简要总结
RATIONALE: Radiofrequency ablation uses a high-frequency, electric current to kill tumor cells. CT-, MRI-, or ultrasound-guided radiofrequency ablation may be an effective treatment for liver cancer and cirrhosis.
PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well radiofrequency ablation works in treating patients with liver cancer and cirrhosis.
详细描述
OBJECTIVES:
Primary
- Determine the 18-month successful disease control rate, defined as no identifiable liver tumor by CT scan, in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma and cirrhosis treated with solitary or repetitive percutaneous radiofrequency ablation (RFA).
Secondary
- Correlate tumor size, MELD score, and the number of RFA treatments (solitary or repetitive) with the 18-month successful disease control rate in patients treated with this procedure.
- Determine the local and remote intrahepatic and extrahepatic tumor recurrence rates in patients treated with this procedure.
- Correlate local and remote intrahepatic and extrahepatic tumor recurrence rates with the 18-month successful disease control rate in patients treated with this procedure.
- Correlate tumor size with the local disease control rate in patients treated with this procedure.
- Correlate solitary or repetitive RFA with or without local/regional tumor control with the development of extrahepatic tumor in these patients.
- Determine the local tumor eradication rate, as determined by examination of whole liver specimens or CT scan, in patients treated with this procedure.

结局指标
主要结局
Proportion of Participants With Successful Control of Disease at 18 Months
时间窗: 18 months after start of therapy
Outcome is positive (success) if alive and no disease is observed by CT at 18 months post start of therapy Outcome is negative if the patient was deceased or disease was observed by CT at 18 months post start of therapy Success rate it the fraction of eligible patients who were alive and disease free at 18 months.
次要结局
- Local Tumor Recurrence (Control) Rates(18 months after start of therapy)
- Number of Participants With Success in Those Who Received Solitary vs Repetitive Radiofrequency Ablation(18 months after start of therapy)
- Effect of Tumor Size on Successful Control of Disease at 18 Months(18 months after start of therapy)
- Impact of Tumor Size on Local Control Rates(18 months after start of therapy)
- Development of Extra-hepatic Tumor(18 months after start of therapy)
- Local Tumor Eradication Rate by Examination of Liver Via Autopsy or Transplant vs That Determined by CT Scan(18 months after start of therapy)
- Remote Tumor Occurrence Rates(18 months after start of therapy)
