Active clinical trials for "Liver Neoplasms"

Single-arm, open-label, interventional study evaluating adoptive cell therapy (ACT) with autologous tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL) infusion followed by IL-2 after a non-myeloablative(NMA) lymphodepletion preparative regimen for the treatment of patients with advanced liver cancer.

Liver metastases are one of the most common sites of metastasis in advanced gastric cancer. Chemotherapy remains the mainstay of treatment for these patients, but combination chemotherapy has encountered a bottleneck in improving patient survival, with no significant improvement in survival rates at 1, 3 or 5 years. In a previous phase II clinical study we not only observed the survival benefits of Tislelizumab in the treatment of GI tumors such as liver, oesophageal and some gastric cancers, but also confirmed the safety of Tislelizumab in the treatment of advanced GI tumors. This study is a clinical study of PD-1 monoclonal antibody (Tislelizumab) in combination with SOX (Tegafur + Oxaliplatin) for the treatment of liver metastases from gastric cancer. It aims to further explore a new combination therapy for liver metastases from gastric cancer, which is safe and effective for patients with difficult-to-treat disease.

The investigators design a phase II clinical study to explore the efficacy and safety of axitinib plus toripalimab as a second-line treatment in patients with hepatobiliary malignant tumors and to analyze potential biomarkers of therapeutic response.

Every patient undergoing surgery in the abdomen, such as hepatic resection, will experience temporary paralysis of bowel function. This study aims to evaluate whether smoked plum and chewing gum can reduce the bowel paralysis after hepatic resection in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma. One third of the study population will receive smoked plum, one third with chewing gum, and the last will act as empty control.

This partially randomized phase II/III trial studies how well, in combination with surgery, cisplatin and combination chemotherapy works in treating children and young adults with hepatoblastoma or hepatocellular carcinoma. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cisplatin, doxorubicin, fluorouracil, vincristine sulfate, carboplatin, etoposide, irinotecan, sorafenib, gemcitabine and oxaliplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving combination chemotherapy may kill more tumor cells than one type of chemotherapy alone.

The primary objective is to prove non-inferiority of thermal ablation compared to hepatic resection in patients with at least one resectable and ablatable colorectal liver metastases (≤3cm) and no extrahepatic disease.

Patients with colorectal livermetasteses and heavy tumour burden and progression on 1st line chemotherapy have no other available treatment in Norway today other than 2nd line chemotherapy. The Investigators will randomize patients to HAI-floxuridine (FUDR), or liver-Tx, in addition to 2nd line chemotherapy versus 2nd line chemotherapy alone (Excalibur 1) or systemic chemotherapy with HAI/FUDR versus systemic chemotherapy alone (Excalibur 2). Primary endpoint is overall survival at 2yrs.

The management of liver metastases in neuroendocrine neoplasms is challenging. Peptide receptor radionuclide therapy with radiolabeled somatostatin analogs (SSA) is one of the most promising therapeutic options. As liver is the most frequent site of metastatic disease, our project proposes to compare administration of radiolabeled SSA by arterial intrahepatic infusion (experimental approach) vs intravenous administration (conventional). Evaluation will be made by (i) comparing 68Ga-DOTA-peptides uptake after intra-hepatic versus intravenous route (imaging), (ii) by evaluating the safety of an additional intra-hepatic administration of therapeutic radiolabeled SSA (therapy).

Unlike hepatocellular carcinoma, liver transplantation in patients with liver metastasis from colorectal cancer is limited in only few centers. Previously, it was not generally implemented due to lack of organs and high recurrence rates after transplantation. However, due to progressive development in treatments, good results such as increased survival rates can be expected even in liver transplant patients with liver metastasis from colorectal cancer, which is known to have poor prognosis. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to analyze the efficacy of liver transplantation as an alternative treatment for liver metastasis from colorectal cancer.

Breast cancer is the second most common cancer in Sweden with an incidence of 8000 per year. The role of surgery for distant breast cancer metastasis beyond local lymph nodes remains controversial even though some reports suggest there might be a survival benefit from resection of oligometastases in the liver. The purpose of this multicentre randomized clinical trial is to evaluate local treatment for breast cancer liver metastases, compared to systemic oncological treatment only. The primary endpoint is time to death from any cause, which will be compared using cox proportional hazard regression. The secondary endpoints are three years survival, progression-free survival, median overall survival and quality of life. The aim is also to evaluate overall safety and predictive factors for survival during oncological and surgical treatment. The overall purpose is to ameliorate treatment for advanced breast cancer.
