Filter by:For patients with colorectal liver metastasis (CLM), the prospect of long-term survival relies on liver resection. Wistfully, more than 75 % of patients with CLM are initially unresectable, due to an insufficient future liver remnant (FLR) volume In order to increase FLR volume, most patients will first receive chemotherapy to reduce the tumor load (downsizing). When chemotherapy is insufficient to provide an adequate postoperative FLR, portal vein embolization (PVE) can be performed. About 50-70 % of patients undergoing PVE obtain a sufficient liver hypertrophy to allow liver resection. While PVE is recognised for its efficacy to induce liver hypertrophy, some studies expressed substantial concerns regarding the potential adverse effect of this intervention on pre-resection tumor progression, increased risk of cancer recurrence following resection and reduced overall survival following resection Those studies suggested that the need to perform PVE should be assessed thoroughly for each patient and that chemotherapy should be maintained during the whole hypertrophy process in order to contain the potential adverse effect of PVE on tumor progression. Other studies found no significant association between PVE and negative oncological outcomes. As mentioned in almost every study cited above, more data is needed to provide a clearer vision regarding the impact of PVE on tumor progression and cancer recurrence following liver resection. The aim of this study is to compare the overall and disease-free survival of PVE-requiring patients to the ones who underwent upfront surgery (NoPVE). As a secondary objective, the impact of several covariates (related to surgery, patient's condition and disease stage) on survival and cancer recurrence will be tested. Our hypothesis are that 1) PVE might be associated with a lower overall survival and a higher risk of cancer recurrence in univariate analysis but 2) this association will not remain significant when other covariates are included in the proportional COX hazard models.
Clinical Trial of Elemene Injection/Elemene Oral Emulusion in Combination With the Best Supportive Treatment in the Treatment of Advanced Primary Liver Cancer
This multicentre prospective and randomized study aims to compare the sealant effect after surgical liver resection of a new collagen - polyethylene glycol hemostatic / sealant patch (Hemopatch) vs standard of care.
Clinical Trial of Elemene Injection/Elemene Oral Emulsion in Combination with Systematic Chemotherapy including Oxaliplatin in the First -line treatment of advanced primary liver cancer
This trial was designed to investigate whether the survival outcome, response rate and safety of hepatic arterial infusion of oxaliplatin, fluorouracil/leucovorin regimens for patients with Barcelona-Clinic Liver Cancer (BCLC)-C stage hepatocellular carcinoma was superior than those of the standard treatment with sorafenib or not.
In order to make better use of clinical resources of the real world, strengthen the standardization of PLC diagnosis and treatment, and constantly improve the academic level of liver cancer in China, we intends to launch "Chinese Liver Cancer clinical Survey" project in cancer specialized hospitals and large general hospitals and to explore the best clinical pathway of PLC multidisciplinary consultation.
The main purpose of this trial is to investigate the safety and tolerability of TAEST16001(TCR Affinity Enhancing Specific T cell Therapy)in the multi-line treatment failed advanced solid tumors except non small cell lung cancer,including liver cancer,gastric cancer,esophageal cancer,bone and soft tissue tumors,breast cancer, bladder carcinoma,prostate carcinoma,thyroid cancer, ovarian cancer and so on. The patients must meet the two criteria: human leukocyte antigens (HLA)-A*0201+ and NY-ESO-1 positive cells≥25% by immunohistochemistry.
To our knowledge, it has not been analyze whether 3D printed liver model would improve the perception of a given liver tumor or the precision of operation planning in liver surgery. We design this prospective controlled trial to test whether the 3D-printed patient specific liver model could be more informative than standard MDCT (multi-row detector computed tomography ) and 3D visualization system in predicting the surgical anatomy of liver.
The study aimed to investigate the preemptive analgesia efficacy of of preemptive pregabalin for the postoperative pain management after radiofrequency ablation (RFA) of liver cancer.
Over the last 10 years, technological advances in molecular biology enabled a more accurate genomic characterization of tumors. For each tumor location, this led to the identification of subgroups with similar molecular characteristics. This identification allowed the development of targeted therapies and thus to improve the patient prognosis. This molecular characterization has also revealed the tumor heterogeneity. It may be the cause of treatment resistance and therefore of relapses. Additionally, tumor cells are in constant dialogue with their microenvironment composed of different immune or non immune cells. This microenvironment is now targeted in cancer treatment. To date, there are few studies that combine a deep genomic characterization of both tumor and tumor microenvironment of the patient. Combining the two types of studies on the same tumor should help to define new therapeutic targets and should allow a combination of targeted and immunomodulatory therapies. To this end, our project is to conduct an exhaustive integrated exploratory analysis at genomic, transcriptomic and immunological levels of 3 tumor types (in colon, kidney and liver cancer).
