This is a phase II pilot study designed to assess the safety and efficacy of danazol for treatment of cytopenias in patients with CPC A/B cirrhosis. Subjects with or without telomere mutations and/or shortened telomeres will be treated with danazol 600 mg per day by mouth for a duration of …
Sarcopenia is particularly common in patients with chronic liver disease, especially in patients with decompensated cirrhosis, where the prevalence can be more than 50%. Sarcopenia is an important risk factor for a significant increase in mortality in cirrhotic patients, and is closely associated with a high incidence of complications such …
This proposed double-blind placebo controlled randomized controlled trial incorporates recent advances in management of heart failure and portal hypertension using the SGLT-2 inhibitor i.e. EMPAGLIFLOZIN. The drug has been found to be useful in large trials on heart failure with preserved ejection fraction in the general population with improvement in …
Cardiovascular disease has become the leading cause of death early after liver transplantation (LT). The aging LT population is accompanied with the increasing prevalence of cardiovascular risk factors such as hypertension, diabetes, and hyperlipidemia. Furthermore, cirrhosis has been known to cause alterations in the systemic haemodynamic system and cardiac muscle …
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 …
This is a research study to evaluate the effectiveness of 3 different types of routine pain management regimens used during clinically indicated, minimally invasive oncologic (cancer) surgery. This project is considered "Research" and participation is voluntary. Upon enrollment in this study, the research team will collect data from the patient's …
This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of sapanisertib when given together with cabozantinib, and to see how well they work in treating patients with liver cancer that has spread from where it first started to other places in the body (metastatic) and contains a mutation …
This trial is designed to investigate the safety, response rates and survival outcomes of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma by infusion of CTLA4, PD1 and PDL1 antibodies combination with chemodrug or/and bevacizumab through intra-tumor (IT).
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and preliminary efficacy of a combination therapy involving TACE, sintilimab, bevacizumab, and ipilimumab N01 for the treatment of advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). It also aims to explore the potential synergistic mechanisms of this combination. The main questions it …
Trans-arterial chemoembolization (TACE) is the most commonly used therapy for patients with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). TACE is a minimally invasive procedure that involves placing a catheter into the artery in the liver that feeds the tumor, administering chemotherapeutics and then blocking the artery with embolics in order to kill …
