About this study

Official title: The Effect of Ischemia/Reperfusion Injuries Elicited by Pringle Manoeuvre on the Prognosis of HCC Patients After Curative Excision:A Multicenter Prospective Randomized Controlled Trial

This is a multi-centre prospective randomized controlled trial to explore the influence of ischemia-reperfusion injuries elicited by pringle manoeuvre during radical excision on the prognosis of Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC) patients.

Read the detailed description

Until now there are two popular procedures during the radical excision of primary liver cancer in our country.One is to give a pringle manoeuvre to control the operative blood loss,the other is using a combination of CUSA and Tissue-link to control the bleeding while without liver ischemia.According to the recent experimental studies in rats,we know that the ischemia and reperfusion injury may contribute to the metastasis of the tumor.In order to test the actual contribution of ischemia on human,we conduct this prospective clinical trial to compare the two popular procedures' effect on the prognosis of liver cancer patients undergoing radical excision.

Being tested
curative resection without Pringle, curative resection with Pringle manoeuvre
Keywords
ischemia, liver cancer, radical excision, prognosis
Medical subject headings
Carcinoma, Hepatocellular, Ischemia, Liver Neoplasms

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing curative resection without Pringle and curative resection with Pringle manoeuvre in people with Hepatocellular Carcinoma, run by Southwest Hospital, China at 1 site in China.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 6 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 27 Nov 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Disease free survival (time frame: 1,3,5-year). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00725335, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 27 Nov 2012.
