
The endpoint of this study is to develop and validate algorithms, using artificial intelligence and machine learning, to optimize patient selection, treatment planning, treatment evaluation and outcome prediction in patients undergoing thermal ablation of a malignant liver tumor. The long-term objective is to establish thermal ablation as the treatment of choice for the vast majority of patients with a primary or secondary liver tumor by development of an accessible workflow that can be widely implemented in different centers performing thermal ablation. Over a time span of at least four years, data will be collected prospectively, encompassing patient information, tumor characteristics, and treatment details. Additionally, pre-, intra-, and post-procedural imaging will be systematically gathered.
