Comparison of SBRT and SIRT With Combination IO for Locally-advanced, Unresectable HCCs (BIIRTH)
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the safety and efficacy of sequential Transarterial Chemoembolization (TACE) and Stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) versus Y90-radioembolisation (SIRT), followed by systemic therapy in patients with large, locally advanced, unresectable Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The main question it aims to answer is whether …
ENACT Program on Auditory Perception and Function, Cognitive Function and Health-related Quality of Life
