Radiofrequency Ablation Combined With Recombinant Human Adenovirus Type 5 in the Treatment of Hepatocellular Carcinoma.

October 15, 2019 updated by: fengkai, Southwest Hospital, China

Radiofrequency Ablation Combined With Local Injection of Recombinant Human Adenovirus Type 5 in the Treatment of Hepatocellular Carcinoma:A Multicenter Prospective Randomized Controlled Trial.

The primary reason for recurrence of hepatocellular carcinoma after radiofrequency ablation (RFA) is the micro-metastatic lesion that has not been ablated and inactivated in the transitional area.Some clinical trials have confirmed that H101(recombinant human adenovirus type 5 injection) has selective oncolysis in a variety of solid tumors.However, there are no reports that H101 which is injected during surgery can improve the efficacy of RFA in liver cancer at present.Therefore,We used a multicenter prospective randomized controlled study as the main method to prospectively compare the short-term and long-term efficacy of RFA combined with H101 group and traditional RFA group in the treatment of small liver cancer (single lesion , diameter less than or equal to 3cm，to evaluate the value of RFA combined with H101 injection in reducing the postoperative recurrence rate of small hepatocellular carcinoma, and to provide a reliable evidence-based medical basis for the selection of treatment methods for small hepatocellular carcinoma.

Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

The primary reason for recurrence of hepatocellular carcinoma after radiofrequency ablation (RFA) is the micro-metastatic lesion that has not been ablated and inactivated in the transitional area.Oncolytic virus H101 is a genetically engineered adenovirus that lacks Elb 55ku protein.Some clinical trials have confirmed that H101 has selective oncolysis in a variety of solid tumors.Furthermore,research shows that the directly dissolving tumor activity of H101 enhanced obviously and activate the body's anti-tumor immune to induce the distal antitumor effect under the condition of mild high temperature (40 ℃ and 42 ℃).The transition zone of RFA can provide the appropriate mild high temperature.However, there are no reports that H101 which is injected during surgery can improve the efficacy of RFA in liver cancer at present.Therefore,We used a multicenter prospective randomized controlled study as the main method to prospectively compare the short-term and long-term efficacy of RFA combined with H101 group and traditional RFA group in the treatment of small liver cancer (single lesion , diameter less than or equal to 3cm，to evaluate the value of RFA combined with H101 injection in reducing the postoperative recurrence rate of small hepatocellular carcinoma, and to provide a reliable evidence-based medical basis for the selection of treatment methods for small hepatocellular carcinoma.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Tumor-free survival
Time Frame: two-years tumor-free survival.
Postoperative tumor-free survival is an evaluation of tumor recurrence and metastasis.It's also an evaluation of the efficacy of the experimental group
two-years tumor-free survival.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
