Active clinical trials for "Liver Neoplasms"

For patients with unresectable colorectal cancer liver metastases, preclinical studies have shown that after the resistance of cetuximab, the treatment sensitivity can be restored by stopping cetuximab for a period of time. This is called the cetuximab re-challenge. And the circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) test is reported a biomarker for the efficacy of cetuximab rechallenge. However, there is still no randomized controlled trial for verification. This study aims at patients after the first-line treatment of cetuximab has progressed. After the second-line non-cetuximab treatment has progressed, the effects of re-application of combined with cetuximab and chemotherapy alone are compared to verify the re-challenge effect.

Multicentric prospective and observational study to assess the 5-year overall survival in a cohort of patients with unresectable liver-only colorectal metastases, well controlled by chemotherapy prior to liver transplantation.

This study is to collect and validate regulatory-grade real-world data (RWD) in oncology using the novel, Master Observational Trial construct. This data can be then used in real-world evidence (RWE) generation. It will also create reusable infrastructure to allow creation or affiliation with many additional RWD/RWE efforts both prospective and retrospective in nature.

The main objective of this trial is to determine feasibility and tolerance of the human body to RFA associated with local immunomodulation carried out using a thermoreversible hydrogel combined with 2 immunomodulators, GMCSF and Mifamurtide. The main endpoint of the study is the feasibility, the frequency and the nature of per and post-operative adverse events of the in situ injection of an immunomodulatory hydrogel after radiofrequency of unresectable colorectal liver metastases. The secondary objective is one-year progression free survival rate.

In the structure of malignant liver lesions, two main groups are distinguished - primary liver cancer and metastatic liver damage. The five-year survival rate of patients with malignant liver tumors does not exceed 6%. The main and radical method of treatment today is liver resection. However, surgical treatment is possible only in 10-25% of patients. At the same time, recurrence of malignant tumors is observed in 60-80% of cases within five years after surgery, and the number of candidates for repeated liver resection does not exceed 10%. The high toxicity of systemic chemotherapy limits its use in this group of patients. In this connection, minimally invasive and at the same time effective methods of local treatment of malignant liver tumors have been introduced into clinical practice. These methods include: hepatic artery chemoinfusion, chemoembolization and oil chemoembolization. Currently, a large world experience has already been accumulated in the application of the above methods of treatment. However, any, even minimally invasive, surgical manipulation can be associated with the development of complications of varying severity. If complications arise, there is a risk of interruption of palliative care, which entails a significant reduction in life expectancy. According to domestic and foreign literature, the occurrence of complications after intra-arterial chemoembolization occurs in 0.4-10% of patients, and after intra-arterial chemoinfusion - in 5-30% of patients. In the overwhelming majority of scientific works, the description of the complications that have arisen is reduced to listing the latter. Currently, in the Russian and foreign scientific literature there is no systematization of complications, there is no single clinical classification, algorithms for the prevention and treatment of complications arising after local intravascular methods of treatment of patients with malignant liver tumors. The study and systematization of complications arising after intra-arterial chemoembolization and chemoinfusion of the hepatic artery in patients with malignant liver tumors will make it possible to create prevention and treatment algorithms. Thus, it will help prevent interruption of palliative care and increase the life expectancy of this cohort of patients.

The PIONEER Initiative stands for Precision Insights On N-of-1 Ex vivo Effectiveness Research. The PIONEER Initiative is designed to provide access to functional precision medicine to any cancer patient with any tumor at any medical facility. Tumor tissue is saved at time of biopsy or surgery in multiple formats, including fresh and cryopreserved as a living biospecimen. SpeciCare assists with access to clinical records in order to provide information back to the patient and the patient's clinical care team. The biospecimen tumor tissue is stored in a bio-storage facility and can be shipped anywhere the patient and the clinical team require for further testing. Additionally, the cryopreservation of the biospecimen allows for decisions about testing to be made at a later date. It also facilitates participation in clinical trials. The ability to return research information from this repository back to the patient is the primary end point of the study. The secondary end point is the subjective assessment by the patient and his or her physician as to the potential benefit that this additional information provides over standard of care. Overall the goal of PIONEER is to enable best in class functional precision testing of a patient's tumor tissue to help guide optimal therapy (to date this type of analysis includes organoid drug screening approaches in addition to traditional genomic profiling).

The Registry on Percutaneous ElectroChemoTherapy (RESPECT) is a post-market, prospective, non-randomized, observational study aiming at evaluating the effectiveness of percutaneous electrochemotherapy (ECT) for the treatment of liver cancer.

This study is a prospective, multicenter, randomized controlled clinical trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of polyvinyl alcohol sodium acrylate embolization microspheres and HepaSphere Microspheres loaded with irinotecan for the treatment of colorectal cancer with hepatic metastases through arterial chemoembolization.

This is an open, one-arm study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of mRNA personalized tumor vaccine (tumor vaccine) encoding neonatal antigen in combination with Sintilimab injection for adjuvant prevention of postoperative recurrence of hepatocellular carcinoma.

This trial is a prospective, single-arm, multi-center clinical trial. Four hospitals with national medical trial institution qualifications are selected as clinical trial centers. Qualified participants will receive endoscopic ultrasound-guided laser ablation by LaserPro Diode Laser System according to the routine procedures. The results will be recorded according to the requirements of the primary and secondary efficacy indicators. After then, statistical comparisons of effectiveness and safety of the procedure will be made according to groups.
