What is being measured

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

  1. Disease control rate (DCR) for target lesions 1 month after the last TACE treatment

    Target lesions were evaluated according to the modified Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (mRECIST) criteria.

    Measured: 1 month after last TACE treatment

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Visualization score of embolic area

    Evaluation will be performed, based on CBCT images after the first TACE treatment, or CT plain images after the last TACE treatment as follow: 3 points: dense imaging (imaging area >75% of tumor area); 2 points: mixed imaging (imaging area 25%-75% of tumor area); 1 point: weak imaging (imaging area <25% of tumor area); 0 point: not visible (no imaging in the tumor area).

    Measured: Immediately, 1 day, 1 month after first TACE treatment, and 1 month, 3 months, or 6 months since the last TACE treatment

  2. Embolization success rate of target lesions

    Defined as the number of successful embolizations for the target lesions / the total number of participants ×100%.

    Measured: Immediately after each TACE treatment

  3. Equipment performance evaluation

    Includes,the visualization performance of the microspheres on the fluoroscopy or cone-beam CT imaging; whether the microspheres can be easy pushed and pass through the catheter smoothly; whether the micro-catheter will be blocked during the process of pushing and releasing?

    Measured: From the begin to immediately after each TACE treatment

  4. Disease control rate (DCR) for target lesions

    Target lesions will be evaluated according to the modified Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (mRECIST), based on the enhanced CT/MRI (liver) images.

    Measured: 1 month after the first TACE treatment, and 3 months after the last TACE treatment

  5. Objective response rate(ORR)

    Target lesions will be evaluated according to the modified Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (mRECIST), based on the enhanced CT/MRI (liver) images.

    Measured: 1 month after the first TACE treatment and 1 month, 3 months since the last TACE treatment

  6. Number of TACE treatments for target lesions

    Totel times of TACE treatments for all target lesions

    Measured: 6 month since the last TACE treatment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing DEB-TACE with visualable microspheres and DEB-TACE with PVA microspheres in people with Hepatocellular Carcinoma, run by Zhongda Hospital at 2 sites 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 4 inclusion and 11 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 Jan 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Contact Hai-Dong Zhu (+86-25-83272121, zhuhaidong9509@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Disease control rate (DCR) for target lesions 1 month after the last TACE treatment (time frame: 1 month after last TACE treatment). 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 12 Jan 2024.
