Proton Therapy in the Treatment of Liver Metastases
Local control of hepatic metastases appears to be a major determinant of overall survival. However, many patients are not suitable for resection due to medical or surgical reasons. Therefore, there is an important role for a treatment that can provide the equivalent of tumor resection with minimal morbidity. Stereotactic body …
Cytomegalovirus (CMV) Vaccine in Orthotopic Liver Transplant Candidates
This is a multi-center clinical trial in Cytomegalovirus (CMV) seronegative prospective liver transplant recipients to determine the efficacy of two doses of Cytomegalovirus-Modified Vaccinia Ankara (CMV-MVA) Triplex CMV vaccine pre-transplant. The primary objective is to assess the effect of pre-transplant (Tx) Triplex vaccination on duration of CMV antiviral therapy (AVT) …
CM for Patients With ALD After Liver Transplant
Alcohol associated liver disease (ALD) refers to liver injury, such as cirrhosis, that is caused by alcohol use. It affects 2 million adults in the U.S. and is now the leading cause of cirrhosis-related hospitalizations, cirrhosis- related deaths, and liver transplantation. Alcohol use disorder (AUD), the root cause of ALD, …
Depletion of Liver Fat in Type 2 Diabetes
The aim of this randomized trial is to determine whether liver fat depletion via a short-term (i.e., two weeks) very-low calorie diet will restore the normal exercise-induced secretion of a signaling protein (fibroblast growth factor 21) from the liver in people living with type 2 diabetes. Participants will have their …
Prevention of Pulmonary Complications After Laparoscopic Liver Surgery
Background: Postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) are the most common complications after major upper abdominal surgery. PPCs include respiratory infections, severe atelectasis, pleural effusion, bronchospasm, aspiration pneumonitis, pneumothorax, exacerbation of chronic pulmonary condition, and respiratory failure. Although PPC rates are higher after open liver surgery, PPCs still occur in approximately 12-13% …
LDRT and Chemoimmunotherapy in NPC With Liver Metastasis
This study aims to evaluate the efficacy and toxicity of adding low-dose radiotherapy to chemoimmunotherapy as a first-line treatment for nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients with liver metastasis.
Walking Program in Fatty Liver Children With Phenylketonuria
phenylketonuria (commonly known as PKU) is an inherited disorder that increases the levels of a substance called phenylalanine in the blood. PKU is usually associated with many metabolic complication including non-alcoholic fatty liver
Impact Of Thyroid Dysfunction on Liver Function Tests
This study aims to evaluate the effect of thyroid dysfunction on liver function tests.
Promoting Immunotherapy Efficacy With Low-Dose Liver RT
The purpose of this study is to see if adding Low-Dose Liver Radiation (LD-LRT) improves progression free survival (PFS). This study is for patients with either melanoma or non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), with liver metastases, and receiving immunotherapy.
Transarterial Chemoembolization (TACE) Plus Bevacizumab for Liver Metastases
Trans arterial chemoembolization (TACE) has emerged as a treatment option for chemotherapy-refractory diseases in Liver metastases. By delivering chemotherapy agents directly to the tumor site, TACE can maximize local drug concentrations and reduce systemic adverse reactions. Bevacizumab is a monoclonal antibody that functions as an angiogenesis inhibitor. It works by …
