Active clinical trials for "Liver Neoplasms"

This is a clinical trial to test the safety and efficacy of the drug thalidomide in combination with a procedure called chemoembolization in patients with inoperable liver cancer. Chemoembolization is the process by which chemotherapy is instilled directly into the blood vessels feeding the tumor, so that the blood vessels feeding the tumor may be blocked. Chemoembolization consists of two separate procedures. It will be done by infusing chemotherapy with the drug doxorubicin through the hepatic artery into the liver and then by infusing collagen to cut off the blood supply to the tumor. A catheter will be inserted at various times to allow for these infusions. The objectives are to investigate the feasibility and potential activity of chronic administration of thalidomide in patients with unresectable hepatocellular cancer who receive chemoembolization to predominant tumor masses. The toxicity of thalidomide in these patients will be evaluated. Overall safety will also be assessed. Serum levels of angiogenic cytokines such as VEGF, bFGF, and TNF-a, that are believed to have a role in hepatocellular carcinoma, will be collected.

The main purpose of this study is to further assess treatment efficacy and safety after using QuiremSpheres® for the treatment of patients with unresectable primary liver cancer or unresectable liver metastases suitable for SIRT and allocated to this treatment by a multidisciplinary tumor board.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of ex vivo expanded autologous immune killer cells in treating hepatocellular carcinoma patients in： Reduction of tumor size Reducing the relapse rate: Reducing the frequency of TACE treatment by IKC injections.

The purpose of this study is to test an experimental anti-cancer immunotherapy called NKR-2 (modified T cells), to treat colorectal cancer with unresectable liver metastases. The trial will test three dose levels (dose escalation). At each dose, the patients will receive three successive hepatic transarterial administrations, two weeks apart, of NKR-2 cells. The study will enroll up to 18 patients.

This study intends to evaluate the efficacy and safety of hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy of oxaliplatin, 5-fluorouracil and leucovorin plus lenvatinib and Sintilimab for patients hepatocellular carcinoma and portal vein tumor thrombus.

This study will document for the safety and efficacy of image guided multi-mode precision ablation system (the combination of cryoablation and radiofrequency ablation) for the treatment of liver malignant, as well as provide the indicator of antitumor immune response for liver malignant in China.

Objectives: To evaluate the safety and effectiveness of cell therapy using precision cells to treat Advanced Lung Cancer. Eligibility: Individuals greater than or equal to 18 years of age and less than or equal to 65 years of age who have been diagnosed with Advanced Lung Cancer.

Objectives: To evaluate the safety and effectiveness of cell therapy using Precision Cells Combined With TACE in Advanced Liver Cancer. Eligibility: Individuals greater than or equal to 18 years of age and less than or equal to 65 years of age who have been diagnosed with Advanced Liver Cancer.

The standard treatment of unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) or sorafenib. Though the TACE and the agent showed survival benefit in several randomized phase III trials, the benefit was modest. Recently, radiotherapy (RT), especially conformal and higher dose with the advancement of RT techniques, showed favorable response rate with acceptable local control rate. Based on those promising results, RT was actively applied in HCC who are not indicated with surgery and/or radiofrequency ablation. Many researchers reported that there is a relationship between RT dose and tumor response rate. RT dose, however, is frequently limited because the complications (like radiation induced liver disease (RILD), radiation induced gastro-duodenal toxicity, etc.) are also closely related with higher exposed RT dose. Proton beam has characteristic depth-dose distribution contrast to photon, the "Bragg peak". The advantage of this dose distribution could be more highlighted in HCC management, because of the weakness and maintenance importance of liver function itself in HCC patients. In fact, the superior results of proton beam therapy in HCC were constantly reported in several groups as prospectively as well as retrospectively. In this background, the investigators planned the present study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of proton beam therapy in HCC patients who are not indicated with surgery and/or radiofrequency ablation (RFA).

The present study is a multicentric randomized phase III trial designed to assess whether overall survival and quality of life are improved in patients with asymptomatic colon cancer and unresectable SLM treated with resection of the PT followed by chemotherapy versus chemotherapy alone.
