Active clinical trials for "Carcinoma, Hepatocellular"

The purpose of this study is to compare the overall survival (OS) for Orantinib in combination with transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) versus placebo in combination with TACE in patients with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).

MTC-DOX is Doxorubicin or DOX, a chemotherapy drug, that is adsorbed, or made to "stick", to magnetic beads (MTCs). MTCs are tiny, microscopic particles of iron and carbon. When DOX is added to MTCs, DOX attaches to the carbon part of the MTCs. MTC-DOX is directed to and deposited in the area of a tumor, where it is thought that it then "leaks" through the blood vessel walls. Once in the surrounding tissues, it is thought that Doxorubicin becomes "free from" the magnetic beads and will then be able to act against the tumor cells. The iron component of the particle has magnetic properties, making it possible to direct MTC-DOX to specific tumor sites in the liver by placing a magnet on the body surface. It is hoped that MTC-DOX used with the magnet may target the chemotherapy directly to liver tumors and provide a treatment to patients with liver cancer. To be sure of the effect of MTC-DOX on liver cancer, it will be compared to the effect of Doxorubicin given through the vein. The study treatments will be administered every three weeks, (which is considered a study treatment cycle), until you complete six treatment cycles, the tumor grows, disappears, or you experience a side effect, which may cause you to leave the study. Follow-up visits will occur on Days 3, 10, and 21 following treatment in the first cycle and Days 7 and 21 for the remaining cycles, and also 60 days after you receive your last treatment cycle. Therefore, the purpose of this Phase 2/3 study is to evaluate safety, tolerance, and efficacy (survival time) of an MTC-DOX dosing strategy where the DOX dose is determined by tumor size

Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of BMS-247550 in treating patients who have liver or gallbladder cancer. Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die.

This is a Phase 1 pilot study to assess feasibility and utility of 99mTc-mebrofenin hepatobiliary scintigraphy for measurement of functional liver change due to radiotherapy.

This study evaluate activity and safety profile of weekly Genexol-PM in patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma for whom sorafenib treatment failed. Patients will receive Genexol-PM on days 1, 8, and 15 every 4 weeks.

This is a phase I/II dose-escalation study of lipotecan based concurrent chemoradiotherapy in hepatocellular carcinoma with portal vein tumor thrombosis.

This is a study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of the Combination of the Oncolytic Immunotherapy Pexa-Vec With the PD-1 Receptor Blocking Antibody Nivolumab in the First-line Treatment of Advanced Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC).

The purpose of this study will be to prospectively evaluate the outcomes of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) who undergo DEB-TACE (drug-eluting bead trans-arterial chemoembolization) with the Surefire Precision Infusion System for intentional effect of down-staging patients to OLT. Patients with HCC and who are considered candidates for liver transplantation but outside Milancriteria and meet the eligibility criteria will be enrolled in the prospective single arm study. Results of the prospective cohort will be compared to matched historical control patients who were previously treated with DEB-TACE, delivered with standard endhole catheters. This includes all patients treated at the University of Colorado since 2009 treated with 100-300 micron beads for whom follow-up is available.

The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of the combination of nivolumab and abemaciclib for the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma. Other goals of this study are to learn about the side effects that this combination of drugs may cause and to learn more about how these drugs work by studying blood and tissue.

The study evaluates artificial intelligence method based on multimodal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) images and clinical data in preoperative prediction of prognosis in early hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients treated with minimally invasive treatment. The correlation between prognosis-related MRI features and pathological features was studied through artificial intelligence method, so as to provide the interpretability of image features for predicting the prognosis of HCC patients treated with minimally invasive treatment.
