简要总结
This Phase II Prospective, parallel and open-label randomised control trial will investigate whether a radiotherapy technique (called SABR) can treat early stage liver cancer more effectively than current treatments which use heating probes directly inserted into the tumour or chemotherapy or radioactive particles injected into the blood supply of the tumour. Investigators hypothesize SABR will result in higher rates of freedom from local progression (FFLP) at 2 years compared to percutaneous thermal ablation ± TACE or transarterial therapies (TACE/TARE).The study will also look at other important outcomes such as progression free survival, overall survival, side effects, quality of life and people's experiences of their treatment.
详细描述
The SOCRATES randomised controlled trial will assess the efficacy, toxicity, HRQoL profile and cost effectiveness of SABR compared to the current SOC treatment in patients with first diagnosis of unresectable, single nodule HCC. Participants will be placed into one of two groups based on the size of their tumour and whether thermal ablation is an appropriate treatment for them. The study will include about 218 participants in total. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either SABR or the current standard of care. Standard care may include thermal ablation, transarterial chemoembolisation (TACE), or transarterial radioembolisation (TARE).
