About this study

Official title: Construction of a Recurrence Risk Prediction Model for Liver Resection Based on Drug Sensitivity of Patient-derived Liver Cancer Organoid

Liver cancer is the sixth most common malignant tumor worldwide and the third leading cause of cancer-related deaths. China is a high-risk area for liver cancer, accounting for approximately 55% of primary liver cancer worldwide. Liver cancer is highly malignant and easy to recur, which seriously endangers the life and health of our people. Hepatectomy is the preferred treatment for liver cancer, but the 5-year recurrence rate remains as high as 70%, severely limiting the effectiveness of the surgery. Therefore, exploring the risk factors and predictive methods for early tumor recurrence after liver resection in patients has high clinical value. Clinical practice has found that primary liver cancer patients can be treated with postoperative adjuvant transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) to prevent recurrence. However, the effectiveness of TACE varies among patients and may be related to tumor heterogeneity. However, many studies have reported that drug sensitivity testing based on patient derived organoids can indicate the clinical efficacy of drugs, but there is currently no relevant research indicating that organoids can reflect the therapeutic response of TACE. Therefore, the aim of this study is to explore the correlation between patient derived organoid drug sensitivity testing results and TACE treatment responsiveness and tumor recurrence, and further construct a column chart model to predict tumor recurrence after adjuvant TACE.

What participants receive

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

  • in vitro (chemotherapy)Drug

    resuscitating PDTO from the organoid biobank, patients were categorized into drug-sensitive and drug-resistant groups based on the optimal cutoff value for PDTO drug testing. We then followed up to analyze the correlation between PDTO drug testing and RFS.

  • Adjuvant TACE(Adjuvant Transarterial Chemoembolization)Device

    Adjuvant TACE was performed 4 to 8 weeks postoperatively, with a chemotherapy regimen of 50 mg of doxorubicin and 50 mg of oxaliplatin.

drug-sensitive groupOrganoid resistance and sensitivity are indicated by an IC50 value ≥23.815 μmol/L and < 23.815 μmol/L, respectively. According to the PDTO drug testing, 42 patients were classified into the drug-sensitive group, and 80 patients into the drug-resistant group。

What is being measured

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

  1. Recurrence free survival

    Recurrence within two years post-surgery was classified as early recurrence.

    Measured: Follow-up was performed at least every 2 months during the first 6 months after adjuvant TACE, and every 3 months for the subsequent 18 months. The follow-up period ended in September 2024

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Hepatocellular Carcinoma, run by Shen Feng 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?

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: under way, not looking for participants, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 Nov 2024. 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?

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?

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?

Recurrence free survival (time frame: Follow-up was performed at least every 2 months during the first 6 months after adjuvant TACE, and every 3 months for the subsequent 18 months. The follow-up period ended in September 2024). 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 21 Nov 2024.
