Active clinical trials for "Carcinoma, Hepatocellular"

This study will investigate if Toripalimab (A PD-1 Inhibitor) will improve recurrence-free survival (RFS) compared to placebo in participants with HCC and are at high risk of recurrence after complete resection with no residual of tumour.

The study is a multicenter phase III randomized trial. The purpose is to investigate both the efficacy and safety of transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) plus sorafenib versus TACE alone for recurrent intermeidate hepatocellular carcinoma patients.

This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and the safety of the anti-programmed-death-1 antibody (anti-PD-1) Sintilimab Injection in combination with transarterial chemoembolization with drug-eluting beads(TACE-DEB) in patients with BCLC Stage A/B Hepatocellular Carcinoma Beyond the Milan Criteria.

A single-arm, open-label clinical trial to assess the effects and safety of anlotinib hydrochloride combined with transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) in hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC) patients at high risk of post surgery recurrence.

This is a non-randomized, open-label, multi-site phase II therapeutic trial of pembrolizumab and bavituximab in patients with locally advanced HCC. Locally advanced or metastatic HCC is defined as disease that is not amenable to surgical and/or locoregional therapies. Subjects must not have received prior systemic therapy for advanced HCC in keeping with the first-line setting of this study.

Meclizine hydrochloride is an antihistamine widely used for treatment of vertigo and motion sickness. In HCC it has been used for anti-emetic effects, but it is used here as a CAR (constitutive androstane receptor) inverse agonist. The hypothesis of this study is that Meclizine, CAR inverse agonist, will have beneficial therapeutic effect in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma who are candidates for surgical resection, ablation, TACE, Y90 or systemic therapy by blocking tumorigenesis and inducing apoptosis. The effects of Meclizine will be analyzed by measuring messenger RNA level of CAR target genes CYP2B6, c-Myc and FoxM1, the downstream effectors of CAR, by real time quantitative PCR.

This is a Phase IIIb, one arm, multicenter, open-label study designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of atezolizumab + bevacizumab in patients with unresectable HCC who have received no prior systemic treatment.

ICIs combined with AATDs have gradually become the mainstream treatment modality for advanced hepatocellular carcinoma, and more related clinical trials are underway. This is undoubtedly a breakthrough and the main direction for improving the overall 5-year survival rate of the liver cancer population in the next decade, and a touchstone for exploring the development and value of liver surgery in the era of comprehensive treatment for advanced hepatocellular carcinoma. Overall, there are relatively few reports on various types of translational therapy for advanced HCC, probably for the following two reasons: (1) advanced hepatocellular carcinoma is complex, rapidly progressing, difficult to treat, and has low translational efficiency; (2) the existing translational therapy strategies are highly selective in terms of applicable population, complex treatment process, and institutional dependence, and cannot achieve efficient and successful translation. At present, there are few studies reported on the application of TACE+ICIs+AATDs to carry out translational therapy. In the absence of relevant guidelines for reference, advanced hepatocellular carcinoma may be the best entrance to carry out translational therapy with ICIs combined with AATDs, and after satisfactory results are achieved in the treatment of this group of patients, a point-to-point effect can be generated, facilitating the transformation of TACE+ICIs+AATDs The target population of TACE+ICIs+AATDs translational therapy can be further expanded. To promote the development of hepatocellular carcinoma treatment and improve the long-term survival rate of the overall hepatocellular carcinoma population. In this study, we enrolled patients with advanced HCC and used TACE+ICIs+AATDs for conversion therapy to improve the conversion rate, so that unresectable HCC patients could be converted to a chronic disease state and achieve long-term survival on the one hand, and provide potential for sequential surgical treatment on the other. The drug of choice is lenvatinib. This study provides a basis for the clinical application of translational therapy for advanced hepatocellular carcinoma.

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is listed as the sixth most common cancer worldwide and the third most frequent cause of cancer-related mortality. The majority of HCC cases occurs stem from chronic liver disease and cirrhosis. Hepatocellular carcinoma accounts for approximately 70% to 90% of all primary liver cancers. Trans-arterial Chemoembolization is the most widely utilized and is considered the first-line treatment recommended for patients staged as intermediate HCC (Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer stage B). If applied correctly, TACE can produce survival benefits without adversely affecting hepatic functional reserve. Two TACE techniques have been used since 2004, conventional TACE (c-TACE) and TACE with drug-eluting beads (DEB-TACE). Conventional TACE was evidenced first to treat intermediate stage HCC patients.

This is a prospective, randomized, open-label, parallel-group, active controlled, multi-center phase III registration clinical study to observe, compare and evaluate the efficacy and safety of Toripalimab (hereafter referred to as JS001) combined with Bevacizumab versus Sorafenib as the first-line therapy for advanced HCC This study will enroll the patients with locally advanced or metastatic hepatocellular carcinoma who could not be radically cured and not receive any prior systemic therapy. The study will use PFS and OS as the co-primary endpoints, with approximately 280 patients planned to be enrolled.
