Primary or Metastatic Tumor in the Liver Parenchyma Clinical Trial
Official title:
Exploratory Study to Determine Tissue Alterations of Advanced Hepatocellular Carcinoma Induced by Electromagnetic Waves of Low Energy Amplitude Modulated to Specific Frequencies During Imaging Study by MRI
This is an exploratory, national, single-center, open-label study, being conducted at the
Institute of Education and Research of the Syrian-Lebanese Hospital in collaboration with
the Radiology Institute, the Heart Institute of the Faculty of Medicine of São Paulo,
Hospital São Paulo UNIFESP, and the Departments of Physics and Mathematics at the University
of São Paulo in order to detect the presence of calcium flux change, tumor perfusion and
electrical properties of tumor tissue when exposed to RF EMF AM by Cancer-frequency specific
in patients with advanced HCC and correlate these findings with hemodynamic changes assessed
by non-invasive hemodynamic measurements.
This study aims to demonstrate the presence of three mechanisms (hypothesis) that could be
involved in the hemodynamic changes and the specific antitumor effect induced by exposure to
RF EMF AM cancer-specific frequency. This study is not intended to study a therapeutic or
diagnostic procedure. For this reason, will not be considered evolutionary clinical data
during and after the intervention of the study.
