Active clinical trials for "Liver Neoplasms"

The PI is studying if sorafenib/hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) will have improved efficacy when compared to sorafenib alone and in patients progressing of sorafenib the addition of HCQ would lead to disease stability in patients with advanced hepatocellular cancer (HCC).

The recent global IMbrave150 study evaluated the combination of atezolizumab and bevacizumab versus sorafenib in 501 patients with advanced or metastatic Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC). The median overall survival (OS) was notably better in the atezolizumab/bevacizumab group. However, for HCC patients with intrahepatic macrovascular invasion (MVI), the prognosis remains poor, indicating a significant unmet need in this group. External Beam Radiotherapy (EBRT) has shown promising results in treating HCC with MVI, especially when used in combination with trans-arterial chemoembolization (TACE). It has been reported that radiotherapy may make tumor cells more susceptible to immune-mediated therapy, potentially enhancing the effects of atezolizumab and bevacizumab. Thus, this study aims to investigate the efficacy and safety of atezolizumab/bevacizumab alone versus atezolizumab/bevacizumab in combination with EBRT in HCC patients with macrovascular invasion.

This is a randomized, open, parallel-controlled, multicenter, phase II/III, seamless design clinical trial to compare the efficacy and safety of RC48-ADC with capecitabine + lapatinib in locally advanced or metastatic human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) positive breast cancer and HER2-positive advanced breast cancer with liver metastasis.

This is a phase II, open-label, prospective single-centered study. Subjects who meet the inclusion/exclusion criteria will be allocated to appropriate cohorts: 1) gastric cancer, 2) esophageal cancer and 3) hepatocellular carcinoma. Each cancer cohort group will be treated with two cycles of neoadjuvant immune checkpoint inhibitor of IMC-001 (1 cycle = 2 weeks) followed by curative resection and be followed up consecutively.

Patients with multiple colorectal liver metastases that progress on 1st line chemotherapy have a very dismal prognosis, and their options are few. Resections are regularly performed although this is only supported by anecdotal evidence for this patient group. We want to assess whether resections actually confer benefit as compared to 2nd line chemotherapy alone, in a randomized controlled trial.

Primary liver cancer is the most common malignant tumor of the liver. Radical surgery is the preferred treatment, but its 5-year recurrence rate is as high as 70%, which is often associated with incomplete surgical resection and residual tumor. Since the 21st century, with the rapid development of surgery and new science and technology, the diagnosis and treatment of liver diseases have been closely linked with imaging diagnostics, biomedical engineering, molecular imaging technology, computer science and other interdisciplinary subjects. Three-dimensional (3D) visualization technology is one of the emerging auxiliary diagnosis and treatment methods. It plays an important role in accurate diagnosis, surgical planning and surgical navigation of primary liver cancer, and can effectively improve the success rate of surgery and reduce the incidence of postoperative complications. Its diagnostic and treatment value in primary liver cancer is mainly reflected in :(1) to clarify the spatial location relationship of abdominal space occupying lesions, understand the relationship between space occupying lesions and surrounding tissues, important blood vessels and cavities, judge tumor resectable, and make preoperative planning for tumor classification and surgical resection scope. (2) Calculation of individual liver segmentation and liver volume based on the topological relationship of blood flow 4. 3D simulation software was used to automatically calculate the resectioned liver volume and residual liver volume with statistical correlation, which was helpful to judge the probability of liver failure after liver cancer. (3) Variation of hepatic artery, portal vein and bile duct can be found, and the variation of duct can be evaluated by three-dimensional model, including whether there is contact, length of contact, whether there is stenosis in lumen, etc., especially the resectable ability of tumor patients can be evaluated by 3D and real-time dynamic navigation during surgery.

Evidence suggests that the addition of cetuximab or bevacizumab to doublet regimens could improve response rate and resectability rate of liver metastases and survival in colorectal liver metastases (CRLM). Moreover, it is observed that FOLFOXIRI yields higher response and resection rates compared with doublet regimens. However, which is better in conversion therapy of RAS/BRAF wild-type initially unresectable CRLM, FOLFOXIRI plus cetuximab or bevacizumab, remains unknown. In this study, RAS/BRAF wild-type colorectal cancer patients with initially unresectable liver-only metastases, as prospectively confirmed by a local multidisciplinary team (MDT) according to predefined criteria, will be randomised between modified FOLFOXIRI (mFOLFOXIRI) plus cetuximab and mFOLFOXIRI plus bevacizumab. Patient imaging will be reviewed for resectability by MDT, consisting of at least one radiologist and three liver surgeons every assessment. MDT review will be performed prior to randomization as well as during treatment, as described in the protocol.

This is a Phase Ib/II, open-label, multicenter, randomized umbrella study in participants with advanced liver cancers. The study is designed with the flexibility to open new treatment arms as new treatments become available, close existing treatment arms that demonstrate minimal clinical activity or unacceptable toxicity, modify the participant population, or introduce additional cohorts of participants with other types of advanced primary liver cancer. Cohort 1 will enroll participants with locally advanced or metastatic hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) who have not received prior systemic therapy for their disease. Eligible participants will initially be randomly assigned to one of several treatment arms (Stage 1). Participants who experience loss of clinical benefit or unacceptable toxicity during Stage 1 may be eligible to receive treatment with a different treatment combination (Stage 2). When a Stage 2 treatment combination is available, this will be introduced by amending the protocol.

Open-label, dose escalation, multi-center, Phase I/II clinical trial to assess the safety/tolerability and determine the recommended Phase II Dose (RP2D) of ET140203 T-cells in pediatric subjects who are AFP-positive/HLA-A2-positive and have relapsed/refractory HB, HCN-NOS, or HCC.

This is a single arm phase II study of adjuvant intra-dermal NA DC vaccine combined with intravenous nivolumab in patients with resectable HCC (group A) or CRLM (group B) planned for curative surgery (with/without local ablation).
