Risk of Hepatocellular Carcinoma in Patients Treated With ETV vs TDF for Chronic Hepatitis B With...

Hepatitis BChronic2 more

The current first-line treatment for HBV is long-term oral antiviral drugs to inhibit HBV DNA replication. First-line antiviral drugs recommended by the Chinese 2015 Hepatitis B Guidelines include ETV and TDF. This study is based on a real-world clinical cohort to retrospectively analyze the effects of ETV and TDF on the long-term (5-year) incidence of HCC in Chinese patients with chronic hepatitis B with compensated cirrhosis. The results will guide the revision of the Chinese HBV guidelines.

Combined Immunotherapy and Targeted Therapy for Hepatocellular Carcinoma

HepatoCellular Carcinoma

Liver cancer is a common malignant tumor in China, and its incidence rate ranks third and remains high. The treatment of liver cancer has made some progress in recent years, mainly the progress of radical treatment such as surgery and ablation. For liver cancer, due to the emergence of molecularly targeted drugs such as sorafenib and immunological checkpoint inhibitors, the systemic therapeutic effect of advanced liver cancer is improved, and the curative effect is further improved. In recent years, immunotherapy has become one of the clinical treatment options for cancer. T lymphocytes are a cell with cell killing ability in the immune system, and programmed death factor 1 (PD-1) is an important inhibitory receptor on the surface of T lymphocytes. It is known that the ligands of PD-1 are PD-L1 and PD-L2, and studies have found that a variety of tumor cells have high expression of PD-L1 ligand on the surface. At present, clinical research on target drugs for PD-1 has included dozens of solid tumors or hematological tumors. The results of clinical studies that have been completed and the interim results of some studies indicate that anti-PD-1 antibody drugs are more effective and safer than previous treatments. Patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) often undergo liver cancer resection, but the recurrence rate can reach 70% to 100%, which seriously affects the treatment outcome and long-term survival rate. Early recurrence of liver cancer is mainly related to the invasiveness of the tumor. Microvascular invasion, non-anatomical hepatectomy, AFP greater than 32 ng/ml, tumor diameter greater than 5 cm, and incomplete tumor capsule are risk factors for recurrence within 2 years after surgery. Hence, it is necessary to determine the risk factors for HCC recurrence and the markers for continuous monitoring of anti-tumor response before and after surgery. Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) is an integral part of "liquid biopsy" and has great potential to change the current treatment modality in the cancer field. CTCs are derived from solid tumors and are associated with hematogenous metastasis. Therefore, analyzing the level of CTC has clinical guiding significance. For liver cancer patients, overall survival (OS) tended to be poorer in patients with CTCs. Although surgical treatment of liver cancer has benefited most patients with liver cancer, monitoring postoperative recurrence, further improving the long-term prognosis of liver cancer, postoperative detection of CTCs and other related indicators, combined with targeted, immune and other related treatments for further study. It is expected to receive 100 patients (50 treatment groups, 50 control groups). Patients who underwent immunotherapy after surgery were assigned to the immunotherapy group, and patients who were not treated with sorafenib after surgery were classified as the control group. All patients underwent 7 CTCs tests (immunomagnetic beads negative enrichment-targeted PCR) before, 7 days after surgery and 1st, 3rd, 6th, 9th, and 12th postoperatively. All patients were observed from the observation period. After the liver cancer resection, the patient was observed to have died, lost to follow-up or the end of the study.

Dynamic Contrast-enhanced Magnetic Resonance Imaging in Evaluation of Liver Functional Status and...

Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a major health problem worldwide. For patients with intermediate-stage disease, i.e., large or multifocal HCC without vascular invasion or extrahepatic spread, transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) is recommended as first line therapy with survival advantages. TACE can be performed repeatedly in patients with recurrent tumors who have adequate liver function reserves. Two clinical issues of TACE remain un-resolved. The first issue is the possibility of TACE-induced liver parenchymal damage, which may influence further treatment options and outcome of the patients. Conventional ways to evaluate liver functional reserves, including Child-Pugh score, biochemistry and metabolic tests, and ultrasound elastography, are relatively non-specific. The second issue is the difficulty in evaluating TACE efficacy, which cannot be reliably measured by conventional, volumetric response criteria. Both issues should be resolved to optimize patient care. Recently dynamic contrast-enhancing magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) is increasingly used to analysis perfusion changes of the liver, and can be applied to both liver parenchyma and tumors. Previous studies have shown clinical applications of perfusion imaging, such as evaluating the severity of liver fibrosis and cirrhosis, assessing the effectiveness of anti-angiogenic therapy, and evaluating tumor viability after locoregional therapy. DCE-MRI can be performed with a hepatobiliary specific contrast agent, Gd-EOB-DTPA (Gadoxetic acid, Primovist®, Bayer Schering), with dual benefit of dynamic phase and the delayed hepatobiliary phase imaging. The hepatobiliary phase imaging can provide additional information for hepatic lesion characterization and the functional status of the hepatocytes. We hypothesize that imaging parameters of DCE-MRI with Gd-EOB-DTPA could reflect non-tumorous liver parenchymal changes and can be used to predict and monitor treatment response in patients with HCC after TACE. In this prospective cohort study, we will recruit patients referred for TACE with newly-diagnosed unresectable HCC or tumor recurrence after operation. Patients treated with radiofrequency ablation (RFA) will be recruited as a control group, since RFA is associated with minimal damage to the non-tumorous liver parenchyma. Key eligible criteria include chronic hepatitis B, histological or clinical diagnosis of HCC, tumors that are not amenable to surgical treatment and referred for TACE or RFA, ECOG performance status 0 or 1, Child-Pugh class A or B liver function, and measurable tumors (by RECIST 1.1). Eligible patients will receive the designated treatment (TACE or RFA) according to the current HCC treatment guidelines. DCE-MRI with Gd-EOB-DTPA will be used to analyze the non-tumorous liver parenchymal changes and treatment response, and will be performed at baseline, 3 days and 1 month after treatment, and then every 3 months for a maximum of 2 years. The primary endpoint of this study is progression of liver function reserve. The estimated time for patient recruitment is about half a year, and 40 patients and 20 patients will be recruited in the TACE and the RFA treatment group, respectively. The imaging parameters of the non-tumorous parenchyma and the tumors will be analyzed and correlated with clinical liver function parameters, and hepatic functional and tumor outcome of the patients.

The use of intraoperative ultrasound (IOUS) allows us to perform new conservative hepatectomies. The investigators previously reported the systematic subsegmentectomy by IOUS-guided finger compression for segments 2-3, which is currently applied for patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC)on cirrhosis. The investigators herein describe a novel technique, which consists in the systematic right posterior sectionectomy by IOUS-guided finger compression.

A Survey for Factors That Influence Postoperative Treatment Decision-making for Hepatocellular Carcinoma...

Hepatocellular Carcinoma

This is a non-interventional and questionnaire survey study. The investigators try to find out patient's willingness and expectation for post-operative treatments for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), as well as patients' willingness to participate in clinical trials using a questionnaire. The ultimate goal is to assist physicians in clinical treatment decision, clinical research, and government health and economic decision-making, as well as to help investigators understand how to increase public awareness of the HCC and the treatment course and efficacy of HCC, and the awareness of clinical trials.
