Medications used after transplant to prevent rejection are associated with many side effects. Tacrolimus side effects include kidney dysfunction; tremor, headaches, difficulty sleeping, change in sensation (legs), seizure, or confusion; high blood pressure; anemia, or low blood cell counts; diabetes; abnormal cholesterol and weight gain. The investigators want to use …
This is multicentric, single-arm, observational, investigator-drive study investigating the efficacy of liver transplantation after successful downstaging/disease control of unresectable perihilar cholangiocarcinoma using chemotherapy +/- immunotherapy and stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT).
This single-center, prospective phase II clinical trial evaluates the safety and therapeutic efficacy of combining carbon ion radiotherapy with the standard first-line regimen of atezolizumab and bevacizumab in patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma. The study aims to determine whether the addition of carbon ion radiotherapy enhances tumor control and improves …
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 …
Anxiety is a state of worry and apprehension caused by internal and external threats. High preoperative anxiety levels have been associated with increased anesthetic requirements, higher morbidity, and mortality rates. In adult patients undergoing various surgical procedures, preoperative anxiety rates have been reported to range from 11% to 80%. Most …
Ultrasound (US) used for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) surveillance suffers from low sensitivity (60-78%) due to fatty liver, obesity, and diffusely nodular appearance in cirrhosis. Once a suspicious malignant lesion is detected at US, guidelines recommend contrast-enhanced US, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) or computed tomography (CT) scans to confirm suspicion. The …
Can physiological indicators such as quick Sequential Organ Failure Assessment , Shock Index, and its derived indicators such as Modified Shock Index , Age Shock Index and Respiratory Adjusted Shock Index accurately predict the prognosis of cirrhosis patients with gastrointestinal bleeding? To explore the improvement of emergency and critical care …
A total of 116 patients who meet the inclusion criteria and are chemotherapy-naïve for their metastatic disease, will be randomly assigned to either the treatment group (DEBIRI plus systemic chemotherapy) or the control group (systemic chemotherapy alone). After 4 cycles of chemotherapy and 2 cycles of DEBIRI, patient reassessment to …
This study is a prospective, single-arm, single-center trial evaluating the efficacy of TACE combined with multimodal ablation, Tislelizumab, and lenvatinib in the treatment of unresectable primary liver cancer.
This study adopts a multicenter, single-dose, open-label, and parallel design, which is aimed at assessing the PK and safety profiles of GZR18 Injection in subjects with normal liver function and those with mild, moderate or severe liver insufficiency. The study duration for each subject in this study is up to …
