(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 …
Patient-Derived Xenografts to Reduce Cancer Health Disparities
This trial establishes patient-derived cancer xenografts in addressing cancer health and treatment disparities that disproportionately affect racial/ethnic minorities. Understanding the genetic and response differences among racial/ethnic minorities may help researchers enhance the precision of therapeutic treatments.
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. …
Evaluation of diagnostiC Capacity of eccDNAs as Biomarkers in Indetermined biLiary Stricture(ECCBILE)
Biliary stricture is mainly malignant in the adults and caused by several types of fatal malignancies such as pancreatic cancer, cholangiocarcinoma, and metastatic tumor, which have poor prognosis that the overall survival of unresectable lesions is no more than 15 months. The poor outcome often relates to a lack of …
The Optimal Number of Fiducial Marker for Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy
This is a clinical study focused on the use of fiducial marker-guided stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) for treating malignant tumors, including lung, liver, pancreatic, and kidney/adrenal cancers. Here's a breakdown of the key components of the study: Study Design: Prospective, single-center, exploratory clinical study. Patient Enrollment: The study intends to …
Analysis of PD-L1, TMB, MSI and ctDNA Dynamics to Predict and Monitor Response to Immunotherapy in Metastatic Cancer.
This is an observational clinical trial, aiming to investigate whether the ctDNA dynamics could predict early response to ICIs in patients with advanced-stage cancer. Moreover, conventional tumor markers PD-L1, TMB and MSI are to be investigated for their combined prognostic values in ICI treatment.
LEARN: Learning Environment for Artificial Intelligence in Radiotherapy New Technology
This study will develop a whole-of-body markerless tracking method for measuring the motion of the tumour and surrounding organs during radiation therapy to enable real-time image guidance. Routinely acquired patient data will be used to improve the training, testing and accuracy of a whole-of-body markerless tracking method. When the markerless …
