Active clinical trials for "Carcinoma, Hepatocellular"

Drug-eluting Bead-Transarterial chemoembolization (D-TACE) is the most widely used palliative treatment for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients. While a number of studies demonstrate poor effect of D-TACE for patients in Advanced Unresectable HCC. The investigators previous study also revealed similar results in Advanced Unresectable HCC patients treated with D-TACE. Recently, the investigators previous study demonstrated that, compared with D-TACE, hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy (HAIC) may improve tumor response in Advanced Unresectable HCC. Thus, the investigators carried out this prospective nonrandomized control to demonstrate the superiority of HAIC-based combination therapy over D-TACE-based combination therapy.

This is an open, prospective, single-arm, multi-cohort clinical study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of surufatinib alone or combined with Anti-PD-1 mAb in the treatment of advanced Hepatocellular Carcinoma

To compare systemic neoadjuvant therapy (combination of immune checkpoint inhibitors and anti-angiogenic drugs (short for "targeted-immune therapy") combined with radiofrequency ablation (RFA) and RFA alone in the treatment of recurrent hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC) in 1-year recurrence-free survival (RFS) and overall survival (OS) To evaluate the clinical value of systemic neoadjuvant therapy (i.e. immune checkpoint inhibitors and targeted therapy) combined with RFA in the treatment of recurrent HCC, as well as the safety and efficacy of this strategy.

The purpose of this real-world study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of lipiodol-TACE with idarubicin for hepatocellular carcinoma.

This is a two-arm, parallel-group randomized clinical trial. Routine perioperative care would be performed in volunteers with primary Hepatocellular carcinoma. The study will enroll approximately 500 volunteers to compare the progression-free or overall survival in patients undergoing elective partial hepatectomy for primary liver tumors between propofol and sevoflurane for the maintenance of anesthesia.

Natural killer T (NKT) cells are a unique subset of lymphocytes that present a mixed T-NK phenotype. Our hypothesis is that Natural killer T cells may decrease the tumor burden and improve overall survival. The purpose of this study is to determine whether Natural killer T (NKT) cells are effective and safe in the treatment of patients with unresectable advanced solid tumor.

The PI is studying if sorafenib/hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) will have improved efficacy when compared to sorafenib alone and in patients progressing of sorafenib the addition of HCQ would lead to disease stability in patients with advanced hepatocellular cancer (HCC).

This is a Phase 1/1b, open-label, first-in-human, dose-escalation and expansion study of SRF388, a monoclonal antibody that targets IL-27, as a monotherapy and in combination in patients with solid tumors.

It is estimated that over 50% of HCC cases worldwide are related to chronic HBV. There are approximately 350-400 million people across the world infected with HBV, the majority reside in or originate from Asia. Each year HBV accounts for 749,000 new cases of HCC and 692,000 HCC-related deaths. The annual incidence of HCC is estimated to be <1% for non-cirrhotic HBV infected patients and 2-3% for those with cirrhosis. While the most approved nucleos(t)ide analogues (NA) suppress HBV replication through inhibition of HBV-DNA polymerase and are reported to reduce the risk of HCC incidence, however, such risk is not completely eliminated under NA treatment. The recent availability of commercial quantitative assays of serum hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) has enabled quantitative HBsAg to be used as a biomarker for prognosis and treatment response in CHB. It has been suggested that HBsAg decline during lamivudine or entecavir therapy is slower and less pronounced compared to interferon treatment, despite a higher effect on HBV DNA suppression. Based on HBsAg kinetics, it has been estimated that the predicted median time to HBsAg loss in patients treated with lamivudine or entecavir is more than 30 years. Thus, treatment that can induce rapid decline of HBsAg would have clear advantage in reducing the treatment duration required to achieve HBsAg-loss. Interestingly, in a recent preliminary study, 12-weeks of treatment with nivolumab has showed the modest effect on HBsAg decline in HBeAg negative CHB patients. Thus, in this clinical trial, the investigator will investigate whether immune checkpoint therapy is more effective in inducing HBsAg decline compared with target therapy in HBsAg-positive patients with advanced stage HCC.

This trial studies how well stereotactic body radiation therapy works in treating patients with liver cancer. Stereotactic body radiation therapy uses special equipment to position a patient and deliver radiation to tumors with high precision. This method can kill tumor cells with fewer doses over a shorter period and cause less damage to normal tissue.
