Active clinical trials for "Carcinoma, Hepatocellular"

Single centre prospective evaluation of 68Gallium(Ga68)-FAPI-46 PET/MRI in patients diagnosed with Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC). 68Gallium-FAPI-46 PET/MRI and standard contrasted multiphasic MRI imaging will be acquired in patients with radiological or histological diagnosis of HCC. The PET scan results will be compared to standard imaging to evaluate its role in lesion detection, characterisation and staging in patients with HCC.

The indications liver cancer surgery currently booming due to the increase in surgical techniques and instruments for a more secure resection of liver tissue with a significant reduction in bleeding or surgical complications. This allowed to expand surgical indications in the most fragile patients so assuming optimized anesthetic care. So far, the technique of analgesia reference to this surgery remains administration of morphine analgesia via a device controlled by the patient (PCA) for epidural analgesia is against-indicated because of induced bleeding disorders by surgery. Rafi then McDonnell in 2007 have described a new technique of loco regional anesthesia, the abdomen of the Transversus Abdominis Plane (TAP) nerve block(TAP), which allows selective anesthesia of the abdominal wall. But parietal pain related muscular and nervous sagging surgical approach represent a significant share of post operative pain. This study proposes an evaluation of the abdomen transverse blocks in hepatectomy.

To identify the most efficient parenchyma transection technique for cirrhotic liver resection between the clamp crushing technique and the ultrasonic dissector. Primary endpoint is intra-operative blood loss during liver transection (ml). Expected results and implications: If one of the technique is better than the other, surgical teams could prefer it to minimize the morbidity of liver resection in cirrhotic patients.

This phase II trial is studying how well giving oxaliplatin and capecitabine together works in treating patients with liver cancer.

To compare the overall survival of thalidomide- and placebo-treated advanced HCC patients.

This is an international, multicenter, randomized study of intravenous T138067 versus intravenous doxorubicin in hepatocellular carcinoma (liver cancer). Patients can not have been treated before with chemotherapy and surgery is not recommended for their cancer. A total of 750 subjects will be enrolled in this study.

This trail is a multi-center,prospective observational study aimed to detect early-stage Hepatocellular Carcinoma by a Novel Blood-based DNA Methylation Assay(named Genetron HCC Methylation PCR Kit ). The accuracy of the kit will also be evaluated . The trail will be enroll approximately 4816 participants, including participants with HCC or benign diseases, and high risk factors for liver cancer.

This clinical trial studies how well 3-dimensional multi-parametric ultrasound (3D MPUS) imaging works as a decision-support tool for patients with liver tumors undergoing therapy. Continuous and dynamic imaging of patients undergoing therapy is required to monitor early-phase treatment response. 3D-MPUS is an inexpensive and safe method, which may provide complementary quantitative functional (perfusion) and tissue characterization information to anatomical radiological assessment or blood biomarkers.

The goal of the REMNANT study is to confirm the clinical value of detecting a new biomarker, ctDNA (circulating tumor DNA), in the follow-up of patients with operated liver cancer. In order to meet this objective, this biomarker will be measured in your blood before and after surgery, at three and six months.

This is a single arm phase II trial of Gemcitabine and Oxaliplatin (Gem-Ox) with Erlotinib (Tarceva) for the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and biliary tree cancer (BTC) patients with platelet counts 100,000/µL. The purpose of this study is to determine the tumor control rate following treatment with GEM-OX combined with Tarceva in patients with HCC. Tumor control rate is defined as the percentage of patients achieving a complete response, partial response, or stable disease at 24 weeks following treatment.
