Active clinical trials for "Carcinoma, Hepatocellular"

This is a prospective, one-arm, exploratory clinical study to observe and evaluate the efficacy and safety of Anlotinib hydrochloride capsules in patients with advanced liver cancer.

the purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of aptinib in patients with advanced HCC

Hepatocellular carcinoma is a highly malignant tumor that is progressing rapidly. Hepatic arterial embolization chemotherapy (TACE) is a common method for the treatment of unresectable of hepatocellular carcinoma.But for patients with > 10cm hepatocellular carcinoma, the intervention effect was not satisfied.The cyberknife is a kind of stereotactic radiotherapy which can track the movement of tumor and monitor the position deviation of tumor in real time.This stuy is aimed to observe the efficiency and safety of the combination of TACE and cyberknife in the treatment of massive hepatocellular carcinoma.

This is a single-arm, allocation open label study. Phase 1 is a dose-finding phase in patients with advanced/ metastatic hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) who have progressed on first line Sorafenib or Lenvatinib. The primary objective of this study will be to establish the maximal tolerable dose (MTD) of ASLAN001 (Varlitinib) in the study population The secondary objectives include: To evaluate the efficacy of ASLAN001 (Varlitinib), as measured by duration of response (DoR), progression free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS) and disease control rate (DCR) To assess the ORR, DoR, PFS, DCR and OS by tumor EGFR/HER2/HER3/HER4 status To identify tumor and host biomarkers predictive of treatment response or toxicity to ASLAN001.

This study uses to suppress the growth of tumors, extend the patient's survival time and improve the quality of life as much as possible. Through the treatment, the patient is given the chance to undergo surgical resection, thereby more effectively prolonging the OS. Apatinib is a small-molecule VEGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor. It mainly treats malignant tumors by inhibiting VEGFR and exerting anti-angiogenic effects. Preclinical studies have shown that its anti-tumor effect is better than that of the similar drug PTK787. Phase II studies of hepatocellular carcinoma have initially demonstrated the effectiveness and safety of apatinib in the treatment of advanced HCC. Radiotherapy of tumors and portal vein tumor thrombi can promote further tumor shrinkage, and at the same time, the physiological basis for the recanalization of the original tumor thrombus itself will result in necrosis and fibrosis of the tumor thrombus, completely blocking the blood supply to the tumor portal vein. As a result, blood supply to the other side of the portal vein increases, and hepatocyte regeneration in a healthy liver is promoted, so that the patient can obtain surgical opportunities. Based on the therapeutic potential of apatinib and radiotherapy, we designed a prospective exploratory clinical study of this patient with advanced liver cancer.

Evaluation the Treatment Outcome for RFA in Patients With BCLC Stage B HCC in Comparison With TACE

The prognosis of small liver cancer (≤5 cm) with stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) is encouraging, the 1-year local control rate has been reported to be 95-100%, 3-year local control rate about 91%, and 3-year overall survival rate around 70%. So far, there is no randomized controlled study comparing SBRT and surgical treatment for early-stage liver cancer. It is hoped that this study will further compare the efficacy of SBRT and surgery for early stage liver cancer.

An open-labeled, randomized, active-controlled phase II study to investigate clinical efficacy and immunoreaction using trans-catheter arterial embolization (TAE) combined with p53 gene therapy in treatment of advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).

The role of transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) as the standard therapy for intermediate-stage hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is being challenged by increasing studies which showed that liver resection (LR) is a safe and feasible procedure with better survival outcomes than TACE does. In light of this, the investigators have constructed a Markov model to simulate comparing LR and TACE in the treatment of intermediate-stage HCC. The results suggested that LR may provide survival benefit over TACE for the treatment of intermediate-stage HCC in cirrhotic patients. However, validating the simulated result by a study with higher quality (e.g. prospective clinical trial) would be of great value in providing a more convincing finding. Therefore, based on the established Markov model, the investigators aimed to prospectively compare the treatment efficacy and safety of LR with TACE for consecutive patients with intermediate-stage HCC.

It is thought that PET of the abdomen with 11C Acetate will provide new information regarding whether or not patient's have benefited from radiotherapy. To test this theory, the project will evaluate the potential of 11C acetate to serve as an earlier and/or better signal of treatment success.
