Clinical Study of MRD Recurrence Monitoring After Surgical Resection of Hepatocellular Carcinoma

July 10, 2022 updated by: Anhui Provincial Hospital
ctDNA-based liquid biopsy can better detect the presence of MRD before imaging and serological markers, and is suitable for postoperative MRD and recurrence monitoring, which has been clinically validated in several cancer types such as lung cancer and intestinal cancer. However, there is no systematic comparative study of postoperative MRD and recurrence monitoring based on ctDNA testing in hepatocellular carcinoma. A prospective multicenter observational clinical study is proposed to evaluate the use of liquid biopsy based on ctDNA NGS assay in surgical evaluation, MRD and molecular recurrence state monitoring after radical resection of hepatocellular carcinoma, and to compare with imaging and serological findings with the aim of early detection of disease recurrence or metastasis and more survival benefits for patients.

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

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.

  5. having received any systemic antineoplastic therapy prior to initiation of study treatment with approved
  6. has received blood transfusion, radiotherapy, or drug therapy within 1 month prior to enrollment.
  7. untreated active hepatitis C (patients with positive anti-HCV antibodies or positive HCV RNA cannot be enrolled); untreated active hepatitis B (HBsAg positive and HBV DNA ≥ 2000 IU/mL).
