About this study

The primary objective of this study was to assess the safety and feasibility of split liver transplantation(SLT) for adult hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients, while comparing the prognostic disparities between adult SLT and WLT also .

Liver transplantation (LT) is an effective treatment for end-stage liver disease. As a traditional marginal donor liver, the application of SLT in pediatric patients is successful.However, its application in adult liver transplantation, especially in HCC patients, remains controversial.

This retrospective study analyze outcomes among adults who underwent SLT and whole liver transplantation (WLT) at two centers from January 2018 to August 2022. A 1:1 propensity score matching (PSM) analysis was performed based on important donor and recipient variables. Baseline characteristics and postoperative outcomes of the above recipients were analyzed and compared. Statistical significance was determined using a two-sided p-value threshold of less than 0.05.

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.

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?

Postoperative complications were evaluated by postoperative imaging reports and serological indicators (time frame: Jan.1 2018-Dec.31 2022). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 11 Apr 2024.
