Beta-blockers or Placebo for Primary Prophylaxis (BOPPP) of Oesophageal Varices Trial.
Research has proven that large varices can be treated with beta-blockers (a type of anti-hypertensive medication) to reduce the pressure in the veins. The management of small varices is still uncertain. This study aims to discover if beta blockers can be used in this setting. We hypothesize that beta blockers …
Preventing Liver Cancer Mortality Through Imaging With Ultrasound vs. MRI
The study is a randomized trial of two different screening methods for early detection of liver cancer in patients with cirrhosis of the liver. The goal of PREMIUM is to compare an abbreviated version of the diagnostic gold standard for HCC (aMRI) +AFP to the standard-of-care screening (US+AFP) in patients …
A Study of E7386 in Combination With Other Anticancer Drug in Participants With Solid Tumor
The primary objective of this study is to assess the safety and tolerability and to determine the recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) of E7386 in combination with other anticancer drug(s).
SCREaning of Advanced Liver Fibrosis Using Non-Invasive Tests in General Population
The main objective of the study is to evaluate the pertinence of initiating screening for advanced hepatic fibrosis after a FIB4 result > 2.67 automatically calculated in the local laboratory and followed by a specialized hepatic evaluation.
May the Risk of PHLF be Predicted With Preoperative Liver Gadoxetate MRI
Post hepatectomy liver failure (PHLF) is one of the most severe complications after liver re-section. Preoperative evaluation of liver function is complicated and imprecise. The volume and function needed for each individual patient is unknown and the methods used for evaluation are uncertain. Preoperative MRI with Gadolinium may give dynamic …
Dissemination of the Donor Application: Utilizing Social Media to Identify Potential Live Organ Donors
This study utilizes a web-based application to help patients on the organ transplant waitlist communicate patient's need for a living donor via social media and provide interested potential donors the opportunity to engage with the evaluation process.
A Study to Compare the Blood Levels and Safety of Tazemetostat in Participants With Advanced Cancer and Moderate/Severe Liver Impairment to Participants With Advanced Cancer and Normal Liver Function
This main aim of this trial will be to study the blood levels (known as pharmacokinetics) of the study drug tazemetostat. The pharmacokinetics of the study drug in participants with advanced solid tumors and moderate or severe hepatic (liver) impairment will be compared with participants with advanced malignancies and normal …
Comparison of Hepatectomy and Local Ablation for Resectable Synchronous and Metachronous Colorectal Liver Metastasis
The surgical and local ablation strategy for the treatment of resectable synchronous and metachronous colorectal liver metastases(CRLM) has not still been defined. The purpose of this study is to compare two treatment strategies in which simultaneous resection of both primary and secondary tumor of synchronous CRLM(SCRLM) and resection of metachronous …
Unravelling the Impact of Radiofrecuency in Liver Surgery: the Key to Decrease Local Recurrence?
Radiofrequency devices have been increasingly employed in liver surgery in order to achieve proper hemostasis and this use has become more evident with the implementation of minimal invasive surgery. Due to its well-known efficacy for tumor ablation (i.e. hepatocarcinoma) it use has been extended in some cases to ablate the …
HOPE Against Cancer Recurrence in HCC
Liver transplantation is often performed to treat liver cancer, or hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), in patients with impaired liver function due to cirrhosis. A shortcoming, however, is tumor recurrence after transplantation. Approximately 15 % of patients receiving livers develop recurrence and this depends on the quality of the liver received. Machine …
