About this study

Official title: A RCT Study of Laparoscopic Middle Hepatic Vein Guidance and Traditional Anatomic Hemihepatectomy

The study, entitled "RCT study of laparoscopic middle hepatic venous guidance versus conventional ananatomical hemihepatectomy", was designed to compare the efficacy of two different ananatomical hemihepatectomy procedures under laparoscopy.

Read the detailed description

Backgroud \& Aim:Hepatectomy is the main way to treat all kinds of liver surgical diseases, which can be divided into anatomic hepatectomy and non-anatomic hepatectomy.Among them, anatomic hepatectomy is suitable for primary liver cancer, hepatolithiasis and other benign and malignant diseases;It can be divided into hepatic venous guidance and non-hepatic venous guidance hepatectomy (traditional ananatomical hepatectomy).The aim of this study was to observe and compare the perioperative period and follow-up results of the two different laparoscopic surgical resection methods, and to provide high-level evidence-based medicine evidence for the selection of surgical methods for laparoscopic anatomical hemihepatectomy.

Being tested
laparoscopic middle hepatic vein guidance anatomic hemihepatectomy
Keywords
Laparoscopic Middle hepatic vein Hepatocellular carcinoma
Medical subject headings

What participants receive

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

  • laparoscopic middle hepatic vein guidance anatomic hemihepatectomyProcedure or surgery

    Also called laparoscopic traditional anatomic hemihepatectomy

    95 patients with primary HCC were divided into the middle hepatic vein guidance group(n=45) and the traditional group(n=45) according to the odd and even Numbers, and sealed into envelopes.Outcomes were monitored and evaluated during the 3-year follow-up period

Study groups in NCT04422249
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
laparoscopic middle hepatic vein guidance hemihepatectomyExperimentalIn theory, the advantages of anatomical hemihepatectomy guided by middle hepatic vein are as follows: 1) correctly guiding the transecting plane of the liver parenchyma can reduce the cross-sectional area of the liver and avoid damaging the vascular ducts of the pre-cut liver. so as to reduce the residue of necrotic tissue without blood supply and reduce the occurrence of postoperative complications. 2) active anatomy and exposure of hepatic vein can avoid uncontrollable bleeding after passive injury of hepatic vein, and laparoscopic anatomy has obvious advantage in exposing hepatic vein. 3) it may reduce the early recurrence rate of hepatocellular carcinoma after operation.
Receives: Procedure: laparoscopic middle hepatic vein guidance anatomic hemihepatectomy
laparoscopic traditional anatomic hemihepatectomyActive comparatorAccording to textbooks and the views of some scholars at present, traditional anatomical hepatectomy (non-hepatic vein-guided anatomical hepatectomy) has the following advantages: 1) avoiding exposure of hepatic vein can reduce the probability of injury to the trunk of hepatic vein, thus reduce the risk of massive bleeding during operation; 2) the difficulty of operation is relatively low, and a better short-term and long-term effect can be obtained.

What is being measured

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

  1. Survival rate

    follow-up after the surgery every 3 months, to understand statistics 1-year overall survival、3-year overall survival、1-year disease-free survival、3-year disease-free survival

    Measured: 3 years

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Perioperative results

    the angle of hepatic vein between segment Ⅳ b and Ⅴ, angle between MHV and IVC

    Measured: Duration perioperation(an expected average of 3 days)

  2. intraoperative parameters

    blood loss per unit area will be combined to report intraoperative parameters in milliliter/square centimetre(ml/c㎡)

    Measured: during the operation

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing laparoscopic middle hepatic vein guidance anatomic hemihepatectomy 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 5 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 26 Dec 2023. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Shuguo Zheng, M.D. (0086-13508308676, shuguozh@yahoo.com.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Survival rate (time frame: 3 years). 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 26 Dec 2023.
