Immunogenomic Dynamics and Biomarkers in Patients With Hepatocellular Carcinoma Receiving Immunotherapy
Research purpose To perform genomic and immune profiling analysis on blood and tissue samples obtained from blood sampling and tumor biopsy in patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma with immuno-oncology treatment. Research Subject Patients who will receive immuno-oncology treatment in recurrent, metastatic, and advanced liver cancer, who meet the selection criteria …
National Translational Science Network of Precision-based Immunotherapy for Primary Liver Cancer
Background Primary Liver Cancer is the second most common cause of cancer-related death worldwide. It is the cancer with the fastest rising incidence and mortality in the United States. Researchers want to learn more about liver cancer to help them design better treatments. Objective To better understand liver cancer. Eligibility …
Prognostic Impact of Adjuvant Therapy in Primary Hepatic Sarcomatoid Carcinoma
In recent years, researchers have conducted extensive studies on adjuvant therapy following surgical resection of liver cancer, exploring its potential benefits and seeking effective treatment strategies. Given the rarity and high aggressiveness of primary hepatic sarcomatoid carcinoma, there is a lack of reliable clinical evidence on whether postoperative adjuvant therapy …
4D-MRI for Precision Medicine
The purpose of this study is to develop new ways to make medical images of the lungs and liver of adults using a technique called four-dimensional magnetic resonance imaging (4D-MRI). This technique produces three-dimensional movies of the inside of the chest and abdomen while the patient is breathing. (The fourth …
NGS in Gallbladder Cancer and Response to Treatment
Evidence suggests distinct models of molecular and pathologic progression, and a growing body of genetics data points to a heterogeneous collection of underlying mutations in key oncogenes and tumor suppressor genes. Although tumor genetics have been used to tailor individual treatment regimens and guide clinical decision making in other cancers, …
(3D) Ultrasound Imaging Liver and Kidney
This study is to assess the addition of 3D ultrasound guidance during standard care ablation or biopsies of liver or kidney tumours. 3D ultrasound only differs from conventional 2D ultrasound in that the ultrasound transducer is mounted on a special assembly that moves the transducer in precise, stepped movements while …
PDO/PDO-TIL/PDOTS for Drug Screen
This clinical trial aims to use the patient-derived organoid (PDO), Patient-derived organoids-tumor-infiltrating lymphocyte coculture system (PDO-TIL) and patient-derived organotypic tissue spheroids (PDOTS) to simulate the tumor microenvironment in cancer patients. The culture system can be used for pre-clinical validation of drugs and screening of drugs to treat sensitive people and …
TACE Combined Surgery for the Resectable Huge HCC
Huge hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is defined as a tumor with a maximum diameter greater than 10 cm. With advancements in surgical techniques, hepatectomy can be performed safely in some patients with huge HCC without vascular invasion or distant metastasis and with preserved liver function. The high risk of recurrence after …
An Exosome-Based Liquid Biopsy for the Differential Diagnosis of Primary Liver Cancer
It is sometimes difficult to precisely understand whether a primary liver cancer is a hepatocellular carcinoma or a cholangiocarcinoma. The researchers will develop and validate a liquid biopsy, based on exosomal content analysis and powered by machine learning, to help clinicians differentiate these two cancers before surgery.
Microwave Ablation for Treatment of Small Renal Tumors and Primary and Secondary Liver Neoplasms
The goal of this observational study is to collect data on efficacy and safety of microwave ablation (MWA) used to treat subjects with primary and secondary liver malignancies and renal malignancies. The main question it aims to evaluate the short, medium and long-term clinical course of patients treated with MWA. …
