简要总结
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of PI-88 to inhibit or reduce tumor recurrence in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma following hepatectomy.
详细描述
Although early diagnosis and treatment improve survival, hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is rarely cured and recurs frequently after regional therapy or transplantation. Hepatic resection can improve 5-year recurrence-free survival by up to 25%. Micrometastases of HCC have been detected by molecular techniques in 88% of patients at the time of surgery, and probably cause postoperative recurrence. Efforts to reduce the risk of recurrence after a curative resection have been tried, including various regimens of adjuvant and neoadjuvant therapy.
In this study , an anti-angiogenic agent, PI-88, is being used as an adjuvant therapy for HCC patients after curative hepatic resection. The efficacy endpoints, including tumour non-recurrence rate, time to first recurrence and 1-year survival rate are being evaluated. Several risk factors associated with tumour recurrence are also being analysed.
