NCT07466602
Through follow-up testing of patients with primary liver cancer who underwent hepatectomy, liver transplantation, ablation therapy, or transarterial chemoembolization (TACE), a blinded comparative trial was conducted at each monitoring site. This trial evaluated the combined methylation detection kit for GNB4 and Riplet genes (fluorescent PCR method) against the clinical reference standard (defined as the physician's comprehensive diagnosis based on clinical guidelines and other criteria). The study evaluated the clinical performance of the assay in diagnosing primary liver cancer recurrence and validated the clinical efficacy of methylation detection kits for monitoring recurrence after primary liver cancer treatment.
NCT01730937
This randomized phase III trial studies sorafenib tosylate and stereotactic body radiation therapy to see how well they work compared to sorafenib tosylate alone in treating patients with liver cancer. Sorafenib tosylate may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Stereotactic body radiation therapy may be able to send the radiation dose directly to the tumor and cause less damage to normal tissue. Giving sorafenib tosylate together with stereotactic body radiation therapy may kill more tumor cells.
NCT07349576
Objective:To explore the application effect of postoperative refined early dietary plan in the enhanced recovery of patients undergoing hepatectomy for primary liver cancer, and to provide scientific evidence for optimizing postoperative dietary structure and increasing oral energy intake of patients. Methods:In this randomized, parallel-controlled trial, 142 colorectal cancer survivors meeting inclusion criteria were recruited from a tertiary hospital in Hefei, Anhui Province. Participants were randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to either the dietary intervention group or the conventional diet group. Both the standard care group and the dietary intervention group received 5 days of routine dietary care. The dietary intervention group additionally received specialized meal plans and whole protein supplements beyond the standard care regimen. Dietary intake, nutritional status, and postoperative recovery outcomes were measured and compared between the two groups.

To fill in the "Brief Summary" field, you need to provide clear, easy-to-understand information about the study for patients, families, and healthcare providers. Here's a suggested summary: This study compares the dosimetric features and clinical effects of body gamma knife and VMAT radiotherapy for locally advanced primary liver cancer. We retrospectively analyze 20 patients from Chifeng Tumor Hospital who cannot or refuse surgery. For each patient, we will develop both body gamma knife and VMAT radiotherapy plans. Then, we'll compare the dose distribution in the tumor target (including conformity index and homogeneity index) and the radiation exposure to organs at risk (such as the spinal cord, stomach, and liver). The goal is to find out which radiotherapy approach is more beneficial, so patients, families, and healthcare teams can better understand how this research supports treatment decisions.
NCT06914648
The goal of the DRAGON PLC clinical trial is to determine whether portal vein embolization (PVE) combined with hepatic vein embolization (HVE) improves resectability and overall survival in patients with initially unresectable primary liver cancer compared to standard PVE alone. This trial specifically focuses on patients with hepatocellular carcinoma and cholangiocarcinoma. The main questions this trial aims to answer are whether combined PVE and HVE increases the proportion of patients who become resectable within 3 weeks and improves 5-year overall survival compared to PVE alone by enhancing liver hypertrophy. Participants will: * Undergo either standard PVE or combined PVE and HVE. * Have regular imaging to assess liver resectability. * Be monitored for survival outcomes up to 5 years after intervention.
NCT02119065
This pilot clinical trial studies positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) in finding beads after Yttrium-90 bead therapy in patients with primary liver cancer or cancer that has spread to the liver (metastatic) that can not be removed by surgery. Imaging procedures, such as PET/CT after Yttrium-90 bead therapy, may help see if the beads are present in the lung and compare the results with the pre-therapy imaging.

NCT06430983
The goal of this observational study is to determine if a specific protein can serve as a novel indicator for the recurrence of liver cancer. The study will focus on recurrent liver cancer patients and compare participants to primary liver cancer patients as controls. The primary purpose is to assess whether the elevated levels of this protein can be used to monitor the recurrence of liver cancer. The main questions it aims to answer are: Is the levels of the protein significantly elevated in recurrent liver cancer patients compared to primary liver cancer patients? Can the protein be used as a reliable biomarker for the early detection of liver cancer recurrence? Researchers will compare the protein levels in the following groups: 50 recurrent liver cancer patients (training set) with abnormally high levels of the protein. 250 recurrent liver cancer patients (validation set) to confirm the protein's elevation in a separate cohort. Participants will be required to: * Provide blood samples for protein analysis. * Undergo regular follow-up visits for monitoring and data collection. * Allow access to their medical records for relevant clinical information.

The main aim is to evaluate progression free survival following embolization in this study population or evaluate residual hepatic volume in cases in which these techniques are used to induce liver regeneration. This study is an observational registry - all patients will follow their normal therapeutic and treatment scheme as per clinical practice, without any additional intervention.
NCT06325267
Primary liver cancer (PLC) is the sixth most common malignancy in the world and the third most common cause of malignancy death. In 2020, there were about 905,677 new cases of PLC worldwide, and 830,180 deaths. Despite the availability of a variety of treatments for PLC, the 5-year net survival rate is still only 5% to 30%. How to effectively reduce the disease burden of PLC is a major public health problem that needs to be solved worldwide. The clinical characteristics and prognosis of PLC caused by different pathogenic factors are different. Therefore, it is of great significance to fully identify the risk factors of PLC, be familiar with the clinical characteristics and prognosis of disease development, and understand the relevant monitoring and follow-up strategies for the prevention and treatment of PLC.

NCT05118451
Primary liver cancer is the most common malignant tumor of the liver. Radical surgery is the preferred treatment, but its 5-year recurrence rate is as high as 70%, which is often associated with incomplete surgical resection and residual tumor. Since the 21st century, with the rapid development of surgery and new science and technology, the diagnosis and treatment of liver diseases have been closely linked with imaging diagnostics, biomedical engineering, molecular imaging technology, computer science and other interdisciplinary subjects. Three-dimensional (3D) visualization technology is one of the emerging auxiliary diagnosis and treatment methods. It plays an important role in accurate diagnosis, surgical planning and surgical navigation of primary liver cancer, and can effectively improve the success rate of surgery and reduce the incidence of postoperative complications. Its diagnostic and treatment value in primary liver cancer is mainly reflected in :(1) to clarify the spatial location relationship of abdominal space occupying lesions, understand the relationship between space occupying lesions and surrounding tissues, important blood vessels and cavities, judge tumor resectable, and make preoperative planning for tumor classification and surgical resection scope. (2) Calculation of individual liver segmentation and liver volume based on the topological relationship of blood flow 4. 3D simulation software was used to automatically calculate the resectioned liver volume and residual liver volume with statistical correlation, which was helpful to judge the probability of liver failure after liver cancer. (3) Variation of hepatic artery, portal vein and bile duct can be found, and the variation of duct can be evaluated by three-dimensional model, including whether there is contact, length of contact, whether there is stenosis in lumen, etc., especially the resectable ability of tumor patients can be evaluated by 3D and real-time dynamic navigation during surgery.
NCT01643499
This study is being done to determine the dose of a chemotherapy drug (irinotecan \[irinotecan hydrochloride\]) that can be tolerated as part of a combination of drugs. There is a combination of chemotherapy drugs often used to treat gastrointestinal cancer, which consists of 5-FU (fluorouracil), leucovorin (leucovorin calcium), irinotecan and oxaliplatin and is known as "FOLFIRINOX". FOLFIRINOX is a current drug therapy combination (or regimen) used for people with advanced pancreatic cancer, although this combination is not Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved for this indication. FOLFIRINOX was recently shown in a separate clinical trial to increase survival compared to another commonly used drug in pancreatic cancer called gemcitabine. FOLFIRINOX is also a reasonable regimen for those with other advanced cancers of the gastrointestinal tract, including colon cancer, rectal cancer, esophagus cancer, stomach cancer, gall bladder cancer, bile duct cancer, ampullary cancer, and cancers with an unknown primary location. The best dose of irinotecan to use in FOLFIRINOX is not known. This study will analyze one gene (uridine 5'-diphospho \[UDP\] glucuronosyltransferase 1 family, polypeptide A1 \[UGT1A1\] gene) of subjects for the presence of an alteration in that gene, which may affect how the body handles irinotecan. Genes help determine some of the investigators individual characteristics, such as eye color, height and skin tone. Genes may also determine why people get certain diseases and how medicines may affect them. The result of the genetic analysis will divide subjects into one of three groups: A, B, or C. Group A (approximately 45% of subjects) will receive the standard dose of irinotecan. Group B (approximately 45% of subjects) will receive a lower dose of irinotecan. Group C (approximately 10% of subjects) will receive an even lower dose of irinotecan
