About this study

Official title: LifePearl Anthracyclin Registry in Selective Chemo-Embolization of Patients With Unresectable Hepacellular Carcinoma

The main purpose of this registry is to assess liver toxicity, treatment efficacy, and safety of DEB-TACE using anthracyclin loaded LifePearls for treatment of patients with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma allocated to TACE treatment.

Read the detailed description

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the fifth most common type of cancer in men and the eight in women and is the third most common cause of death from cancer worldwide. The overall incidence of HCC remains high in developing countries and is steadily rising in most industrialized countries.

Available treatment options depend on the size, number, and location of tumors; degree of cirrhosis, if present; and comorbidities; overall performance status; patency of portal vein; and presence of metastatic disease. They include surgical (liver resection, liver transplantation), medical (e.g. sorafenib…), ablative (ethanol ablation, radiofrequency ablation, cryoablation) and intra-arterial (chemoembolization, radioembolization) modalities.

Trans Arterial Chemo-Embolization (TACE) with various drugs (anthracyclines being among the most commonly used ones) has been an important therapeutic option for treatment of patients with intermediate stage HCC according to BCLC/EORTC guidelines (REF). In order to maximize therapeutic efficacy of TACE, chemotherapy loadable beads were developed allowing to lower systemic toxicity of chemotherapy, to deliver high and sustained chemotherapy concentration to the tumor, and to prolong delivery of drug and embolization to the tumor.

The purpose of this registry is to evaluate liver and systemic toxicity, treatment efficacy, and safety of Drug Elutable Beads -TACE using anthracyclin loaded Life-Pearls -TACE for unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • DEB-TACE using anthracyclin loaded LifePearl™Device

    The main purpose of this registry is to assess liver toxicity, treatment efficacy, and safety of DEB-TACE using anthracyclin loaded LifePearl™ for treatment of patients with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma allocated to TACE treatment at multidisciplinary tumor board.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Liver toxicity assessment based on routine CT scans

    Measured: 12 months

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Liver toxicity assessment based on routine blood tests: liver enzymes, phosphatase alkaline, GGT, CBC, bilirubin, albumin. Number of participants with changes in liver function related to TACE treatment.

    Measured: 12 months

  2. Treatment efficacy based on response rate assessed by mRECIST criteria

    Measured: 3 months after final TACE

  3. Treatment efficacy based on response rate assessed by RECIST 1.1 criteria

    Measured: 3 months after final TACE

  4. Safety based on recorded SAE assessed by CTCAE v4.03

    Measured: 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Hepatocellular Carcinoma, run by Terumo Europe N.V. at 7 sites in 2 countries.

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 1 inclusion and 1 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 Jan 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 7 sites in France, Belgium. 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?

Liver toxicity assessment based on routine CT scans (time frame: 12 months). 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 NCT03053596, 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 Jan 2020.
