Uveal melanoma is the most common primary intraocular malignancy in adults. Despite successful control of the primary tumor, metastatic disease will develop in approximately 35%-50% of the patients within 10 years. The liver is the most common site for metastases, and about 50% of the patients will have isolated liver …
This phase III trial compares the effect of immunotherapy (IO) with stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) to IO alone in treating patients with liver cancer (hepatocellular cancer) that may have spread from where it first started to nearby tissue, lymph nodes, or distant parts of the body (advanced). The usual …
Cirrhosis is a progressive developing liver disease transforming normal hepatocytes into scar tissue with loss of function.The prevalence of cirrhosis has approximately tripled over the past two decades. With the increasing incidence of chronic liver disease, about 2 million people died from cirrhosis worldwide. Currently, D'Amico stage classification and Child-Pugh …
Transarterial radioembolization (TARE) is a key treatment option for patients with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), a primary form of liver cancer. TARE is a minimally invasive therapy in which radioactive microspheres are delivered through a microcatheter near the tumour into the liver's blood vessels. Although TARE can significantly improve survival, …
The relevant data of 220 patients undergoing laparoscopic hepatectomy in our hospital were collected. Based on randomization, blindness and inclusion and exclusion criteria, the patients were divided into group A (which included Pringle method + restricted fluid management + vasoactive drug use by anesthesiologists) and group B (which included: Pringle …
The project comprises two research lines. In the line 1, human monoclonal antibodies toward SARS-CoV-2 will be generate and characterized by in vitro functional tests. In the line 2, in vitro tests will be performed to evaluate the efficency of immune response mediated by antibodies direct to specific tumor molecules.
This clinical trial compares two different kinds of surgical closing techniques, short stitch suture or traditional suture, in patients who are having liver tumor surgery. This study may help researchers learn if one technique can lower the chances of developing a hole in the wall of the abdomen (an abdominal …
Microdevices have been used to ascertain in vivo drug response, which can lead to improved cancer treatment delivery; however, they have not been evaluated for liver tumors. This is a prospective, phase 1 safety study of percutaneous placement and surgical retrieval of a microdevice in patients with liver metastasis from …
This trial evaluates the treatment response of colorectal cancer that has spread to the liver (liver metastases) using intravoxel incoherent motion diffusion weighted imaging (IVIM DWI). IVIM DWI is new kind of imaging scan that may help measure changes in disease before and after chemotherapy in patients with colorectal liver …
This phase II trial tests whether atezolizumab in combination with a multi-kinase inhibitor (cabozantinib or lenvatinib) compared to multi-kinase inhibitor alone in treating patients with liver cancer that cannot be removed by surgery (unresectable), has spread to has spread to nearby tissue or lymph nodes (locally advanced), or has spread …
