Active clinical trials for "Carcinoma, Hepatocellular"

Lenvatinib is the standard of care for patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The aim of the single-arm, open-label, phase II clinical trial is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of lenvatinib as an adjuvant therapy for patients underwent radical resection of HCC with a high risk of tumor recurrence. Investigator hypothesize that lenvatinib may be an effective adjuvant treatment for HCC, and 12-month adjuvant treatment with lenvatinib can improve one-year recurrence-free survival rate (RFS) of HCC patients after surgical resection.

Transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) based on drug-eluting beads (DEB-TACE) is widely used for unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). However, the long-term survival is still low after DEB-TACE treatment. In recent years, lenvatinib and anti-PD-1 have exhibited potential therapeutic effects for advanced HCC. And sorafenib is the standard drug for advanced HCC. Combining targeted drugs or immunotherapies with DEB-TACE may provide synergistic effects and facilitate the development of personalized medicine. Therefore, this prospective study aims to investigate the safety and efficacy of DEB-TACE plus sorafenib or lenvatinib or PD-1 Inhibitor for unresectable HCC.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Systemic chemotherapy of oxaliplatin, 5-fluorouracil and leucovorin plus lenvatinib and toripalimab in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma with extrahepatic metastasis

Although sorafenib is the standard treatment for hepatocellular carcinoma with portal vein invasion, the outcome of these patients remains very poor, with a median survival time of 5.5 to 7.2 months. It has been demonstrated that first-line treatment with transarterial chemoembolization plus radiotherapy could provide more favorable survival than sorafenib alone. However, intrahepatic dissemination and distant metastasis remains the major recurrence pattern after treatment in these patients; therefore, searching for new strategies to improve efficacy is necessary. Immunotherapy targeting the PD-1/PD-L1 checkpoints has demonstrated promising activity in advanced HCC. Combining radiotherapy with immune checkpoints showed promising response rates and improved survival in several solid tumor types. The aim of this randomized study was to investigate the efficacy and safety of stereotactic body radiotherapy followed by sintilimab (an anti-PD-1 antibody) compared with stereotactic body radiotherapy alone for hepatocellular carcinoma with portal vein invasion after arterially directed therapy.

The vast majority of primary liver cancer (90%) is hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), and the majority of HCC patients have been locally advanced or metastatic disease when they are diagnosed in clinics. Most of them are not suitable for radical treatment. In the case of supportive treatment, the median survival time was only 7.9 months. Therefore, there is an urgent need for effective treatment for these patients. At present, the overall objective response rate (ORR) of single or sequential therapy is not satisfied, and the over survival (OS) improvement is not ideal. Therefore, combined therapy maybe the good choice for patients with advanced HCC. This study focuses on the in-operable, middle and late stage (BCLC-B and BCLC-C) HCC patients. Through the combination of immunotherapy (PD-1 monoclonal antibody), local therapy (TACE) and anti-angiogenic therapy (lenvatinib), it is expected to change the tumor microenvironment, restore the immune response, strengthen the anti-tumor effect of various treatments, and improve the therapeutic efficacy in patients with middle and late stage HCC.

The rate of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) involving portal vein tumor thrombus (PVTT) is up to 50% in Guangxi province, China. Some of them will receive hepatic resection, especially those with type I or II PVTT. However, 5-years recurrence rate is up to 75% after surgery. Some retrospective studies found postoperative radiotherapy may reduce the rate of recurrence. Moreover, few retrospective studies also found neoadjuvant radiotherapy (PMID: 27317960) may improve overall survival for HCC patients involving type II/III PVTT. However, the safety and efficacy of neoadjuvant raidotherapy for HCC involving type I PVTT is unknown.

evaluation of the efficacy of transarterial chemoinfusion (TAI) combine lenvatinib in advanced hepatocelllar carcinoma

This study was designed to evaluate the effectiveness of Anlotinib in middle-advanced Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC) Patients.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of arginine hydrochloride combined with trimetazidine hydrochloride tablets in the treatment of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma.

The current study is a prospective, randomized, open, multi-center investigation. The aim of current study is to investigate whether the Recurrence-free Survival Rate (RFS）of the hepatitis B related -hepatocellular carcinoma subjects who have been treated by resection can be improved by peginterferon alfa-2a
