Biomarkers and Molecular Mechanism Study of Hepatocellular Carcinoma After Radical Resection and Conversion Therapy

March 23, 2025 updated by: Shanghai Zhongshan Hospital
Blood samples will be tested to identify circulating tumor DNA and plasma protein levels to potentially improve prediction of long term prognosis and guide treatment options of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma underwent surgical resection.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Correlation between ctDNA level and recurrence-free survival (RFS)
Time Frame: 1 years
ctDNA measurements will be made at baseline and 1 months, 3 months, 6 months, 12 months after surgery. RFS will be assessed by standard radiographic imaging.
1 years
Correlation between specific plasma protein expression level and recurrence-free survival (RFS)
Time Frame: 1 years
plasma proteomic measurements will be made at baseline and 1 months, 3 months, 6 months, 12 months after surgery. RFS will be assessed by standard radiographic imaging.
1 years

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Correlation between tumor mutation numbers and recurrence-free survival (RFS)
Time Frame: 1 years
Patients with available tumor tissues were sequenced to identify their specific tumor variants.The correlation of mutation numbers and RFS will be analysis.
