About this study

Official title: a Randomized Controlled Study of Surgical Comprehensive Treatment for Different Types of Tumor Thrombi in the Portal Vein for Hepatocellular Carcinoma Patients

This study is working to evaluate the surgical comprehensive treatment for different types of tumor thrombi in the portal vein for hepatocellular carcinoma patients, to establish a standardized, unified, effective therapeutic program.

Read the detailed description

Primary liver cancer (PLC) has a great tendency to invade portal vein intravascularly, results in the formation of portal vein tumor thrombus (PVTT), which is a crucial factor that can worsen the prognosis of patients with PLC.

In clinical, various treatments have been applied to improve this short-term prognosis, but there was no identical indication for treatment of PLC patients with different PVTT.

The objective of this study is to evaluate the surgical comprehensive treatment for different types of tumor thrombi in the portal vein for hepatocellular carcinoma patients, to establish a standardized, unified, effective therapeutic program.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing chemotherapy with endostar, treatment with CBP and 5-FU and treatment with endostar, CBP and 5-FU in people with Hepatocellular Carcinoma and Portal Vein Tumor Thrombus, run by Eastern Hepatobiliary Surgery Hospital 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 7 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 1 Apr 2016. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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?

overall survival (time frame: 2010). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 1 Apr 2016.
